Bath and Skincare Baskets

Both of my baskets are handmade and I absolutely adore both of them! I needed two baskets as I wanted to separate my bath products from my skincare products. The heart shaped woven basket is from Matalan and was £8 and my white handmade basket was £6.99 from Poundstretcher. They were both bargains and I ran at the opportunity as soon as I saw them! They are sat directly on top of my white chester drawers and make my room smell absolutely gorgeous! I also I have two vanilla scented candles sat in between the baskets just to add that extra sweet smell to my collection! Just looking at it everyday makes me feel happy and it also helps to keep my products in good condition! Would you guys like a Basket Haul?

Breath of Fresh Air and Ultrabland Make up Removal and Skincare

Today I'm going to show you how these two brilliant products that are both from Lush Cosmetics can take off make up, as well as keep your skin clear and healthy.

So what you will need is the 'Ultrabland Facial cleanser' and 'Breath of Fresh Air Water Toner' and also a face flannel or some cotton pads. Both the products I'm using can be purchased in your local store or online.

The first step is to get your Ultrabland facial cleanser on the tip of your finger, make sure you have enough to cover your whole face with.

Second step is to then rub the cleanser onto your face and make up. It will look quite messy and icky but don't worry we'll be wiping it off straight after, and also be careful not to get the cleanser directly into the eye.

Third step is to grab your face flannel/cotton pad and spray the 'Breath of Fresh Air water toner' directly onto it.


Fourth step is to then wipe off all of the cleanser and make up using the flannel/cotton pad. This should leave your skin clean from any make up and also really soft and smooth from the facial cleanser and toner water.

So that was my tutorial and step by step on how to remove make up using these two beautiful skincare products. I love using this technique as it is just such a gentle and easy way to remove make up, it also always leaves my skin soft and cleansed, just what I need before I go to bed! I hope you enjoyed this technique and leave a comment letting me know what your favourite skincare brand is and also if you would like me to do some more skincare tutorials! 

Eyesright Mascara from Lush Cosmetics Review

I had been dying to try out this product for months! I bought the mascara 2 weeks ago and I couldn't be happier with my purchase. The mascara itself contains fresh wheatgrass in it which helps condition eyelashes, leaving them strong and healthy. At first I was a little put off by the size of the product, until one of the Lushies who work there told me that the whole point of the small packaging is the small mascara wand. The wand is small so that you can scoop pretty much all of the product out, meaning none of the actual product gets wasted on the long wand. Therefore the product will last longer and you will get more uses out of it. I am extremely pleased with this product, not only do my eyelashes look and feel healthier, the mascara itself looks great! I will definitely be repurchasing this item for sure.

Fashion Essentials This Week

My fashion essentials this week have to be my black and white woolen jumper along with my black ankle boots. It has been really cold recently where I live, you can really tell that winter is here! This is where my woolen jumper has come in handy this week, its a very light jumper, so easy where underneath jacket and coats and also easy to layer onto. Its also quite over-sized which really does make my love for it even stronger as it feels more roomy and snug. I got this jumper from Primark (U.K) for £8.90 it was such a bargain I couldn't turn it down! It goes well with leggings and jeans, so casual everyday wear.

I bought my black ankle boots quite a while ago and have only just rediscovered them. What I love about them is the fact that I could wear them with any dress, skirt and even long tops with leggings and they just complete the outfit so much! They are a lot more comfier than I expected them to be and I can wear them for hours which I am really pleased with. I got them from New Look for £12, which again, is another bargain! Both the jumper and the ankle boots have really come in handy this week and they'll probably still be a pair of my essentials throughout this winter.
