e.l.f sheer matte liquid lipstick

e.l.f (which stands for Eyes, Lips, Face) is a drugstore make up brand that is 100% vegan and cruelty free. I discovered this brand a year or so ago and it is probably now my main go-to brand: Their foundations do exactly what you need, and they have some really lovely shades of lipstick and … Continue reading e.l.f sheer matte liquid lipstick

Lush Snow Fairy

This one is bitter sweet...because I did not think it would last me as long as it did and as such it is no longer available at Lush. This soap was part of their Christmas range and is therefore only available during the Christmas period. So this one is on me... I LOVE this soap. … Continue reading Lush Snow Fairy

Trevor Sorbie curl cream

I am still trying to persevere with my Curly Girl method so am still trying to find the right products for my hair. The Trevor Sorbie range is completely new to me: I have never used them before for anything, and I haven't seen that much about them on social media before. But they are … Continue reading Trevor Sorbie curl cream

Lush’s Twilight bath bomb

A week ago I found myself in self-isolation. My NHS COVID app told me that I needed to self isolate for 5 days, on Sunday night. Therefore for 5 days I had to stay in my house and not go anywhere. At all. I couldn't even go outside. Which meant that my lovely partner had … Continue reading Lush’s Twilight bath bomb

Superdrug Tea Tree foaming facial wash

I am one of those lucky people who has odd skin: In the winter, my skin is stupidly dry, yet in the summer it can get quite oily. I do wear make up most days - mainly because of work or because I'm out seeing people - but I do try my best to always … Continue reading Superdrug Tea Tree foaming facial wash

Maui shea butter shampoo and conditioner

As some of you may know, I am currently in the process of embracing and nurturing my true curly hair. I have spent at least the last 15 years straightening my hair, trying to tame it and control it and then getting mad when my hair would start to crimp at the slightest hint of … Continue reading Maui shea butter shampoo and conditioner

Eden Perfumes: 309

Vegan friendly perfume has always been something that eluded me. I am someone that enjoys wearing perfume, and have spent the last few years using up some of my non-vegan favourites that I had a surplus of. Unfortunately most vegan alternatives are either really expensive, or are only ever really light 'body sprays' or 'mists', … Continue reading Eden Perfumes: 309

Garnier hair mask

If you are new here, I have been trying to embrace my naturally curly hair and trying to repair about 20 years of heat damage to it. I have been straightening my hair since I was about 10 years old so you can imagine the damage that has been done. I decided in 2020, with … Continue reading Garnier hair mask

Umberto Giannini curl jelly collection

I have very curly hair and up until this year I have been pretty cruel to my hair. I - like most teenage girls I'm sure - spent the majority of my teens straightening my hair. My hair was never really 'pretty curly'...it never really had curly shapes to it and when I did brush … Continue reading Umberto Giannini curl jelly collection

Lush’s Mermaid Tail

The weather in England has started to turn frosty, and therefore boiling hot bubble baths are now a must! So I decided to treat myself and try one of Lush's bubble bombs. This was their mermaid tail bomb, which consists of a bubble bomb and a bath melt all in one. It smells like lemons … Continue reading Lush’s Mermaid Tail
