As happy as I am to see the back of January (post Christmas blues & all that), it is a month where I enjoy working my way through newly acquired products. From some lovely bits I had for Christmas, to others I treated myself to when I wasn't quite so skint from the festivities, I've had the month to gather things together for a favourites video. Makeup wise I've found a couple of products that have gone straight to the top of my 'love list'. Most of what I've included here are items I've picked up based on reviews - it's always nice when beauty products live up to expectations! This is quite a chatty one, but sometimes it's nice to feel like you're having a bit of a natter! I love doing the short and sweet videos but when it's one where I'm talking I can end up with 30 minutes of video - although chances are 70% of it is me talking rubbish or where the camera is out of focus. Oh the joys of filming! Anyhoo, all product links a...

I wouldn't say I've gone mad in the January sales... Yeah, I managed to get a few bargains (mostly those Kiko purchases), but I haven't gone over board. I always find if I get too carried away I end up with a whole load of crap I don't actually need, just because there was a '50% off' sticked stuck on it. Instead, I've just bought a few bits I'd been after for a while - clothing basics I'd wanted to add to my wardrobe, and a fragrance I've been obsessed with for ages. If you haven't tried Noir by The White Company your need to go check it out... It's loverrrrly! There are a few extra bits in the video as well, alongside the usual rambles from me - I only had a little bit of time to film, but somehow I still managed to end up going off on a tangent! Editing always takes me such a long time... An outtakes compilation is well overdue! youtube  /  bloglovin  /   twitter   /   facebook   /   pinterest   /   tumblr ...

Let's be honest, on the crap scale, January can often make it to the top. Post Christmas fun and back to normality, I always feel like it's a month I just want to get through as quick as possible... In fact, if summer could start like now, that'd be loverrrrly! So, for January, I've got a little to do list of fun things to perk up the month. Nothing involves a huge amount of money (if you're like me, you're still reeling from spending over the festivities), nor a vast amount of planning. More small things to perk up the dullest of January days.  1. Do a ridiculous workout.  & not for the hopes of getting abs after the first 10 minute Legs, Bums & Tums sesh. Dare I say that over the last few weeks I've actually been finding exercise... Fun? I think when you alter your mindset to 'I'm going to do this to feel good at the end of it', rather than 'I've got to do this 'cause last night I ate a full Domino's pizza an...
