Sunday Bake | Ombre Petal Birthday Cake

This week was Craig's Birthday which meant that I had a birthday cake to concoct! I've seen this 'petal' technique ALL over Pinterest recently and I just think it looks so cool!

Review | La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo+

A Day at Camber Sands.

So this week me and my sister Katie decided to take advantage of the sunny weather and head down to Camber Sands. We used to go to this beach a lot when we were kids and it holds a lot of good memories for us. It actually turned out to be a SUPER windy day, which did make it a little chilly. It was so windy the sand looked like smoke billowing...

Easter Lush Treats.

Now as their Easter range has been released I had more than justified a trip in. I was really in the mood for a bubble bath last week so I picked up three of...

Review | Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm in Striking

Its official. I've found my go-to Spring lip. Initially I wasn't going to buy any of the Revlon Colourburst Matte Balm's as to be honest I already have lots of balms from different brands in my collection. But, a few good reviews here and there and I was sucked in. I picked up the shade Striking and I'm literally in love with it. Its a beautiful...

Review (and Tutorial!) | Enrapture Encode Totem Styler

I've always struggled to curl my hair with straighteners. I can never seem to make it symmetrical on both sides and it also takes me about 25 minutes to do it all! Not exactly handy when you're rushing out the house! So when I received the Enrapture Encode Totem Styler for Christmas I was a very happy girl indeed!! The styler has three...
