I mentioned in my Cold Brewed Coffee recipe that I kept the used coffee grounds so I could make an exfoliator- well I made it, and it turned out really well so I thought Id share the recipe...
Im going camping this weekend (in fact I may already be there are you read this) and unlike last years camping trip, Im going proper camping with a local Guide group- that means well be in ...
My sister ended up being the first to use one of my new polishes- she painted her nails last Saturday evening (whilst watching Eurovision) and excitedly picked out Luxe and Lush; Im not sure if ...
I picked up this new lip balm in the poundshop about a month ago, and Ive been using it a lot recently-I thought it was about time I gave it my review :)The tube contains 5g of product (retailin...
As weve had such nice weather recently (and Im really hoping it lasts because Im going camping at the weekend!) Ive been craving nice cool drinks- and cold brewed coffee is perfect for me (nice and c...
This is one of the 52 week challenge themes Ive been quite looking forward to- Ive actually been wanting to do it for some time :) I originally had about 4 different ideas for this week (po...
Once again I was struck with the I dont know what to post on Sunday problem, but as Ive been sitting outside almost all day- I used a lot of suncream (I think I may have a teency but of tan!), a...
OK so its time for part 2- Im sorry I couldnt post it all together- there is just too much and I have/had about 25 pictures so I thought it might get a bit tedious! Anyway, I hope youll remember that...
As I posted earlier I was super-super excited to recieve my swap package from Pryanka today (Ive literally been smiling constantly since it arrived!) and after swatching polishes and testin...
My swap package from Pryanka arrived today- I literally squealed as the postman handed it to me (I dont think he was amused...in fact I think he thought I was some kind of nutcase!) And OMG the ...
I decided to take full advantage of the lovely weather (yay!!!) today and sit outside; I lounged about reading magazines, watching a couple of episodes of Being Human (Im finally ...
As I mentioned last week, I somehow completely forgot to review my hairbrush, and as I did that I thought I should review my tangle teaser brush too- because I love it just as much!I won th...
Its one of my sisters friends birthdays this week, and I (as usual) was tasked with the gift purchasing. Apparently Amy has become well-known with her friends for always giving her friends nail polis...
This weeks 52 week challenge theme is, I have to admit, not one of my favourites- I had a feeling (which turned out to be correct) that it wouldnt really suit my short nails. However, I am very excit...
I always find it hard to write blog posts on Sundays- Im not entirely sure why, though I think it possibly has something to do with the fact that I usually spend it doing nothing useful with my ...
Today has been freezing cold and very grey outside- naturally I decided that the only sensible option was to shut myself inside with plenty of coffee and hot chocolate and lots of warm lay...
I made a little shopping trip today, and ended up picking up quite a lot in Boots- there were a few things I needed and several things I wanted!First of all, Ive nearly used up my current moisturiser...
Sorry there was not blog post yesterday- Wednesdays have been really busy for me recently, and my sister and I had two episodes of Glee to watch! :)Anyway, I decided a couple of days ago that Id quit...
So I was absentmindedly brushing my hair this morning (surely Im not the only person who randomly stares out of the window whilst brushing my hair for 10 minutes straight?) and I realised that Ive no...
This weeks 52 week challenge theme is another simple colour one- orange! As usual I wondered for a while what to do, and remembered that Ive been wanting to try out that odd gloopy/stringy (I wonder ...
For some reason Ive spent a rather large proportion of today watching random youtube clips of comedians and comedy sketches! And as Im really not in the mood for writing anything beauty related (its ...
Today my sister and I were once again stuck in that awkward position of craving immediate cake (watching the BGT final!) and not having any eggs! After a little searching I came across...
Once again I was struck with the usual indecision for todays NOTD... I wanted to use a colour that Ive not used in a while- and (eventually) decided that brown seemed to fit that bill rathe...
Sorry if you missed me yesterday, I had another crazy busy day- and then I didnt get home from Brownies until 9.30 (Ive still not seen this weeks Apprentice!) as we we had a planning meeting aft...
I went into town today to get some stuff done, and couldnt help but pop into poundland (again) and yet again, I found a couple of bargains :) I was actually so busy that I didnt even make it into Boo...
Well its week 32 (already!) and this weeks 52 week challenge theme is flowers- which I was somewhat annoyed to remember today, as I did a floral stamp pattern on my nails last week and I general...
I wasnt sure I was going to post a review on this palette, because I know it was a special edition and I didnt want to review something that is totally impossible to get hold of! But I looked around ...
I wanted to use up some dark chocolate (for some reason we have lots in the house and nobody really eats it!) I had my heart set on a chocolate fridge cake, but I couldnt find a recipe I particularly...
I apologise if youre fed up of seeing purple on my nails- I realised after I painted my nails that more than a few of my recent NOTD posts (not including 52 week challenge posts) have involved some k...
Currently Loving! :)I think Im finally starting to get a little more adventurous with my eye make up- Im mean not hugely, but Ive worn shades that are not neutrals at least 3 times this month! Though...
