March was a good month, I enjoyed it immensely. I went back up north for a week and spent time with my family; I hadn’t seen them since my birthday in January so it was nice to spend a few days there. I also got to pick my 4 year old nephew up from nursery…

The Body Shop All-In-One BB Cream and Instaglow CC Cream
I’m always on the hunt for a light base that I can slap on quickly and it give me enough coverage that I’m not looking like a corpse (#TeamNoSleep) or something that helps me feel a bit more put together. I have temperamental skin, it’s either pretty decent or a train-wreck, and I’m not confident…
Vincent Longo Cosmetics
I’ve only recently been introduced to Vincent Longo Cosmetics but the brand was founded in 1995 by celebrity makeup artist Vincent Longo. It’s a luxury brand that is loved by beauty editors, models, actors and makeup artists. And *spoiler alert* this little beauty adoring blogger.VL Cosmetics packaging is sleek black with aqua lettering. I like…
February Favourites
I must admit, I’ve not worn a lot of makeup this month because I’ve been in a bad pain flare. And then my skin was awful, and to top it all off, the last two weeks I’ve had colossal cold sores. There’s nothing more of a deterrent to cosmetics than a scabby face and mouth….
Beauty Haul: High End and High Street
I can’t remember the last time I shared a beauty haul but I’m pretty sure it was a while ago. However, fear not, I’m back to show you some goodies I’ve bought (and won) over the last two weeks. It was my 30th birthday in January and I received a few Boots gift vouchers (which…
Top 10 Holy Grail Products featuring Mermaid in Disguise
Today is an exciting post as I’m writing this in collaboration with my wonderful twin (we were separated at birth a few years apart, don’t question it), Beth from Mermaid in Disguise. Beth was one of my first spoonie blogger friends and we chat all day every day about absolutely nothing all things important (with…
Valentine’s Day Makeup Look
As much as I love makeup, I realised that I only usually feature it in reviews or hauls. So, I thought I’d actually create a look and show you what I came up with. And since it’s Valentine’s Day next week, what better time to paint my face. Now, I’m not a professional makeup artist,…
January Favourites
Whaaa, how are we in February 2017? Scratch that, we’re in 2017, I don’t know about you but even typing that seems weird. So, January run-down, the main thing – I turned 30. Yeah, I know, I only look 22 right? Is that a push? Anyway, I digress, January was extremely exciting. Other than my…
Make Up For Ever Pro Light Fusion Highlighter Review
I treated myself to this when I ordered the Too Faced Sweet Peach palette as I’d wanted it for a while and I’m all about that glow. As soon as it arrived I swatched it on the back of my hand and wasn’t disappointed. Make Up For Ever Pro Light Fusion Highlighter – 01 Golden…
Shadow Switch Dry Brush Cleaner Review
The Shadow Switch has been popping up all over social media lately, and I’ve seen countless blog posts about it so I needed to give it a go to see what all the hype was about. I’m all for jumping on a bandwagon and I have to admit was pretty cynical about this product so…
