21 days guys, 21 days until Christmas!!
Who is excited that I am doing my November favourites? I am!
November flew by and now its the official countdown to Christmas.
It was a crazy month so I do apologise for this post being late, But hers  is my November favs!

First favourites of the month has to be Redken Shampoo and Conditioner. In the summer I got highlights to lighten my hair and then recently I dyed the bottom half of my hair. I have never dyed my hair before this so my hair was in a good condition. Since dying it, it has felt weak and like straw. It was frustrating because like I said my hair has always been soft. My hairdresser recommended these products. I was a bit weary since I have quite oily hair but it has worked wonders. My hair has became soft again and the products smell amazing. It has been a major lifesaver and I would highly recommend.



Next up is PINK 'Hot Crush' body lotion and body mist. I have been loving the warmer smell of these. I used 'SunKissed a lot throughout the summer but this is perfect for this time of month. The scent is Jasmine mixed with warm caramel.
 I did write a review/haul about all the PINK products I bought whilst in America here. 
The body lotion is fab on my skin and the body mist is great after the shower. 



I have also been loving my 'Let It Go' Primark pjs, a few months I bought a Princess Pjamma top but it was 3/4 sleeves so it got cold whilst I was sleeping so I purchased this. They are super cosy an so cute. 

My favourite bath bomb has to be 'Father Christmas'. It smells like 'Snow Fairy' and it turned my bath green, it was really moisturising and made my skin really soft.
I am so tempted to buy another one! 

Lastly and probably my favourite has to be 'Let It Snow'. I was given this book as a gift for my christmas a few years ago. I have only really read the book in full once so this year I am determined to finish it. 
It has three different stories but they all come together at some point of the book. I would definitely give it a read. 

December will be such a exciting month, hope you are all having a great day!!!

Hey guys, last night was my works Christmas party so I thought I would share what I 'wore' on my face.


Face

Nars Sheers Glow
All time favourite foundation, sets perfectly and great coverage.

Nars Laguna Brozer and Nars Orgasm Blush
I purchased this duo in Sephora and love it. 

Hourglass Ambient Light Palette 
These beautiful shade give a stunning highlight. 

  

Eyes

Benefit Bad gal Lash
This has to be my favourite mascara, it makes my eyelashes look super long.
I also find the applicator works perfectly on my eyes. 

Naked 2 Basic Palette 'Cover' 
I used this to fill in my brows.

Mac Cinderella Studio Eye Gloss 'Lightly Tauped'
I used this as a base, it was great to hold the shadow as well as giving my eyes an extra sparkle. 

Mac RiRi Palette 
I used the 2nd from the top on my lids  first then applied 2nd from the bottom in my crease to add depth. I then used the 1st shade as a highlight in the corner of my eyes as well as under my brows. 
It create the perfect glam eye. 

Lips

YSL Glossy stain '17, Babydoll'
A simple pink to work with my big eyes.

Extras

I then used Tanya Burr's Date Night Eyelashes, and sprayed my face with Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray and I was good to go.

Sorry about the pout, these were the best pics ;)

Hope you are having a great day!
25 days until Christmas!

I AM LITERALLY SO EXCITED THAT I AM BLOGGING ABOUT THIS. 
I have been waiting forever to be able to get my basket and shop the Lush Christmas Products. 
As you can tell it is my favourite time of year and Lush releasing these products gets me far too excited. 
I hope you enjoy browsing the products and hopefully you can get inspiration to go into Lush yourself.



First of all, back at the start of October I got a message from Keira saying that Lush had brought out an advent calendar. We were super excited, maybe too excited, that we bought it there and then.
We never researched what the 'Sleeps 'till Christmas' was, but we both assumed that is was the advent calendar. Fast forward a couple of days and it arrives on the door step. 
I opened it and knew right away that it didn't look like a advent calendar and right I was to find out that we had ordered the wrong thing :(
It wasn't an Advent Calendar it was just a set, with a countdown on the top. 
But it is still very exciting as it features some of the new range so we were happy anyway.

It contained 6 items. 'Five Gold Rings', 'Snow Angel', 'Intergalactic', 'Father Christmas', 
'Frozen' and 'Peeping Santa'.
As you can see I have already used 'Intergalactic' and 'Frozen. I really needed a bath bomb to relax and I thought they were the least 'Christmassy'.
 I loved 'Intergalactic' for its colours whereas I loved the smell of 'Frozen'
I am exited to use 'Father Christmas' as it smells a lot like Snow Fairy. 'Peeping Santa' is just adorable. I am weary to use 'Five Gold Rings' and 'Snow Fairy' as Lush glitter products can sometimes make my skin greasy but never the less it is still exciting.

I then went into Lush with Keira to browse the collection, there was so much amazing stuff. 
We both got our baskets and went a bit crazy.
As you can see from the picture I picked up 5 things!
'Dashing Santa', ''Yog Nog', Luxury Lush Pud' 'Candy Mountain' and 'Star Dust'.

I picked up 'Dashing Santa' as it looked so cute. It has a citrus, sweet scent. Reading reviews I can't wait for it to turn my bath red.

'Yog Nog' went into my basket as I loved the scent. It has a very sweet smell of toffee. It also has a pretty design. As you can see I have used this already. I absolutely love it. As it says on the website it 'Create creamy, comforting water' and that is exactly what it does. It was so lovely to relax in the bath and just soak. It was so moisturising  which meant I never had to apply
any moisturiser after my bath. It smelled  amazing so I would highly recommend.

Luxury Lush Pud' is probably the bath bomb I am most excited about. Like the others it just screams Christmas and looks adorable. But this one smells like Lavender. I always find lavender bath bomb so relaxing. I am going to wait until Christmas Eve to use this to calm me down ;)


'Stardust' just looked sweet and innocent. Having already used this I can't remember 
exactly how it smelled but is was very sweet.
After it fizzed out there were tiny little multi coloured stars!! Overall I loved this!

Lastly and most importantly CANDY MOUNTAIN! This has to be my all time favourites scents. I can't beat Candy Mountain!
I think someone should start a petition to get Candy Mountain all year round.
I can't wait to use it!






Hope you enjoyed this haul, Let me know if you purchased any? 
Who is excited that it is 32 days until Christmas?!!!

Happy Sunday, hope you are having a fab day so far. 
As it is nearing Christmas Matalan once again are supporting Alder Hey Children Charity.

If you remember last year Matalan released Alphabet scarves. They sold them in all Matalan stores and raised over £650,000. 
This year they have changed the campaign to Bobble vs Beanie.
                                       

Many celebs have been getting onto the action, Britney Spears, Abby Clancy, Kylie Minogue  etc have all chose a side. 
                                                             



       All  money raised through this campaign goes to help the Alder Hey Children's Hospital. 
As a Matalan employee I know how much it helps the Alder Hey Children. 
This video shows what the money raised goes towards. 
To know more about the campaign click on 
http://www.matalan.co.uk/beanievsbobble

There are many different colours and like I mention you can either chose to be a bobble or a beanie. 
Personally I love the pink bobble, so I am Bobble. 
Remember once you have bought your hat, post it online and hashtags either #IMABOBBLE or #IMABEANIE. 
This is a great cause and is perfect for the winter but also as a Christmas gift. 
Shop the hats here! 

I am not being biased as I am a employee but they are super cosy and really cute.
I am also not being paid for this post.

Let me know what side you are?! and remember to post your pic on The Matalan website.
Have a great day
Love Emma

Happy Sunday everyone, hope everyone is have a great day so far.
Today I thought I would share 'What is in my bag'. I did post a Handbag Essentials a few months ago but I thought I would update you. 




First of all the bag that I am using at the moment is this beautiful bag that I got for my 18th birthday 2 years ago. It was from my parents, from  Marks and Spencer's. Like I said I have had it for a few years now but it is still in tac and perfectly suitable. It has three compartments, as well as the pockets at the front which is perfect to hold all my stuff. I don't  have specific places for each items but it is great for holding everything. I absolutely love this bag and I love the colour, it is so useful for shopping and going out. 





                                                                                               Now it is Autumn/Winter an umbrella is  completely essential, I am in love with this Cath Kidston umbrella, it is so pretty and I love it so much. You never know what the weather will be like in the UK so I will always have this in bag.

Hand Gel will also  always be in my bag, it goes without saying why you need hand gel in your bag but this one is actually from Primark and is the nicest smelling one I have came across.

Head Phones again have to be kept in my bag. They are just the average Apple headphones but they do the job. 



                     
I could talk about Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream for days but like I mentioned in my Autumn Essentials it has been a life saver. I love to keep them  both in my bag.

The Hand Treatment obviously for when my hands get super dry and they need moisturised , but also The Skin Protectant. I find this amazing to help dry and chapped lips, with the colder days now drawing in this will be a must have. It is so handy just to apply on your lips if you don't feel like lipstick.
On the contrary, I keep what ever lipstick I have been wearing that day, I have been wearing this Bobbi Brown Dusty Pink recently.  





Then I have my new make-up bag which, as you can tell, is from Victoria Secret. I absolutely love this make-up bag. I purchased it whilst in America and it is just so pretty. I love the colours and find it is just 'So Me'. 

If you want me to do an updated 'What's in My Make-Up Bag' let me know as it has changed.

Then I have my Cath Kidston mini compact mirror. A mirror is always essential .. Am I right?;)






The last three thing that I keep in my bag are my One Direction Portable charger. A few weeks ago I went to see One Direction, I went VIP. The package came with a free gift. Last tour it was a watch that I have never seen since but this time they gave you a charger. 
It is the best thing ever, it was fully charged which meant I used it on the night. It is great to have as IPhone battery is shocking, it also tells you how much charge it has left.
Props to the 1D team. 

Then I have a Body Shop lip balm that has been in there for a while, but it has a watermelon scent so I can't throw it away. 

And Lastly, A notepad. If you seen my birthday haul then you'll know that I received this from my Gran and Auntie.  It is the right size for my bag and really handy to jot down ideas and notes.


I also carry my purse which you can see in the main picture. My purse is from Kate Spade and I purchased it whilst in America, the size makes it really easy to fit into any bag. 

I hope you enjoyed nosing in on my Hand bag. 
Hope you all have a great day!
Love Emma
