Home Sweet Home



                               




I recently moved back home from Uni and thought I'de share my new improved room. The pain of moving all of my stuff from what has been my home at Uni halls was pain full and stressful, but coming home to a tranquil boudoir.

I chose a light floral theme for my room I wanted somewhere to chill out and relax while home for the summer and a calming place for blogging. As my room at home is only my summer retreat I didnt want to spend loads of decor and accessories, Wilkinson and Dunelm are fast becoming a really good place to find affordable decor - so I would check it if you fancy a room revamp.

A happy home is a happy soul :)

I Call It My Treasure Chest



                


My jewellery is like my very own crown jewels. I don't like being away from home because I never know what jewels to take with me. But when I am in one place my jewellery is incredibly organised (well to me it is)  
The mirrored box is my first and fave storage, from Next Home a while back in the sale for just a fiver. It homes most of my rings and the odd bit of jewellery the ones that the hop the other hoop will turn up one day so keep just in case. 
Both the heart ring dish and black tree are both from a quirky little shop called Tiger in Kingston- Upon- Thames. I loved the boldness and originality of the tree but it's yet to find a permanent home as the black just throws of my spring colour scream of peony flowers, pink and white roses and cream comforters. The heart draws are from Dunelm and was on sale it stores my chunkier things such as big retro earrings and big bracelets. I'm a post-it note pusher- plastic wallet- colour coded kind of person so organisation is key.

Hope you all have a great day, I would love if you could follow my blog!

Pucker Up











I've recently been rather unadventurous with my lip colour but I felt no need to worry because MAC Faux lipstick has become my everyday/go to/ must have lipstick. For me the pinky nude colour was suttle enough to wear with near enough everything. However I have found a practically identical shade for a fraction of the price - Kate Moss 036 the difference is minimal. 

MAC Soar Lip Pencil is a match made in heaven for this lipstick. I don't always have time for lip liner and with my lips being already define and plump I don't always feel I need it, but this particular liner along with the lipstick add a delightful glow to my face and make my lips look rather peachy if you ask me.

Oh I prep my lips with MAC Lip Prep and Prime, its a simple lip balm stick moisture stick that prepares for lips for a hard days work by softening the lips and preventing those bright colours from staining the lips; not forgetting the most imperative role of ensuring your lipstick stays on for longer. I'de invest if I was you.

How I Treat My Skin








Your skin is the most important part of your body, I think that needs the most care and attention. I've put together some of my favourite skin goodies that I am using at the moment.

 In the shower Power Fruit shower gel is certainly working a treat. I suffer from really sensitive skin so for many years I have had to use special soap, the ones that aren't fragrance and leave your skin dry. Well I have finally found one I can use followed by Bio Oil, which smooths skin and removes dark scares or imperfection my skin is beginning to have a natural glow again after the winter zapped all our skin of umf. For those days when I feel my skin needs a proper scrub usually after a night out I use Soap&Glory Scrub of Your Life.This body buffer is has mini micro beads that help remove dirt and leave your skin smooth; not to mention the sweet refreshing smell. 

Now my face is a constant battle but I have a routine. In the morning and before bed I use St Ives Apricot Scrub Invigorating. It gently exfoliates dull surface cells to instantly reveal smooth radiant skin. Depending on your skin type you may not want to do it in the morning also but in the evening is a must. I use this with a mini face exfoliating pad to ensure it really works its magic. I follow this with Clean and Clear Dual Action Moisturiser. Used before makeup up and after a good scrub I feel it prepares my skin for anything whilst saying thank you for all its hard work. 

All of my skin products are super affordable just finding the one best for you is the key.

Bond With Whomever






The name itself reflect a refreshing, romanic, exsuberating burst of emotion. 'Bond With Whomever'
This is by fair my go to polish of spring, against my caramel skin it definitely complements my skin. For me a tidy bright nail polish brightens the hands and makes every women feel feminine. 

Essie has always been a nail product I though was probably the same as all the rest just a little more pricey, but my goodness the quality is worth it. As I'm penny grabber £7.99 (Boots) made me feel as though I was breaking the bank but with a good base and finish coat this nail polish stays bright and yummy.

I cannot wait to try out more of Essie products. I'm converted!
