Organic Surge 2-Minute Moisture Mask Review

Organic Surge 2-Minute Moisture Mask* £6.99

I like to treat my hair to a nice hair mask once a week and my Holy Grail is still the Macadamia Deep Repair Masque. It is really expensive though, so I am always on the lookout for a cheaper alternative. My latest discovery is the Organic Surge 2-minute Moisture Mask and I am very impressed with it.

New releases from Bourjois: Blush Exclusif and Java Rice Powder - review and swatches

Once again, Bourjois brought out some amazing products and left me very impressed! I am really happy to see my favourite high street brand being praised on other blogs and becoming so popular. They really deserve all the attention. The latest Bourjois wonders I had a chance to try out are the Blush Exclusif and Java Rice Powder. In both cases, it was love at first sight.

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge Review

Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge* £4.99

I am a big fan of beauty blenders and use them to apply my foundation quite often, especially if I want to achieve a flawless finish. The original beauty blender is really expensive, but...Real Techniques affordable version means that you will be able to get your mitts on a good quality makeup sponge without breaking the bank. The cheap ebay ones usually feel like rubber and are a nightmare to clean.

F&F Couples' Chino Challenge

When I was asked to take part in Couples' Chino Challenge, I couldn't say no. I love fashion, my husband likes nice clothes and we both like a challenge :) On top of that, we will be in with the chance of winning a weekend away in a luxurious hotel. I can't even explain how much we need a weekend away. We haven't been anywhere alone since our son was born over 2 years ago! I know... Shocking... Anyway...

I just can't get enough of... Mint Green Nail Polish

When I was organising my nail polish collection, I realised that I have many variations of a pastel green colour aka 'mint green'. I absolutely love this shade on my nails and my favourite and most used one is still Essie's Mint Candy Apple. I adore the way it looks against every skin tone. I wear it when I am pale or tanned and it is perfect. It is the only nail colour I used up and repurchased!

One of my favourite ways to relax

One of my favourite ways to relax is listening to classical music, drinking my favourite caramel latte with loads of fresh cream and a sprinkle of chocolate on top. I don't know anyone who doesn't enjoy some time alone with Vivaldi's Four Seasons. My personal favourite is Spring and I could listen to it on repeat every  morning.

Sunday Manicure: The one I didn't like

Hi everyone. I hope you are having a lovely Sunday. Today's manicure is the one I was excited to try but... it turns out that we were not made for each other. It looks interesting, but I couldn't stand the feeling of it on my nails. 

Pretty Flowers Make Me Happy

Flowers are something I absolutely adore and they never fail to put a smile on my face. I have fresh flowers in the house most of the time, especially in Summer. I usually separate big bouquets into smaller ones and put single flowers in small vases to make all rooms look pretty :) This time I took a couple of flowers out and put them in a big clear jar, on top of some magazines and books. I think I spend too much time on Pinterest :) haha. If I could have multiple bouquets of fresh flowers in every room, I would! 

Why We Love Coffee

Coffee is the second-most consumed beverage in the world, after water. And if the world continues the trend the way it has been for the last few centuries, it will soon overtake good old-fashioned H2O as the number one source of hydration. 

But what is it about coffee that makes it so popular? Why are so many people into it?

Vichy Idealia Life Serum Review

Vichy Idealia Life Serum* £29.50 (30ml)

After trying the Vichy Idealia BB Cream and falling in love with, I couldn't wait to give the new Idealia Life Serum a go. It is designed for skin exposed to stress, sun, pollution and an unbalanced diet to help transform the appearance of skins quality, tighten pores, add radiance and even out skin tone. I don't necessarily need a lot of help with my skin, because I eat a balanced diet, don't smoke or drink alcohol, but... after reading rave reviews, I thought that my skin might benefit from the Idealia Life Serum.

Clarins Graphic Expression Autumn 2013 Collection review + swatches and two Autumn makeup looks

I must admit- I wasn't feeling the Autumn vibe, until I started playing with Clarins Graphic Expression Collection. It made me realise that it is time to take a break from corals and peachy shades and experiment with darker, richer colours. With that in mind, I created two simple looks for Autumn 2013 with a selection of Clarins products I was kindly sent last week.
