My new earphones won't stay in my ears. I may be forced to go back to my old ones.

Are they those "bud" types? I've never been able to get anything other than Sony "earbuds" to actually stay in my ear. I have never understood how other people can cope with other brands.

Earphones never like to stay in my ears either, I buy the in-ear ones and they come with several different sizes of cushion so you can usually find ones that fit your ears :yes:

Didn't leave the water to heat up for long enough so the nice hot soak in the bath with Radox muscle soak I was looking forward to was a medium length warmish one - no kitten falling in this time though.

Got my new iPhone and it appears the volume through headphones is a lot lower than the old phone (inb4 "lol the problem is you bought an iPhone")

Yeah they're the bud types and they came with different sizes. Never had this much trouble with my old Sennheizers. I've always struggled due to my ears though; it's very annoying.

Got some new makeup in the post (got given an e-voucher so I had to order online), which I'm very pleased with, but they've changed the colour of the BB Cream I use! It now looks darker with a slight orange tint to it, whereas before it was the perfect colour for my very pale skin. Admittedly I havent tried putting it on my face yet so it might look OK, still annoying though as it was so perfect before.

My headphones are starting to fall apart and I can't shake the sense that when I was younger I used to ask my mum to buy me a pair from Tesco for about 5 euro - So paying £12 (which I did today coincidentally) seems too much. Noise isolation is the way forward though.
