I mentioned in my latest haul post that this year I’m putting myself on an 100 day spending ban. Me and the other half really want to move out of my parents house and get our own place, but we’re both terrible at saving money! We’ve sat down and worked out how we can get some pennies together, and one thing I’m going to do is to put myself on an 100 day spending ban challenge. I did one this time last year and completely failed, but this year I’m determined to give it a proper go!
I’ve decided to start my spending ban from the 1st January, meaning that the last day will be the 11th April. During this time I won’t be spending money on any beauty products, clothes, or things I don’t need. Although if I run out of something like deodorant, I will buy some more! I will also still be spending some money on social events, but I will try to cut back on these! I’ll also be posting an update on the blog every week, and I will confess if I slip up!
Anyone else taking part in a spending ban? Let me know how yours is going!

So to ensure that I keep my skin hydrated it’s important to invest in a good body lotion. One product that I’ve been absolutely loving this winter is Lavera’s Rose Garden Body Lotion*.

So I’ve recently gone out about bought Barry M’s nail effects in Black Magic and Pink Fizz after weeks of reading about them and wishing! And I must say I’m rather impressed! Before using the product I didn’t really know what to expect, and didn’t really know how it would work, but once I…
In the past year or so I’ve actually started to care about my skin. I never used to have much of a routine, it was more of a ‘take off my make up and that’s it’ kind of thing. Then through reading other people’s blogs I learnt more about the importance of skin care and…
I’ve been dying my hair for as long as I can remember. I think at age 11 I managed to convince my mum to let me put a semi-permanent colour on my hair and since then I haven’t stopped. I went through phases of changing my hair colour dramatically until I went bright red and stayed…
Yesterday I headed into London to meet up with a load of bloggers for the #JulyLondonMeetUp that the lovely Helen from Beautifully Superfluous has spent the past couple of months working hard to organise. It was a great day planned for us all to meet at Tiger Tiger in Piccadilly for a good beauty natter, before moving on to…
