My favourite red lipsticks
After procrastinating I’ve finally organised my make up drawer and sorted out my lipsticks. Whilst I haven’t worn as much make up over the last two years as I did prior, when I’m doing a full face you can best believe in including a red lip. I have about 10 different red lipsticks, all predominantly […]

New skincare routine additions for 2022
Hello. We’re back with another skincare edit. I mix these up quite often, in terms of new products that I’ve bought to try out and sharing products I received for Christmas. I actually asked for two moisturisers this Christmas. One was a purchase of a sample I’d been trying and loved and the second was […]

Skincare Favourites: September 2021 Update
I think I just need to accept that skincare update posts will roll around as quickly as the change in seasons. Number one I really enjoy skincare. Trying new products, sticking to a routine and love seeing results when a product or set of products works well. And two, I really enjoy writing these posts. […]

Beauty Treatments I’ve Had – It’s Ok To Talk About It
I’m not against surgery if I felt I had thought it thoroughly and had genuine reasons to improve myself in certain areas of my body. I’m a fan of a facial, a spot of dermaplaning and the odd chemical peel. If I didn’t already have huge lips, I might be swayed to add a ml […]

Pixi V Aldi – Glow Tonic & Vitamin Wake Up Mist Dupes
If you know me, you know I’m a huge Aldi fan. Food, toiletries, home stuff, you name it, it’ll be in my house. So when I was having my weekly read of the booklet and I spotted Aldi were releasing their own glow tonic, I was intrigued… The PIXI dupe is in Aldi stores now […]

Derma V10 Clay Masks Review
I love a pamper sesh and having my new dressing room space in the new house (how long can I keep calling it new after living for here three months?!) means I can take myself upstairs, now Love Island has finished for a pamper. Derma V10 is a brand I first came across a few […]

An Introduction to Soap & Glory Bodycare
I’m a long-time fan of Soap and Glory products and they’re my go-to when I fancy a pamper sesh. I read this post from I Like Tweet this morning asking if skincare is the new self-care and I couldn’t agree more. Taking the time to lock myself in the bathroom with a range of products […]

Beauty // Indeed Labs Skincare Review
I’m sure you know how much I love discovering new skincare launches and trying new products. Whilst I’m brand loyal when it comes to some products; Estee Lauder for foundation or L’Oreal for mascara for example, I think the skincare market is huge and there are so many cool brands bringing new things to the […]

Beauty // Aldi Lacura Anti-wrinkle Day Cream, Review
Blog posts are few and far between around here at the moment whilst we still continue to live without the internet in our new house (thank god for free wifi on buses and trains) but it’s been so long since I’ve posted about beauty and I’ve really missed it. Not that I’ve bought many new […]

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 […]

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 […]
