Small beauty haul.

Hello, from the other side... (I love Adele)

Thought I would share some of my newest buys and what I thought of them.
I got myself a bottle of TRESemmè heat defence spray 60ml it was  £1 from pound world, I am not sure how much this is in other shops as I've not used this one before but I thought it was a very good buy at only £1, this spray smells amazing, I've not tried it out on my hair yet but I hope it's as good as the last bottle of TRESemmè heat defense spray I had (it's the one that's in a red bottle) I don't use straightners that often as half the time my hair is tied up, so bottles of heat spray lasts me ages.


Then I got myself 3 bottles of nail polishes, I have 2 bottles are by maybelline, color show 60 seconds, one colour is pink slip 327 it is a lovely metalic rose pink colour and the other is rose chic 232 which is a sparkly pale rose gold colour. So pretty. I've done my nails and it goes on so nicely and 2 coats painted on each hand and dry within only 5 minutes.  I will be getting lots more colours in these polishes, I'm amazed. Usually the 2nd coat takes a long time to dry and by that time I've usually knocked them and smudged one or more of my nails. These polishes were from Savers £1.99 each, very good price I think.



I also got a Rimmel salon pro polish, colour chic and cheerful 710 and it's a lovely hot chocolate colour. (Only way to describe it lol) I've yet to try this one out but the other salon pro polishes I have got myself in the past have been long lasting and good coverage. (Unlike some that are nice colours then you put them on and it's watery, pale on the nails and takes 4 coats before it looks like it does in the bottles) I got the salon pro bottle from pound world for £1, obviously (ha)

I've recently tried out a new conditioning mask for my hair which I got from my most recent Glossy box (monthly subscription of beauty goodies) and it is amazing!! My hair is so soft and shiny. It's by Naobay, I had a quick look online and I can't see a UK Shop to get it from, I shall keep on searching cos it's lovely, it smells lovely and fresh with slight citrus smells to it, I think its has a lemon grass scent to it.


                                                                   Glossy box is amazing for trying out new products you wouldn't usually notice in the shops, sometimes that is a good thing as some of them are pretty pricey, I think this hair mask retails at around $12.

Also in love with Soap & Glory, Foam call shower gel. It's smells of citrus scents and really leaves me feeling fresh and squeaky clean. I treated myself with a wash bag full of Soap & Glory products from boots in the January sales, love their products. Their hand cream is amazing and has the same citrus smell as this shower gel.

Lastly Baylis and Harding Rhubarb and vanilla shower cream and body wash wow wow wow it's like being a kid again, it smells just like the Rhubarb and custard hard boiled sweets. Lush.
Well that's all from me for now.

                       Ta ta for now

                  Thanks for reading

My highstreet beauty haul.

Hello there, thought I would share my most recent highstreet/drugstore beauty haul with you, and my thoughts on each item. First of all I have the I ❤ make up Golden bar eyeshadow pallete.  Link to golden bar. I fell in love with the packaging on this, not ashamed to say that's what got me to buy it. I am not a huge fan of the colours in the pallete although I do use a few of the colours as you can tell from the photo, but I am trying out new looks so may end up loving some of the ones I don't really like right now.  This pallete is all shimmers, So it's not a pallete you can use as a main pallete, I have other older palletes with mattes in them I use with this. The pigment is really good for such a budget price of £8.99 and I've seen reviews of these palletes on YouTube comparing them to the Too Faced chocolate palletes and they did amazingly next to them, so I feel I have really got a bargain. I can't afford to spend £40+ on eyeshadows when I have...

Blogtober #4

Giving birth to a huge baby. Day 4 of  Blogtober I thought in today's post I would write about the birth of my youngest child (now 10 years old) Isabella, she was a hefty weight, not at all your average baby weight, although I have heard of much bigger babies being born (my eyes sting at that thought) so here is my story of how my beautiful little girl entered the world. Before I begin, I would like to say that I kept telling midwives I was carrying an elephant inside me, they would say she is only going to be about 1 lb bigger than my older two children's birth weights (8lb 6oz & 8lb 7oz) I had SPD (where the ligaments over stretch in the pelvis, causing a lot of pain) I was depressed as I could hardly do anything, the pain was immense, I used to cry whenever I needed to get up out of my bed to go to the loo, (which was often, babies like using our bladder as a trampoline) I would literally crawl to the bathroom, the midwives just said they couldn't ...

Blogtober #5

Harvest festival. Today I was inspired to write this post, as tomorrow Isabella's (Daughter) school is having a harvest festival assembly, so I was inspired to talk to you about food banks. Food banks are so essential for so many people, more than you could imagine have to use them, people who you would assume would have a good wage coming in from their jobs like Nurses for instance, so many Nurses are struggling to make ends meet, it is so heartbreaking that such kind, caring and selfless people like Nurses are struggling as much as they do, also hard working families who are working so much to the point of exhaustion, yet sadly struggle to get by once bills are paid, parents going hungry to make sure their children get a meal, its a desperate time for a lot of people, and not just around harvest festival and Christmas time, this is every day of every week. This is where you, me and anyone else out there can help, there are so many food bank collections out ther...
