Beauty: Beauty Boxes from September to December

13:00:00
Im so behind in blogging. So I thought I'd lump together as many beauty box reviews as I have photographs for from September till the end of 2012.  I'll try to do them according to the month they came out but I can't quite remember the order. Oops! ...

Lifestyle: After a super long time, here's Instagram Post #3 :)

10:30:00
How-do? Its been basically forever in the blogging world since my last update. Quite a lot has happened to me and I lost my blogging mojo in a big way. Truth be told I lost my mojo full stop. This isn't the place where I'd ever really want to talk that personally but rest assured, its been a rough few months but I'm...

Beauty: Empties Post#2 August

13:30:00
A whole month has gone by! I can't quite believe it. Its been a little cold the last couple of days which says to me that autumn is coming. I do love autumn (if we could just have one with very little rain, I'd be extremely happy!). I've been trying to zip through all my half-used beauty products still and I think I'm...

Its not like anyone uses dial up anymore, thank goodness. First up way back at the beginning of the month was a Latest in Beauty You Magazine...

Lifestyle: (Not So) Recent Happenings in Instagram #3

14:30:00
Im very very behind in blogging. I basically have no excuse! My usual routines are totally shot to pieces at the moment and although I have lots of free time, I just end up forgetting. Its true what they say, if you want something done, ask a busy person! With that in mind, here's some super old Instagram pictures. MUA shade 19 nails,...

Beauty: Moonies!

13:30:00
I've been following the lovely Kia's blog MAKE me UP  for a few months now and she's been quietly but diligently launching her very own beauty product. At the start of the month she announced her product, Moonie! Moonie's are natural muslin face cloths in a big round full moon shape. Kia even has her own face of the brand, the lovely Neil!...

Beauty: Dermalogica and REN

13:30:00
Im a sucker for beauty products and I'm a sucker for discounts. So when I found out about some great offers on at REN and Dermalogica last month I couldn't resist trying their products out. Aside from the products in last month's magazine freebies, I'd never tried REN before but I had heard amazing things. And I've never tried Dermalogica either. First up,...

Beauty: Empties Post #1 July

13:30:00
I love reading empties posts on other blogs so I've decided to do one here. An empties post, incase you've never come across one before, is where you photograph all your used up toiletries and do a little review on how you found them and if you'd use them again. I must warn you, this was an exceptionally boring month for me. I'm...

Beauty: July GlossyBox vs Latest In Beauty Editor's Picks Box

20:00:00
You know I can't resist pitting beauty boxes against each other! The Glossy Box vs Latest in Beauty posts disappeared for June but they're back for July! This was a make or break GlossyBox for me this month. There's nothing wrong with the boxes I've had, per se, and I've definitely found some excellent products through them. But everytime I log in to...

Have I ever expressed my love for Lakeland on here before? If not, shame on me. If so, sorry, you're going to hear it again. I ADORE Lakeland. Not only can they both amazing customer service both in store and online (and I cannot begin to tell you how important that is to me. I hate going into shops to be met with...

Beauty: Excellent July Magazine Freebies Haul and an excellent discount!

13:30:00
When I'm not spending all my pennies on beauty boxes, I can usually be found browsing magazines for their freebies. I've been a Marie Claire subscriber for years , but they long since stopped sending the freebies to subscribers (but they TOTALLY did when I signed up. Its part of the reason why I subscribed! I really dont need a limited edition subscribers...

Cooking: White chocolate and passion fruit cheesecake

15:30:00
One thing I love about Being A Grown Up (which basically means living in a place of my own with my lovely other half) is having people over for dinner. So far we've had people over for a couple of BBQs and two 'dinner parties'. And 9 times out of ten I drink too much of my carefully selected wine and regret that...

Fashion: Primark A/W

13:30:00
I love Primark. I probably shouldn't, but I do. I have Primark items I bought years and years ago that are still going strong. So when I saw this link on the Marie Claire website I had to go check out what the A/W 2012 collection was going to look like. I'm 100% an A/W girl, not a S/S girl. I'm excited to...
