I Got It From My Mama

I feel like it's a rite of passage for girls to lust after their mothers makeup or beauty products. Perhaps you longed from afar hoping one day she'd pass you the brush or, like me, you secretly tried everything on when she wasn't at home. Today I'm sharing the beauty products that I got from my mum!

An Ode to Effaclar Duo Plus by La Roche Posay

Where do I begin with Effaclar Duo Plus? It's like a loyal friend. Always there when I need it. It's one of La Roche Posay's most famous products, and for good reason. Put simply, it works.

Everyday Autumn Makeup Routine

With only a few weeks left of Autumn (sob!) I thought I'd better hurry up and share my everyday makeup routine. I do change my makeup preferences with the seasons, but if I'm honest, it's not a big change. On an everyday basis, I prefer the same look, minimal makeup for a fresh and glowy complexion. I do tend to play around with eye makeup a lot during Autumn so I thought it would be more interesting to include those products today. 

An Ode To La Roche Posay's Cicaplast Hand Cream

I couldn't do 'An Ode To' series without writing about one of my most used, loved and recommended products. To be honest, I can't believe it has taken me this long to get around to it. The product in question is of course, the Cicaplast Hand Cream (£5.50-£6.50) from La Roche Posay. 

Brand Focus: L'oreal

It's been a while since I did a Brand Focus so today I thought I'd cover L'oreal. To me, L'oreal is one of the most 'reliable' brands in terms of makeup. Everyone knows and loves it. They have a great blend of traditional and more innovative products. I've tried so many of their products over the years and have been impressed by the majority of them. I'm going to be sharing my personal favourites in this post.

An Ode to Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm

I really enjoyed writing my Ode To Mac's Hush post, so I thought why not make it into a little series. It's a great opportunity to re-review products I posted about when I first started blogging. I've already reviewed these once, so consider these posts a love letter. Today, I'm writing about Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm.

Makeup Geek Haul and Review

I may have gone a bit wild and spent a fortune on Makeup Geek. Who am I kidding? There's no 'may' about it. All things rational when out the window the second I started Googling swatches. Anyway, since I did buy a lot, I thought why not do a haul and a mini review.

Sleek Precious Metals Highlighting Palette: Worth the Hype?

I hauled the Sleek Precious Metals Highlighting Palette way back in August and I can't believe it has taken me this long to review it! It's so hyped up, the blogger in me wanted to see if it was worth it.
