Sunday night routine

I'm going to add my Sunday night routine into the blogosphere as it would seem we all have a little extra pampering routine going on.
Here's the products I love using.


On a Sunday I always use a clarifying shampoo to get rid of the weeks build up of products. At the moment I'm loving this Philip B Peppermint & Avocado shampoo. It makes your hair feel so clean fresh and bouncy. I'm also loving this Charles Worthington mask at the moment too so I pop that in my hair for a few minutes before washing it. (I'm still doing the whole reverse washing thing).


My current favourite shower products are all by Soap & Glory. This smell is my absolute favourite and it isn't the original. Also their breakfast scrub just works wonders. I use this alllllllll the time, it smells so yummy and nothing softens my skin quite like it. The moisturiser is surprisingly light, absorbs quickly and leaves me super soft and silky. Usually these are on 3 for 2 at Boots so I pick them up while they are on offer.


On to the face. In the shower I'll use a microdermabrasion scrub by No7. I've been using this for years. And follow that later by cleansing, toning and moisturising. I don't switch up skincare regularly as you need to be careful as to not confuse the hell out of your skin. In my opinion if something works then stick with it.


Lastly I like to do a pedicure on a Sunday night and seeing as Autumn is upon us im going towards more red berry shades.

I'll follow all this by an early night, lovely cosy pyjamas and a good book :)

What you NEED from Sephora

Hey my lovelies Happy Friday. Yep that's right I'm attempting to stick to post schedule:) So after ordering a few times from Sephora online I've found a few products that i absolutely love that you totally need to order too.
Excuse some of these well loved looking products.


Bite Lip Agave Mask - this is just beautiful! It's super thick, moisturising and has a yummy vanilla scent. I put this on twice a day, at night and pre lipstick in the morning. It gives you new lips literally and will probably be my saviour during winter.

Hair Ties - These little badboys are something else. They hold my heavy hair up during workouts and don't leave pesky creases either!

Pro Airbrush Brush - This allows me to buff in my Kevin Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer under my eyes effortlessly and gives such a flawless finish. I love all the brushes I've tried so far but this hands down is my favourite.

Tarte Camera Flashes Mascara - I didn't really think anything could come close to my YSL Faux Cils Shocking but this absolutely does. It's a little cheaper, has a plastic wand with different sized bristles at each side of the wand too. It just allows you to grab each lash and really give it length and volume. I even like using it on my bottom lashes which I usually find such a faff.

Tarte Marajuca Lip Scrub - My favourite lip scrub to date. I'm bored of the Lush one and have been for a while, this however has smaller particles and is mixed with an oil so while it exfoliates your lips yet it doesn't strip them bare. I use this twice a day before my lip mask.

Hope your all well and have enjoyed my Sephora recommendations.

It's been over a month!




Hey ladies, hope you are all doing great. It's been over a month since I blogged and I think that's the longest in 3 years it's ever been! I have a few new posts scheduled for this week so keep an eye out for those. Can't believe it's Autumn now yet still warm. I'm ordering warm cosy clothes online yet I'm still wearing my summer dresses :)
I've seen an Autumn Tag kicking around so I might get started with that. x

Copenhagen made me do it!

So you guys know I was on holiday in Copenhagen recently and obviously no holiday is complete without a little shopping. This haul was over a few days. The shops I visited include Sephora, Magasin (Department store in Copenhagen) and Duty Free.


I've already started using a few of these bits as I couldn't wait to take pictures so I'll give you ladies the low down soon enough :)
This is the beauty side of my haul. Recently I have also been picking up more accessories so I'll take a few pictures and be sure to post them on here. Have a lovely week x

Charlotte Tilbury Brand Overview

Hi my lovelies,
A slightly different type of post from me today, I'm doing a brand overview. I may start doing a few more of these along the way but no promises! Today we are going to look at Charlotte Tilbury. A world famous make up artist who has created her own brand. It is available to buy online or in Selfridges. This niggles at me slightly as I don't have a Selfridges nearby so when purchasing these eye wateringly pricey products I'm relying solely on the website itself and other beauty bloggers swatches and reviews. Over time I've picked up a few products so it's time to share my opinions on them.

My stash


I think that all of her products are definitely on the expensive side, however are also of great quality. So in this case you are getting your money's worth, and using these bits on special occasions can make it all the more lovely.
My favourite amongst the bunch are definitely the slim & sculpt brush that literally never leaves my side. The Dolce Vita palette is just stunning and I tend to use this for evenings out or parties, the gold shimmery colour really does pop! The blusher is great quality, finely milled and a nice addition in my collection but nothing over and beyond other high end brands.
My 2 "blah" products are the lipstick and eye crayon. The lipstick is a nice colour and pretty but nothing special, I like the eye crayon but you have to blend it pretty quickly otherwise it sets.

Swatches and shades.
From L - R


Colour Chamelon Eye Crayon 'Amber Haze'

Swish & Pop Blusher 'Love Glow'

Lipstick 'Bitch Perfect'

Luxury Palette 'The Dolce Vita'

I have been eyeing up the magic cream and filmstar bronze for absolutely ages....I'm just not sure they are worth the money yet.
Hope you are all well x
