theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer aka The Luminizer review



This review is an exciting one for me, because the Luminizer is my first product from theBalm.
The brand gets a lot of love from bloggers and it has been on my radar for ages. 
I can describe my first experience with the brand in one word- LOVE!

Eye Of Horus Makeup - Inspired By Ancient Egyptians


When some beautiful Eye Of Horus products landed on my desk, I was very intrigued.
 I really like the name of the brand and the simple black and gold packaging, inspired by Ancient Egyptians is right up my street. I have a soft spot for anything ancient religion and mythology related :) 

Monartti Butterscotch Amber Ring


I adore jewellery and my love for it is turning into a slight obsession. The newest addition to my collection is the beautiful Butterscotch Amber Ring from Monartti.

Polaroid Style Prints


I love photography and I always print out a lot of pictures for my photo albums. Why? The answer is very simple.  Can you imagine showing your child their baby photos, trying to find them on your 20 year old hard drive? (if it still exists after all those years) It wouldn't be as easy as picking up a photo album! I can't imagine going through all the folders, with thousands of files!!! I take hundreds of pictures every day, so printing out all of them is impossible, but... I make sure to keep my photo album updated :) 

Products I've been loving lately


I don't write "favourites posts" regularly, but I really wanted to share some products I have been loving lately. 
As you can see, there is a lot of them, so I should probably avoid writing another long intro (see last post) and crack on with the post... right now :)

My Favourite Nail and Cuticle Oils


If you read my blog regularly, you will know that I always complain about weak nails and dry cuticles. 
I am one of those people with paper thin nails and no matter what I do, I will never have strong nails. I can make them slightly stronger, if I take supplements and use oils and treatments on a regular basis, but as soon as they grow past a certain length, they break easily.

Paul & Joe Summer 2013 Beach Baby Collection


I am a sucker for pretty packaging and I often buy products, because they are cute and beautiful!
The SS13 Beach Baby collection from Paul & Joe Beaute is absolutely gorgeous and in my opinion, it ticks all the boxes. The quality of the products is great, the colours are perfect for summer and the packaging is to die for!

Lucy Annabella Organics


I love natural and organic body products and if you combine it with a touch of luxury, I can fall in love easily :)
I was kindly sent two gorgeous products from Lucy Annabella to try out and I absolutely adore them! 

Limited Edition DKNY Be Delicious Art



I adore the original DKNY Be Delicious EDT and it has been one of my favourite fragrances for years.
When I was asked, if I would like to review one of the limited edition DKNY scents, inspired by the art of Keith Haring, I couldn't say no :)  

Bourjois Cream Blushers Review




 I absolutely adore Bourjois and when I go to Boots or Superdrug, they are the first brand I check out. 
They released many new product recently, including the beautiful cream blushers. I really like cream products, especially for Spring/Summer and I am becoming slightly addicted to the reinvented Little Round Pots.

Everyday Minerals Large/Deluxe Eye Brush Set Review


Everyday Minerals Large/Deluxe Eye Brush Set* £25.95 via www.beautychamber.co.uk

I have a big collection of brushes, but I have been looking for a new eye brush set and an angled brush for my eyebrows. That's why I jumped on the chance of reviewing Everyday Minerals brushes. I have never heard about the brand, but I am very impressed with the quality of their tools. They offer a big selection if single brushes, sets and mineral makeup at affordable prices.
