Hello lovelies :) It's the end of the month yet again and therefore it is time for me to share my favourites for November! Here's what I've been enjoying for these last four weeks: From top left: Earrings ~ I bought these at around the middle of the month and have been really enjoying wearing them.  I love the rose motifs on them and they match a whole load of outfits!

Top - Ten Tuesdays ~ Eyeshadow shades

Good morning my lovelies :) here are my Top Ten eyeshadows for this week's post.  Most of these don't have a name :( so I will try and describe the colours as best as I can :) 10.

Gold (Collistar) ~ the...

Review: La Roche Posay Effaclar AI Targeted Breakout Corrector

Hello my lovelies :) hope you've all had a nice start to the week so far :) Today, I am going to review another product which I use as part of my struggle to get rid of the occasional zits that choose my face to sit on and develop a life of their own... La Roche Posay Effaclar AI Targeted Breakout Corrector. I actually bought this product at a time when red, swollen pimples were starting...

NOTW: Festive Marbeling + Nail Update

Sunday is back here which means tomorrow a new week will start, but it also means, it is time for another NOTW post.  Let me start with the update first...

Review: Ultra Glow Shimmer Pot in Icicle

A couple of weeks back, I won an Ultra Glow Shimmer Pot in Icicle from the R8Beauty facebook page.  After testing it out, here are my thoughts about it.

Here are some pictures to show you how small (read cute) it is: Ultra Glow describe it as 'Pure mineral...

Review: Florelle Nail Treatments

I had reviewed the other Florelle nail polishes a while back (check it out here) and today, I will be reviewing the nail treatments I have from this brand.  I actually have tried three in all (I think there are one or two more in the range) but I only have two available as I managed to smash my Nail Strengthener to pieces and when I went to buy a replacement, there wasn't any available.  So,...
