I have become quite the nail polish addict lately. It could be just one of my phases but I’ve been changing my polish daily over the past few weeks. Today’s choice is Revlon Purple Petal. I’ll show you the colour before I do a quick review.. I love the colour. It’s the...

This is week 3 of my ban on chemical laden bath and body products. I am feeling quite proud of myself this evening :) I have not caved once! The reason for this is that I have quite simply made my own products from scratch. Now I know what’s going in my hair, bath and on my skin. I am happy...

I have braved the Maxi Dress. Yes, all 5 foot 3 of me!  This dress is 2 sizes too big for me, as you can see from the picture it’s just dangling. It’s about 4 inches too wide at the waist which is not a good look for  me.  I need to go find one that fits well. It’s also quite low...

Over the last few months I have been looking everywhere for a storage /display solution for my accessories. I looked online and in many shops but alas, it was not to be. My accessories were doomed to a life of misery in a miserable looking basket. Boo hoo for them! The problem was threefold; 1. I...

I have had such a busy day today. I thought I’d share :) I took 3 make-up bookings today. The first one was for a wedding in Kildare. I love bridal work, it’s like a dream job helping a woman look her best on her special day. The second one was for a make-up party, a few ladies looking...

As you may already know, I am a self confessed Perfume addict. I love scents, packaging, the sales spiels etc etc At one stage I would have called myself out of control when it came to buying fragrances. I’m ashamed to say that it’s a luxury I never denied myself. As I looked at my perfume...

  I decided it was time to end my Facebook resistance. I finally set up an account. I’m new to it so I’m quite sure what I’m doing and right now I’m all on my lonesome :( I’d love if some of you who have accounts could pop by and say hello! I’ll be running...

My very first YouTube video was a review on MAC Studio Fix Fluid. In a nutshell, I loved the coverage, the packaging and the quality. However, I was not so fond of the horrific cystic breakout I got after 3 days of using the foundation. I have never had acne and had no idea how painful it was. Sufferers,...
