Review | MUA Eyeshadows

Hey beauties! Just a quick post… It’s review time again! Today is the turn of my much loved MUA shadows… Price At £1 each from Superdrug, I cannot complain and neither can my bank balance. Great for anyone who can’t afford those pricey high end brands or someone who’s hoping to save their pennies. Packaging Simple, but what do you expect for a quid! I’ve dropped these on so many occasions (I’m such a clumsy moo) and all are still in tact 🙂 Oh and the size of the actual pan is very generous I must say! Pigmentation Wow. Amazing! Not only…

Review | Soap and Glory Glad Hair Day Shampoo

Hi beauties! You guessed it, another review! Today I will be reviewing Soap and Glory’s Glad Hair Day Shampoo. Like all Soap and Glory products this comes packaged in a quirky, vintage bottle. This is something I really love, it just gives the product that girly little touch which I find adorable. Enough about the much loved packaging… Now this product retails at £5.22 for 250ml from Boots. The product claims to be suitable for all hair types and also claims to have a no buildup formula. It is also said to be an Ultra-Shine daily shampoo. It contains Raspberry Fruit Vinegar,…

Soap and Glory Flake Away Review

The Soap and Glory Flake Away Scrub is a product I’ve heard a lot of people rave about. Not heard of it? Well this is a body polish that contains Shea Butter, Sugar and Peach Seed Powder. The product is available to purchase from the Boots website and in selected stores where a 300ml tub will set you back £8.00. Some might say this is a tad pricey but it is good to keep in mind that this is a big tub and it is sure to last you well. Anyway, for me exfoliating is an essential step in my…

Cute earring storage

Hello my beautiful girlies! I hope you’re all enjoying the lovely weather. I must say, it is gorgeous! Anyway… I thought I’d share a little storage idea with you lot. I know storing stud earrings isn’t the easiest, you can store them in a jewellery box but you cannot really see what earrings you have! Or, you can get a earring display, but these can be rather expensive. So, if like me you want to be able to see your collection but you’re a little skint, then why not buy a corkboard? I got this bad boy from Wilkinsons and cost…
