Dermalogica Sebum Clearing Masque From Pure Beauty Review*
Well this is a rarity! A beauty post on Cocktails in Teacups, they haven’t made a regular occurrence for a good year now. Mainly due to the fact that since going to Disney became such a huge part of our life beauty went out the window. Of course I still wear make up, wash my hair, clean my face, I just use high street products or something from my stash. Plus, lets face it, I was never very good at the whole beauty reviews anyway! But a few weeks back the kind people at Pure Beauty sent me over a masque to try, hopefully it was going to be that…

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…

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…

Travel Beauty Heroes for a Summer Holiday
ALL LINKS REMOVED AS ITEMS ARE NO LONGER ON SALE When I was packing to go on holiday, in the back of my mind I was looking to take products that would have me looking my best with minimal effort. I wanted beach babe hair, with healthy looking skin and both protected from the sun. Of course, with it being a summer holiday, de-fuzzing is also a high priority. Nowadays with cameras built into our phones, there is always going to be photographic evidence of what you looked like while at your most relaxed. With the release of the Argan Oil range by Nair, #SkinbyNair is raising awareness of how…

First Impressions With Dermalogica
Wow, it has been ages since I did any sort of beauty post, but today I have one all about my first impressions of Dermalogica. A brand I’d heard plenty about but I’d never tried myself until I was offered the chance. My main reason for accepting the chance to try out Dermalogica is because if i’m brutally honest, my skin is a bloody mess and has been since last August. While I was in the states in the middle of summer, something strange happened to my skin, it went from being sensitive dry to sensitive oily. I have never ever had oily skin but for some reason when I…

My Five Skincare Game Changers
When my Grandfathers both fell ill in November the stress of it all really destroyed my skin. Like really destroyed. I seemed to game these horrible under the skin bumps on my forehead and my chin was constantly a mass of angry red spots. It was gross and horrible. For months I battled. I’d always had dry sensitive skin, and suddenly my forehead and chin were so greasy. Still sensitive but no longer dry as it usually would be in the middle of winter. But my real problem is the acne on cheeks which I really struggled to cure because of my sensitive skin. That meant completely scrapping my old…
