I've Got Starbucks On A Cloudy Day

Starbucks
Nonfat Caramel Macchiato

Good evening all!

As you can guess from the title today has not been very nice here in England, it has been very cloudy, dark and wet which was a bit of a shock to the system as I was just getting used to the lovely spring weather!

The office felt a bit gloomy because of the horrible weather, so myself and a colleague thought what better than a lovely Starbucks to cheer ourselves up!

With the weather not being very nice I definitely wanted something hot! As you know from my last post, I am trying to stick with healthy eating so, I decided to go for a Nonfat Caramel Macchiato (I had never had this before and was very intrigued!)

Clinique Chubby Stick Intense Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm Review ♥

Chubby Stick Intense Moisturizing Lip Colour Balm
Heftiest Hibiscus

Good evening all! I would like to apologise for my lack of blogging over the past couple of days! I have been very busy at work, so have not had much time for myself! :(

After my "What's In My Make Up Bag" post I have had quite a few requests to review the Clinique Chubby stick (Shade Heftiest Hibiscus).

NEW: What's In My Make Up Bag, April

What's In My Make Up Bag

Good Morning everyone, I hope you are all having a lovely weekend so far!

Today I am going to be doing a post on "What's In My Make Up Bag" as I have had quite a few requests for this and thought it is a fab idea!

I did a post on this yesterday, however I figured it was a bit too long for you all to read when giving a description about every product!
If you would like me to do a separate post on any of the items below, please let me know :)!


My current make up bag is one I purchased in a set from QVC about 2 years ago - Yes, I have had this a long time! I am very pleased with how long it has lasted me, but it has gone through the washing machine about 3 times. Unfortunately, I am unable to find this anywhere online to purchase (except for eBay), so think it must have been a special for the set I bought.

LUSH Love ♥

LUSH
Snow Fairy shower gel

Good afternoon everyone, I hope you are all having a lovely day!

So today I am going to be doing a post on a product that can only be purchased around Christmas time & this is Lush Snow Fairy shower gel. Apologies for posting this now, seeing as you cannot go out and purchase it from LUSH themselves, but I cannot contain myself any longer!.

Every Christmas I stock up on this to make sure I have enough to get me through the year, as I absolutely love the stuff!

I adore the sweet smell of this & the smell lingers around for a good few hours and for this reason, it may not be good for those of you that find sweet smelling things sickly.

Bloglovin'

Good evening all!

I hope you have all had a lovely day!

I just wanted to ask you all a quick favour..

As you know I am very new to blogging (thank you all so much for your support ♥) & I have just made myself a Bloglovin' account.

Please could you click here and follow me on there :)?

If you guys have a Bloglovin' account and would like me to follow you on there also, please comment below with the link and I will be sure to do it :)

A quick question for you all!

Good morning all!

I am having a bit of a dilemma and would love to know your opinions and thoughts.

Following on from my 'Hairly Disappointed' post, it got me thinking & I thought this would be the perfect place to try and get some answers to an ongoing query I have.

I have been told by numerous amounts of people that I should not wash my hair every day, and should only do it 3-4 times a week.

Hairly Dissapointed :(!

Batiste - Dry Shampoo
Coconut & Exotic Tropical

So everyone has those days when they wake up and their hair is not feeling as nourished as it could be, you are in a rush and do not have time to re-wash it (even though it was only done the night before).. In cases like these I turn to the good old fashioned method of baby powder! This can get a bit messy - especially when I am already in my work clothes and drop baby powder all over myself!

I was in Asda I decided to buy some Batiste Dry Shampoo (Coconut & Exotic Tropical), as I have heard nothing but good things about this stuff and I know that a lot of people use it.



It kills me to say that I am really disappointed with this purchase! :( I really, really wanted this product to work, but it just didn't.

Shadow on your eyes ♥

Rimmel Glam Eyes Mono Eyeshadow
500 - Posh Peacock
172 - Audacious Amethyst


Ok, so first things first.. Please ignore the untidy, used state of the eyeshadows in the photo's! I got them last week and have been using them both since!
I am a little upset with myself for not taking photos before I started using them, but they were so nice I couldn't resist!


Left; Posh Peacock Right; Audacious Amethyst

I saw these in Superdrug for £4.49 each but decided to do browsing online first. I buy a lot of my beauty products from fragrancedirect.co.uk and found them on there for a FANTASTIC £1.40 each (click here to view them on fragrance direct)

Not bad for a freebie! Thank you Superdrug ♥

Rimmel 60 Seconds
050 - Fifty Shades of Pink

I tragically ran out of my foundation (blog with this in to follow!) and had to rush over to Superdrug to go pick up some more! They had an offer on Rimmel products "Buy one get one half price", I have to admit I was a little disappointed as their offer is usually buy 2 get 1 free.

I was soon cheered up when I saw that to celebrate 50 years of Superdrug (yay Happy Birthday!)I would receive a free Rimmel 60 Seconds nail polish, so I went for the shade 050 - Fifty Shades of Pink.

Another beautiful day, time for another Starbucks!

Starbucks
Light Caramel Frappucino

I think I may be getting slightly addicted to Starbucks again!
It was another warm day here in England, and with Starbucks a 5 minute walk from my office, we decided to go!

I wanted to go for something different and because of the nice weather, I decided to go for a Medium light Caramel Frappucino.
It was a blend of coffee, sweet caramel and ice, with a generous topping of caramel sauce.

Beautiful day for a Starbucks!

Starbucks
Skinny Cappuccino

So, I was on my lunch break on Thursday and decided to go to Starbucks with a colleague because it was far too nice to stay in the office!

I have a slight addiction to Starbucks Cappuccino! Even though it was a sunny day I had to get one! I usually get it normal, but with Summer right around the corner (yaaay!) I decided to go for a 'skinny' one this time.
I have to say it was surprisingly different to a normal cappuccino. It was delicious, it tasted a lot more creamy and a lot less bitter, I will definitely continue getting it in the future!

My colleague got a Strawberry Smoothie which looked lovely! It was the perfect drink for the type of weather we were having (which is very unusual for April in England).

Nails Inc St James Square

Nails Inc
St James Square

I have had this shade for a while now, but I thought it deserved it's own blog post because it is so nice and one of my absolute favourite Nails Inc shades.


I love Nails Inc polishes because I find the application so easy, they last ages, do not become thick in texture and last a good amount of time without chipping.
