Usually when I attend blogger events they’re based in London, so I was pretty excited when I was invited to an event last week that was pretty local to me. The lovely people over at Atelier Salon and Spa invited me and a few other local bloggers over for an evening of pampering and to take a look at their range of products and services. Atelier is based in Redbourne, about 30 mins away from me, but I’d never visited before so wasn’t sure what it was like. So when I arrived I was surprised that it was based in this gorgeous old building, and all the rooms were filled with gorgeous little details – making me love the place already!
I arrived with my usual event sidekick Bex, and another great blogging buddy Louise, and then we met up with Sarah, Hannah and Emily. We were then all given these peach bellini type drinks in cute little jars, and some delicious canapes. Then we were shown around the salon, where we then all split off into different rooms to look at the different treatments.
Bex, Louise and I started off with skincare, where we all had our skin analysed and were recommended products that would help our skincare problems from Pinks Boutique, a brand I’ve not heard from before but they all smelt amazing! Then we moved on to another room where Sarah, Hannah and Emily were getting their nails done, and we all got a hand massage. I then had a look downstairs where I then got my hair done in an up do, which is something I don’t usually have so it was nice to get the chance to try something different!
We then met up with the rest of the girls and had bit of a natter before we went off. It was great fun to spend an evening with some local bloggers, and have an evening of pampering. It’s great to see what a local salon is offering, and I’m even tempted to take another visit myself!
Thanks so much to everyone at Atelier Salon for having us, and to Alastair from Pickle PR for the invite!
As you can see August was a good month for my empties. I’ve been trying to use up a lot of my products before I start buying more (not that this will work). I’ve never really done an empties post before, mostly because I’m lazy and only ever use up 1 or 2 things a…
I’ve never really been one for Valentines Day, and I never really have big plans for it. But the weather is starting to lighten up, and so is my makeup. Despite no big Valentines Day plans this year I’ve come up with a makeup look to mark the occasion. To start with I’m using my Bourjois…
Recently I’ve been on bit of a health kick trying to get back into my gym routine, and carrying on with my weight-loss mission. I’m carrying on with my Weight Watchers plan and trying to eat a lot healthier and exercise more, but this then led me to think about looking after myself from the inside too….
It’s no secret that I’m a complete nail varnish addict. If you’ve been a reader of this blog since the beginning all you would have seen is hundreds of blog posts dedicated to nail varnish. I love nail varnish so much that I feel like a part of me is missing if I’m not wearing it, and god…
Clinique is a brand I’ve grown up and loved. My mum first bought me some of their skincare items when I was going through my bad teenage skin times, and since then I’ve always felt very loyal to the brand. Despite this I’ve never really used much of their makeup products, only trying out a…
Mothers Day is a special day to treat your mums and to show them how special they are. I always like to show my mum how much she’s appreciated, but this year is extra special, 5 months ago mum had her stroke, and we’re all amazed with her progress. After giving us all such a horrible…
