FABFITFUN SUBSCRIPTION BOX FALL 2020

My second FabFitFun subscription box has arrived! If I’m honest with you I was a little underwhelmed at the customisation stage this time. You can find my post on the Summer box and how it all works by clicking here. This season I paid $41.99 as some of my lovely readers used my referral link…

FABFITFUN SUBSCRIPTION BOX SUMMER 2020

I finally decided to order my first FabFitFun subscription box. This like so many of my other purchases was inspired by Mikhila McDaid (Miss Budget Beauty). FabFitFun is a US based quarterly subscription box service. The fact that it’s US based instantly attracted me as there is a chance to receive some products and brands…

MAC Bronzing Collection & Swatches

I am quite literally a marketers dream, tell me something is limited edition, give it some sparkly packaging and it’s in my basket. Add a free gift and it’s in my basket even quicker. It’s quite funny really considering I work in marketing myself! I love a MAC limited edition collection, the packaging is always…

Beauty Pie – How It Works & Dupes.

There’s nothing more I like than coming home to a package of brand new shiny make up to try. I think this is why beauty boxes have appealed to me so much in the past, as a box of new things is sent to you to try each month. Although often due to the lack…

Holland and Barrett Zero Waste Starter Kit

I might be accused of jumping on the band wagon but in this case I think this band wagon needs to be jumped on by all of us beauty addicts in order for a real difference to be made. I’m of course talking about the hot topic of eco-friendly/ ethical and thoughtful beauty choices. I’m…

Glamour Beauty Festival 2019

You may remember my post from last year about the Glamour Beauty Festival, well I attended again this year. If I’m honest the main reason I decided to go again was for the amazing goodie bag, I now work in London so it was convenient just to pop along on Friday evening after work. The…

Planning New York Winter 2018 and Westin New York Grand Central Hotel Mini Review

I’ll start this post by apologising, I’ve not written a post or even taken a look at my blog for about 2 months. If I’m honest I’ve had a lot going on, I haven’t talked about it much but I left my job in June and was hunting for a new one until late October….

Debenhams Beauty Club Community Launch

A couple of weeks ago I was invited a long to the Smashbox Studios in London by Debenhams for the launch of their Beauty Club Community. I’m already an avid user of the Beauty Club card – collecting points from my many beauty purchases and going into my local Debenhams to collect the monthly Beauty…

Poundland #6 Skincare Range

Skincare is such a big area of the beauty market these days and it is often fairly pricey so I was intrigued when I saw Poundland’s new #6 skincare range mentioned online. I went into my local store a week ago and they had five out of the six products on offer. It’s often common…
