It’s time to Go Bananas for The Body Shop new range of body care products. They’re special edition and I had to get them up on the blog asap, as the range smells delicious, just like foam bananas! So, on Friday, Melissa and I were invited along to a blogger event at my local The Body Shop store to try out the new seasonal banana skincare range. I got a wonderful little hand and arm massage using the new body yoghurt, got to make my own personalised body butter sticker and got the most amazing makeover. The new skincare range…
Over the years, I’ve been a brunette, a blonde and a redhead. My hair has become an utter mess due to constant experimentation with it, and I’ve been hating it for awhile now. I was trying to grow my natural hair colour out, in the hopes that I would have long, healthy, natural hair in time for my graduation. Or, at the very least, have natural hair that a hairdresser could transform in November, in time for my birthday and master’s graduation. But spending months scraping my hair back into a bun to hide the ever-growing mess was another thing…
Roses have been used for centuries to give a feminine note to perfume . Therefore a rose scented perfume is perfect as the first perfume to be released by Marks and Spencer for their ‘Rosie for Autograph’ collection… (image source) “As with my lingerie collection, I was drawn to the elegance and simplicity of the centifolia rose used in the fragrance. A rare, vintage style flower, it really encapsulates what this fragrance is about to me – a fresh yet mysterious scent, which feels luxurious and sexy” Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. I have always been a big fan of Rosie…

Hello Guys! I’m doing a bit of a different post for me- a little haul! I originally intended to just grab some things that I just needed to stock up on but when I saw the beauty section on Chemist4U, I had to check it out. One of my goals this year is to branch out and try new products so I thought I’d have a look for some new things! As a student, I’m always looking for some bargains. When I had a look at their beauty specials page, it took me a little while to go through and decide what…
I am all about ease and getting through my daily routine as quickly as possible so a palette that makes my makeup routine quicker- I am all for. So when I found a dupe of the infamous Too Faced Chocolate Palette for £6, I had to have it! Come through Primark with the budget-friendly options! Primark has always been a place where I’ve found incredibly bargains which are student budget friendly. When the student loan hit, I was straight off to Primark to do some clothes shopping but I was also on the hunt for some of their new Chocolate…
In October, I headed down to London for the Three Discovery Store event. Since that was in the afternoon and I got to London in the early morning, I had quite a few hours to kill. I hadn’t been in London for ages so decided to go for a bit of an explore with my camera. What I did find through twitter, was that FeelUnique had a pop-up shop! Back in October I headed down to London for a flying visit for a couple of blogger events and had the morning free. So, in order to get to see more…

Hi Everyone! Last week, I attended the KISS VIP event in Newcastle and was completely blown away by an incredible evening.

I was so excited to be invited as I had seen KISS all over social media in the past few weeks and immediately replied with an ecstatic yes when I saw they were hosting an…
