The Body Shop Skincare

If you saw my post on the #DareToMask event at the beginning of the month, you'll have seen that I recently attended an event with The Body Shop at West Quay to celebrate the launch of their new face masks. As part of that event, we were given one-to-one skin consultations. Obviously, once I'd been given the correct guidance and shown the ranges that would be best for my skin, I may have done a spot of shopping.

September Book Haul

I'm sure you know by now that I love a good book, and popping to Waterstones and browsing the shelves, and normally come out with a book or two. Or five, in this case. I really like seeing what books other people are buying at the moment, and adding them to my wishlist, so I think I'll start including a few more book posts here. Now let's get down to the books.

September Boots Haul

It's been a while since I really explored the displays at my local Boots beauty hall, so on a recent solo trip into town, I took my time to really peruse the counters, and pick up a few new items. There had been some new launches that I wanted to try, and a couple of products that had been around for a while but that I wanted to pick up. The damage to my bank card was impressive, but it provides the perfect topic for today's post.

SotonBloggers Freakshakes Event

If you follow me on Instagram or Twitter, you'll have probably seen that at the beginning of September, I met up with a group of the SotonBloggers at Orange Rooms, for an afternoon of chatting, selfies and delicious Freakshakes, and I'm sharing the experience here today.

Sephora Italy Haul

How do you know your bestie really is a keeper? When she fully understands the draw of a Sephora, and brings you home a bag of goodies from her trip to Italy. And that's exactly what Ashleigh did for me this summer - so lovely of you babe! I was so excited when I dove into the bag, and wanted to share the contents of the bag with you here today.

Lush Oxford Street Haul

A trip up to London would not be complete for any beauty lover without a trip to Lush Oxford Street right? With all those exclusive products, and the many floors of Lush goodness, it's just irresistible. So it's come as no surprise that I have come home with a little bag full of goodies to share with you today.

The Plain White Tee OOTD

Dressing for an event can be tricky, especially if, like me, you're not a fashionista. It can take me a good while trying different combinations on before settling on a suitable outfit. It happened before the SotonBloggers Freakshake event (blog post on that coming soon), and I actually really liked what I wore, and thought I'd share my outfit details with you today.

Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips

I can't seem to take a trip to London without stopping off in Selfridges. And when I wander the beauty hall of Selfridges, I seem to end up at Charlotte Tilbury, with a lipstick in hand. And last week was no different. The counter were celebrating the launch of Charlotte's new fragrance, but my attention was focused on the Hot Lips Collection, and I knew one would be coming home with me.

#DareToMask Launch with The Body Shop

Last week, I was invited to The Body Shop at West Quay to celebrate the launch of their new collection of face masks. I love visiting The Body Shop for my bath time needs, but I rarely look at their skincare offerings. So when I had the chance to hear more about these face masks, and see what they had to offer, I gladly headed down for an evening of fun and face masks with the some of the lovely sotonbloggers, Anna and Chloe.

August Favourites

Somehow, another month has come to an end, and September is upon us. And while I have loved the summery days we've had recently, I'm secretly looking forward to Autumn - the layered clothing and the dark lips. However, there have been some makeup favourites that I've loved throughout August. I've discovered a few new favourites, maintained a few loves, and rediscovered a few golden oldies, and thought I'd share them here today.
