How true is this….
This is the beauty I am using at the moment by The Body Shop
I think using a face mask a few times a week does you the world of good. There’s some really affordable ones out there to the damn right pricey.
You got peel off, clay, sheet and overnight ones. Probably missed some other types out.
Take your pick and have fun 🌸
If you have been a reader of my blog for a while you will know that my skin is prone to spots. I dunno if it’s because I started puberty early but all these years later and I still get these pesky buggers on my face.
So I thought I’m going to make a box for when my skin is bad and then don’t have to hunt for all the products, they’ll all be in one place.
Using an old box from Birchbox and turned it upside down so the names on the bottom and filled it with the following
The Tea Tree anti imperfection daily solution which has a pipette ( like those things you used in chemistry at school) you just apply it to the spots before bed and it will help diminish the redness of them.
The anti imperfection night mask works like a dream. I have been using it this month on my face which chose to have a major break out. I’ve had it for ages and never used it. I can say my spots are nearly gone in 4 days of usage.
I love it when spot treatments come in travel sizes cos you can just put them in your handbag and off you go.
The Sebamed is really good if you need to get the oil on your face and under control. Not used it a great deal but definitely worth getting.
You all know that Dermalogica is a worldwide favourite for skincare and this little beauty is great for when you get hormonal spots, it seems to help them alot.
This Laidbare is similar to the Sebamed but is more of a cream. It’s specially formulated for oily to combo skin. Use it sparingly and it’ll last a long time.
Sudocrem has to be my absolute favourite for clearing up my spots. I dunno what’s in it but it works wonders and is only a couple of pounds.
I have only just added these patches and nose strips from Patchology to my box and not used them yet but I have read good things about them so I hope it’s true.
Why not make yourself a special box
For the past 3 months I have been subscribed to Latest in beauty
Which is not like any normal subscription box you get to pick the products that you want to receive.
So here’s my video I recorded yesterday when it came via Mr Postie
Let me know what you think and also do you get a subscription box each month, I’d love to know.
Who doesn’t love some festive nails…so I have included just a few that you can either get your nail technician to do or if you want to get creative, try them yourself.
Me personally I have naturally long nails so never go to a salon to have them done, and I only wish I had two steady hands instead of just the one 🙈
Happy Monday and I hope your as organised as you can be. There’s still 2 weeks yet.
This is a tired me, but so glad I got my smile back.
You see I went through school with braces on… No pictures to prove as I hated these metal things what I couldn’t remove so I shyed away from the camera.
Then a few years ago my dentist at the time seriously buggered up big time
So my teeth went from this pic above which look quite normal….
To this after just a check up and hygienist visit i was fuming
So they closed it up doing something called a bridge. Then after a year or so it started to go a bit grey on my right front tooth… So I enquired… You will have to have root canal they said.
So that was about 2 months ago and it totally killed my tooth so today I had my permanent crown on and it doesn’t look like it isn’t my actual tooth.
So the pic you saw at the start is a smile of thank fook for that as I lost my confidence to show my teeth. Now I can all I like.
That’s my little update.

Til next time
I was looking through some old photos of myself and it seems that the fringe has been a love hate relationship.
However I wanted to look at the ones of me with longer hair with one so I can decide what I’m going to do with my mop once it gets to that length.
So this is 2008 and I think that a boyfriend I was with at the time saw a old pic of me with a fringe and said I looked ‘hot’ with one so I went and got one, safe to say when he dumped me I pinned it back and grew it out 🙈
This next one was 2014. I had grown my bob that was blonde to above my shoulders and thought I’d dye it brown and bring back the fringe. I think in this pic I look younger than I did in the first. I think I got fed up of getting it trimmed and it went…again.
This is me today 2019 for future readers. This is a £20 amazon wig. I’m actually really digging it. It’s very close to natural colour so I can dream of when it’s this length. I may brave it and wear it out, well my theory is its gonna keep my ears warm in the winter.
Have you had any hairstyles that just keep creeping back in?
