This year I am taking my blog in a new direction, still beauty, but I want to include the new interest, saving money including creating a budget, making money and general tips. We are now, as a household, trying to give ourselves the opportunity to save for things we want to do, stay debt free and potentially pay our mortgage off early, without actually losing out on the stuff we…

Lola Rose Portabello Bracelet (GIVEAWAY)
Lola Rose Jewellery has always been on my wishlist so when I was asked to feature the Portabello bracelet and to give one away I was so excited. If you haven’t heard of Lola Rose they are stocked through Very and other stockists and are the brain child of Nikki Gewirtz who, at 30, received a piece of jewellery that invoked a sense of nostalgia and also helped her make…

Simply Scrub Rose and Soursop Review
I was recently asked to try some lovely organic scrubs from Simply Scrub recently and with it being that time of year that my skin needs that bit ‘extra’ care I was excited to give them a go. They came really quickly even though they were sent from the States and they are packaged really nicely in plastic jars with a screw top lid. You can also get packets like…

Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Bum Bum Cream Review
Bum Bum cream (pronounced Boom Boom, apparently) is a much hyped product from Sol De Janeiro. This is an American based company (although it says it’s Brazilian…) who produce this product and I have heard so many people talk about it on their YouTube videos.

Haircare Mythbusting: The “No Poo” Phenomenon
You are probably familiar with the “no poo” (the “poo” as in “shampoo”) method of cleaning your hair. It’s not exactly a new phenomenon, but it is one that is surprisingly enduring. Barely a day passes without a wellness or beauty blogger commenting on how No Poo changed their hair for the better; reading through such praise, it’d be easy to think that No Poo is the hair care solution…

Within the last few days we have had to say goodbye to pic monkey (well those who use the free service) as you can no longer export pictures for free. I myself will still use it as I do pay for the annual membership, I really enjoy it and I have always paid for it BUT there are plenty of other places to go for picture editing: Desktop These sites…
