February Favourites

Hi lovelies, I hope you're all well? As we're nearly at the end of the month I thought it would be the perfect time to show you some of the products I've been loving using throughout February.

My parents bought me a Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish set for Christmas and I finally started using it this month (I had some other products to use up first). Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish is a product which has a lot of hype surrounding it and so far I'm not disappointed, it removes my make-up effectively and leaves my skin feeling soft too. I just need to stop being lazy and use this product more often (*hides the make up wipes*).

Beauty: A Mini Feel Unique Haul

Recently I decided to make my first beauty splurge of 2016, by treating myself to a few new items from Feel Unique. I love having a nosey at what other people have been buying so I thought I'd do a little haul post to show you the things I treated myself to.

NYX Cosmetics was recently added to Feel Unique and after hearing good things about the brand I finally gave in to the hype and I decided to pick up a couple of items to try for myself. I chose a NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in the shade 'Copenhagen'. I've been looking for a new eyebrow palette for a little while and I really liked the look of the NYX Eyebrow Cake Powder Kit, which I picked up in the shade Dark Brown/Brown.

In the beauty world there's been a lot of hype surrounding the Limited Edition Urban Decay Gwen Stefani range, being a fan of both Urban Decay and Gwen Stefani I had to treat myself to something from the range. I decided to go with an Urban Decay Gwen Stefani Lipstick in the shade 'Spider Web', a stunning deep red shade which I can't wait to wear.

January Favourites

Hi lovelies, I hope you're all well?

It's been a few months since I last did a monthly favourites post, mainly because I'd been sticking to using the same products. However, I did mix my beauty routine up a little bit in January as I tried some new beauty products and also made some welcome rediscoveries.

I've noticed that as the weather has got colder my skin has become much drier than usual. To try and combat the effects of the Winter weather I've been attempting to get myself a proper exfoliating and moisturising routine going. As well as using a daily moisturiser I've also been using Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Face Mask a couple of times a week to give my skin some much needed hydration.

I'm not really a regular user of false tan (especially not in the Winter time) however I've really been enjoying using Cocoa Brown Gentle Bronze, a gradual tanner which I have been using to both hydrate my skin and to give me a little bit more of a subtle sun kissed glow.

Fashion: Cherry Diva Custom Hand Stamped Bangle Review & Giveaway

I've always been a fan of personalised items and even though I'm an adult I can't deny that I do still tend to get a little bit giddy when I spot something an item which has my name on. Last year I stumbled across an online costume jewellery store called Cherry Diva and  I was instantly drawn to their custom personalised cuff bangles. So much so that I decided to buy myself one personalised with my blog name. 

All the personalised cuff bangles are handmade, hand stamped and are made from a hypo-allergenic material which means that the bangle shouldn't tarnish or discolour the skin. Each bangle measure 15cm in length and can be stamped with up to 30 characters (including spaces) - which can be a mixture of letters,numbers and symbols. A full list of the characters you can choose to have stamped on your custom bracelet can be found here.

As the bangles are hand stamped no two will ever be exactly the same and this does mean that some of the lettering can appear not to be perfect, however personally I feel that this gives the bangles character and makes them truly one of a kind. I think a custom bangle is a lovely costume jewellery piece to have and I still enjoy wearing it regularly,despite having had mine for a while now.

The lovely people over at Cherry Diva Store have very kindly teamed up with me to give you, my lovely readers, the chance to win your very own customised hand stamped bangle. All the terms and conditions and the entry form can be found below:
