The best anti-ageing treatment ever!

I have found the best anti-ageing treatment ever! Tall order, I know. I recently popped into Akina Beauty for an Image 4-Layer Facial.

Haul Video – Clothes, bags…

I did a spot of shopping this week. I mainly shopped in H&M and New Look (loving their mothership in Jervis Centre!!). I bought nothing in Dundrum on Monday, the shops were full of junk thanks to the sales. On another note, is it just me or is everyone and their mother wearing one of the same three...

Egyptian Magic Skin Cream – If Kate Hudson Loves it, I need it!

As soon as I heard that Kate Hudson is a fan of Egyptian Magic Skin Cream I had to try it. Besides the fact that I love that woman I would also die to have skin even half as pretty as hers. Sure, she has beauticians and dermatologists at her finger tips. Since that’s not attainable for most of...
