Life // Is It Embarrassing to Rent in Your 30’s?
It’s been a while since I’ve written a ‘from the heart’ blog post around here. Without sounding too ‘Dear Diary’ this is one of those topics that I think about often, cos it’s my life. And as we all know, Instagram is the devil for making us feel like we’re not where everyone else in […]

Beauty // Superdrug B Clay Face masks
I’m sure we’ve all spotted the hype around face masks and clay masks in particular over the last 12 months ago. Whilst the variety of green and grey masks have intrigued me, I’ve been yet to try them. Until the B Beautiful team from Superdrug got in touch… The B range is available in Superdrug […]

Beauty // Protocol The Lift XL
Skincare is one of my favourite topics to feature on the blog because there’s no greater feeling than getting home from work, changing into your pj’s, taking your make up off and slathering your skin in varying bottles of moisturiser, night cream and serums. Well, it’s my fave, anyway. So, when the lovely team at […]

Beauty // Epionce Lite Refresh Peel Review
I’m sure you’re quite aware that I’m into skincare and I enjoy discovering and trialling new skincare products on the regular. But, when it comes to having treatments and caring for my skin – both old and new, I’m not quite as up to date. When I was younger I had a terrible bout of […]

Beauty // Winter Skincare Solutions
Is anyone else just waiting for January to end so we can start to countdown to Spring and the hope that brighter mornings, light nights and we’ll no longer need our big coat every time we leave the house? The miserable weather and wind and rain that doesn’t seem to letting up and my skin […]

Beauty // January Birchbox x Ohh Deer Review
I’m back with another Birchbox review – this time it’s the January box in collaboration with Ohh Deer. I’ll admit, my views are mixed as my subscription rolls on… The Good Ok, so I adore design.

Beauty // The Beauty Rooms, Ormskirk Review
You may have read my latest beauty post about the fabulous Urban Calm shopping event in the Met Quarter, back in December, when I mentioned the brand had a smaller store tucked away in Ormskirk, West Lancashire?

Beauty // Urban Calm, Met Quarter Event
A couple of weeks ago I was invited along to an open evening store event at the Urban Calm store in the Met Quarter, Liverpool. I’d heard great things about the brand and already following the Aintree store on Instagram, so couldn’t wait to see what they had planned in-store! The event took place a […]

Blogmas // Birchbox v Vogue
I’ve blogged about beauty subscription boxes many times in the past because I love the idea of receiving a variety of new products or brands to try each month. I actually receive my Birchbox through work and when I heard it was a collab box with Vogue I couldn’t wait to get my hands on […]

Beauty // MAC Cosmetics Snowball Collection
I don’t know about you but soon after I first discovered make up I became MAC obsessed. Studio fix foundation was my go-to, between the ages of 17-21 and everyone has dabbled with Ruby Woo lipstick in their time. However, as my love for make up expanded, I sadly left MAC behind. But I was lucky […]

Life // Why Millenials Worry About Pressure & Expectations
I’m currently two days into a week off work and you know what? It’s lovely. We’ve not got any real plans, no day trips out, just lie ins, seeing friends and pottering around the house which we really, really needed. There’s so much pressure to do something when we take annual leave. Go on holiday, […]

Beauty // Three Skincare Products I Swear By
Since I joined Slimming World I’ve noticed a real change in my skin. It’s probably down to the lack of chocolate and crisps I allow myself to eat these days, but now the adult spots are a thing of the past and I’m enjoying the clearer skin, I decided a couple of months ago to […]

Beauty // Shades London Silver Toner
If you’ve followed my blog for a while, you’ll know I’m not averse to changing my hair colour. Back in 2010, this very blog began under the name, ‘Musings of Ruby’ due to my bright red hair. However, once I decided to go blonde back in 2014, I re-branded as Ruth Writes. However, becoming a […]
