It’s no secret that I am was a huge fan of MUA and their great quality products and cheap and cheerful prices but recently it’s begun looking like their products come with a much bigger cost. I kept relatively quiet during their 50% off sale despite being one of the many, many customers who had payment … Continue reading
You can probably tell by now that I’m super rubbish when it comes to not spending money. I had every intention of popping into Superdrug purely to pick up some much needed Lemsip during the week. Instead I left with a few new goodies from MUA and a couple of my favourite Simple cleanser which happened … Continue reading
When it comes to sports I seem to be fairly seasonal, in Summer I love nothing more than to board a boat and sail away for a while, and in the Winter all I want to do is hit the slopes. Which is why when I discovered SportPursuit I thought all my prayers were answered … Continue reading
It’s no secret that I’m a HUGE fan of MUA. Every product they make seems to be such high quality and still they manage to keep their prices purse-friendly. At just £1 each it’s a surprise I haven’t snapped up all 16 shades, but amazingly I’ve resisted…for now! I’m sure there have been plenty of … 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
I feel like I’ve been out of the loop when it comes to MAC collections recently. Though that’s probably not a bad thing given my propensity to purchase anything with the limited edition tag for fear of non-buying remorse as soon as it’s hard to track down. But not this time. When it came to … Continue reading
I’ve decided to break this down into two parts as I had no idea how many nail polishes I’d bought until I came to re-pack my suitcase for the trip home. Mike’s face was a picture when he saw me unpack them all! So anyway, here’s my make up haul from CVS and Walgreens. I … Continue reading
We found this washed up on Treyarnon Bay yesterday morning and I couldn’t resist taking a snap of it. If anyone has any idea what it is do let me know as I’m genuinely intrigued by it.
I’m loving this up tempo tune by Train at the moment. It’s particularly great for running to at the gym ;) Happy Monday lovelies xx
Whilst I’ve always been a massive fan of Mac Cosmetics and their never-ending array of limited edition collections, up until now I haven’t really ventured into their skincare range. Sure there was the briefest of moments with an SPF 50 cream (don’t ask me which) bought for a first holiday with an ex which combined with the Turkish … Continue reading
You may not be able to rely on the sun for that bronzed look at the moment, but that’s no reason to be looking pasty. With a range of 4 bronzers in the latest Mac collection there should be a bronzer for all skin tones. The bronzers are split into two camps, Bronzing Powder and … Continue reading
I think it’s safe to say that a lot of you stumbling across my blog for the first time recently have done so because of my swatches of Mac’s Crew Highlighter from the Hey, Sailor! collection. Personally, I’ve not been a big fan of this collection as the two items I wanted to get ended up … Continue reading
What do Mac’s Mineralize Skin Finish in Soft and Gentle and Accessorize’s Merged Eyeshadow in Golden Caramel have in common? Admittedly on paper these two products are completely different. One is a highlighter and the other is an eyeshadow but when swatched these two become one. Can you spot the difference? Ok, so they’re not … Continue reading
Usually I’m not keen on swatch and runs as I like to think that if I’m going to write about a product I’m pretty passionate about it and part of that passion is demonstrated by buying the product. Unfortunately today, that’s not the case. Well actually I set out with good intentions. Having given up all … Continue reading
When I heard about Walk to Work week I jumped at the chance to get involved. Admittedly it may have had something to do with the offer of a free pedometer and a voucher for a muffin and a hot drink, but still, that’s not the point. So as of 2pm I clipped on and … Continue reading
It’s a new month which must mean yet another Mac collection launch! Thankfully this time round there’s not a lot I’m lusting after, though no doubt as soon as something sells out I’ll be hunting high and low for it. As far as collections go this one is HUGE! Featuring Lipsticks, Lipglasses, Suntints, Blushes, … Continue reading
Here is the second in my series of reviews of the Sleek Blush by 3 range. If you missed my review of the Lace palette you can find it here. I almost didn’t buy this blush palette when I saw it as the image on the Sleek website makes it look way darker than it actually … Continue reading
Recently we’ve been making a conscious effort to use up any half-used toiletries in an attempt to make our house move in March a little more manageable. That said, there was one product I was hoping would last until the next Boots £5 voucher offer came about. Alas, I ran out of my beloved The … Continue reading
Alas, it’s a lie! Sadly I fell for this particular April Fools Day story, but for the packaging alone, I really wish these were being made. I am such an apple fangirl!
Wanna know my secret to longer lasting flawless make up? Ok, it’s not really THAT secret, in fact when I googled it I was surprised by the number of threads about it and even more surprised by the reluctance of so many to try it. So what am I talking about? I’m talking about the … Continue reading
