Hello June 2015

Source

What happened in May;

- I REACHED 900 FOLLOWERS WOOHOOOOO! I know I said it on twitter but again, thank you so much for following me on here and all of the support that I got last month. When I reach 1000 followers I will be doing my next giveaway so keep a look out for that in the up coming months. 

- After I had my unexpected break on here, I realised that this isn't a be all and end all of my life. If you haven't already noticed I am not as strict on myself for getting a post up every other day. I'm enjoying my more relaxing approach to my blog now making it much more enjoyable. 

What's happening in June;

- Spa evening with my 2nd family. 

- A WEEK OFF WORK! After 4 months without a week off I am literally SO excited for this

- Babysitting my little puppy dog for a few days

- Bloggers meet up in Sheffield and seeing ALL my girls for the first time in November last year :D 

- Day in London with the wife

I am a little busy in June but I can't wait :D Its gonna be an amazing month. 
What have you got planned for June?!

Acne Ultra Clear*

Hello there;

I was recently contact to try out a acne face cream. Personally I do not suffer with acne, never have but the company still wanted me to test our the All natural herbal face cream and post my results nonetheless. 


I was sent 6 of these pots, as you can imagine I was shocked to have 6! Not going to be running out soon. The pots I received are all plain white with the information on the lid. Very simple. I know the pots that come if you were to buy them are a lot more funky! The cream itself is a lovely consistency, not overly thick so it takes a week to sink in but not too runny so you have to chase it all over your face. For me, it was the perfect consistency. It took around 10 minutes for it to full sink into my skin, which I do not mind as I like to apply a good amount knowing my skin will thank me for it later. 

Left: Before
Right: After

As you can see from my photos I was VERY red in the before, I do suffer with this a lot; wish I knew why. But in the after photo (roughly a month apart) the red has pretty much disappeared. The Acne Ultra Clear cream really helped calm my skin down. It felt a lot more hydrated, make up sat better on my face and it just looked better in general. The only thing I don't like about this cream is the smell. With it being a all natural herbal cream, its scent it quite strong. It does fade quite fast upon application so it was bearable. 

Overall I have thoroughly enjoyed using this cream, bar the smell it has done wonders to my skin a real saviour. If you would like to buy your own tub its cost £12.95 or for any more information click here!

Selfridges Haul

Hello there;

How could I not share these three items with you?
Yes, the phrase "the blogs made me buy it" comes to mind, but it that really a bad thing? No I don't think so either. Firstly I need to say how impressed I was with the dispatch time with this order. I ordered it around 4pm on a Tuesday, half 10 that night I have a text saying it had been dispatched. Two days later I have my little box in my clutches dashing home to open it up and see the infamous yellow box.



Since I first laid my eyes on Charlotte Tilbury's Bronze & Glow I knew I needed it in my collection. Not only for the gorgeous packaging, but for the beautiful bronzer and highlighter inside. Also from Charlotte Tilbury I have been lusting over the Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk for as long as I can remember. I will be doing full reviews of these all in due time. 

Lastly is my first ever Nars purchase. I know I have been around now for 18 months and yes I am ashamed that this is my first Nars product, but surely you can forgive me as I made it a good first buy right?! Velvet Matte Lip Pencil in Dragon Girl I needed a 56543 read lip stick obviously. 


I don't want to do too much in-depth review in this post as honestly I haven't even touched them yet, so I have no idea what they are like. They are all too pretty to touch. 

Have you been lusting after anything from Selfridges lately?!
