#TanningThursday - Mousse or Lotion?


Fake Tan, Cocoa Brown, St Moriz, Mousse, Lotion, Self Tanner, Beauty

I know it may not be everybody's cup of tea but self tanning is something that has become quite a big part of my life and it's because of this that I thought it would be a good idea to start a new series called #TanningThursday.

A Weekend Away in Pictures


Weekend Away, Swan, Stratford Upon Avon, Oxford, Pretty

I recently went on a trip to see one of my closest friends who now lives in Rugby with her boyfriend. Whilst I was visiting them they took me on a glorious tour of Stratford Upon Avon and Oxford. Going to Oxford got me as excited as a little girl at Christmas, as I watch Lewis so much I have developed a small obsession with the city. I have truly never enjoyed sightseeing more and I thought I would share some of the memories from my trip.

Aveeno Daily Moisturising Lotion - My Thoughts


Aveeno, Moisturiser, Lotion, Cream, Skincare

I have always heard good things about the Aveeno moisturising lotions. The skin on my arms has a tendency to be very rough, no matter what I seem to do, so I thought that I would pick some up and give it a go.

50 Things You Didn't Know About Me


Me, Selfie, Facts, 50, About Me

I have written quite a few get to know me posts - which you can read about here, here and here - but they never seem to get old, more so because I enjoy writing them. On that note I thought I would put together 50 random facts about me - maybe you know them, maybe you don't.

Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette - First Impressions


Urban Decay, Naked, Smoky, Palette, Make-Up, Eyeshadow

When Urban Decay released their Naked Smoky Palette last year, I immediately wanted it. For me it was the perfect palette. All the eye looks that I tend to do have always been on the smokier side, with my love for a shimmery inner corner growing in the past six months. I'm the kind of person who wont rush out and buy something that is hyped up by the beauty world straight away - no matter how much I want it. It has taken me quite a while to decide to purchase this palette, but I finally did it!

Maybelline Fit Me Poreless Matte Foundation - First Impressions


Maybelline, Fit Me, Foundation, Base, Poreless, Matte, Make-Up

I have always been a fan of the Maybelline Fit Me Foundation. There is something about it that just suits my skin but being - dare I say it - a bit of a foundation slut, I haven't gone back to it in a long time.  This has all changed however, when I saw this newer formulation which I have heard had previously been only available in the USA.

My Go To Lipstick of The Moment - Rimmel Kate No. 30


Make-Up, Rimmel, Lipstick, Kate Moss, 30, Red, Vamp

Some days call for a dark vampy, red lip. Does everybody not have days like that - or is it just me? I always like to put on a darker lip on days that are more miserable as I find that it makes me feel put together - which is never a bad thing.
