I hate waste, even when it comes to cosmetics and beauty products, so I do my best to use every last drop of the products I acquire (unless they’re completely awful, looking at you, Batiste). Sometimes when I finish a product I’m a bit sad, sometimes I go out and buy a replacement immediately, sometimes… Continue reading Recent empties
August has arrived and with it the second in the two-part summer box theme that Glossy Box is running this year. I like this theme and I like the presentation of the boxes, it’s just a shame that while Glossy Box assert that “girls just wanna have sun” this has been the wettest August I… Continue reading Glossybox unboxing – August 17
Um, you guys? It’s June? Why did no one warn me that the year was going so quickly? How can it be that we’re into month six and I’m still writing 2016 as the date? This seems to happen every year, you’d think I’d get used to it. Anyway, since the year is already running away… Continue reading Favourite products of 2017 so far…
Spring is a wonderful time for new beauty discovery. For one thing, there’s enough daylight to actually take the opportunity to see your best attempts with your new eyeliner.

In all likelihood, it’ll be all brown… Continue reading Product review: TIGI Bed Head Colour Goddess Shampoo and Conditioner
How is it already March? Who ordered this? Can we put the breaks on, please? Ah well, at least another month means another Glossybox. Incidentally, I have a new rule: Unless it’s a pretty special edition box, the box itself now gets recycled. Sure, they’re handy to store stuff in but I’m approaching the point… Continue reading Glossybox Unboxing – March 2017
I haven’t done a product review in a while so I thought I’d share this one, partly because it’s about putting my money where my mouth is. Way back in February I wrote this about parabens in products. Long story short; parabens are preservatives but will do you no harm. If you’re ultra paranoid and… Continue reading Product review: The Body Shop Rainforest Balance Shampoo for Oily Hair
I always get excited about getting my Glossybox these days and I’m already dreading the day my 6 month subscription runs out. I’ll be very tempted to renew it. I’m also getting super annoyed with the postie who seems to really enjoy playing knock-a-door-run with my parcels. I did not enjoy my trek up to… Continue reading Glossybox March Unboxing
