Ray-Ban Aviators (+Ray-Ban Junior Giveaway)

I have some cheap aviators in my collection, but I have always wanted a pair of  proper Ray-Ban ones with gold frames and brown lenses. Well... my dream came true, as I was kindly offered a pair recently and I am in love! Let me tell you why... 

Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm

With plenty of cleansers in my stash (some with a Holy Grail status), it took me a while to finally give Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm* a go. Why, oh why did I wait soooo long to try it? It is blooming AMAZING!

Marc Jacobs Fragrance Set (+discount code)

I have a lovely collection of full size Marc Jacobs fragrances, but I have always wanted to add some of the adorable minis to my stash. They are simply too cute to resist. I opted for the Fragrance Set*(£33.00) with DOT, Oh Lola (two that I haven't tried before), Daisy and Daisy Eau So Fresh, but there are other options available as well.

Foreo Luna Mini Save The Sea Special Edition

I am a big fan of the original Foreo Luna, so I was very excited to try the mini version. This aqua blue beauty is the Foreo LUNA Mini Save The Sea Special Edition*(£99.00), launched to support a campaign that raises the awareness and funds to help protect and preserve our oceans. Amazing!

Affordable skincare at Boots

I am not a 'skincare snob' and before I started my blog, most of the products I used were from Boots own offerings, mostly the Botanics range. It's all about finding what's best for you and your skin type. I also rely on Boots when I have to restock my husbands skincare supplies, because he just slathers everything on like there is no tomorrow :) haha. 

Pregnancy update (32 weeks) & Baby Girl Haul

I am 32 weeks pregnant and I am soooo ready to have this baby! Seriously... My bump is out of control and it is making me super uncomfortable, especially at night time. The only thing I can do to feel more human is to take a mid-day nap, but it's not always possible. It's not all bad though :)

Bourjois Summer 2015

Summer wouldn't be complete without beautiful new makeup collections and the new releases by Bourjois are to die for! From light gel blushers to subtle glosses and pastel nail polishes, they have all your Summer must-haves covered.
