Throughout my pregnancy with Freddie almost 6 years ago, I took hardly any photos of my bump, or body and it makes me sad that I don't have many visual memories of carrying him. A combination of being a little older, and having seen so many precious babies sadly lost closely around me has given me a great respect for mother nature and the human body and what it goes through. So this time I endeavour to try and capture more of what truly is a magical time 🖤.
Well, Mumford and Sons were bloody amazing!!! And the o2 is such a brilliant music venue too, ive definitely woken up a happy girly 😍. On another note, here are the make up amigos that came with me ...🖤💜💗
Seriously had to stop myself packing these minis for our jolly today. MUST STAY STRONG. MUST LEAVE FOR HOSPITAL BAG!!!
The hubster and I are off on a little jolly tomorrow and as it will involve hopping on and off trains and the underground, the aim is to pack light! So it's the perfect time to crack out this cute microfibre cleansing cloth from @magnitonelondon, and as I haven't actually used it since receiving it in a past @tilibeauty box, now is the ideal opportunity. It boasts to remove all traces of make up with just warm water alone (even oil based), is washable and reusable 1000's of times over plus is quick drying. On odd occasions I do use another microfiber cleansing cloth similar to this and must say I still can't get my head round how they remove everything (even stubborn eye make up that some cleansers can't budge first time) but somehow they do! That's one less lotion and potion I'll be lugging around this weekend then. 👌🏻
It's not Thursday, but I'm throwing it back and rewinding to a few weeks ago when I was excitedly prancing about in my new @asos_maternity swimming coast ready for holibobs, and still had the ability to put my shoes on without pulling a variety of questionably disturbing faces. I really need to get my bum in gear and go swimming to get some use out of this beautiful costume before baby arrives! 🖤
Happy Monday lovelies! Say hello to my favourite dressing table drawer...the lippy drawer!! There's always something to satisfy my mood no matter the day or weather. What's your favourite drawer or part of your make up stash?? 💄💄💄
A little Sunday night skin care waffle heading your way as I've realised I'd used up all this @burtsbees Micellar Water without sharing my thoughts. Well, in a nut shell, it's a good'n, ticking a number of boxes such as gentle, effective, affordable, cruelty free, non offensive in the fragrance department. Plus I have a bit of a soft spot for anything Burt and once again have been impressed by another product! It also comes in a nice big bottle (354.8ml to be precise! 😂) so last a good while and is definitely worth looking out for. 👏🏻🐝
Despite how overwhelming the Black Friday Sales and run up have been (my poor inbox has taken a good battering) I have managed to grab a little bargain treat ready for my hospital maternity bag. As I've been totally fan girling over @lizearlebeautyco products as of late, I decided to pick up some of their minis in preparation. I grabbed the Revitalise Skin Duo which is essentially a tiny Cleanse and Polish and Skin Tonic, a Skin Repair Light Moisturiser for combi/oily skin, an Orange Flower Hand Repair cream and then to top things off received a free Gentle Face Exfoliator because I'd spent over £35. I also decided to repurchase the full size Rose & Lavender Cleanse and Polish as I've emptied my other and loved it so much and their was 15% off!! Have you managed to wade your way through the Black Friday emails and bag yourself a bargain yet?
So many empties, so little time! I've pretty much given up on writing blog posts about my empties, especially and there are quite a few products I repurchase again and again so find myself rewaffling about the same things over and over again, and nobody wants to endure that! However I have got through some lovely skincare bits over the last month or so, and here are some of them! (Would or have repurchased ✔/ wouldn't repurchase ✖) ________________________________________________ ☆@korres.skincare Wild Rose Moisturiser✖. ☆@thebodyshop Chamomile Eye Make up Remover✔. ☆@lizearlebeautyco Orange Flower Body Wash✔. ☆@sukinskincare Hydrating Toner✔. ☆@alphahskincare Liquid Gold Glycolic Acid✖. ☆@burtsbees Micellar Water ✔. ☆@andalounaturals Lemon Sugar Scrub Exfoliator ✖. ☆@thebodyshop Almond Milk & Honey Body Butter✔. ☆@caudalie Foaming Cleanser✔. ☆@bareminerals Clay Cleanser✔. . The items I wouldn't repurchase are not so because I didn't necessarily like them, but mainly because I've either tried better or just as good yet cheaper. Do you spot any of your faves here?
Aaah, Monday. How the heck did you roll back round so quickly?! Well I'm still living for the weekend and am still yabbering about @colourpopcosmetics goodies. Their Lippie Stix have been on the old 'to try' list for yonks so it would have been rude not to throw one in the basket would it? Especially as they're super affordable. After trawling through the swatches online I settle for this deep dusky matte pink Lumière. It's actually a bit darker than I was hoping for but still very pretty! Staying power seems as good as any other normal lipstick and the colour is really pigmented which I love. I just wish we had Colourpop over here in the UK as choosing shades online can be so tricky!🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️🤷🏼‍♀️
