Looking After Your Wellbeing This Summer
LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED FOR PRODUCTS NO LONGER ON SALE The summer is one of those “extreme” seasons, like Winter.. with Spring and Autumn acting as in between seasons. I think I feel this way with living in the UK, Autumn and Spring are very samey where as Summer and Winter are two opposites. In Winter you make sure you’re prepared with warm clothes, thick moisturiser and lip balm to protect against the harsh elements where as summer there are different sorts of precautions you have to take to ensure you and your family stay well in the sun. First up, there is ensuring you have the right clothing. Hats…

Harajuku Lovers Fragrance Pop Electric G Review
Harajuku Lovers Pop Electric G Fragrance 30ml* RRP £24.95, Debenhams I have said many times before, but on the whole I’m very loyal to the Marc Jacob’s range of perfumes, however I’m always open to trying something new, especially at the start of a new season when I’m on the hunt for that “signature scent”. Back in my late teens, I had a lovely collection of Gwen Stefani’s Harajuku Lovers collection of perfumes, mainly because the cute little figures on the top of the bottle appealed. I wouldn’t say I out grew them, but once they were empty, my then boyfriend started replacing them with bottles of Daisy and Lola.…

Jim Beam Bourbon Sauce Review
Has anyone actually managed to have a barbeque this year yet? I know we haven’t which is driving my dad crackers at the moment. However to cheer him up I’ve got him a new sauce to marinate the chicken in before it hits the coals, Jim Beam Bourbon Sauce*. I of course had to give it a try, he doesn’t like to flavour his meat with anything but the best (he considers himself to be a bit of a barbeque conciser) and today I’m going to share some thoughts with you on the stuff. The bottle itself is styled on the shape of a hipflask which I think is a…

Escentual Haul, June 2016
LINKS HAVE BEEN REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE I know people are very torn when it comes to hauls, some love them, some hate them. Well I’m one of the ones that love them. I love seeing what people have been buying because if I’m perfectly honest, it inspires me to go out and buy stuff too.. which of course is a bad thing but sometimes I really don’t care. I don’t often get to have a real spree, usually it’s just in Primark or while on holiday, I just don’t have that kind of money (mainly because i’m squirreling it away for adventures). Anyway, last week pretty…

Getting Your Feet Summer Ready*
ALL LINKS REMOVED AS ITEMS NO LONGER FOR SALE Warning, this post contains discussion of feet. Although I’m someone who is completely against the whole notion of “summer ready bodies” as I feel it’s a personal choice as to whether or not you want to wear a swimsuit in public, lets face it, feet are a different story. I’m not even going to sugar coat this, but I have pretty gross feet. Years of dancing and waitress have left them ravaged and the fact my feet don’t actually sweat means there is little moisture in them. During the winter I’ll admit to the fact I’ve become complacent, I haven’t kept…

Annabelle’s Wigs Carly Review – Briar Rose Style
As I mentioned in my post about things i’m looking forward to this summer, I mentioned I was excited about going to SFCC with Bee. Well last week we decided who we were going to cosplay this year. Last year at LFCC we cosplayed Ariel & Vanessa (Ursula’s human form) and although we do have a few ideas for more doubles, we decided to go for two not 100% related ideas. Mine was routed in the fact the lovely people at Annabelle’s Wigs had allowed me to choose a wig to style and review. I’d been sent a beautiful which I knew would eventually make a perfect Briar Rose wig.…
