Sometimes I wonder how an innocent and non-assuming little trip into town can turn into a haul. I’m sorry, officer, I just don’t know what came over me. Well, actually, that’s a lie. I know full well I am an absolute sucker for a sale section. Anything over 40% really gets my heart rate going. […]
10 Things I Learnt from ‘Pretty Honest’
When it was released, Pretty Honest seemed to take the blogging community by storm. I remember discovering it in Waterstones, and with just a quick flick-through I knew I had to have it. It is the best beauty book I have ever bought! Informative, straight forward and clear – it’s a must-have for any makeup […]
July Favourites
Just a quickish post from me today! I’ve been super busy this month, and it feels like July has shot past – which means it’s now August, and August means A2 results day. There’re only 10 days to go until I find out whether I’m going to uni or not, and I’m absolutely terrified! Anyway, I’m […]
Boots: Clearance
You might have guessed, but I’m something of a Boots enthusiast! It’s not a trip downtown unless I pop into Boots, and you can often find me prowling the aisles for hours on end. You can imagine my shock when my sister tells me that she’s found a clearance section. HOW could I possibly not have […]
Summer Empties
It’s time for another BoTB/Empties post! This post has come at a very convenient time, as I’m moving house in just over a week. I’d been collecting up my empty bottles like a good blogger, when my mum took one look at them and said ‘you must be joking if you think your rubbish is […]
Lemons
One ingredient I never thought would become a part of my natural beauty regime are lemons – I only ever used to think of them as nasty, sour things. However, since discovering them as a great bath ingredient, I’ve found more and more uses for them. Now I love them! They have so many fab benefits and uses, and […]
June Favourites
It seems to be the thing to start a June Favourites post with ‘I can’t believe it’s July already’ but, to be totally honest with you, I can believe it’s July already! I’m writing this post in my garden, it’s an amazing 23 degrees (it’s 5pm!) and I’m wearing a maxi dress. Summer has come to Britain, people. And with […]
The Body Shop: Evening Skincare
For me, The Body Shop is the classic ‘oldie but goodie’ brand. It all started way back in primary school, when only the best party bags contained those little pots of Body Shop lip balm, in the classic flavours of strawberry and orange! Then I graduated onto the body butters and shower gels – even […]
Soap & Glory Haul
I remember when I was in secondary school, everyone used Soap & Glory products! Sometime between then and now, they’ve dropped on my radar a little bit (although I can’t ever leave the house without my trusty travel-sized Hand Food in my bag!). Thanks to the lovely blogging community on Twitter, I’ve started to see lots of positive […]
