Urban Decay Naked Ultimate Basics Palette Review and Swatches

Whenever Urban Decay release a new eye shadow palette, I know it will be a good one. Their formula is my favourite and I love the brand with all my heart! The new Naked Ultimate Basics Palette*(£38.50) is one of the best UD releases since the original Naked palette came out and I am very pleased to have it in my collection. It's packed with stunning matte colours and perfect for everyday use.

Afternoon Tea with Liz Earle

Guess what my lovelies? I went to my first ever event! Yep... After saying no to events for over 4 years, I finally kicked my anxiety's butt and got over my fear of meeting new people and being socially awkward. I just couldn't say no to afternoon tea with Liz Earle, as her skincare products have a special place in my heart! It was such a lovely event and I was worried for no reason, because everyone was lovely and I am now feeling more comfortable going to any future blogger events.

Giorgio Armani Lip Magnet Liquid Lipsticks

I became obsessed with matte lipsticks (just like everyone else, I know...) and I very rarely wear anything else these days. Liquid formulas are my favoruite type and the new Giorgio Armani Lip Magnets*(£27.00) are the ultimate liquid lipstick dream! I am not exaggerating- they are the best liquid lipsticks I have ever tried and I fell in love with them at first application.

Primark Velvet Matte Lipstick Crayons

More Primark beauty bargains? Yes, please! I picked up some more of the Velvet Matte Lipstick Crayons and I love them sooo much. They are not the most incredible, luxe lip products out there, but for £2, with a nice formula and a matte finish, I am pretty impressed!

Perfect base with bareMinerals

I have been wearing a lot of makeup lately, so I am trying to make sure I have some light coverage/natural days too, just to give my skin a bit of a break. I have been using some fab bareMinerals products to cleanse and moisturise and their Complexion Rescue and Invisible Light Duo to even out my skintone and add a glow to my face.

Piccolo Organic Baby Food.

When it comes to baby food, I make most of it myself, from scratch. BLW or purees, I prefer to know what goes into it and avoid anything with preservatives, added sugars or artificial sweeteners. I do buy organic  food pouches occasionally, as Mia loves them and our new favourites are by Piccolo, an awesome brand we discovered recently.

Cosatto Hug Isofix Daisy Dot Car Seat with 5 Point Plus Anti-Escape System

There comes a time in your baby's life, when they are not so little anymore and they start growing out of their cot, pram and car seat. We have used a Doona for the past 14 months and as amazing as it was, it has to be put away for the next baby and Mia recently got an upgrade to a big girl seat. She was soooo excited during her first front facing ride! We opted for the Cosatto Hug Isofix Daisy Dot Car Seat*(£280.00) with 5 Point Plus Anti-Escape System and we absolutely love it!

Home Sweet Home

I have been a bad blogger... Yep... I said it. I actually can't believe it, but I have only been blogging once or twice a week. And you know what? I am not even feeling guilty about it. I am sooo busy with regular mum stuff these days, breastfeeding, school run, healing my back, getting in shape and enjoying life, that blogging took a back seat. I am more relaxed and I have been doing bits and bobs to make the house feel more cosy. It's so nice to just write this, because I am feeling like it, not because I have a deadline. Here are some lovely decor bits I purchased recently that I just adore, including some great bargains you might love!
