Products I've Used Up #7

I totally forgot to write up this post, these have been long gone for over a month! Eek, but it's better late than never...

Products I've Used Up #6

I haven't done an empties post since September! I have just been adding so much to my collection that I haven't really been using anything up *slaps wrist*, but I have accumulated a few things so here we go.

2013 Favourites Skin and Body Care

Here's my first 2013 favourites post (I know I'm quite late and you're probably sick to death with these posts, so I'll keep it short and sweet!). Today I'll be talking about my stand out skin care and body care products.

September Favourites

And welcome to the latest monthly favourites post ever. I do apologise. But I didn't want to skip September because there have been some products which I have in love with in September.

Current Skincare Routine

Hi everyone! So today I thought I'd share with you all my current skincare routine, I've added a few new things to my routine in the past few months and I'm finally happy and sticking with it.

A Mainly Necessary Haul

I always do a lot of shopping in August as it's my birthday month and it's the month before back to school so I always feel it necessary to stock up and get prepared. As I'm off to uni in a couple of weeks (my goodness) I am just getting all the things I need now so I don't have to worry about it when I get there as I simply won't be able to spend my money on beauty products. Most of these products are things I've actually been needing so there is complete justification for them.

They See Me Haulin'...

...they love it? No? Well, I do. I did a bit of shopping again... but just a bit. (Justification? It was my birthday!)

July Favourites

My gosh it's the end of July, my birthday is in 9 days - ahh - and results are in 15 days - brb fleeing the country - but for now, it's time to share the products I've been using and loving throughout the month of July.

Feeling Peachy

  I've just a been a bit obsessed with all things peach lately so here a few products that have been filling my peachy needs...

Night Time Routine

I firstly wipe away most of my make up with a Simple Cleansing Wipe, I then brush my teeth and then I go ahead and cleanse my face with the Neutrogena Wave which I recently just got and I really love it, it instantly made my skin feel cleaner and softer after just one use. I then use the Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub and after drying my face I either use a thick cream such as this Nivea one which I am currently using or if my skin is feeling a bit dehydrated I put on Origins Drink-Up Intensive Mask which I got for Christmas, this small tube will last me quite a while though as I only use it once or twice a week and you only need a small amount.

I then apply a small amount of Mica Beauty's Age Defying Eye Gel; I use this as I was told it would help reduce dark bags and circles and after using it for quite a while, I can say it does help but using it everyday does dry out my eye area so I only use it when I feel it necessary. I then apply a bit of L'Occitane's Shea Butter on my cuticles, Nuxe's Reve De Miel Lip Balm on my lips, a bit of Soap and Glory's Heel Genius on le feet, go wash my hands and then apply a generous amount of Garnier's Nourishing Hand Cream.

I then finally light a candle and grab a book if I'm not tired out from doing all of that. Phew. Then it's beddy bye.

Hope everyone is doing well! Just a few more days and I'm off to Scotland, yay!

Christmas Gift Guide - Beauty Edition

Hey guys, so for this post I decided to do a Christmas gift guide. It's a good price range so there's something for everyone! And a few (all) of these items are on my wish list... ahem. :)

Lancome Miniature Fragrance Set - £20.40
This is a lovely set of five mini Lancome perfumes. I think this is the fun alternative route of giving someone a perfume or perfume gift set for Christmas. It gives the person a variety and a chance to try out some new perfumes if they haven't already tried them out before.


Soap and Glory Small Wonders Mini Hat Box - £10
I love, love, love Soap and Glory and I think this is such a nice gift to give someone to introduce them to Soap and Glory. There's a bit of everything and for only £10 I think it's a bargain.

Diptyque Figuier Scented Candle - £38
(Not really beauty but it smells great!) Getting someone a luxurious candle to a candle lover would just make their day, and Diptyque is one of the most well known luxurious brands that offer the most beautiful candles. I would love to find this under the tree.


OPI Bond-ettes Mini Set - £12.50
You cannot go wrong with nail polish and you can't go wrong with OPI, especially a cute mini set! I have a few mini sets and I love them, and I wouldn't mind adding this set to my (large) collection of nail polishes. This is one of OPI's newest collections and the colours are gorgeous!

Caudalie Trio Shower Collection - £12.60

I think this is a lovely gift for someone who loves yummy shower gels and someone who already loves the brand or someone who is yet to be introduced to it.

Origins Christmas Bauble - £6
I think this is such a cute idea! I would absolutely love this to be hanging on my tree, this cute little thing includes a set of Origins best selling products in travel sizes. It's a great way to introduce someone to the brand and skin care.

I hope this helps! Happy shopping, oh, and remember, there is no harm in getting any of this stuff for yourself :)
