Nails of the Day #6

Just a quick Nails of the the day post for you all! I am currently in Reading at University. Model's Own - Bronze Rage Words cannot express how much I love this colour. I wear it as often as I can, just so pretty! I aplogise if there are any spelling mistakes, I am typing this on Jamie's laptop and it doesn't work that well...in...

Freebies of the Week! #19

Hi everyone! Hope you have all managed to get through such a BLAHH week! I know the snow affected lots of people, then we had Blue Monday as well...time to start again eh?! This week's freebies have been mostly aimed toward Jamie. Which I think is a bit poo. This is the Redken for Men Clean Brew Shampoo. It has Anti Grit technology...

Lush Party Popper

For Christmas I was given 3 bath bombs from Jamie's sister. I haven't really had much experience with Lush. I always walked past the shop and thought, "Pwhoaarr that smells strong." So I never went in! Then when I was at university I won a competition to take me and nine friends to the Lush in Reading, for facemasks, massages and games!...

A Street Cat named Bob - James Bowen

The saying goes, "Never judge a book by it's cover." I'm not being funny, but it has a big ginger cat on it. I knew I would love this book.  I was right. Duhh. ;) Anyway, review time. This book is serious, funny, honest...and many words that I haven't thought of. It is pretty obvious what the story will be. Man finds...

Freebies of the week! #18

Only one freebie this week, but it's a goodun'! This is a sample of Pureology Versatile Caring Oil. I'm very excited to try this. I am also very surprised as to how much product has come in this sample! A 5ml sample should last me quite some time! Have you tried any hair oils? I'm thinking of trying some to compare! I...

Lacoste Touch of Pink

This is the first perfume that Jamie ever got for me. It was for my 18th birthday. I was not sure about it as I had never tried anything other than Anna Sui - Sui Love. However on my birthday meal evening, I sprayed it on and went out. Then six months later, at Christmas, he gave me another gift set with it in! He probably thought that...

Oily skin is okay!

Amber is the lady I go to when my eyebrows are humungous. I am TERRIBLE at maintaining my eyebrows. I get them waxed, keep them neat for a week or two, then all the hairs reappear. At that point I can't be arsed anymore and just go back to Amber. A fiver every month is alright, to have new eyebrows in less than 10 minutes! Whilst I was...

Revlon Lip Butter Win!

Until last month, I had never tried a Revlon Lip Butter. Blasphemy! Many fellow Beauty Bloggers may cry, but I have only recently been getting in on the beauty buzz. In 2011, Revlon's Facebook page had a competition called Sweet Boutique to win various beauty products. They did the same again last year, to win a Lip Butter. I won...

Love You Bye - Scott Mills

I used to love to read. Honestly, I couldn't ever get enough of books. I was the best reader in my school when I was 9,  put it that way! These days, I am so glued to my laptop, watching TV programs or blogging. Obviously I am reading when I look at blogs, but it's not the same as a book, eh? When I went to the library last week with...

Lindt Lindor Bars

So if you read my post about the Best of 2012 JolieBox, (or anyone else's!) you would know that two Lindt Lindor chocolate bars were included. (If you want to read it anyway, the post is HERE) Now a post dedicated to a chocolate bar is probably classed as a bit weird. But I like to give opinions on new foods. These chocolate bars...

November and December Empties

So once again, two months shoot past! I am getting better at using up all my products, so maybe I might start a once a month empties post? Else these posts are HUGE! Oh, and this post is VERY photo heavy! Another note: As these are mostly samples, would I repurchase can also be, would I purchase? Body Moisturisers  Bottle...

Nails of the Day #5

It's been too long since I have done one of these! I haven't had much work recently, so I have left my nails alone. After seeing the horrid shape and quite how badly mud seems to stain them...(!)...I painted them last night, ready for work later. Natural Collection - Hibisicus 17 - Glitter Nail Xtras I refuse to only have glitter...

Rimmel BB Cream

Yesterday I felt like trying something new but was in a rush. So I reached for this sample of Rimmel London BB Cream. I think I got this in a copy of Cosmopolitan. SPF 25, 9 in 1 cream...big BB cream promises once again. I should add that this shade is LIGHT. (A big hint for what is to come...)  I wish this photo could show...
