Last week after a particularly rough morning at work I declared I was going to my “happy place” at lunch time, the TK Maxx Makeup and Beauty Aisle. Fully expecting to be a grubby shit-show thanks to it being school holidays and for teenagers to be in there more often than normal disrespecting the makeup […]

Almost two weeks ago I had a gorgeous delivery from the team over at Marks and Spencer’s featuring their essential heroes from skincare, picking out the stars of the show from both their home brand lines as well as showcasing their top picks from the wide range of brands they also stock. It goes without […]

Over the past month or so I’ve picked up a handful of items and I’ve been waiting for them all to slowly arrive. I was convinced I’d pick up at least one new thing whilst in London at the weekend but I didn’t actually do any shopping. I’m now on the 7th of the month […]

I’ve had a good few weekends away, days in London and one too many naughty small orders here and there over the past month. I thought I wouldn’t really be hauling anything as it “wasn’t that much” until I thought about it and thought – “no you did buy a fair bit” and once it […]

I must congratulate myself for being a much better behaved human this year. At Christmas I made a vow to myself to start being really considerate about what I was adding into my collection as well as making an active effort to use things up and so far this year there’s been one haul after […]

I know what you’re thinking. “Wasn’t you meant to be on a no buy?” and yes I am. This was an order that was placed at the middle of December and thanks to Christmas it meant it was a little slow arriving. You may remember mid last year I hauled some items from Colourpop and […]

It’s a bit of a tradition for me to spend my collected Boots points after Christmas whilst the sales are on. The Christmas gift sets are reduced heavily and it’s normally the best time in the year to pick up things like perfume whilst all their gifting range is around 50% off. We also got […]

I did my first one of these posts last year which went down really well so I thought I would share again what I/We got for Christmas this year. This year, as last year we both got quite a lot of cash as part of our presents some of which I’ve already spent so I […]

I wouldn’t normally post little hauls like this but the items I picked up were too gorgeous not to share so I thought I would throw this in as a little weekend bonus post for you. I, and lots of my friends had been patiently waiting for a certain holiday collection to launch on Beauty […]

Whoops, my finger slipped – in the week running up to Black Friday I was on Beauty Bay quite a lot looking at their deals, I feel like they were on one of the few online retailers this year that actually had a decent, genuine sale – which it became no surprise that the site […]

I’m trying to be good, with Christmas upcoming and it’s the time of year where almost everyone has a birthday for the next three months, but equally it’s the best time of year for makeup. Limited edition packaging, bundles of beauty, gift sets and mini sizes galore. I’ve already shared my MAC haul of the […]
