What I Got In My Christmas Box Swap


A few months ago I took part in Clare from The Love Of All Things Beauty’s Christmas box swap, and I was lucky enough to be paired with Clare herself! I’ve know Clare since my early days of blogging so I was really pleased to swap with her. I’ve taken part in a few box swaps in the past, and it’s always great fun to see what other people pick out for you. We agreed a spending limit and a day to send out our boxes, and I was super excited to see mine arrive just before Christmas.

I almost tore open my box when it arrived, I was so excited to see what Clare sent me. Inside was a book called ‘Cat Selfies’, which is full of hilarious photos of cats, a Natural Collection brown eyeshadow, and a No.7 cracker which had a mascara and eyeliner in. I’ve tried a handful of products from No.7 and Natural Collection before, but none of these so I’m pretty excited to try these out.

I’m glad I got paired with Claire, and I’m really happy with all of my presents! I can tell Clare knows me pretty well, especially with the Cat Selfies book, its given me endless amusement. Once again this was a great box swap, and I’m glad I took part! Have you done a box swap before?

You can see what I sent to Clare on her post here.

    The Only Way Is Blogging

    On Saturday 16th June I headed down to London for the fourth The Only Way Is Blogging event. I’ve never been to any kind of blogging event or met up with any other bloggers before, so I was rather nervous about the whole thing. I’ve put off going to previous TOWIB events in the past because of…

    I thought I’d do a ‘Whats in my bag’ post because I love reading these! It’s so interesting to see what other people carry around in their bags with them.     The bag in question is a new one of mine. I bought it the other day from New Look for £24.99. I really…
