After Bank Holiday Covid 19 Style

How you all doing? 

After this Easter Weekend. It’s crazy how a drive to a supermarket on your own just clears your head, right? I had the best day ever, I got in my car drove to the longest of supermarkets, put my reggae beats on full blast, sun shining, shades on, windows down, hair in my mouth blowing all over place but I gave zero fucks. I was embracing Emley Moor for all its beauty. Before all this, I would; get up have the poochies to sort out, miss breakfast just so I could have that extra five minutes in bed,

STOP. Can I just ask a question? Why is it, you can toss and turn all night but at that point of your alarm BRRRROOM you’re in the comfiest position of your life OF YOUR LIFEßyes it needed that drama. And you have to get up! ‘Nice one’ world.

Anyways, I runaway with the fairies then, so five minutes in bed, 10 alarms later and I have 1 hour until I start work, in that time I turned into the Tasmanian Devil on Loony Tunes cleaning, washing, vacing, putting makeup on or not, rag the dreadlocks up, dash a peppermint tea and some strawberries and boom. Off to work I go. I ho, I ho, I ho!

That was my routine. But now. Fast forward to the mind fuck that is, present day and… Drumroll…

Does anyone else feel like you’re in the big brother house? That beautiful Geordie accent kicks in…Day 45 in The Bullet household. Let me tell you I am very thankful for a spare bedroom! Gracias Adios!! I Love my Smarkles but I don’t think we have spent this much time together since I was 13 years old. And I’m not going to lie its true what they say being in love with your best friend is incredible.  Challenging at times but my god, my isolation time has been amazing. He’s helped me grow, I’ve watched him build relationships with his fur sons and fur daughter and also get time for himself. But he’s also pissed me off because he has rearranged my cupboard in the kitchen and now the fucking toaster stays out apparently. But its okay, I smile and embrace my messy but lived in house. We are making memories. I keep telling him I will do Date night because before all this I bought a really sexy arse dress but the fur kids are constantly stuck by our sides.

Personally, right now feels like I’m in that period of my life again the ‘limbo’ stage where you leave school and you’re going to college, but you have that what the fuck do I do with myself time. Its massive nostalgia. At that point when I was 16, I said to myself lets live Luci, lets see the world. And that is what I am doing again.

Now I’m sure we have all gathered by now, reading my blog or in fact meeting me that one would say one is a tad eccentric darling. (Sorry I thought I was in some sort of Shakespearean play right now, as I have ‘Orchestra National de l’Opera de Monte-Carlo’ blasting out on Spotify and my mind is creating movies). Now you can see why Marcus too will be happy of the spare room. But yes, I listen to Opera now, to be fair I always used to put it on for me and my T Tonk. It clears our heads!! Well mine anyways, I’m not sure about Taras,

Moving on, I love learning I never got the time for it because, I also love pleasing people (Hence my job role in the Beauty Industry). I also love money (I have been an entrepreneur from 12 years old and run many inspiring businesses in my school days, I am my Dads daughter after all). But right now, the money isn’t there, I’m a self-employed Sole trader. Well let me tell you, I have had many arguments about my finances with Marcus recently, but to me, I am my own boss, Independent!! I even applied for a job a Morrisons and Virgin Media, but I stopped, thought for a second and talked to my massive Ego. Obviously, I had come to terms that thing I am constantly trying to brainwash Marcus with. “WE ARE A TEAM”.

So, I swallowed my pride and compromised. I now have a gift list from Marcus that includes, more sketch books and more a keyboard book because Impulsive Luci hasn’t got a clue how to read music and bought a keyboard!

My Papa G and my Aunties keep trying to help me out, but I just buy them things with it because I’m fine. My clients have been unbelievable, the support from them all. I know…I’m ready to get my grind on and bring home the bacon!!! Bring back my 14 hour days baby!

Clients/My Lovlies this is for you:

Because of you guys, you are my inspiration I have decided to give you all some of my knowledge I have picked up in this my lifetime of making people beautiful because

I have had a few of my clients come to be whilst in isolation and ask me advice on how to do their own treatments whilst this crazy time is upon us. 

First of all, I will start with your product base. Knowledge is key in this industry and sometimes we can become so easily mislead by unprofessional promoting brands and not actually realising what we are buying. So, I thought I would give you all some simple tips.  In my next post, I will use my own experiences as an example, but that doesn't mean what I say goes. (For this instance, anyways).

As a customer we are drawn to certain things. Usually, we are a country of craziness, I'm sure I can speak for the majority of us when I say that we live our life rushing, as a result this can have a negative impact on what we choose to see. Our brain picks up key words when we are searching for something and boom SOLD! Here's an insight to the beauty industry. For a product to be classed as aromatherapy based it only needs a small %. The rest could be anything. For example, Sodium Lauryl Sulfate, this is a cheap cleaning agent that was in many high street and professional brands, and it has been known to cause dryness in skin, irritations and reactions (We do not want that Lovers! We need our skin Fresh and Juicy). But we will buy products with this in! Research has shown that Aluminium in deodorants can be linked to cancers. Would you buy that product if you knew that? Absolutely not. So please do your research, ask professionals for help before you spend dollar on that special magic cream that your mate Sandra from down road told you about. Please babes!

Well that’s me for tonight, I have to study for my aromatherapy exam and catch up on The Tribe… Yes, that’s right Amazon Prime baby. And, let me just stop for a second step back into 2013 I bought the BADDEST Disney princess collection in espanol ever when I lived in Costa Rica.

I may have had no money, only money for emergencies, and when in Walmart a Magical Disney Princess book and rice cakes or some chicken and rice? Come on. Now, fast-forward to now. I have time to read that book and thanks to the help of my Tico friend and his Austrian Wonder woman they will read a bedtime story (time difference has its perks).

My next post I’m going to give you a video of my skin!! (I’m not happy about because my period is coming so I have spots but I like you all so I suppose I can do this).

I do actually have a video of me teaching Marcus how to do a facial so If you want him to teach you ha.

Please Leave a comment and let me know what you want to here about, because I can just chat shit for days.


Stay Safe, Stay inside for our amazing heroes! Keep spreading the love!!

Luci <3

Oh yeah look at how amazing this is outside my house

Covid 19

Hello lovers :) 

Well Covid 19 happened since my last post. and MY GOD HAS IT HIT US! It’s been three weeks since I have been allowed to work and a long time with having Marcus at home due to his Golf Tour been put on hold. 

I'm the type of person that craves adventure almost like a Disney princess ha-ha. Yeah, I’ll go with that. I’m a Disney princess In my own right. And now I feel like I can’t go anywhere. But I know that soon I will be free again to do with the world what I want. This time in isolation is my time to grow. Work on myself, my goals in life and my dreams.

When Boris announced the official lockdown (praying the guy gets better because yeah, he has his flaws but he defo trying to do his best) I was terrified. Not for me. But for my family, my friends, my clients and the world. 

All sorts racing through my head, finances, my career, my family, my friends, my life, my hobbies, my dogs.

Something has happened in this time and I have realised that this is my second chance in life and a blessing in disguise. Lucky for me I am a tad loca and I have the most random belongings, take for example the week before this isolation me and my best friend Tonkinton as I call her. We had a party and I drank vodka like a Russian with just a lemon chaser… People who know Luci, understand that this is a crazy mix and at the end of the night, I had receipts for A rainbow coloured Mac (Like Joesephs Dream coat- that I am still waiting for thanks to the big pal Corona virus) and a keyboard. ßWe do many things like this its where we create genius plans when we are together for example:

·       Christmas day 2016.. We dressed up as minions and booked 3 weeks to Colombia (best trip Ever)

·       We also hustled our way through Bulgaria, involving police stations, hitting the big books in casinos and taking on Bulgarian mafia.

Okay, not so genius but YOLO.

Anyways, before this virus I probably didn’t give anybody 100% of me. Was I scared to be too different? Was I scared of been hated? Was I scared of life? To all them questions yes. I lost myself for a while. I suppose in my job seeing people every day, being a little sister, a daughter, a fiancée, aunt, friend, businesswoman and a dog mum I forgot to be me. So, I asked myself what do you want? “a family with Marcus and watch him become world number 1 at golf” then I stopped and realised something that that is not my dream. Do I want them things? 100%! But that’s his dream… So, I started thinking back to when I was at school my interests.

Now I am focusing on them, in this time I’m drawing again, reading and of course doing this blog. I’m dancing literally all the time and watching seasons and films I forgot about. I’m taking care of my health, Im cooking and boxing like there is no tomorrow and I am starting to feel stronger mentally and physically.

I suppose what I am trying to say to you all is this is a scary fucking time. I’m terrified that I will lose a friend or family member. But that negative right there.. I have now taken as a positive. Im Sending food parcels to my families, engaging with my family and I am trying to keep their mind set positive. It helps. I have started to try teach myself Spanish again so I can interact with my family and friends in costa rica (its head blagging when you have dyslexia let me tell you, but it doesn’t stop me, I just keep stopping and starting).

I just also want to point out how amazing the key workers and NHS are, they are the true heroes in this battle, lets keep helping and stay inside

Stay Positive, Keep safe!!

Peace out MotherF***ers!!

Hello World..

So... It has been 6 years since my last post, and to be fair looking at this blog, I did a shitty job of a blog!! 3 posts in 10 months. Well all I can say Costa Rica stole my heart. I will be forever una tica! La verdad.


If you are reading this for the first time and thinking who is this crazy woman? Well, allow me to introduce myself. I am Luci with and I not a Y don't ask why just spell it with an I, thanks. As you can gather I have travelled (I'm keeping my life story for my number 1 best selling book.)

School 2008 Lets just say...I went to many different schools, lost count in fact 7 or 8 maybe  but any ways I was a bit of a little shit, always had respect though but school wasn't an education for me, I needed to see the world. I had bigger plans than school! What it did teach me though is how I could be a entrepreneur in many many ways. (For the book) My predicted grades well lets just say they wouldn't have given me a chance in life. There is always many arsehole teachers in a school to a kid and maybe 3 or 4 will stand out and change their life. That is what happened with me. I remember going to a college day and all I wanted to do was Art, Drama and Maths, the college I wanted to go to had a preforming arts studio, I had to dance, sing and preform... What more would a girl want in her life???? And I will never forget the careers advisor at school the day after telling me, with my grades I would be better suited to becoming a beautician or hairdresser (YES BECAUSE WE ARE ALL DUMB AS FUCK APPARENTLY) even though we have to know every ingredient that has a chemical reaction and why, also we know every lymph node, muscle and bone yet we are not classed as skilled workers (But that is for another day). I went home, thought about it and worked out from a conversation with my parents that I got funding from the government from 16-19. I had 3 years worth of learning. My parents they always taught me that with a skill or a trade you could go anywhere in the world and still do what you love, and make money. So I was obsessed with beauty, I used to stare at people in class and instantly know what would frame their face or if they needed to where their hair a certain way, to show their best features, I wanted to make art all over there faces. (All this was going on while I probably should of been listening to the teacher like) Actually I was probably concentrating on her face.


Anyways I lost myself a bit there, I like the sound of my own voice and I have a lot to say so for those of you that do not know me... Yeah you'll either love me or hate me but I am just being me. My mother always said "If you believe in anything, you should believe in yourself" Fast forwarding I got all my beauty qualifications, I also enrolled in some travel qualifications and then met a bad guy, fucked my life up for a bit,got a job, saw the cash, didn't go back and study, had some very good times but equally very bad. I'm not going to go into any details but I was a 15 year old girl that thought I was 21.. I played the part well, I'm sure my friends will argue and say there was many times they would have to pick me up from party's or hold my shoes, But I was very lucky I've always had a majority of amazing friends, all my life, whether we loose touch for years, we are always the same, They have my back, I have theirs. <<< Something that I learnt growing up that not many people in this world get. 

Anyways 2012 was one of the hardest years of my life I would say I lost a special friend, actually he was a pain in the arse to be honest and I hated him most of the time haha (everyone reading this who knew him would say the same) He was taken way too soon, he had so much more to give. He was 7 years older than me (but remember I was 15 going on 21) he worked at his mums school and the kids adored him. Every body adored him! The first day we met Id only just moved to Huddersfield I was a chav 14 years old and I loved Bassline... We ended up going out on my first night out in Huddersfield (I was an alcoholic then I would say) I was sick and he took me home with our friends, they put me to bed and woke me up for school the next morning ironically play Razorlight "In the morning". Fucking dickhead! That's where our brotherhood began. He taught me many things in my life, we always spoke about his little sister (she was two years below me) and how proud he was when I started volunteering at a youth club at 16 alongside college. Now don't get me wrong I am painting this guy to be a saint he was a fucking arse hole that I once caught breaking into my house because he missed the last bus and was trying to cut my fucking cats whiskers off because he heard that they would fall over and wanted to test it!!!!! But when all is said and done his death it made me want to better myself. So I did. I broke away from a 7 year toxic relationship. And I got a chance to find myself. <<<< Now ask me if I could change all that would I? ABSOLUTELY FUCKING NOT!!

My Tio (uncle in Spanish) who has always been somewhat of my guardian angel, whenever I was in any sort of trouble Id always know he would be there, Know someone or something or just to fix me with just simple words. This time he told me about an opportunity that had came up for me to volunteer abroad for 6 weeks... I applied and got rejected for basically being to formal in my written application.  Buuuuut Fate always creeps in and the same company wanted me for a new project to go to Uruguay for 6 month and teach English. Now if your still reading, I bet your thinking How can you teach someone English when you are 1. from Yorkshire and 2. Cant spell (I'm dyslexic btw found that out way later in life) Well don't worry boys and girls I didn't teach people in Latin America to say Eyup... No due to unforeseen circumstances the project was cancelled. Yeah I quit my job at a nail salon... Had no savings, started thinking it was a sign, I was going to be kidnapped (I Love conspiracy theories) and convinced myself not to go. Now remember them friends I said I had that were amazing 2 of them are probably my most important people in my life. Smarkles and T.P Tonkington. Between them and my dad they shipped me off like they give zero fucks  about my safety!!!


Below I did write some articles (that sounds like I'm important) about Costa Rica but if I'm been honest I had shit internet, didn't want to get robbed, so kept my phone at home and was too busy having a good actually the best time of my life. Ask T.P. Tonkington for a reference (if you want to here more ill ask her to feature in my next article haha). I think she thought Id lost the plot. I think the person I am surprises a lot of people. For one I will never forget my mentor Isaac, telling me if a guy buys you this drink in a bar you never drink it!!! of course Luci being Luci as soon as he left I ordered and drank it LA COCARARCHAAA cant tell you any more about the night apart from it was good. There is 3 very important girls I met her that forever have a piece of my heart, a gained a beautiful little Swiss sister, and 2 amazing best friends, In fact one of them she is my Italian soulmate. But these guys need their own part as do my Costa Rican familia.


God I fucking ramble... Maybe go have a wee break?


So I came home, Went back, Came home!

Remember Smarkles... Well that little fucker changed the game when  he decided to tell me he loved me! I slapped him. Very confusing time for me this. I was 22 or 21 (I think I forgot a birthday out in Costa Rica) and we had been best friends for 9 years. 13 years old I met outside a co op when I skived school with his cousin because well I just did. BOOM Fate again... Well Im not sure wether to thank fate or unthank fate for this one but ill give it to you 

Imagine a movie

Aspiring young golfer moves from Manchester back to his Dads home town in Huddersfield
Aspiring young Luci moves from Wakefield to a town full of sheep and cows called Huddersfield.

Two star crossed lovers... haha No am fucking with ya but we definitely changed each others lives.

Fast forward now to 2020..

I am a fiancee ,We have 3 dogs, We own our first house, My own business as a beauty therapist and I teach too and Smarkles is a shit hot golfer. Got it all right? But why do I feel so unfulfilled? We are not ready for children before you ask. I just feel like I have more to offer the world. I got to a point in my life where I didn't want to go out, I couldn't sleep, I hated my life and the only thing I was offered was anti depressants and a waiting list. So this is the reason I am here, I had been pondering over what I wanted to do with my life for some time and I kept coming back to writing. So I thought that I would write a blog, see what you fuckers think.. If you like it ill carry on! But it is more for me my therapy, where no one can put me down. I am all for equality and diversity and I believe that If I can put a smile on one persons face by them reading this and thinking, Who's this dickhead then my job is done!!

I will be discussing all sorts if you want me to of course
I will post:
Beauty tips, health tips to get us through this crazy Corona Virus
Being self Employed and the worries about Businesses but also the NHS Heros
What favourite trainers I have, clothes hauls
How as woman we are amazing, we should empower each other
How the beauty industry is one of the highest earners for economy yet 'we just paint nails'



So read away and share please. (If thats what you do)
 haha I'm so old school!!
