Whilst I’m a complete scaredy cat when it comes to going to the hairdressers (honestly I thought it’s only men that have an issue with how long an inch is!) I am a huge fan of those little L’Oreal power shot treatments that you get in salons, so when I heard of L’Oreal EverRiche Perfect … Continue reading

Seersucker Hair Bow – £4.76 + shipping from Etsy 2. Striped Double Duvet Cover Set – … Continue reading
I have to say after last month’s mammoth empties post I thought this month’s would be a rather short but sweet affair. How wrong I was! Here’s what I’ve used up this month. Forlle’d Hyalogy P-Effect Clearance Cleansing and Re-Purerance Wash* When an ad for Forlle’d popped up on my Facebook feed I just knew it … Continue reading

Last month was crazy busy and as such my blogging took a bit of a battering. Thankfully things seem to have calmed down a bit now and the only things standing in the way of me and blogging is my newly formed keep fit routine and my addiction to Ni No Kuni (36 hours in … Continue reading
It wasn’t until I started having a bit of a clearout at the weekend that I realised just how many half used bottles of shampoo and conditioner I have. So I’ve put myself on a bit of spending ban when it comes to haircare. I mean just how many shampoos does one girl need? The … Continue reading

It’s hard to believe that it’s the final day of 2012, a time to reflect on the year gone by and the products that have made it great. It was hard to narrow it down to just a handful as there’s been some truly awesome products I’ve discovered this year, however with the exception of … Continue reading
I’ve had my eye on the Caudalie Beauty Elixir and Divine Oil for a while now but always assumed they were super expensive so didn’t go out of my way to buy them. This all changed whilst I was in the States last week. It’s no secret that Sephora is one of my favourite stateside … Continue reading
When it comes to daily rituals there’s one thing I can’t live without and that’s my shower. Unfortunately our shower decided to die a few weeks back so I’ve been resorting to sitting in the bath tub with one of those shower heads that attaches to the taps. It’s not as bad as it sounds, … Continue reading
It’s tough being a girl sometimes, particularly in November when the men folk in our lives are growing facial fuzz to help raise awareness of men’s health, specifically prostate and testicular cancer. I’ve tried to convince Mike that keeping my legs festively fuzzy is just my way of getting in on the action, but he … Continue reading
Once in a while an obsession completely sneaks up on me. It started with the TRESemme Split Remedy sealing serum and then before I knew it I had the entire range! Admittedly not all of the above are in regular rotation and there are some products I probably wouldn’t repurchase, but on the whole it’s … Continue reading
I’m a complete hairdresser-phobe and as such am always looking for ways to improve the condition of my hair without taking the dreaded cut, so when I heard that Aveda were giving away Damage Remedy sample kits I jumped at the chance to get one. The kit comes in a handy travel sized boxed and contains … Continue reading
