So not so long ago I told you how the kind folks at Niven & Joshua sent us Mikey, some fab Polaar products to try out on our ski trip. If you missed that post you can find it here. Mike received the Hydraprotect UV+ Moisturiser which aims to protect the skin from the damages of pollution, stress and … Continue reading
So you may remember me mentioning these Natural Hero products a few weeks ago as part of my Ski-centuals series. It sounds cheesy but these two products were my absolute saviours last week when I was on the slopes. In fact I don’t think I went a day without using them. I followed Louise’s advice … Continue reading
For the final part of my Ski-centuals series I thought I’d show you what I took with me on our recent ski trip. When you’re out in the elements it’s essential to keep your skin both protected and hydrated. Which is exactly what these products are great at doing. Boots Essentials Cucumber Cleansing Wipes – … Continue reading
So I’ve covered off my Favourite Products of 2012 but which were the ones that left me feeling more than a little disappointed? Here are the products of the year that just didn’t work for me. Umberto Giannini Volume Blow Dry Spray – £5.49 from Boots I was willing to overlook the fact that the … Continue reading
I don’t know about you but as soon as December comes around I develop an almost instant love of all things glittery, and these bad boys were no exception. Formerly Collection 2000, Collection have found a big place in my heart this year providing great quality cosmetics at purse-friendly prices. The Glam Crystals Dazzling Gel … Continue reading
Sorry for the radio silence these last few days, I had posts scheduled but real life got in the way and I didn’t get a chance to finish writing them up. Anyway, I’m back now with more suggestions of products you should be packing if you’re heading to the slopes this season or even if … Continue reading
I’d heard such great things about the Perricone MD No Concealer Concealer but always been put off by the price. I mean let’s face it, £37 for a concealer is more than a little steep, particularly when you see the size of the bottle. However when I spotted it in Sephora for $39 I soon … Continue reading
Last night was our infamous team pub crawl #12PubsofXmas so I’ll keep this short and sweet. If there’s one thing you need to try this Christmas it’s the beastly Triple Cheesemas burger from Byron. This monster burger features not one, but two 6oz patties, three types of cheese and Byron’s signature spicy sauce. I first … 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
Being the great Fiancee/Girlfriend I am I appreciate that it’s not just us girlies who suffer with skin issues when Jack Frost comes around which is why I was quick to pick up this fab little set for Mike when I was wandering Sephora last week. Of course I also wanted to use him as … Continue reading
I’ve been dabbling with BB creams for a while, ever since I received my Dr Jart+ Water Fuse sample from Sephora, and then consequently purchased it before I head back to the UK (which I reviewed here), but nothing has really stood out as being a must have item. Nothing that is until I found … Continue reading
As I mentioned in my Origins Haul post, I have fallen head-over-heels in love with their GinZing eye cream, so much so that I bought a full size pot the very same week my sample arrived. If that doesn’t say something, nothing will! I must admit when it comes to eye creams I always start … Continue reading
As I’m sure many of you are aware, last week Selfridges’ Lucky Bags went on sale, sold out within 48 hours and then caused mass outrage less than 24 hours later when they started arriving. The main issue was that Selfridges had promised a lucky dip from the most exciting make-up, hair, skin and … Continue reading
Today I had every intention of heading to my meeting in London and then heading home to work from the comfort of my sofa. All this changed however when I received a text telling me my Selfridges Lucky Bag had been delivered to the office. It would be sacrilege to leave my lucky bag waiting in … Continue reading
Well ladies, the wait is finally over. After weeks of excitement and anticipation the Selfridges Lucky Bag is now available to buy. But be quick, with only 1,000 bags available they look set to sell out fast! Selfridges explain that each bag includes a minimum of five beauty must-haves, while a very lucky few contain … Continue reading
One of my favourite things about Autumn is that I get to wear my favourite wintery tones, you know the ones, those rich, plummy tones that can’t help but make you feel all warm and toasty inside. No? Just me then! I showed you six of my favourite Autumnal nail polishes last week, but now … Continue reading
When deciding on our honeymoon we struggled to find somewhere that ticked all our boxes. First and foremost we wanted somewhere relaxing, figuring that after nearly two years of planning we would need a well earned rest once the main event was done. Unfortunately though I have a short attention span, and being someone who … Continue reading
I like to think I’m fairly immune to advertising, but when the advert for Nivea Express Hydration Primer appeared on my TV I just knew I had to have it. And when I then discovered it was just £3.99 (RRP. £4.99) in Superdrug, I just knew it was meant to be! But was it worth … 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 always on the hunt for the HG BB cream but have struggled to find one that matches my uber pale skin. So far the closest match for me has been the Dr Jart+ Water Fuse BB but it still doesn’t tick all my boxes, so I was excited when a sample pack of L’oreal’s Revitalift … Continue reading
