Popping on a face mask twice a week is such a wonderfully relaxing experience for me and I've made it a bit of a ritual. There is nothing better than soaking in the bath (don't worry - we use the bath water for a host of different things around the house the next day)...
It’s not here quite yet, but the big chill is on its way and I for one, couldn't be happier - I’m a winter baby through and through. I love the cold and (almost) everything that goes with it: boots and scarves, tea and rusks in the morning and of course snuggling...
It's the last in my Valentine's Day gift guides, and today I am going to show you what I would love to receive – perhaps you can conveniently leave this webpage open somewhere where your significant other will see it, or you can be as subtle as a gun and just send...
It's officially the month of love - happy February everyone! Today's Valentine's Day gift guide is for those of us who are on a bit more of a budget. February always seems to be such an incredibly busy and expensive month for Dan and I, and so we usually decide on a...
I don’t know about you, but thinking about buying a gift for Dan is enough to make me break out in hives. The man buys everything that he wants and if I have to buy him another book or Xbox game, I’m going to pull my hair out. Is it just him or are all men this...
Can winter just be over already? These icy winds and deathly cold mornings (and evenings) make it really difficult to not stay in bed all day. Plus, the condition of my skin just goes down the drain if I don’t pay it enough attention. Crinkly, dry skin is not a sexy...
June was a decidedly better month than May – hooray! I have a few ongoing love affairs with some products and have one that I am still undecided about. I’ve really tried to whittle things down a bit because I can ramble on and on in these types of posts. Here we go......
Welcome to the third installment of [skincare 101]! If you’re new around here, we’ve already covered cleansers and toners. Today we are going to tackle exfoliators, a crucial step when it comes to healthy skin, especially during winter. We read about exfoliators and...
To be honest, I would rather forget about May. Between the disappointments, doctors offices, heartache and hospital stays it was a pretty rubbish month. But I’m all about silver linings at the moment and what better way to make myself feel better about the month of...
We all have different budgets and sometimes, some months are a bit tighter financially than other months. But that’s no reason for our skin care routine to suffer. I’ve put together a bit of a list of products to suit everyone's budget and still deliver on quality....
Those of you that deal with an oily skin every day know the drill - 11am shine check in the bathroom mirror, grasping at tissues to blot away the oil, a slip and slide on the sides of your nose by lunch time and your friends (or husband in my case) commenting...
