Frezyderm Sunscreen SPF50 & Kids Chemical Free Sun Screen Overview!
When I got married 5 years ago we went to Greece for our honeymoon, and even though we were very much in a tourist spot I still managed to find a Sephora (I was in heaven) and every single pharmacy I went in to had an impressive selection of Greek made skincare (Korres and Apivita […]
I did an Armpit Detox and now they are stunning.
I did an armpit detox. What the hell is an armpit detox? Well let me explain how I got here… A few months ago I decided to completely give up any deodorants that contain aluminium. Aluminium is used in deodorant to reduce sweat – I naively thought that this only affected aerosols – wrong! There […]
Sale Haul: Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow Review
The story goes, I once saw this Stila Magnificent Metals Foil Finish Eye Shadow on a counter and fell instantly in love. I LOVE EYE GLITTER. It is totally my thing, I have n o shame wearing layers of glitter on my eyes to Tesco, I don’t care. BUT. I was stopped in my tracks when […]
Pen Heaven – Lamy XL Fountain Pen with Calligraphy Nib and Laurige Leather Journal Review
Regular readers will know as well as make up and beauty, my other big love is anything to do with stationery and crafting. I have over 100 notebooks (which aren’t filled – for shame) but they are very much my weakness. When I was asked if I wanted to try something from Pen Heaven, a […]
My Doublewear Foundation Alternative: Kat Von D Lock It Foundation and Hydrating Primer Review
We end the week with Kat Von D, a brand I am really enjoying and now that there is a counter near me, I can see myself going for a concealer and liquid lipstick soon. We are talking about their Lock It Foundation (£27) and Hydrating Primer (£24). You probably know I am a huge […]
Mii Tropical Daydream Make Up Collection Review and Swatches
I was recently sent some lovely bits of make up from Mii Cosmetics from their Tropical Daydream collection to try. I am not sure of how many of you know of the brand but I really do like their stuff – I have a few items I use regularly (such as the brow mascara). […]
Kat Von D Make Up: Alchemist Holographic Palette Review and Swatches!
We will start the week with Kat Von D and end the week with her too (I am sort of in love with the brand at the moment). The Alchemist Palette was brought to my attention by Fashionicide – check out her blog and Instagram for her colourful, unicorn-y, always uplifting make up looks (I’ve met […]
Afterspa Cleansing Puffs Review
Afterspa is a specialist bath and body care brand which has just launched in the UK – their full range is available in the US from Walmart (they have some really lovely looking body scrubs and bath products I hope they bring over here) but at the moment, they are giving us some of their […]
The Estee Edit is going…should you stock up? I stocked up!
Despite the fact that The Estee Edit as only been around for around a year, it was announced in June 2017 (last month – its July 02nd at this moment in time, give me a chance to catch up) that the entire line is being discontinued. The range will be removed from Selfridges in November […]

I am late to the party but I jut got my first set of Essie Gel Couture polishes, and I think they look pretty cool. I love the twisted bottle design. I have 5 colours from the collection and their Platinum Grade Finish top coat. I believe that they have released a collection of 12 […]
