A round up of the books I've read this month:-


Review: The Vegan Kind Box - January 2014

Thursday 30 January 2014

For a long time, I'd been hoping that someone would bring out a subscription box similar to Vegan Cuts and Eco Emi here in the UK, and at last, we finally have one thanks to The Vegan Kind!

Skincare Review: Odylique Calming Rose Super Tonic, Superfruit Concentrate, Honey & Oat Cleansing Bar and Calendula Balm

Tuesday 28 January 2014

A few weeks before Christmas, I received a very exciting email from one of the founders of English natural brand, Essential Care (who I've raved about before, particularly with respects to their amazing Coconut Candy Scrub, Gentle Herb Shampoo and their beautiful mineral Lipsticks).  The company are currently in the process of re-branding and have changed their name to Odylique.

Review & Swatches: B. Vibrant Lip & Cheek Colours in Prom, Goji & Fandango + GIVEAWAY!

Friday 24 January 2014

Wander over to any brand's makeup counter/stand, and you're bound to find a range of lip crayons.  Everyone seems to have them these days and I for one, am slightly addicted to them.  I think it's because they bring out my inner child as they inject some playful fun into your daily makeup bag. 

Winter Skin Saviour: SteamCream Limited Edition Ume Ni Uguisu Tin

Wednesday 22 January 2014

SteamCream's new Limited Edition tin combines two of my favourite things; Japanese style art and a wonderful multi-purpose, winter skin saviour.

The Detox Pamper

Sunday 19 January 2014

Sundays and pampering were made for each other, so I thought I'd share a couple of new products that I've been enjoying recently which would be perfect for a detox style pamper.

Review: Love Me Beauty Box - January 2014

Monday 13 January 2014

Love Me Beauty announced back in December that there would be some exciting things happening with the box in the New Year, so I couldn't wait to get my hands on January's offering.  As always, there were three different menus to choose from, and this month I opted for no. 2.

Winter Skin Saviour: Conscious Skincare Soothing Hand Cream

Sunday 12 January 2014

Hand cream is a daily essential for me, mainly because I can't bear having dry, papery feeling hands (it's almost as bad as dry lips *shudders*).  In this cold weather, you really need a hand cream that is going to cut the mustard and battle the elements for you which is where Conscious Skincare comes in.   

Mini LUSH Sales Haul

Wednesday 8 January 2014

At the weekend, I popped into Lush with a friend.  I wasn't expecting to find anything left from their annual 50% off xmas sale as I'd assumed that everything would have been snapped up by now, but to my amazement there were a couple of things still available on the shelves.

The New Year's Day Pamper

I hope everyone has had a good start to the New Year!  If you went out last night or indulged at home too much, and feel a little worse for wear like I do (my head is oh-so-fuzzy right now so please forgive any spelling mistakes), then this is the pamper post to get you feeling like yourself again.
