Vichy Idealia Eyes Review

I am a big fan of Vichy Idealia Life Serum* and BB Cream*, so the release of Vichy Idealia Eyes*(£23.00) got me seriously excited. I have been using the eye cream and serum for the past 4 weeks (morning and night) and my skin absolutely loves this combo!

Fashion Monday #1

Hi everyone. If you follow me on instagram, you might have seen my outfits already, but I think I am finally ready to start sharing some OOTD posts on the blog. I am not sure if the photos will be taken with my DSLR or just my phone/ipad, but I am not too fussed about it to be perfectly honest. I get my fashion inspiration via instagram every single day, so I am perfectly fine with mirror selfies. What do you think?  Anyway... After the amazing response from many lovely ladies on instagram, I decided to introduce a 'Fashion Monday' feature to the blog, to mix things up a bit. I am getting fed up with writing about beauty 95% of the time and I want to branch out to other areas of blogging. Change is good, right?

Win £500 of John Lewis Vouchers in British Gas History Of Home Competition

I am not ashamed to admit that I keep almost every nostalgic item, because I find it really hard to part with things that mean something to me, or remind me of certain people, moments etc. It is just the way I am :) That's why I couldn't be more excited about giving you an opportunity to enter this fantastic competition hosted in cooperation with British Gas. The prize is absolutely amazing and the lucky winner will receive £500 worth of John Lewis vouchers! How can you enter?

Non-Beauty Favourites/ What I've Been Up To

I feature my beauty favourites on the blog almost every month, but to be perfectly honest, I have even more 'non-beauty' favourites, especially food related ones :) haha. I also very rarely include  lifestyle updates, so today's blog post is a mixture of both, plus a virgin mojito recipe I promised to share :) 

August Birchbox UK (review and video)

As a big fan of beauty boxes, I was very excited to open  my travel themed August Birchbox* (£10.00 +P&P). I haven't seen any sneak peeks before it arrived and I didn't even expect one in the first place, so it was a total surprise :) As soon as I lifted the lid, I spotted two products I knew I will really enjoy, but the remaining two didn't disappoint either.

Marlenha Flourish Moisturiser Review

Marlenha Flourish Moisturiser* (£49.00)

If you are a regular reader of my blog, you might remember my review of the Marlenha Petal Delicate Eye Serum. I am still using it and I absolutely love it. I was kindly sent the Flourish Mosituriser to try 6-7 weeks ago and again, I am really impressed with the formula. 

Citizen M Hotel Glasgow (review +vlog)

Last month, I celebrated my 27th birthday and it was my first night (2 nights actually) without my son! He is 3 years old and I have watched him every single day and night for the full 3 years of his life and I am really proud of myself! Anyway... After many months (ok...years) of trying to 'cut the cord', I finally left Zachary with his grandparents overnight and spent 2 nights with my husband in Citizen M Hotel Glasgow.

Clarins #YouOnlyBetter Makeup Looks

When it comes to high end makeup, Clarins are definitely my favourite brand. I absolutely adore their products, so I couldn't be more excited about sharing this post with you. I took part in the #YouOnlyBetter campaign and recreated three of the simple makeup looks, featuring Clarins core line of products. There is no need for brushes or other tools and the video tutorials make things even easier.
