Free Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions 3-Step Sample Kit


Free Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions 3-Step Sample Kit
Clinique lovers rejoice! Capital FM are giving away Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions 3-Step sample kits. The kit contains the anti-blemish soap, lotion and moisturiser so would make a lovely little gift for a Clinique obsessed friend or for yourself. It's really simple to get, just enter your details and they'll send it straight to you and if they run out of this particular offer they will gift you something else instead. I'm so glad they are doing this, I love their Dramatically Different Moisturising Lotion but its too expensive to try out the rest of their range.

If you aren't already, sign up to 10 Ways on Facebook, they have amazing money saving offers everyday.

Heartbleed Bug: What should you do?!

Heartbleed Bug
I don't usually do tech posts (even though I'm geeky and love how computers work) but this is really important because you need to protect yourself against the 'Heartbleed Bug' which has come to light recently. The Heartbleed Bug is a flaw with encryption. I'm sure you've seen those world war 2 spy movies where they send secret messages using a special code, well encryption is like that. It's like a secret language a website uses to talk to your computer which technically no one else should be able to understand. With heartbleed this process is flawed and allows people who shouldn't be able to to read some of the secret information about you which is stored by websites, so things like login details may be compromised.

This message code remains uncracked 70 years later!
The problem has affected a lot of websites but most have been able to patch (fix) the problem. The advice out there is to change all your passwords, but you should only do this once you know the problem has been fixed on the particular site you are using. mashable.com has produced comprehensive, if rather Americo-centric, list of websties which have or have not fixed the bug so be sure to check that out and change your passwords accordingly.

I hope you've found this helpful!

Mr Printables: 3D Alphabet Templates


How cute are these 3D letters from Mr Printables?! They've created a set of templates available on PDF with all the letters of the alphabet - and best of all it's completely free to download from their website!

These are perfect creating a feature in your home and so cost effective as well. I adore those wooden words and letters you can buy but with these you can print out any letters and make up our own words. These would also be a great craft for kids! So why not have a go, I'll be making some with glittered cardboard because I love a bit of glitter.
