Even if I have no other makeup on, I rarely leave the house without mascara. Mascara defines my eyes, makes them look bigger than they are and makes me look more awake than I actually am. Along the way I have managed to form a mini collection of mascaras each with their own purpose and I seriously love all of them so I...
It would be Cocoa's, my beautiful chocolate Labrador's, birthday today. The last one that I thought she would ever get to have. Unfortunately she has been incredibly ill and didn't make it and had to be put down last Friday. She would have been 9 today, 63 in dog years, and I have had her since she was a pup. I still remember the...
I have fine hair which, despite having a lot of it, tends to fall flat and is easily weighed down if I plonk on too many products. It is also quite prone to a bit of breakage and don't even get me started on fly-aways! Because of this difficult combination, I don't tend to use any oils on my hair. I find them...
As the weather is getting warmer again here in England it means I've been able to leave behind my big heavy coats and switch to lighter jackets - until it rains at least. I have one go to outfit recently that I am loving so I thought I would share that with you. I just love the simplicity of it and its casual...
I know this isn't exactly anything ground breaking and there are people out there who have been doing this for years but it is something that I have never tried before, so I thought I would give it a go. By lining your lower waterline with a white eyeliner, it is supposed to create the appearance of brighter, wider eyes. I used the...
It's my not so little, little brother's birthday today. There's 2 and a half years between us but we get mistaken for twins all the time. This picture was taken 4 years ago, he now towers over me and that purple jumper fits him properly. It's a bit scary really because in my head he will forever be 3. We don't always get on,...
Moisturiser is an essential part in any skin care routine and is definitely something we shouldn't be skipping. I've been using The Body Shop Mattifying Moisture Lotion SPF 15 (£12) for a while now and I love it so much. I would say I have combination skin which can sometimes be a bit oily which is exactly what this moisturiser is designed for. This...
Musicals are a great love of mine and always have been. I always find myself singing songs from musicals so I thought I would share with you a few of my favourites. Let's Have A Sing-Along from ciara_cris on 8tracks Radio. What's your favourite musical? Ciara x Twitter ¦ Instagram ¦ Bloglovin' ¦ Tumblr ¦ Pinterest ...
I actually nicked the VO5 Extreme Style Texturising Gum (£4.19) off my brother a while back but it is honestly the best texturising product I have tried. The VO5 Extreme Style Texturising Gum is designed to be worked into hair to give it texture and definition while giving flexible hold. I can honestly say that it does all this and more, it is a...
source When I am feeling extra lazy (every day) there is nothing I love to do more than sit on the sofa with a cup of peppermint tea and a good read. Books are great but sometimes you just want to read something quick that you can dip in and out of. That's where blogs and online magazines come in. I love reading...
