I haven't shared a favourites post in a long, long time, but I think it's time to talk beauty again. Skincare and self care in general are much needed, when my mental health isn't great and a new blog post was well overdue. So here are some of my latest beauty must haves.
Father's Day Gifting with Plowden & Fallow
With Father's Day approaching really soon, I wanted to introduce you to some unique fragrances by Plowden & Fallow. I reviewed the Ophrys EDP* a few months ago and I was really impressed with the lasting power, quality and packaging of the fragrance, so I thought... what better gift for Father's Day than beautiful artisan fragrance! I chose the Debonaire EDT and The Plowden & Fallow Fragrance Sample Set to recommend to you and if you're looking for a unique and luxurious fragrance gift, these will be perfect!

My bedtime essentials
My bedside table is very rarely super organised at and I am still looking for new lamps to go with my bedroom decor, but I thought I should share a few of my bedtime essentials anyway, with some recommendations for dry skin and some anti-anxiety weapons :)

It's so nice to be back to blogging properly, and what better way to get my inner beauty blogger going than a fragrance review. YAY! I recently popped into Frasers Glasgow to try the new I Want Choo EDP by Jimmy Choo*, as they had the JC Golden Chair set up at the iconic spot on the staircase and it was love at first sight.

If you're looking for a new fragrance to try, you have to give I Want Choo a go. I got so many compliments on it already. Keep reading to find out more.

I got so many questions about this makeup look in my Instagram DM's, so I decided to do a quick blog post with links to the products I used to create the base and eye makeup. I am not sure if all of these are available, but I will list alternatives if they're not.

AD: Tips & tricks for easy false lash application
AD: This post is in conjunction with Boots UK but all thoughts are my own
I’m a huge fan of false lashes and if you remember the old days of blogging, you will know that the Ardell Wispies have a cult status in the world of beauty. With so many options on the market, it can be hard to choose the right lashes, but after testing hundreds of pairs, I know exactly what I like and how to make the application as easy as possible. Here are my tips tips and tricks, using some of my favourite lashes by Ardell.
Giorgio Armani brow products.
I've been meaning to write about some of the Giorgio Armani eyebrow products for ages, but I never really got round to it till now. I received this selection and I was really confused about the bright red to be honest, but I actually used it on my lips and it worked a treat. The other products are much more suited to eyes and brows though, so I didn't have a problem trying them out. In fact - I found my new favourite eyebrow pencil and angled brush. Yay!
Brand focus: Typology Paris
(AD/gifted) This post contains gifted products and affiliate links
Skincare has always been a huge part of my blog (and my daily routine) and I have tried hundreds (or thousands) of products over the years and it became very rare for a brand to catch my eye and get me intrigued, but... Typology managed to make me excited to write about skincare again. Yay!
I have been using Typology products for a long time and I mention them on Instagram quite a lot, so you are probably familiar with the name and aesthetic. I adore their ethos, packaging and formulas. I was recently sent a few more bits to try, so I thought it was about time to finally share my thoughts on the blog.
