Travel: Nice Market

Thursday 24 November 2016


While in Nice we visited the market they have looking for some souvenirs and bargains. The market runs down a strip in between restaurants in the old town and had lots of potential gift ideas and food. Which is always a must!

Jeffree Star Rose Matter Velour Liquid Lipstick Review

Wednesday 23 November 2016



I'm a massive fan of Jeffree Star Cosmetics particularly the Velour Liquid Lipsticks. One colour I have been dying to get my hands on for a while was Rose Matter. You literally have to keep up to date with the Jeffree Star social media accounts as restocks of each colour are sporadic and random.

Finally though I have my hands on this colour and wanted to share with you my thoughts and a lip swatch for pale skin. 


Kylie Cosmetics Ginger and Kymajesty Review

Sunday 20 November 2016

I had a sneaky purchase off of Kylie Cosmetics at the end of October. This was when they had the offer on that every order would receive a free Kymajesty Metal Matte lipstick.
I was really tempted by the Kymajesty when it was first released but wasn't sure if I would be able to pull it off so decided against it. When this offer came up I jumped at the chance, considering how much the delivery is a free lipstick seemed like a pretty sweet deal.

Along with the Kymajesty I ordered the single Ginger Liquid Lipstick. Here are my thoughts on both of these products and some lipswatches.


Lush Autumn Leaf Bath Bomb

Another week another Lush bathbomb to turn my bath water into magical colours. This week I am using the Autumn Leaf bathbomb, I have seen so many instagram pictures of this bathbomb and I knew I had to give it a try.

Korean Beauty from TK Maxx

Saturday 5 November 2016


I've heard so many rave reviews of Korean beauty products and how good they are for your skin. 
I've been wanting to try something Korean beauty wise for awhile and the other week while I was in TK Maxx I noticed they had a whole rack of these animal themed face masks. 
I already love a good face mask so I knew I had to try one. It turns out the face masks are actually animal themed and make you look like the animal on the box. You get three face masks in a box. This one is The Creme Shop Wake Up, Skin! Animated face mask. In rejuvenating coconut gel. This one in particular was £3.99.

Tour of Galimard Parfumerie

Thursday 3 November 2016


One of the tours we had while in Nice was a trip round the Galimard Parfumerie in Eze-village on the way to Monaco.
While here we were given a tour round where they explained how different perfumes were made and we were shown the process.

Nice: Day Out in Monaco

Friday 28 October 2016


Another of our many day trips out was to Monaco, this was something we had booked in advance as part of a guided tour.
They took us to Monaco ville and Monte Carlo, no sights were included but we had time in the tour to go visit them.

Lush Northern Lights Bath Bomb

Thursday 27 October 2016

I've been slacking on the blogging scene again being ill and uni work has kept me busy and I've honestly just felt quite demotivated. I have so many draft posts and I just haven't found the time to write them. One thing that has inspired me to get back into the swing a bit is the Halloween/Christmas Lush products.

A Day in Cannes

Tuesday 18 October 2016

While in Nice we took a day trip out to Cannes known for the glitzy film festival and stunning scenery.
We lucked out and the weather was sunny and incredibly warm. We were hoping to have a tour of the Palais des Festivals but happened to visit while there was a business conference on.

The Worst Holiday Experience I Have Ever Had

Sunday 16 October 2016


I want to do a wonderful post about my holiday in Nice and talk about the culture, the food and the stunning views, but before I can do that I feel I need to get this post out.

There was one major thing that put a dampner on the whole holiday, there are many ways it could have been avoided but the main thing is that it is not what you expect staying in a 4* hotel.

If you were looking for a happy holiday post this is not the one, wait for the next one.

I want to note that this was purely my experience and if you have been there before you may have had a different far better one.

Restaurant Review: The Indian Lounge, Nice

Saturday 15 October 2016


Last week I was on holiday in Nice, France (there will be a blog post specifically on this shortly) 
While there we ate at a restaurant called the Indian Lounge. Located in the Old Town down one of the sides streets, this bright colourful place caught our eye and the aromatic smell of delicious Indian food drew us in. 
The restaurant was so unique and beautifully decorated that I felt it deserved its own blog post.
