The Glueless Scr4pbook.

I had to buy into the pastel nail trend, even though I already have enough pastel nail polishes to start my own shop, sometime you just have to and I am so glad with my two gorgeous picks. I went for the Barry M collection, although tempted my the Models Own and L'oreal counters I decided to stick to my old faithful, (I'm...

Sunday is always a nice day to chill out, relax and treat yourself, so today I decided to treat my skin in particular, in every way, cleansing, exfoliating, moisturising, a mask, the works. This is just a low down on the lovely products I used today.To cleanse I used the Body Shops Camomile Sumptuous Cleansing Butter first to get all the nasties off,...

A few weeks ago I finally decided to bite the debit-card-shaped bullet and spend £18 on a tiny make up brush in the form of the famous MAC 217 Blending Brush. Having only recently developed a new obsession with eyeshadow, I was reluctant to buy it straight away despite it repeatedly showing up on my to-buy list and despite every single blogger &...

I thought I had to do a blog post about these gifts,...

I had never actually used any Avene products until this month, but I think I have found myself 2 firm favourites for the 'forever repurchase' list, and I've got my eye on a sneaky third product (the Soothing Hydrating Serum £17). The 2 products I picked up are the Avene Thermal Spring Water £6.50 and the Avene Micellar Lotion £12.50. I only really picked...

Since I am a nude lips obsessive I thought I would do a post all about my favourite nude lip products, some of them are old faithfuls but some are new additions that I've fallen for. So for glosses the drugstore is where its at, the Barry M glosses £4.49, are all gorgeous, I have had this one for ages and don't actually...

I thought I would just do a quick post and let you guys see what have been buying over the last month or so, I took advantage of the Boots 3 for 2 so a lot of the bits are from there but I also treated myself to a few more expensive treats. Skincare-wise, I picked up the famous La Roche Posay Effaclar...

I cracked last week and decided to order YSL Rose Scabiosa 48 Nail Lacquer. I saw it first on Tamira's blog, Lipstick With Some Sunshine and I knew I was in love with it but I was resisting buying it until... I was on the Debenhams site and they were having their 10% off beauty, so it was down to £16.20 from £18....

I thought I would do a post on my favourite bloggers. I follow a good few and generally use Bloglovin to find posts that catch my attention, I just scroll endlessly randomly clicking when I find something cool but I also have a few in my 'favourites' list that I always check no matter what, these are the top 10 so far. (I...

I am a base fiend and so I love buying new foundations, concealers, powders and now primers too. I love my full coverage as I'm a bit under confident because of my continual skin problems, and good quality full coverage foundations seem pretty hard to come by (I hate compact foundations and stick-form foundations, I generally find them cake because of my dry...

This post was just a little idea I had recently, I thought I would share all my knowledge (not that there is mountains of it) on the oily skin type. It seems like there are so many restrictions when you have oily skin, but most of them are actually myths or things that can be manoeuvred around. I hope this is somewhat useful,...

I have been scrolling endlessly through reviews of this apparently amazing, holy grail stuff, it claims to cure all the problems that I suffer with my skin… clogged up pores, redness, scars lefts from blemishes, so I thought I had better give it a go, especially since there has been a wonderful 3 for 2 offer in Boots over the last few weeks....
