The Body Shop Coconut Body Scrub Review
A few weeks ago I was asked if I’d like to review a product from The Body Shop. I jumped at the chance as I’m sure by now you know I’m a fan of their products, in particular the body butters (but then again, who isn’t?!) The product I received was the Coconut Body Scrub* which I was pretty pleased with. I’ve only just started to use coconut products again after years of abstinence due to drinking too much Malibu in my teens, the smell made me queasy. That was until I started to use the moisturising Herbal Essence shampoo and conditioner, the one in the blue bottle. It smells…

Recipe No.18 Homemade Katsu Chicken
The day I go for my big grocery shop always guarantees that I’ll feel more like experimenting in the kitchen. Last night of course was no exception. This is mainly because I make a list of new recipes to try and what ingredients I need to buy to make them. Topping my list for meals to make was Chicken Katsu. It’s been a while since I had my first and only chicken Katsu at Wagamamas back in May and there is the odd day when I crave it but with the nearest restaurant being well over an hour a way it’s not somewhere I can just pop to for lunch!…

#224 Town Mouse Vs City Mouse
Credit It’s now been well over a year since I moved back to my hometown. And I know you’re not supposed to slate where you come from, but as i’ve mentioned before, I just don’t belong here and I have more reasons why I don’t enjoy living here than why I do. I’ve been really down lately, which I think is one of the things causing me not to sleep because I’ve been missing my three best friends. I hate having to turn down plans because I can’t get an overnight babysitter, or even just a day babysitter. As much as I love my family, it’s so dull only having…

London Retro Jubilee Frames Review
I don’t know how many of you know that I need glasses.. well just in case you didn’t know, this is me telling you I do. I’m short sighted, meaning objects in the distance appear blurred, this is getting progressively worse to the point I have to go over to the TV to see the Sky listings or if I try and read road signs I give myself a headache. As being short sighted isn’t something that happens with age, it’s either genetic or environment. My dad even at 52 still had perfect vision and my mother is long sighted so the optician has suggested the problems with my vision…

Kiehl’s Super Multi-Corrective Cream Review
I am so tired tonight as I really struggled to sleep last night for one reason or another, but as usual I still felt the need to blog. I don’t know how many of you saw my Biotherm Blue Therapy Serum-In-Oil review the other day, but I mentioned that it wasn’t solely responsible for my skins dramatic improvement and by dramatic improvement I don’t mean spots, I mean the fact I no longer look like a member of the cast of The Walking Dead. Tonight I’m reviewing the other product that I now can no longer live without, Kiehl’s Super Multi-Corrective cream* Since my Kiehl’s skincare consultation at the Nottingham…

Does A Stitch In Time Really Save Nine? *
It’s come to that time of year again where people start thinking about Halloween costumes, for me it’s been a long time since I personally had to think of my own Halloween costume. Last year I had Little Miss who was dressed as a very cute make shift pumpkin fairy, the year before I was heavily pregnant. Before that I went through a phase of following the Mean Girls “slut” rule, back then I very much had the body for it so it’s been quite a while since I dressed up for Halloween in more than a pair of animal ears from Claires. Thankfully I didn’t have to really put…
