Mini Haul ft Liz Earle, Lush and Philosophy
My favourite Fragrance Brand : Philosophy State of grace
Lush : Rose Jam
Liz Earle : Cleanse and Polish
Ok so christmas is over, still need a pick me up from the January Blues and the cold winter? Yes! So i decided to do a bit of shopping, feeling the need for a bit of retail therapy. Firstly have you ever found yourself watching tv shopping channels thinking hmm, i need that gadget that looks great totally pointless but i like it? then thats me! im a fool for a good shopping channel, my fave is QVC. So whilst i was getting ready for work i had the telly on and hear the word 'Philosophy', for thos that dont know Philosophy is a beauty brand that specialises in skincare and fragrance, i love ther 3 in 1 shower gels they smell amazing however there quite on the pricey side. I have loved Philosophy since the beginingand my fave fragrance is Baby Grace, its so pure and calming, not heady and i receive comments on it all the time, unfortunatly its discontinued, so when i saw 'state of Grace featured Baby grace i knew i had to have it, the set comes gift boxed with five fragrances: Baby Grace, Inner Grace, Amazing Grace and Pure Grace, they all smell lovely, if you like a strong smelling fregrance then this set is probobly not for you, you get 5 bottles which are 10mls each the only down side is they arent spray bottles which is a shame but im still in love lol.
Then i needed to pop into town for some bits and pieces and whilst i was in Boots i noticed that they now stock liz earle so i decided to put my points to good use and got two bottles free with my points!!! Ilove my cleanse and polish and have tried dupes which are nice but you cant beat the real thing, i noticed they stocked two facemasks i might try in the future, a clay mask and a moisture mask.
Finally i cant walk past lush without popping in, the store just draws me in its not my fault! thats what i tell myself anyway, so i love the rose jam bubbleroon i think the sent is lovely, quite sweet but nowhere near as sweet as snowfairy which is a super sweet fragrance so i decided to treat myself to a large bottle hoping it will last me.
Have you tried anything new this year? products youve found?
Happy Blogging

Time to face the scales!
Hi, so to follow from my last post i just want to document my weight loss journey so i can look back on and hopefully use it to help me in the future.
So, Thursday 2nd January i embarked on hopefully my final attempt of my weight loss journey and decided to re-join slimming world. I think SW is great if you have a lot of weight to lose as there are no limits on postion sizes and i think when your of a certain size then anything you can do to attempt to lose weight to get started is a bonus. so:
Thursday 9th Jan -8lbs woooo hoooo i am over the moon great :)
Thursday 16th Jan +1lbs not too bad but still a g, nevermind onwards and upwards
So onto my third week and im really positive considering but what i would like to knowm becouse i struggle with finding ways of rewarding yourself that does not involve food, and ideas or hobbies or stratagies that you have to keep you focused, even if your not dieting what do you do in life to treat yourself? Id love to know :)

Happy New Year
Hi, so i know its now the 15th January so its a bit late for a happy new year but i just wanted to welcome in the new year on my blog as a resolution of mine is to really kick start my blog as last year i just had a taster when it comes to blogging. Im still trying to work on the design of my blog to create a design which best reflects myself.
One thing id like to start the year off by doing is creating my resolutions online so i have something to reflect on throught the year and see if i have managed to stick to them.
So heare it goes:
1) Lose Weight - for the avarege woman it would be a few pounds or maybes a couple of stone but for myself my weight loss journey is going to be a long process which will have to involve some major lifestyle changes which i hope to begin this year.
2) Save More-I dont know if its becouse im getting older but money and the lack of it concerns me so this year i aim to save and be more financially secure.
3) Do more stuff- I work, i sleep i work etc and kinda forget about lifes journey so id like to take part in events, meet new people and cherish memories made with friends and family
and finally 5) Laugh more, enjoy life and most of all be happy!
So there, its in black and white i would love to know what your resolutions are and if your sticking to them and the tips/statagies you have to stick to them.
Happy Blogging :)

You tubers who inspire me
Hi everyone,
So back in 2010 i really became interested in watching beauty related videos on youtube, I broke my leg back in july which ment i felt a bit issolated from general day to day life, i wasnnt able to go to work, collage or generally socialise with the outside world due to my injury. Then i discovered youtube, there are some amazing youtubers out there who i really admire, and maybe sad to say but they allow you to enter there world and allow you to disscover amazing products, events and stores that you may generally never come accross.
Im just a normal average 26 year old so who am i to say this but i thought id let you know about the three youtubers/bloggers that i have followed from day one and encourage you to check them out.
1. Sprinkle of glitter
sprinkle of glitter has been created by louise, a mum who has a passion for bauty, fashion andof course her child, baby glitter (so cute). Louises videos are great whether its a boots haul or a vlog of her day to day life, Watching her videos gives you a real insight into her life and an amazzing personality, she is very friendly, funny and very honest about products she talks about.
I must say i have bought many a products based on her reviews, Deffinatly check her out, she has a love for life and a very possitive role model.

Chit-Chat
Hi everyone!
Ok so at the moment im enjoying my blogging experience i love the idea of a little space of the web being dedicated to my opinions/likes etc. The only thing is is that i cant help but look at my blog and crave it to be 'perfect'. Now i know this is unrealistic but i think the graphic designer in me is struggling to keep things so unfinished, so basically im just letting you know im trying to develop and create a place on the web that im proud to call my own, even if only myself views it, everyone is there own worst critic. So if things start changing over the next few days bare with me whilst i try to get it right.
As always any ideas are welcome whether that's beauty reviews you would like to see or general chit chat posts.
again thanks for your support and happy blogging

L'Occitane Almond Oil Review
Ok so i may seem a little late to jump on the band wagon but after finally taking the plunge of purchasing my 2nd bottle of this amazing shower gel i thought it was about time to share my thoughts on this.
Firstly the first thing when i imaging the smell of almond i think of marzipan which immediately put me off purchasing this shower gel, when i was on a shopping trip at metrocentre i thought id call into the L'occitane store and finally smell this amazing shower gel, the smell is so fresh and invigorating and don't get me started on the texture it is an oil but the moment it comes into contact with water it turns into a cream foam which feels so luxurious! Its great as a shower gel or if i feel like a pamper session i run a small amount under a running tap and enjoy a luxry cleopatra bath. Heaven!
I would say if you do nothing else go and smell this shower gel, L'occitane stores are a lot like lush stores in the respect they usually have a bowl with water to try products out. Id definitely recommend this as a treat or would be amazing as a gift.
