Beauty
Beauty and skincare reviews and life hacks because you want to be the best you as easily as possible. The best natural products from shampoos to soaps, electronics and beauty subscription boxes. I review the products so you can just go buy them. I do monthly Glossybox , subscription box reviews which also offer the chance to get 20% off your first box too. Hair and makeup hacks are just so much fun. I come up with them to make your life easier (and mine too). Life should be fun and it's far too short to spend time on difficult routines.

January Glossybox Reveal
New year, old box. We’re back to the classic pink for the first Glossybox of the year. This box is all about self care after a season of gluttony, which I for one am up for! I’ve tried my best to look after my skin as best I can this winter but it could always use a little more help.

December Glossybox Review
So here we are, the last of my Glossybox posts for 2017, where has the last year gone! I did consider doing a post about my favourite products that came from these boxes this year but let’s face it, I doubt I’ll have the time unfortunately. Plus, I’ve had so many great things that I think I’d find it hard to narrow them down. I’m probably better off doing a list of things I didn’t like which would just consist of everything from Sleek Makeup (I’m sorry if you like it but see my previous reviews for my reasons). Anyway, I digress as usual. Here’s what the gorgeous December box…

November Glossybox Reveal
It’s that time of the month again and this month it’s on time. I managed to avoid the sneak previews this month even when I went on my Glossy account to do the survey’s and the items were already showing on there! Needless to say, I quickly backed out of the page before the images loaded.

It’s Nice To Be Natural
I was asked a while back to be an ambassador for an amazing company called Nilotic but I’ve only just taken them up on it and that’s thanks to their new range of products.

October’s Cheap & Cheerful Buys
Let’s be honest, everybody loves a bargain, me especially! Being a mum to 2 means any money I earn gets spent on the children so I rarely get anything for myself. I like to try and find things that don’t cost the earth but I feel like I’m treating myself a little. This month I was on the look out for a new face wash, my most recent one was a cleansing milk that came in one of my first Glossybox’s and I tried scouring the internet for more but it was only available from abroad and I’m not paying out for the product then shipping costs! I read through…

October Glossybox Review
Well it didn’t take me long to try the contents of this box! It was a makeup based one though so it was never going to be too long. So this month’s box has been such a big seller it has actually sold out! Clearly a lot of people wanted to find out if they were a #GlossyMermaid or a #GlossyUnicorn.

October Glossybox Reveal
The (quite literally) long awaited arrival of my October box happened yesterday while I was at work so I held out till this morning so I could photograph everything properly. This month sees 2 special edition boxes and everybody has been patiently waiting to find out if they are a #GlossyUnicorn or a #GlossyMermaid. Opening the black box revealed what I already knew, I am Team Unicorn!

My New Hair Saviour!
In previous blog posts I’ve commented on the condition of my hair and how I have to be careful what I use because of it. I have the worst combination of greasy roots and dry ends but with a sensitive scalp which can lead to an itchy, flaky scalp (which is insane given I have naturally greasy roots, I just can’t win!). I’ve been using Herbal Essences volume shampoo and conditioner recently as I found a volume shampoo helps with the greasiness a bit more but I still heavily rely on dry shampoo by the day after I’ve washed my hair and I usually have to wear it up as…

September Glossybox Review
I’m still very much in love with getting a Glossybox each month, it’s nice to try things you wouldn’t necessarily buy yourself. We all have our own beauty routines and favourite products that we don’t stray from so getting this box is a chance to try something new and every so often, you discover a new favourite. So this month we had the classic pink box back for a month and this is what is contained:

September Glossybox Reveal
The months seem to be disappearing far too quickly for my liking, how is it September already! And seriously, what happened to the summer!! It literally lasted about a week I’m sure. It’s definitely feeling like winter now and my food has been changing to suit the weather but now it’s time for my makeup and skin care routine to do the same. This month’s Glossybox is going to help a bit with that.
