Whew, the year is over and I made it without spending too much money on unnecessary things. I mean I did get a few things I didn’t need but I love trying out new products. But I found some items that work better for me. So while I did spend a little extra money, I found a few new things to add to my 2019 favorites. My skincare and makeup routines hasn’t changed much so if you’d like to check…
It felt like the end of summer crashed down on me! One day everyone was in shorts and the next we were bundled up tight. Thankfully I haven’t had to change up my skin routine too much. What worked for me in the summer is working pretty well now for my autumn skincare. It’s always amazing to find a year round routine but I need to test it during the winter before I can make that claim! Allow me to…
I’m pretty good at buying things that I need and resisting things I want… That is until it comes to nail polish. It’s an obsession where I just can’t help myself! I usually spend at least a month debating on the pros and cons of buying a new shade. And while I do pretty well at saying no, there are definitely times where I just have to say yes. And the wonderful thing about Autumnal nail polish, is that there…
This is it guys. I might have found my holy grail foundation and concealer. NYX’s Can’t Stop Won’t Stop Full Coverage Foundation has been nothing but perfect for me since I bought it. I heard rave reviews from Youtubers and knew I had to try it for myself. I’ve been on the lookout for a cheaper and better shade to use in my makeup routine. I’m finding it so hard to justify spending so much money on makeup… Since moving to…
It’s been a few months since we went to Lush but we’ve finally started to use what we bought. We go through soap pretty slowly so we’re able to stockpile a few special items here and there. Here’s what we’ve been using and why they’re my current Lush Favorites! Iceshoggles Soap This one was a winter Lush exclusive so it’s no longer available for sale… But Iceshoggles is a beautiful and fresh scent that’s hard to describe. It’s got my…
Here it is, my simple Autumn Makeup Routine. It’s not fancy and it’s not amazing. It’s usually a 5 minute face. When I lived in America my routine was so much longer. I find that as I get older, I want to spend less time in the bathroom. But I do still have imperfections I want to cover. Before I apply makeup I start off with my skincare routine. I like to mix my Ordinary High-Spreadability Fluid Primer in with…
Skincare routines should change as the seasons do and I’m sure we all have our perfect Autumn skin routine. Since I finally have mine all sorted out I thought it would be a good idea to share. I’ve been using these products for a while now and they do my skin wonders. Not everyone needs toner in their life but I do. The first step of my Autumn skin routine beings with the cleanse. I use The Body Shop’s Tea Tree…
The Lush Halloween 2018 collection has been out for a few weeks now. I’ve been waiting to tell you guys all about it! We didn’t pick up any bath items because it’s too difficult to find the time for a bath. It may be months before we used the items and they have “best fresh by” dates. Instead we went for the more practical (for us) items. Ectoplasm Shower Cream This was the first item in my basket. It’s a…
The thing about skincare, is that it takes time to see real results. I’ve been using a few new items from THE ORDINARY. I’ve heard a lot of good things about the brand and have been wanting to try it for a while now. It’s a no nonsense brand where the user decides on what they want out of skincare. There’s a product for every concern and it’s easy to put together an arsenal that’s personalized to your needs. I know…
