<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The label 'cruelty-free</span></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">' is often used as a marketing tool & unfortunately there are no legal regulations to support what should be an ethical stance. This means that whilst one company claims that their products are cruelty-free because there has been no animal testing at any stage of production, on the contrary, another brand can claim that their products are cruelty free, purely because the final product has not been tested on animals. This is why it's important not to take 'not tested on animal' claims at face value. Many third parties offer this information, but I feel more comfortable contacting a company directly. In order to determine whether or not a brand is truly cruelty free, there are a number of questions which ought to be considered. </span><br />
</div>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br />
❀ Is the finished product tested on animals on behalf of the brand, the parent company, or an affiliate company or third party?</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">❀ Are the ingredients used within the product tested on animals on behalf of the brand, a parent company, or an affiliate company or third party?</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">❀ Does the brand; a parent company, or an affiliate company or third party sell the brands products in any region/country where animal testing is required by local laws or regulations?</span><br />

A product can be labeled as 'cruelty-free' or not tested on animals if the finished product has not been tested on animals. It does not take into the consideration that at any stage of production individual ingredients may have been tested on animals.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The majority of animal testing occurs at the ingredients stage of production. A company can legally claim that they do not test on animals, if they themselves do not. However, the company may contract a third party to do the testing on their behalf - or the third party may do so without the brands consent.</span><br />

</span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<b><span style="font-size: large;">Admittedly,</span> </b>I'm still playing catch-up with my Photo365, however if you follow me on<a href="http://www.instagram.com/pixee_pea"> Instagram</a>,<br />
you can see my daily progress!<br />
<br />
<b>019: Wreck This Journal</b><br />
I decided it was time to face my demons & begin my Wreck This Journal. I actually bought it last summer, however I was putting it off due to the fact that even the idea of cracking the spine made me shudder -<br />
I decided it was time to get over myself & just get on with it!<br />
<br />
<b>020:Alcoholic Dandelion & Burdock</b><br />
This was beautiful & I suggest you try it for yourself!<br />
<br />
<b>021: My 'current' Favourite Soup</b><br />
My 'current' favourite Pret soup is Butternut Squash & Sage - it's a staple part of my diet...<br />
<br />
<b>022: A much needed soak...</b><br />
It had been a long day & I totally needed this bath.<br />
<br />
<b>023: Victory!</b><br />
I finally found an opportunity to use my Tea-Rex, he's no longer just an ornament!<br />
<br />
<b>024: METAL HAMMER!</b><br />
The perfect opportunity to put my feet up & have a good read...<br />
I love discovering new music.<br />
<br />
<b>025: Sheepy Socks...</b><br />
<i>happy sock = happy feet</i><br />
<br />
<b>026: Poorly Pea</b><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>If you follow me on Twitter,</b> </span><span style="font-size: small;">you'll know that I'm working on a feature about <span style="color: magenta;"><b>ethical pet food</b><span style="color: black;">, my research is well underway however, I have decided to break the animal tested brands into smaller groups... <b>Mars</b>, who are most commonly known for their confectionery also offer 10 pet-food brands. In my opinion, it's hypocritical to promote animal welfare, whilst using animals to conduct cruel experiments. Overall, my feature will look at both the ethics of the brands & the content of the food. </span></span></span>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Here's a great recipe for vegan cupcakes.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i> I took my recipe one step further because one of my colleagues is celiac. </i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Makes 12</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
150g/6oz dairy free spread/margarine </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
150g/6oz sugar </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
150g/6oz SR flour - <i><span style="color: blue;">I used Doves Farm, Gluten Free</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3 heaped tsp Orgran No Egg mixed with 6 tbsp water </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1 tsp vanilla extract<br />
~*~ <br />
Cupcake Cases<br />
Muffin Tin <br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Instructions </b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{01} Cream the spread & sugar together until light & fluffy</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{02} Add the remaining ingredients & mix until they're combined</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{03} Using a spoon, distribute the mix between 12 cupcake cases</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{04} Bake at 180C/170 Fan/350F/Gas Mark 4 for approximately 20minutes</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{05} Cool on a wire rack<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Vegan Butter Icing</b><br />
50g/2oz dairy free spread/margarine</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
100g/4oz icing sugar</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1tsp vanilla extra</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1-2 tbsp boiled water </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<b>Instructions</b></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{01} Soften the spread</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{02} Add the vanilla</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
{03} Beat in the icing sugar gradually adding the boiling water to soften the mixture</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Note: Don't open the oven to check the cakes until after 15minutes, because the egg-replacer takes longer to set than eggs - <i>we don't want soggy bottoms & sinking cakes.</i><br />
<br />
<b>I'm not gonna lie, I was really pleased with how these cakes turned out! </b><br />
<i>If you want to make the chocolate icing, just add 1tsp of cocoa powder.</i><b><br /><br />Happy Baking!</b><br />
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Earlier this month</b>, </span>I subscribed to <span style="color: lime;"><b>The Vegan Kind</b></span>, monthly subscription box. I was over the moon, when I discovered a monthly box where the contents are both <span style="color: magenta;">vegan</span> & <span style="color: magenta;">cruelty free</span> - <i>it's about time! </i><span style="color: lime;"><b>The Vegan Kind </b></span>is reasonably priced at £10 plus P&P (£2.95) & is shipped within the first 4 working days of the month. Each box will contain 5-8 products & the RRP is guaranteed to be more than £10. Not only this, with each box, <span style="color: magenta;"><i>10p will be donated to the featured animal charity of the month</i></span> & each month you will be given a collectable recipe card. The products included range from: Accessories,
Foods,
Toiletries,
Cosmetics,
Cleaning Products,
Household supplies,
Recipe Card- <b>I really like the versatility of the box. </b><br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;"><u><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Here's what's inside my box: </b></span></u></span><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><a href="http://www.pulsin.co.uk/"><span style="font-size: large;">Beond</span> </a>- Organic Acai Berry Bar -<span style="color: cyan;"> 35g - RRP £0.99</span></b> <br />
<i>"Our Beond bars are named after Beo, an ancient God of agriculture. We made this bar from organic ingredients to celebrate traditional farming methods and their importance today in sustaining a balanced ecosystem and providing us with nutritious, healthy food"</i>. Beond are a small ethical company, who are 100% organic & their products contain only the finest natural ingredients. This lovely bar was made using renewable energy. Not only does it taste delicious & is good for the environment, it's a guilt-free treat that's low in fat, low in GI <b>& even better, it gives you 1 of your 5 a day! </b><br />
<b>Raw:: Vegan:: Gluten Free:: Dairy Free:: Soya Free </b><br />
<br />
<b><a href="http://www.perrycourtfarm.co.uk/"><span style="font-size: large;">Perry Court Farm</span></a> - Air Dried Pear Crisps - <span style="color: cyan;">20g - RRP £0.75</span></b><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;">These crisps are made with 100% pure fruit, they have no additives & are naturally air dried, so they're a healthy yet tasty stack. Just like regular crisps, they are crispy and crunchy & I actually really enjoyed them! The pears used in these crisps are hand picked from their farm in Kent & each pack only contains 70calories! </span></span><br />
<b><span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;">I'm contemplating substitute regular crisps with these delicious healthy alternatives. </span></span><span style="color: cyan;"> </span></b><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.consideritchocolate.com/"><span style="font-size: large;">Considerit Chocolate Mini Truffle Bar</span></a> - Orange Flavour - <span style="color: cyan;">RRP £1.90</span></span></span><span style="color: cyan;"> </span></b><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><b><span style="color: black;">First & foremost, this mini truffle bar is delicious! </span></b><span style="color: black;">At Considerit they believe that good quality chocolate should be available to all & this mini truffle bar, was rich & creamy that I seriously recommend trying it! <span style="color: magenta;"><b> </b></span></span></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: magenta;"><b>My only disappointment - there was only one in the box! </b></span></span></span><br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: magenta;"><span style="color: black;"><a href="http://www.clearspring.co.uk/"><span style="font-size: large;">Clearspring Organic</span></a> - Dried Daikon - <span style="color: cyan;">40g - RRP £2.29</span></span></span></span></span></b><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: magenta;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;">At first glance I was rather perplexed by this product, however I'm actually really looking forward to using it... Daikon is a source of Vitamin C, Calcium and Iron & is also known to aid the digestion of oily foods. This product came with cooking instructions, so I shall let you know how I get on...</span></span></span></span></span></span><br />
<b><br /><a href="http://www.landgarten.co.uk/"><span style="font-size: large;">Landgarten</span></a> Organic Dark Chocolate Pumpkin Snack - <span style="color: cyan;">55g - RRP £1.99</span></b><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;">Roasted pumpkin seeds covered with organic, fair-trade dark chocolate<b> - </b>I'm a fan of unusual nibbles & so I'm looking forward to trying these. </span></span><span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;">The seeds are hot-air roasted so that no additional fat added in the process. If they taste as good as the packaging suggests, these could very well become new staple hand-bag snacks!</span></span><br />
<span style="color: cyan;"><span style="color: black;"></span></span><br />
<b><a href="http://www.premaeskincare.co.uk/"><span style="font-size: large;">Premae Skincare</span></a> - Hand & Foot Cream - <span style="color: cyan;">10ml - RRP £3.50</span></b><br />
Premae Skincare are the worlds first allergen-free beauty brand. This hand & foot lotion is hydrating & enriched with vanilla which is both soothing and comforting. This lotion is also great for restoring brittle nails, I'm enjoying using it & curious to try out more from the brand.<br />
<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">One of my <b>14Things//For2014</b></span> was to take part in a <b>Photo365</b>. I wasn't sure how often to upload them, but today I finally made the decision to upload them in batches of 9... Although we're almost 3 weeks in, I'm hoping to catch up with myself over the next couple of uploads.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><b>001: Alt-Festival Flyers </b></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've joined a couple of festival street teams to earn myself exclusive goodies, with the aim <br />
of earning enough points to get my paws on some weekend camping tickets!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>002: Sensationails Gel Deluxe Starter Kit</b></span> </span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
After weeks of searching, I <span data-reactid=".r[4m820].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0]"><span data-reactid=".r[4m820].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[1].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[2][1]"><span data-reactid=".r[4m820].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[1].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[2][1].[0]">finally managed to get my hands on this </span><span data-reactid=".r[4m820].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[1].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[2][1].[2]">❤️ I made a rather hefty <br />unexpected
saving & no longer have to pay the salon costs for gel-nails
anymore - love it!</span></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>003: Fun Sculpting</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I made these cute critters using LUSH's Fun ^__^ </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>004: Super Sweet Bathing</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd had a really busy day at work & really fancied a super-sweet bath to relax.<br />
It was beautiful.<br />
<br />
<b>005: Bottle Green Sparkling Lemongrass & Ginger</b><br />
This is delicious & great if you're feeling run-down..<br />
If you haven't tried it, I recommend that you do!<br />
<br />
<b>006: Little Miracles Organic Energy</b><br />
I made a conscious decision to stop drinking energy drinks<br />
& so I've been drinking these inside, they're really refreshing!<br />
<br />
<b>007: </b><span data-reactid=".r[4fnpo].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0]"><span data-reactid=".r[4fnpo].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[1].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[2][1]"><span data-reactid=".r[4fnpo].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[1].[0].[0].[0].[0].[1].[2][1].[0]"><b>Goma Wakame Salad @ Wagamamas</b><br />I've already had one this month, however I'm seriously craving another..<br />It's so fresh & zingy!</span></span></span><br />

<b>008: Lush Cosmetics Valentines Collection 2014</b><br />
I was certainly wooed by LUSH valentines collection.<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">I</span>t's crazy to think that Christmas has come & gone</b> </span>& now we're moving onto <span style="color: red;"><b>Valentines day</b></span>... That said, I'm not complaining, I love a good excuse for new product launches! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><span style="color: red;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="color: black;"><span style="font-size: large;">Prince Charming</span></span> </span></span>- Shower Gel <span style="color: lime;">VEGAN</span> </b><span style="font-size: x-small;">(£4.65/100g, £9.25/250g, £15.95/100g)</span> <span style="color: purple;"><b>Originally inspired by Adam and The Ants classic</b></span> Prince Charming this shower gel has morphed itself into the kind of Prince Charming we would find within fairy-tales and Disney Classics. It's colour's a rich raspberry pink & it is primarily scented with Marshmallow Root, Fair-Trade Vanilla & fresh Pomegranate juice - <i>it's delicious</i>. In addition to this yummy cocktail, it's scent include grapefruit, geranium oils and sandalwood. Furthermore, this beauty contains almond oil which is extremely moisturising and nourishing for the skin - it'll be sure to sweep you off your feet!<br />
<br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">Inspired by heart-shaped locket necklaces, this bath-bomb contains </span></span>smaller heart-shaped bath bomb, that’s filled with agar hearts to create a romantic spectacle in the bath. This heart can be broken & so the bomb can be used for 3 baths, which is fabulous value for money. It's scented with uplifting neroli, sensual jasmine and sweet fair-trade vanilla absolute - it's a delicious treat either to be shared, or indulged in alone. <br />
<br />
<b></b><span style="font-size: small;"><b><span style="font-size: large;">Neon Love</span> </b></span><b>- Soap <span style="color: lime;">VEGAN</span> </b><span style="font-size: x-small;">(£4.25/100g) </span><span style="font-size: small;">This soap was inspired by <b>'12 Months of Neon Love'</b> an artist collaboration by artists Victoria Lucas & Richard William Wheater. The installation began on Valentines Day 2011 & throughout the year & featured lyrics from famous love songs, which were lit up in huge neon-writing and displayed around the town of Wakefield. Hidden throughout this soap are white hearts, similarly to a stick of rock - not only does it look super pretty, but it ensures that each chuck smells as good as the rest! This soap is scented with an uplifting, fruity fragrance. Bergamot and rosewood work together to create a rich scent, whilst fresh figs, passion fruit juice & soya yoghurt nourish & soften the skin. </span><br />
<br />
<b></b><span style="font-size: large;"><b>The Kiss </b></span><b><span style="font-size: large;">-</span> Lip Gloss <span style="color: lime;">VEGAN</span> </b><span style="font-size: x-small;">(£5.75 per item) <span style="font-size: small;">I'm so happy the Kiss is returning after it's debut last year. This lip gloss is created using the same aerating technique which Lush use for their massage bars, making it light-weight. It's luxurious & contains </span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">protective butters including Fair Trade Shea & Cupuaçu. This
preservative free tinted lip gloss gives a touch of colour to the lips.
It’s so easy to apply you won’t even need a mirror!</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Close To You </b></span><b><span style="font-size: large;">-</span> Massage Bar <span style="color: lime;">VEGAN</span> </b><span style="font-size: x-small;">(£5.50 per item) <span style="font-size: small;">This smooshable massage bar, is inspired by the deliciously & surprisingly vegan Jammy Dodger - it has a soft fondant centre & is scented with Fair Trade Vanilla Absolute, sharing the same scent as Rockstar Soap & Creamy Candy Bubble Bar. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Tender Is The Night </b></span><b><span style="font-size: large;">-</span> Massage Bar <span style="color: lime;">VEGAN</span> </b><span style="font-size: x-small;">(£6.50 per item) <span style="font-size: small;">This sensual massage bar is returning from last year, however it's been reformulated & no longer has a squishy fondant heart. This massage bar is probably one of Lush's most sensual products, scented with a intoxicating blend of Jasmine, Ylang Ylang & Vanilla. </span></span><span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-size: small;">Inspired by F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel Tender is the Night, it's</span></span> enriched with a solid blend of softening shea
butter & murumuru butter.<br />

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhzUlGhbQp_aq6iDwOlGLWxqkkMrKnFKQgZD9sB5D0KsOJu7NguH01_cFn_dNOiRKM7sqEM6oNAkdGXISQNMs4tGA5FS4RkFLao5dgv1wx_XJTWUl57PhGqge7L3NE7wmng8ba23LCunJv/s1600/Beautysets_illamasqua_Illamasqua_Essential_Technique_Set_-_Defined_Brows_26780_1388949497.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhzUlGhbQp_aq6iDwOlGLWxqkkMrKnFKQgZD9sB5D0KsOJu7NguH01_cFn_dNOiRKM7sqEM6oNAkdGXISQNMs4tGA5FS4RkFLao5dgv1wx_XJTWUl57PhGqge7L3NE7wmng8ba23LCunJv/s1600/Beautysets_illamasqua_Illamasqua_Essential_Technique_Set_-_Defined_Brows_26780_1388949497.jpg" height="640" width="530" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Illamasqua:</b> Defined Brows Set <span style="color: purple;">(<span style="color: magenta;"><a href="http://www.illamasqua.com/shop/defined-brows-set">Illamasqua, Eyebrow Cake, Gleam, Angled Brush, £51</a></span>)</span> Defined brows are the key to finishing any make-up look, they frame the face & lift the eye area. Creating a defined, yet not cakey-looking brow takes practice & finding products which work has proved to be a mission - many of the products I've tried have been disappointing & so I'm hoping this collection will become a staple within my make-up bag! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Manic Panic: </b>Violet-Night, High Voltage Hair Colour (<a href="http://www.manic-panic.co.uk/product.php/1008974/6653/manic-panic-classic-semi-permanent-hair-dye-118ml--violet-night-#adtb1">Manic Panic, High Voltage Classic, £10</a>) Purple hair dyes are notoriously difficult to keep <b>purple</b> & having previously used a couple of Manic Panic pinks & being impressed, I'm looking forward to trying this colour.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Sugarpill:</b> Chromalust Loose Eyeshadow (<a href="http://www.cutecosmetics.co.uk/sugarpill-chromalust-loose-eyeshadow-lumi-5501-p.asp">Cutecosmetics, Sugarpill Cosmetics, £8.95</a>) I'm a big fan of fairy-like-shimmering eyeshadows, they make fabulous bases & can also be used to highlight the brow-bone. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Bdellium:</b> Green Bamboo Finishing Brush (<a href="http://www.cutecosmetics.co.uk/bdellium-tools-green-bambu-vegan-955-finishing-brush-1111-p.asp">Cuteecosmetics, Bdellium, £10.95</a>) This brush is said to create the perfect, light finish with being suitable for blending both face-powders & water-based foundations - decent tools are definitely important when creating a flawless look, so I'm looking forward to seeing what different this eco-friendly, vegan brush can make. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Gwdihw: </b>Muscle Soother Body Lotion (<a href="http://www.cutecosmetics.co.uk/gwdihw-muscle-soother-body-lotion-250ml-3437-p.asp">Cutecosmetics, Gwdihw, 250ml, £10.95</a>) I'm always trying to find products which can soothe aching muscles, I spend alot of time on my feet & although my <b>Lush Cosmetics Wiccy Magic Muscles</b> is a Holy Grail product of mine, it's nice to find alternatives. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b>Lush Cosmetics:</b> Turkish Delight (<a href="https://www.lush.co.uk/product/444/Turkish-Delight---200g">Lush Cosmetics, Turkish Delight, 200g, £16.25</a>) Ro's Argan is my ultimate go-to but, I thought it might be nice to try something a little different...

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Good Morning Glameroons,</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought it might be nice to ease my blog into the Festive season with a fairly chilled Christmas Blogger Tag... Please feel free to pinch it for your own post & comment with your links below, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
so we can compare notes! <i>*cheeky-cheeky* </i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What's your favourite thing about autumn/winter? </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wrapping up! I love being able to layer up my clothes without roasting - it's a great excuse to experiment with different styles of tights/socks. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">❄️</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What's your favourite winter drink </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
100% Mulled Wine! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">❄️</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What's your favourite scent/candle?</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm still burning my <b>Witches Brew </b>Yankee candle from Halloween! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">❄️</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What's your favourite lipstick for this time of year?</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I tend to find that my lips become exceptionally dry during the winter months, so I've been using Lush's <span style="color: red;"><b>Santa Baby Lip-Tint </b></span>it's a lovely Christmassy red, it tastes like cola bottles & i<span style="font-size: small;">s</span> rich & moisturising - Love it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>❄️ </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>What's your go-to moisturiser? </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Undoubtedly, <b>Lush's Celestial Moisturiser</b>:
It's soothing; reduces redness & is beautifully vanilla scented. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>
I highly recommend using it!</b> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">❄️</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>What are your go-to colours for the eyes?</b> </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have to say I'm a fan of bright eye make-up throughout the year,
however I'm especially into neon-brights </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
& glitter during the darker months.
<i><span style="color: orange;"><b>
I guess it's for that added little sunshine.</b></span></i> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">❄️ </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What's your favourite music to listen to this autumn/winter? </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't say I change my taste in music throughout the year, but in my car I'm currently listening to:
<span style="color: red;"><b> </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red;"><b>Rob Zombie</b></span> ::Mondo Sex Head </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: red;">Placebo</span> </b>::Black Market Music // Loud Like Love </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: red;"><b>Does It Offend You Yeah? </b></span>::You Have No Idea What You're Letting Yourself In For </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">❄️ </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What's your favourite outfit to wear? </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm a bit of a coat collector, so this is a toughy! <br />
However, the winning item has to be my beautiful <b>faux-fur dalmation coat </b>paired with my purple <b>Hello-Kitty ear-muffs/head-phones </b>- they're a pretty snug combo!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">❄️ </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What is your favourite winter fragrance? </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm a self-confessed fragrance fiend! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week I've been wearing '<span style="color: red;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>Love</b></span></span>' - <b>A Lush, Gorilla Perfume:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Here is how company co-founder Mark Constantine describes it:</b><br />
<b><span style="color: red;">Tempting apples & spice will remind you of everything nice about the exhilaration of romance. </span></b><br />
<i>“Watching my sons fall in and out of love inspired this
perfume, and rather like their relationships, it took quite a while to get
right. It is for flirts really, but being a flirt is not something everyone
wants to be known for. On the other hand, flirting is so much fun. I have tried
to make a perfume that will flirt for you while you pretend indifference. Love
is an instantly bright and bubbly fragrance with a vivacious green apple fruit
scent and sweet citrus innocence. As the initial burst fades, it's replaced
with a sugary sweet apple pie note while maintaining a sharp lift.”</i><br />
<span style="color: red;"><b> I think it's the perfect festive scent!</b></span><i> </i><br />
<div class="notes-list">
<div style="text-align: right;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Main notes:</span> Lemon, lemongrass, <b><span style="color: #38761d;">bergamot, apple, cinnamon</span></b>, cassia, jasmine, rose, ylang ylang</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;">Feels like:</span> that first rush of endorphins</div>
</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">❄️ </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-size: large;">What is your favourite winter food? </span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
mm, a proper good <b>Penne Arribatia </b> <i>(with extra chilli) </i>it's so delicious & warming & although a somewhat less appetising thought, it's great for shifting the sniffles! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">❄️</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">There is no denying </span>that angora wool is beautifully soft & Angora Rabbits are incredibly beautiful animals, which I imagine will instantly make you 'awh'...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Unfortunately </b>this post is quite upsetting & I'm not going to embed the video as it's quite distressing, although I shall post the link below, should you wish to view it. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><b>Angora wool</b></i>, which is more commonly referred to as angora is the super-fluffy coat produced by the Angora Rabbit. Angora is popular for it's incredible softness; thin-fibres & the fact it's much lighter, yet warmer than ewe's wool... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As a vegetarian, the use of angora had never crossed my mind, but since becoming vegan, I have been investigating things further. I have been finding it difficult to find hats & gloves, which are 100% synthetic, but they are out there! The majority of items which I have picked up & thought <i>'ooh that's nice</i>', have turned out to contain angora - so there's no doubt, it's luxurious to the touch. Sadly, behind the luxury, is a very sad tale for the Angora Rabbit. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>So far, over 13,000 people</b> have pledged on PETA's website, never to wear angora again - there must be a darn good reason for this! Angora wool is a material commonly used in <i><b>socks, scarves, hats, gloves & jumper</b></i>s & as you can imagine, it's demand is much greater during the winter months. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Aided with video footage </b>from their investigation of <b>Angora farms in China, where 90%</b> of the worlds angora is produced, PETA were pleased to announce that H&M have decided that they are halting the production of angora products because of the horrific cruelty inflicted upon the rabbits. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The video illustrates</b> the barbaric act of the bunnies having their fur torn from their bodies as they scream in pain. The workers, grab the rabbits & continue to rip their fur until they're left bare & bleeding. Following this, we see the rabbit thrown back into filthy cages. This practice is far from glamorous!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>H&M </b>have previously voiced their decision to keep exotic animal skins & wool obtained from mulesed sheep out of their stores. Although, they will not be immediately removing angora products from their shelves, they will offer customers a refund, if they purchased angora products without realising the cruelty involved. Other Swedish companies, including<b> Lindex, MQ, Acne & Gina Tricot</b> have also halted angora production.<br />
<br />
<b>Having just done a quick search online, </b>it's evident that Marks & Spencer, Accessorize & Topshop are continuing to promote products which contain angora. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is worth bearing this in mind, when you next purchase some winter woolies.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">What's your favourite Halloween movie?</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Undoubtedly The Nightmare Before Christmas!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">On a scale of 1-10, how much to do you enjoy Halloween?</span></b></div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;"><b>What is your fondest Halloween memory?</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have many a fond memory, but I'm going to have to say Halloween '03 when I went out trick-or-treating with my best friend <i>(this is the only time I've been trick-or-treating) </i>anyway, I had witchy-poo'd my general attire & my friend, bless his rather large cotton socks, decided to wear a ghoulish mask & his everyday hoody... As I'm sure you can imagine, we looked like a right pair! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That was funny enough, but what really cracked me up, is each time we knocked on a door, when the occupant answered my friend would simply say <b>RAAWH</b>.. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>Needless to say, we were onto a winner!</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">Have you always been a Halloween lover?</span></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Having been brought up to appreciate the darker things in life, listening to bands like The Cure, Siouxsie & The Banshee's & The Sisters of Mercy it would be sinful of me not to enjoy Halloween. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Earlier this month, </span>a new social networking site called <a href="http://www.ble.at/"><span style="color: purple;"><b>Bleat </b></span></a>was launched! <span style="color: purple;"><b>Bleat </b></span>is a social networking site dedicated to sharing the <b><i>both the health & environmental benefits of living a plant-based & cruelty free lifestyle. </i></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Bleat provides its users with a single-point resource which educates & informs about how living a cruelty-free plant based diet can not only have a positive effect upon our health as individuals, but on a wider scale, a vegan diet can also have a positive effect upon the environment.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Together with the experience of vegans </b>& some of the worlds largest vegan organisations, Bleat provides a platform which brings people together; where they can share their knowledge, experience & ideas, whilst promoting a healthy & sustainable lifestyle, which is accessible to all. <br />
<br />
Bleat provides their users with: <b><i>"all the support, information & inspiration a vegan needs"</i> </b>from restaurants; stores, hotels, events, recipes, animal-rights campaigns, a cruelty-free market place & health & dietary information, as well as a place to connect & interact with like-minded people. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In the process they hope to<b> help all vegans live their life to the full,</b> whilst spreading the benefits of a compassionate & cruelty free lifestyle & bringing veganism into the mainstream. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: purple;"><b>Bleat is free to join</b></span>, so if you're vegetarian, vegan or just curious to find out more, </div>

<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">Today is a big day for the Cosmetics Industry, with the <b>EU passing the third & final part of the European Cosmetics Directive.</b></span></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="color: magenta;"><b>In 1976 The Cosmetics Directive began it's life by defining what a cosmetic product is.</b></span></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b><span style="color: magenta;">The Directive identified cosmetics as </span>"any substance or preparation in contact with external parts of the human body, or with teeth & the mucous membranes of the oral cavity, with a view exclusively or principally to cleaning them, perfuming them, protecting them... keep them in good condition, change their appearance or correct body odours"</b>.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>Furthermore it governed the labeling, safety data & contents of cosmetics; </b>such as <i>colourings, preservatives, UV Filters </i>& so on.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Throughout the 80's & 90's there was an increase in public awareness about the use of animals for the testing of cosmetics & so following public outrage, in <b>1993 the EU government responded with legislation banning animal testing.</b></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>The European Legislation banned:</b></span></div>

</div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">Animal testing of finished cosmetic products.<br />The testing of cosmetics ingredients on animals.<br />Banned the import & selling of cosmetics products that have been animal tested outside the EU.</span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;">This meant that many companies would have to change their animal testing ways & find alternatives & so the Government gave them 5years to prepare & set the date to implement the new ban as <b>January 1st, 1998.</b></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>Unfortunately, </b>during this time, a number of the largest cosmetic's companies lobbied the European Commission & so the ban was <b>postponed until 30th June, 2000</b>. <b></b></span></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>This date was then again delayed & the ban was postponed a further 2 years!</b></span></div>

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><b>Meanwhile, out of the public eye, </b>amendments were being made to the cosmetics directive which stated that parts<b> 1 & 2 of the ban could be implemented in 2009 <span style="color: red;">BUT</span></b> with the exception that testing for <b>repeated dose toxicity, toxicokinetics & reproductive toxicity would still be allowed, until full of the implementation of the marketing ban which was granted a delay until 2013.</b></span></div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">I have some sad news Glameroons,</span> LUSH have announced that they will be discontinuing their <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">Enchanter Ballistic</span></b>... As you can see, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">it's absolutely beautiful! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">The Enchanter </span>is definitely one of my favourite bath bombs... Not only is it scented with the essential oils of uplifting & zingy <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">lime</span>, <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">nerol</span>i & <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">frankincense</span> the <b>colours match my hair! </b>The Enchanter was initially released as a limited-edition Halloween product, which was fortunately kept on until Christmas & then into the New Year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>You may recognise the Enchanter's fruity scent, as it was previously used for the <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">Skullduggery</span> & <span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;">Calavera</span> bath bombs (previous years), </i><i>so hopefully it will return this Halloween!</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Despite the Enchanter occasionally having the ability to stain the skin, I found that by using a <i>small amount of bubble-bar</i> I was able to leave the bath un-stained <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">(seriously, give it a try)</span>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>I am definitely going to miss this spell-binding beauty... </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: right;">
The Enchanter is available in-store & <a href="http://www.lush.co.uk/">online</a> @ £3.20</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">Have you tried the Enchanter? </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;">Will you be stocking up?</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: magenta;"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: blue;">The Willow Pattern Story:</span> </b></span>As told by <a href="https://www.lush.co.uk/product/6282/500g-Willow-Pattern-LARGE">Lush</a></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">Once there was a wealthy Mandarin, who had a beautiful daughter (Koong-se). She had fallen in love with her father's humble accounting assistant (Chang), angering her father (it was inappropriate for them to marry due to their difference in social class). He dismissed the young man and built a high fence around his house to keep the lovers apart. The Mandarin was planning for his daughter to marry a powerful Duke. The Duke arrived by boat to claim his bride, bearing a box of jewels as a gift. The wedding was to take place on the day the blossom fell from the willow tree. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-small;">On the eve of the daughter's wedding to the Duke, the young accountant, disguised as a servant, slipped into the palace unnoticed. As the lovers escaped with the jewels, the alarm was raised. They ran over a bridge, chased by the Mandarin, whip in hand. They eventually escaped on the Duke's ship to the safety of a secluded island, where they lived happily for years. But one day, the Duke learned of their refuge. Hungry for revenge, he sent soldiers, who captured the lovers and put them to death. The Gods, moved by their plight, transformed the lovers into a pair of doves.</span></div>

Hey Glameroons,<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Recently I posted '<a href="http://www.glam-eye-am.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/html-how-to-1-how-to-make-hyperlink_18.html">how to create a hyperlink</a>' & Jillian who write's over at <a href="http://puzzlemecomplete.blogspot.co.uk/">Puzzle Me Complete</a> asked whether or not I'd be able to create falling hearts (similar to the falling snowflakes, which were previously on my blog).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As you can see, I've added falling hearts ♡ I tried various generators & available codes, but most of them were unsuccessful & simply created a stream of hearts down the left hand side of my blog...</div>
<br />
Here is the code which I installed:<br />
<br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: yellow;"><script src="http://www.google.com/jsapi" type="text/javascript"></script><script src="http://yjl.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/JavaScript/falling_hearts.js" type="text/javascript"></script></span><br />
<br />
☛ Copy the code<br />
☛ Open Blogger Layout<br />
☛ Open 'add gadget'<br />
☛ Choose HTML/Javascript<br />
☛ Paste the code<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
When you save your changes, the falling hearts should appear! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are other codes/generators available, but this is on the one which I used ^__^
</div>

Hey Glameroons!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For someone who's not a huge fan of shopping,<b> I sure like spending money! </b>I can't believe that February is almost here...The sales are dwindling & I'm ready to get organised, I can't really put my finger on where I'm spending, so I've decided to participate in <b>Frugal February</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">source: dictionary.com<br />
<br /></td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's personal choice as to how strict you want to be with yourself & what you want to achieve over the next four weeks. I want to find a way of living, where I can afford to do the things I want, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
whilst saving a pretty penny. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The basic rules:~ </b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
From the first of February, I vow to avoid shopping/spending other than for essentials.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #674ea7;"><i>clothes / shoes / accessories / makeup / cosmetics / music / films / dvds / games / books / magazines</i></span> </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Food & drink </b>are exempt from Frugal February, however, I shan't be buying wine to consume at home, I shall be making deserts instead of purchasing them & I also shan't be buying bottles of fizzy when I'm out & about, aswell as taking my own lunch to work. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Personal hygiene items, </b>including deodorant, toothpaste, shampoo are exempt. <b>I shall be using this opportunity to use up all my half empty bottles. </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In my opinion, Frugal February shouldn't make you feel like you're a prisoner in your own home, <b>socialising is important</b> & so I shan't be restricting myself from doing so. I will however be cutting down on the amount of money I spend & limiting myself so I don't waste money.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Personally, I am going to take the opportunity to ensure that I don't waste my money, by spending unnecessarily & I'm going to make an effort to finish off half-used make-up & beauty products.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
As there are 28 days in February, I will be updating my progress on the <b>7th/14th/21st/28th</b>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I shall also be sharing voucher codes, freebies & any money-saving-tips I find along the way.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
