The Video: Christmas In July

I'm totally aware that you probably all hate me for talking about Christmas already, but the truth of the matter is, IT'S COMING FOLKS. I've spent the last few weeks visiting Christmas press previews, and having a sneak peak at what will be hitting the shops for the festive season!

In this vlog I visit five different press days, for M&S, Rumour PR, Amazon, Oliver Bonas & Push PR. It was a busy week and I hope you enjoy having a look around with me!

My Evening Routine!

So I thought I'd film my lazy Sunday for you! I quite often spend Sundays alone since my boyfriend works nights in a bar, so I like to have a little pamper time every now and then. This video contains scary face masks, yummy candles, a giant mosquito bite on my forehead, me in pj's, and my cat romancing a tripod. Enjoy!

What's in my Travel Makeup Bag?

I'm on my travels this week in the States, so I thought I'd better let you lovely lot have a rummage through my makeup bag! I'm sort of packing for a lot of different eventualities, meetings, pool time, hot humid city days, and evenings too, so I've got a fair few options! 

I'm back tomorrow (sad face) but I'm sure I'll have a cheeky purchase or two to share with you soon!

Have an awesome Sunday guys!

What's in my Carry On Bag?!

Today is my first day in LA! I'm so excited to be back in my favourite city, so have a rifle through my carry on bag with me! 

Also, I'm a notorious overpacker, no normal person would take this much stuff I'm sure!

I hope you've enjoyed travel week! Let me know what you would like to see next month on the blog!

March 2014 Favourites

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSJaiGKRz10]

I asked on Twitter whether you guys would prefer a monthly favourites post or video, and you were pretty much split down the middle, so I figured, I'd just do both! I'm gonna keep this post really brief, so if you want more information on the products, watch the video! 

First up, there are two primers I have been loving, the Maybelline Baby Skin Instant Pore Eraser for keeping my makeup in place all day, and the Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion for maintaining eyeshadow. I've worn both every day this month and think they're great.

I've fallen in love with the MAC Mineralize Skinfinish in Lightscapade for setting my under-eye concealer, it just really brightens the under eye area and makes me look glowier and healthier. To apply it, I've been using the Real Techniques Contour Brush, which is just perfect for precision powdering. I've also been using this brush to blend out my under eye concealer, it really blends it in whilst leaving as much coverage as possible.

For cheeks I've been obsessed with the Tarte Amazonian Clay 12 Hour blush in Doll Face, it's such a pretty pink that really flatters my (paler than pale) complexion. It's also got amazing lasting power, it really stays put all day. 

I've been using a different lipstick every day, but I have been obsessed with The Body Shop Aloe Lip Care, which totally saved my lips this month, for under £5 you cant find a better lip balm. 

Two haircare products, both from Dove, made the cut this month. The Dove Style + Care Heat Protect Spray smells amazing, detangles your hair after washing and protects against heat styling. I'm rubbish at remembering to use heat protectant, but this smells so good and doubles up a detangler so I've been using it religiously. I've also fallen in love with the Dove Style + Care Nourishing Dry Ends Serum, which you can use on dry hair to smooth out your style, but it also adds nourishment back into dry ends. I've been carrying this around in my handbag and using it throughout the day!

The nail polish I've loving this month is the & Other Stories Polish in Stonewash Jeans, a gorgeous pearlescent powder blue. I am totally obsessed with the colour powder blue right now, hats, bags shoes, they've all been powder blue this month. 

Two non-beauty favourites also deserved a mention, first up the Diptyque Pomander Candle which I finally started burning this month. It's a gorgeous spiced orange scent, not really suited to this time of year but I love it. I've also become obsessed with Clipper Teas, particularly St Clements and Cloud Nine, if you like herbal teas, you need to try this!

What have you been loving this month?

The Video: Currently Loving at The Drugstore

It's here, it finally happened, I am officially in the YouTube world. I enlisted the help of Daphne for this first video, since I was pretty awkward on my own!

We decided to film our current drugstore favourites, five each in this video, then five each on Daphne's Channel too! It took a while because we kept going off on tangents and getting wildly distracted, but it's here now! I hope you enjoy it!
