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!

The other day I posted about my Christmas Nail Art designs and decided to have a play around with my nail art pens. One of the nail art designs I tried was a snowflake and as its now leading up to Christmas I thought I’d give it a go so that my nails can look all pretty…
So far I’ve been doing well at sticking to my ‘makeup mix up’s’, however I forgot to blog about it last week! This week I’ll still be using the Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation as I’m trying it out to review it, and I think you should try something out for a few weeks before reviewing…

Over the years I’ve found I’ve accumulated a whole pile of samples. Some are from past beauty boxes, some are from events, and some just seem to turn up from no where. I’m always excited to get a good sample, but often they just end up in my ‘sample box’ and I forget all about them. Lately I…
So here we are already, 2012!?! How insane is that?! Seems like only yesterday I was welcoming in the new year 2011, and now where here in 2012, crazy stuff. So how did I start my new year? I went up north to visit my boyfriend Chris, and we had a couple of friends over…
