Thoughts on Blogosphere Magazine

Us bloggers have created our own little community on the internet. We blog, share photos, tweet, youtube...the list goes on. But we have nothing tangible to our name. This is where Blogosphere comes in. A printed magazine about bloggers for bloggers. It's taken me a little while to jump on the bandwagon as the first magazine was actually...

Spotlight On: Bourjois

As a new feature on Dress It Up, I thought I'd place the spotlight on a different brand every few weeks, be it high street or high end and talk about my three favourite products from the range. To kick the feature off I decided to focus on Bourjois, a firm favourite in my make-up bag. I've dabbled in products across the board at the Bourjois stand...

Review | Soap and Glory Supercat Liquid Eyeliner Pen

When it comes to eyeliner my preferred application is with a felt-pen like nib. I find it super easy to use and I don't have to worry about smudges when I'm first applying. The Soap and Glory Supercat Liquid Eyeliner Pen is my absolute favourite at the moment for this! I've always loved Soap and Glory's bath and skincare range but I'd never...

Valentines Bake | Red Velvet Cheesecake Swirl Brownies

When it comes to Valentines Day there are two camps. Those who love it and those who hate it. It's basically the Marmite of the holiday world. Me personally? I'm not a fan. I don't really see the point in it, aside from using it as an excuse to spend the night with your loved one. That being said, if I'm going to use Valentines Day as...
