Rouge Edition Velvet ~ Christmas Treats

It's that wonderful time of year again; We hit the first of the month & the countdown begins, ticking off the days until it's Christmas Eve. The thing I love most about this time of year is not only the sense of excitement which seems to hit everything & everyone, but the fact that shops everywhere restock to welcome the festive season, especially the big beauty brands! I spotted these wonderful lip colours a few weeks back, & in a variety of shades, I thought they'd be perfect for this year's festivities!

Magnitone Lucid Trial & Review

I hope everybody's having a lovely Monday as I come to you with another, extremely overdue blog post! For Christmas {yes, that overdue} I was thrilled to receive this as one of my gifts from my family. I'd heard so much about facial cleansing brushes & knew they could work wonders for your complexion, promising deep pore cleansing & gentle exfoliation, but I always thought they were well out of my price range. However, I discovered the Magnitone Lucid, & simply knew it would be at the top of my Christmas wish list!

Matalan & Alder Hey

So, a little while ago I heard the news that Matalan was teaming up with the Alder Hey Children's Hospital Charity to help raise money & awareness for the work this amazing cause do through the selling of these absolutely adorable alphabet scarves. At just £10 each, they are amazing value, & all of the proceeds go straight to the ones who need it the most; Alder Hey is one of the busiest children's hospital's, helping over 270,000 young people & their families through the toughest times.
