Reviews Round-up: In need of good sleep?

I am sure that we all are so glad spring has finally arrived, and the last few days have been just amazing. This again reminds me how easily I get influenced by the weather. Are you the same? Apparently, as we had a very long winter, we should be looking forward to a really nice, [...]

Beauty Round-up: A fresh start?

I woke up today and realised, with something resembling surprise, that it’s already the 14th March.  In a very confusing time-travel manner it will actually be the 15th March when you read this, meaning that we have, in a manner of sorts, time-travelled to communicate with each other.  It’s a HUGE pity that I can’t [...]

Beauty Round-up: More moisturiser anyone?

It’s still snowing and I’m fed up with it now. Why do I care about the weather?  It’s doing horrendous things to my skin.  My lips are mimicking the Grand Canyon in texture, my hands are soaking up hand cream like sponges soak up water and my cheeks are pink from having the heating on [...]

  Did I get new beauty products for Christmas?  Of course I did!  I have myself an excellent manicure set with a brilliant selection of 20 different coloured nail varnishes and I was lucky enough to also get some new smellies to try; a Botanics gift set, a range I’ve been meaning to try for [...]

Beauty Round-up: PANIC! I need more time

  The time for this month’s beauty round-up has crept up on me ninja-like with the greatest of stealth and noiseless slippers. Regular readers of my blog, or more likely my irratic and irregular tweets, will know that I started a new job last week.  Not only is it a new job, but it is [...]

Beauty Round-up: Shedding the pounds for Christmas

  We may not be in school anymore, but September still brings with it an energy and impetus to get things done.  This month is all about shedding the pounds.  No, not because we are spending it all on Christmas presents already (though I know you are), no, I mean pounds in weight. I’ve followed [...]

Travel Round-up: Naughty names, dunes & yurts

There’s always something wonderfully childish about finding products in a foreign country which have a totally different meaning in English. Take the ‘Plopp’ chocolate we ate in Sweden in the summer: amused me immensely. Though not as much as a couple of the hotels we chose to stay in during our trip around the country. [...]

  Welcome to the second Britmums Beauty Round up.  I hope you enjoyed last month’s selection. This month I’ve been getting over excited about Shellac Nails.  Check out my review and pictures here. For those of you that haven’t yet heard of it;  it’s a new nail polish, that comes in a usual nail polish bottle, [...]
