Leave a Comment

fashion

So, I have been thinking recently that there are many of times where I go shopping and don’t share it with you. Most of you know I am one for fashion and that I like the latest trends and new clothes every month. In fact, I am one to wear most things once then sell or give to charity. So today I have decided to share with you what I have brought in March. Or this pay month anyway. I am a high street shopper the majority of the time, but occasionally or if I love something so much I have to buy the high-end high-street brands.

self care

How has your week been? The weather is getting warmer so it can’t of been too bad. Self care is super important to me as many of you may already know. But as I have the disease called Endometriosis, I really have to love my body that little bit more. I’m not saying I love or do what my body needs all the time but 95% of the time I come first. I have to and I have to take things at a different pace to some people. Things can be really different but on a good day I am on top form.

Lush Cosmetic Warrior Mask Review

When it comes to face masks, I always have and think I will continue to prefer masks you can apply rather than sheet masks. I just feel you can see better results for something you can apply than on something that is designed to suit every shape and size. I was really excited when I ordered the Cosmetic Warrior Mask from Lush. Lush has a good range to match skin types and what suits your needs. My skin is fairly normal, slightly dry due to a cold but typically ok. I have had a little break out on my nose especially which I wanted help with, to clear it up.

Bringing Boundaries Back Buddy Box

Comments : 2

self care box

Do you practice self care, have a chronic illness or mental health problems? Or do you know someone who does? In that case you need to get this monthly subscription box run by The Blurt It Out Foundation and their monthly buddy boxes are for everyone! We could all do with a little extra TLC every month. A buddy box is described as a hug in a box. For me it automatically puts a smile on my face as soon as I see it. The best bit about a buddy box is it comes with 5 full size products and they can be the most random things ever. Some that you wouldn’t really think about and relate to the subject but in fact they do.

Nip + Fab Face mask

It’s here another Face Mask Friday. Happy Friday everyone! Who’s glad its the weekend? I can’t really say I am ready I have been off from work today and yesterday. Today was my first Crafternoon Tea.

When I look to make or buy face masks and sheet masks, I look for key words like hydrate and moisturise. Things that will help my skin for what I need. This is why *I have decided to try this one.  Read More

face mask

As you may know or from what I have heard Manuka honey is very good for you, to drink and eat. I hadn’t seen or heard of Manuka honey in skin care until I was looking up remedies for eczema. This is where I found the lotion I featured as a February favourite. When purchasing the lotion I came across a range of Manuka honey skin care and though this face mask would definitely be good for me as the brand is good for eczema. Of course its face mask Friday so I review this one for you today.
