Spring Scents: Marc Jacobs, Dot Fragrance

When it comes to fragrance the one brand I always go to is Marc Jacobs. With Lola been my all time favourite signature fragrance, I am always keen to try other scents from the brand. Fragrance Direct recently got in touch about their Spring Scents campaign and sent over Marc Jacobs Dot* which I was so excited to try. Other scents perfect for Spring include Gucci Bamboo (which is a current favourite of mine), Stella POP and Jimmy Choo Blossom.

Tips for Maintaining Long Hair

The one thing that I get the most comments about is my hair. I must admit, it’s rather long. I’m always getting asked how I maintain it so well and how I keep it so healthy.

I’m currently saving up for my big trip at the end of the year so my spending is pretty minimal. That certainly hasn’t stopped me from looking. Recently, there has been a few new make-up releases that have caught my eye. I still haven’t caved and bought the L’oreal Beauty and the Beast lipsticks which are available from the Italian Amazon website. I’m waiting for the Rose one to come back into stock. It’s…

My MAC Lipstick Collection

The amount of make-up that I buy using the excuse “I can blog about this” and never do is unreal. I’ve been lagging recently when it comes to beauty posts and I really love writing about new products. I certainly have enough products to talk about! Today, I’m finally doing my MAC Lipstick collection. I got a few requests last year to do it and I wasn’t happy with my photo’s so I sacked it off. I’ve recently picked up a couple of new MAC lipsticks so I thought this would be a perfect time to do a collection post. I’ve…
