I’m mad about candles. An evening isn’t an evening without one. Occasionally I light one to help me work and I always light one in the bath. They make me feel serene. I’m also a huge fan of organic bath products so I was delighted to try some Neom products. Neom is a luxury organic...

Dear Santa, I would like a Christmas gift from Lush :) ….   Best Wishes… Three limited edition Christmas products all wrapped up in one beautiful gift. With best-selling Christmas classics Satsumo Santa and So White bath ballistics and the brand new Superstars bubble bar. Best...

I love this time of year, Christmas collection time. Here’s a little look at the products I got from The Body Shop’s collection. I did a little experimentation with some Christmas decs for a more interesting photo :) I was delighted with myself….   More pictures Firstly,...

I have been dabbling with Lush Lip Tints for the past few weeks. I had one in the past, a raspberry shade, that I used occasionally as a lip balm rather than as lip colour. I have found three that I really like. Here they are… Left to Right: Chilli Tingle, Celebrate, Latte   And some...

So I’ll get right to it. I love Lush. It is a love that will last forever. I would have thought that I couldn’t love them more but to today a package full of new products arrived. New? I’m so excited (can you tell?)   Rose Jam Bubbleroon Bath Ballistic (€4.50) Lush say...

I completely forgot to share my Glossy Box October haul. If you don’t know what Glossy Box is – it’s a subscription service where you pay £10 each month and you are sent a beatiful box with five luxury beauty products. (I have already blogged about it so click on the link if you...

I’m trying out another Voya product this week. This time it’s a mask called Maskerade. This one is geared at dry,  dehydrated skin. Perfect for Winter. Like all Voya products, Maskerade is made from hand harvested seaweed. It’s also organic. Yay. I have used it roughly five times...

I love and adore PHYT’s products. No gunk (code: harsh chemicals), they smell natural, they’re gentle on sensitive skin and they actually work. What more could I want eh? I know, a travel collection!! I’m a sucker for a travel kit. Enter the Bionatural Cocoon Travel Collections… Each...

I’m a big fan or Carmex as you know. Whenever they release a new product I run out and buy it right away. Although I quite enjoyed the Strawberry version that came in a tube, I found it lacked the lip healing properties of the pot. Last month Carmex launched Moisture Plus which are stick lipbalms...

This week is National Chocolate Week – like we needed an excuse to eat chocolate. In honour of the week in question I have a Malteser in my mouth as I type :) If you want to avoid adding inches though have a look at the goodies Lush have put together. Friends with Benefits massage bar (€8.70...

When I heard that Kylie Minogue and make-up artist Karen Adler were raving about Argan457 Metaserum I needed to check them out. For those of you who haven’t heard of the brand basically it’s all about top notch Argan oil products. I have been using the Long Lasting Eye Contour and Elixir...

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. I was greeted by the lovely Evelyn who took me through the treatment.  It consisted of mild acid peels (more information below) which are applied 4 times during the...

My moisturiser of choice lately is Geranium & Thistle Skin Cream from Pai. Apparently it’s Saoirse Ronan’s moisturiser of choice and Natalie Portman loves the ranges. I had to try it. For those of you who haven’t heard of Pai, it’s a premium organic skincare range which...

I love a good highlighting product. Sure, I  have way too many but sure what’s one more eh?! I have been using a St Tropez Illuminator for the last week or so. The illuminator comes in a few shades for to suit different skin tones – Rose, Gold and Violet. I have the Rose version which...
