A Sunday Summary

Sunday, November 30, 2014
So here I am, on a Saturday night/early Sunday morning and I find myself without the required photo to post my bi-monthly "What I've Been Loving..." post tomorrow. I know - I'm a terrible blogger - but this week has run away from me, and I find myself at home with my parents (and sans camera) and unable to stick to my editorial schedule. So, I thought I'd fill you in on my week and hope that this...

A Second Chance - The NARSISSIST Palette

Friday, November 28, 2014
Way-back-when when this bad boy was initially released, the blogasphere was set alight with sheer joy and an incredibly strong sense of longing. As a fellow beauty and NARS enthusiast, I was also sucked in by the promise land that was the Narsissist Palette - a stunning array of beautiful NARS eyeshadows that would make anyone go weak at the knees. I decided that despite it was perhaps one...

A new step: Scriptoeris

Wednesday, November 26, 2014
I've been hinting at an upcoming project that I've become involved in for a week or so now, and now is the time to share my news with all of you lovely readers. A few years ago, one of my close friends Scarlett Clark launched Scriptoeris - an international lifestyle magazine aimed at empowering females. The brand has been developing gradually and has made a real splash online (retweeted by Kristin...

My Blogging Process

Monday, November 24, 2014
Blogging is much harder that people may initially think - even as a super organised person (if I do say so myself!) I often have a bit of trouble keeping up with my thoughts. Ideas appear at the most random times, and if you're not prepared to write them down or do something about them at the moment that they strike, they they can disappear just as suddenly as they dropped into your lap in...

Charmed

Saturday, November 22, 2014
I've always been a fan of charm bracelets - I think they're a lovely way to piece together different memories, and it's amazing when the combined bracelet has been made up of charms from different people because it will always remind you of them. I only have one charm bracelet which is from Thomas Sabo, and I absolutely adore it, so today I thought I'd walk you through what makes up my...

The Budget 'Kylie Jenner' Pout

Thursday, November 20, 2014
Kylie Jenner's 'miraculous lip development' (... shall we call it?) has really brought around a new hype in the beauty business - the return of the overdrawn lips. Bloggers and makeup artists alike have been searching left and right for the 'perfect' lip liner to do the job - from MAC 'Soar' to the oh-so-gorgeous 'Pillow Talk' by Charlotte Tilbury, but let's face it, 'ain't nobody got time to...

The Blog Post That Changed Everything

Tuesday, November 18, 2014
I'll tell you a little secret. Before I read this marvellous post by Gwen over at This Fashion is Mine, my blog organisation started and ended in the 'drafts' and 'scheduled' folders of my Blogger dashboard. I mainly blogged day to day, having one or two post planned ahead of me if I was lucky, because I couldn't really find a way to organise my ideas in one place. That was until Gwen introduced...

What I've Been Loving #34

Sunday, November 16, 2014
Nars Duo Eyeshadow in 'Dolomites' (£25): When I saw that they were releasing this beauty a few months back, I knew for a fact that it would be mine, even if it meant eating soup for a month. Like everything I have ever bought from NARS, this certainly has not disappointed and has earned it spot in the 'everyday' section of my stash next to my NARS concealer and my MAC F&B foundation. Sally...

The Post-Shower Lineup

Friday, November 14, 2014
I am not a morning shower kinda' gal. Never have been. I've mentioned how much I enjoy my sleep before, and aint' nothing gonna get in the way of my lie-in. Instead, I opt for a nice late night relaxing shower followed by a mini pamper session that gets me in the mood to snuggle right into bed. In accordance with my overly-organised personality, I like to line up the products I'm going to use...

Little Changes

Wednesday, November 12, 2014
Getting yourself a Fitbit (or any other type of pedometer/fitness tracker) really opens your eyes to how many (or how little) steps you take in a day, and what that equates to in terms of calories and distance. It's honestly one of the best purchases I have ever made (and this is coming from a beauty obsessive) as it's really helped to change the way I approach fitness and my lifestyle in general.  1....

#Use or Lose: Lips

Monday, November 10, 2014
The next #Use or Lose is here - and it's time to clean out my lip draw, one lipstick bullet at a time...  The Suspects: Benefit 'Dandelion' Lip Gloss Dandelion is a pretty sheer pink gloss that is the mirror image of the famous boxed blush from Benefit. I haven't actually opened this one up yet, because I'm honestly not a lipgloss kind of girl, and it's never really ticked...

A week to think...

Monday, November 3, 2014
I'm burnt out - final year of university is more intense that I could ever've imagined and any free time is spent either trying to hit the gym or catching up on sleep. I'm not complaining, I know that everything good in life - like my degree or this blog - is hard work, but there comes a point when you just need a second to think - or in this case, a week. As of Monday I have a 'reading week' for...

What I've Been Loving #33

Sunday, November 2, 2014
Urban Decay Naked Palette (£37):There is no doubt in my mind that this is my favourite of the Naked Palettes - the quality, colour range and sheer number of combinations that can be made with it has firmly placed it in the lead for the 'Naked' series. As you can see, I'm quite the fan of the shade 'Virgin' as it's a gorgeous inner-corner highlighter for a pale girl like me (trust me, they're not easy...
