November Collective Haul

It's officially less than a month till Christmas :) How does it feel? Here in Malta, shopkeepers are already busy decorating their premises and hosting mini-sales and I couldn't help but to shop for a few essentials as well as some impulse purchases as it so often happens. From Tally Weijl, I bought this cashmere feel polo neck just because I desperately need some knitwear and from Peacocks I...

Monthly Favourites: November

This month I have a mix of old and new favourites and I will start with the new discoveries first. My absolute favourite this month was the E.L.F Studio Lip Exfoliator which keeps my lips soft and supple thanks to the exfoliating sugars and moisturising oils it is made of. I am a big fan of the sleek packaging too. Another new favourite from E.L.F. is the Studio Glitter Gloss in Sparkling...

The Exit Interview Series: Volume #14

This month I have quite a good number of products that I used up vs last month where I had none so I'm gonna get right into this post. The nail polish remover, concealer and face wipes certainly need no introduction and needless to say, I have already bought back-ups for them.  The Face Mask is from H&M and I got it and two others in Paris last month.  I am pleased to say that...

NOTW: Baroque Details

Baroque detailing is one of the biggest trends in fashion this season but it is definitely not for the faint hearted.  If however you still want to have a go at the look but fear you might look like King Louis XIV, you can always experiment with nail art for a minimalist take on this anything but subtle look. This week I had a go at some baroque inspired nail art myself, and as usual, here...

Review: Nair Milk & Honey Roll-On Wax

Good morning ladies! How many of you dread the thought of shaving your legs with a razor? I myself, am a self-confessed hater of such a hair removal method mainly because results only last a couple of days. I have been waxing my legs for around 10 years now and over time, I have noted that the hairs have gotten finer and I don't even get hairs on certain areas of my legs. Like most other teenage...

E.L.F., Essence & Catrice Cosmetics Haul

Good afternoon everyone :) This morning I went shopping with Mum and 2 of my aunts to beat the gloomy, grey, rainy weather.  Sadly, I didn't find anything that fit so as soon as I saw a pharmacy that carries Essence and Catrice products, I knew I was going to indulge myself a little and that I did. I only got a lip gloss from Catrice while the rest of the products are from Essence. There...

Review: E.L.F. Studio Lip Exfoliator

Finally, it's here sitting on my vanity! As you can tell by the title of this post, I am talking about the E.L.F. Studio Lip Exfoliator for which I have been waiting ages to be available on the E.L.F. Cosmetics UK website. My lips get chapped every so often and while a good lip balm helps restore moisture levels, it won't remove all the flakiness that usually accompanies chapped and wind-burnt...

Review: Born Pretty Store Flocking Powder Kit

It's time to jump on another nail art bandwagon and this time I am talking about the Velvet Manicure which basically involves the use of flocking powder to give the nails a 'fuzzy sweater' effect. Thanks to Born Pretty Store, you can now achieve this look without the hefty price tag that accompanies the high end kits.  The BPS kit comes complete with all that you need to create the velvet...

NOTW: Contrasting Stripes

Good morning everyone! As it so happens, whenever I have some time to myself, I am usually searching for nail art ideas for clients and myself on the internet and I keep all the pictures that I like in a folder.  This week, I was flipping through these pictures and there was this design with alternating green and yellow nails and contrasting stripes on each of them.  Although I liked the...
