First Impressions - Aveda Hair Care



I've become much better with my hair care routine in recent years and I have a number of products I rely on to keep my hair looking partially acceptable. Aveda have been around since 1978, using the art and science of pure flower and plant essences within their products. Their plant based products and natural aromas help nourish hair when it really needs it most and they have a range of products available for every hair complaint imaginable.

All Bar One Southampton



Southampton is bustling full of restaurants and bars since the new development opened and I've just ticked All Bar One off my list of places to try. My sister and I headed in for an evening of food and mocktails on a busy Thursday to see exactly what was on offer.

Beau Belle Rose Gold Makeup Brushes



Gone are the days of using my fingers to slap some foundation on. I'm all about that brush life now and I have quite the collection. The prettier, the better in my eyes and Beau Belle have some of the prettiest brushes available plus they're rose gold. I've recently been using the Beau Belle Limited Edition Rose Gold Makeup Brush Pot (£59.95) and I have a few things to say about them...

First Impressions - Milani Cosmetics



Milani Cosmetics have been on my radar for more years than I'd like to admit but this is the first time I've ever tried the products. Why did I wait so long? I have no idea. Milani Cosmetics have been creating innovative cosmetics for over 25 years all around the world from their stunningly beautiful blush compacts to long wearing foundations. I've finally been trying some of their products and thought I'd share what I really thought of them.

New In from Got2B Fresh It Up


I genuinely do not know what I'd do with my hair if dry shampoo didn't exist. I use it daily whether it's for a quick hair refresh, some volume or to just allow me to go an extra day without washing it. I do have my favourites I rely on but if there is ever anything new released, the dry shampoo fan in me needs to try it. Schwarzkopf Got2B have just released five brand new cans, exclusively to Primark and I've got the low down on them.

Beauty Items I've been loving lately


I'm always trying out new makeup and beauty products so it takes a lot for something to make the cut into every day use. I've been making more of an effort with my makeup stash recently and there's a few bits I've been going back to time and time again. There is only one product that is particularly pricey so grab your Boots card and getting shopping!

My Perfect Chanel Red



Owning a classic red lipstick is something I think is very important, there is no greater feeling than a slick of red to make you feel like you really have your shit together. I've searched high and low for my perfect red over the years and I discovered mine in a way I never would've expected.

Staying Soft with Palmers


I couldn't tell you how many years I've been using Palmer's Cocoa Butter for, it's a scent I always associate with my younger years. Palmer's is also one of the go to brands when it comes to keeping skin smooth and stretchmarks reduced so I off I toddled to Boots to check out the range. They've come a long way since the single bottles of cocoa butter I used to buy!

Selfie Ready by Lottie London



I've always been a firm believer that you should pay more for a decent foundation. The base is what sets everything together after all and if the base is rubbish, the rest won't work. There is one highstreet foundation I swear by, Seventeen Stay Time but I've recently been trying out Selfie Ready from Lottie London which is just £6.95, the same price as my beloved Stay Time. Read on to see what I thought.

Our First Baby Clothing Haul


There is something so exciting about buying tiny baby clothes. Whenever I've bought for friends in the past, I've gone totally over-board because there is just so much cute; So it's been very difficult when trying to be sensible for our very own splodge. Are you ready for the cuteness?

Three Shoes to add to your Lust List



Anyone that knows me, will know I have a bit of a shoe addiction. I've always stuck with the motto of shoes will always fit so my collection is quite vast after many a failed shopping trip. I've been having a love in with florals for some time and that reflected perfectly within my shoe collection so it was only right, my spring additions also had a floral love in.

Is Matte Really All That?



I've said many a time how I'm a big lover of foundation and I have an impressive collection at home. I've been using more from Clarins the last year and I've really started to love the brand. Two of their newest products are face related with a new foundation and powder duo but are they really all that?
