I haven't been shopping much recently, mainly due to the fact that I'm not bringing in any money at the moment, but also because I haven't spent much time out and about. However, lately I've had a bit of a urge to shop, which has resulted in a nice little blog post to put up for all of you!  The first item to come my way was a new product from John Frieda - a sea salt spray to help achieve...

Maxfactor Colour Elixir Lip Liner in 'Pink Princess' (£4.99): Who knew that Maxfactor made good lipliners? Because they don't usually have a typical stand in Boots, I often overlook the brand but that has been a big mistake on my part. The lipliner that I've been loving is called 'Pink Princess' and it's a lovely natural rose-y pink colour that compliments lipstick colours like 'Mehr' from MAC....

I'll be honest with you - cooking/baking has never been my forté (neither is food photography, but I'll work on that!) Despite my Mum being an amazing cook, her talent only really passed down to my siblings and missed me completely. I mean, I'm not a horrible cook - I can follow recipes and get decent results - but I don't have that flair that means that you don't even have to look at a recipe...

Okay, so this WiFi thing in Mexico hasn't really gone to plan. I had loads of posts that were mostly done to post whilst I'm on holiday, but none of them had been finished enough to be scheduled and then the internet has been so temperamental here that I haven't even been able to access Blogger to hit 'Publish' - poor planning on my part is to blame. This post should've gone up yesterday, but...

Something strange happened recently - after over twenty years of being accustomed to my dry skin, I was informed whilst on a trip to see a skin specialist that my face has decided to change things up and go all oily on me. You can imagine my initial surprise after being told that my skin had become oily despite still appearing dry in patches (which I was later informed was more due to congestion...
