September refresh…

I cannot believe how fast this summer has gone and to think that it was 10 weeks ago I was finishing my exams and looking forward to summer is crazy! Although I don't feel like I've wasted my time off and despite setting off with the best intentions, it has been very up and down …

Kinder bueno chocolate cake

So today I realised how long it had been since I'd baked anything and... well let's just say I was definitely out of practice! But an hour or so later and I was left with this...   A little rough around the edges but edible at least 🙂 and if you fancy having a better …

Summer adventures // part 1 (ft beaufluer)

I've lost count of how many times I've promised to be consistent with blog posts but yet again I've failed - yay!  Anyway, the other week I spent the day with a friend (beaufluer) and we had a picnic whilst exploring the woods. We then ended up having a spontaneous photo shoot which, as you …

Beach bag essentials

I'm sorry it's took a while to finally post this but when I look out of the window to see rain and dull skies I'm not really inspired to write a summery post - no surprise there! Plus, the gloomy weather makes it quite difficult to take the perfect photo so apologies if they're not …

Update:

So the reality of this post is that I'm sat in bed at 11 o clock at night (probably closer to midnight once I've finished) feeling guilty as I've yet to make this most of this summer... I feel as though there was a huge amount of anticipation and excitement that this summer would be …

Zoeva rose gold makeup brushes

Zoeva rose golden brush set - £65 In December, I received these as a birthday present from my mum. I'd wanted them for ages but couldn't justify paying £65 for some makeup brushes. However, when I thought about it, it works out at just over £8 per brush which is actually quite reasonable.  The set …

TheBalm Nude ‘tude Eyeshadow Palette 

A few months ago, I switched phone contracts and as a result received a free £50 Amazon voucher. So, I decided to treat myself to theBalm Nude 'tude and Nude Dude eyeshadow palettes (which I will do another review on later). This palette retails for around £30 and comes with 12 neutral shades, featuring a …

Essence velvet stick review

Last week, I went into town with a friend and picked up a few things. One of them was the essence velvet stick matt lip colour from wilkos. Mine was in the shade 02 peony star. As soon as I tried it, I really liked it so I thought I'd do a quick review... Firstly, …

Organik botanik products – first impressions

Recently, I went to my local TK maxx and, as always, headed straight over to the makeup and skincare section. It is always hit or miss as to whether there's anything worth buying and although I was disappointed with the makeup selection, there were a few skincare products that caught my eye. I settled for …
