What's that wonderful smell?

Oh it's just me :)


Because I am, lets face it, a technical genius, I (somehow) managed to figure out how to get the blooming laptop to flip photos round. Hells yeah! So, yes it's a shitty camera and not my lovely new one but at least photos are the right way (so stop complaining you!)

Anyway...

Mandarin and Mint. Odd smell there, but I have to admit I think It smells delicious. The best bit about this is that it foams! 

Remember how excited you got when you were little and the bathroom had foaming soap!?!? It's like that EVERY time you shower except this smells about 150 times better!!! I love the slightly odd smell it's definitely more fruity than minty. It's delicious! 

£6.50 is not a bad price considering how little you have to use, treat yourself :)

NAIL me anytime : Razzle Dazzle

So in last months glossy box I'm sure the whole world and his dog is aware we received Deborah Lipmann's Razzle Dazzle:

Yes I do know its the wrong way round :| Blame the computer

It really is rather lovely! 

I was so excited when I found out this was one of the products and soooo unbelievably annoyed when it arrived the day after I got home from university. Sigh. That my chumlets is my life... (I'm allowed to be self-pitting I can't walk!)

I love nail varishes with big glitter, never really been a huuuuge fan of small glitter it sort of reminds me of being a kid wearing sparkly polish. But this is lovely:


It's quite sheer when it's on in one coat but in two is a lovely maroon/wine colour. It's gorgeous! I'm assuming it's just me and my (ridiculously) bad habit of biting and picking at my nails but this started chipping in just 2 days, but for this I shall happily blame myself.

I don't know if I (as a scrounging student) would pay the RRP of £16.00... I don't think so but then I'm reluctant to pay over a fiver for any nail varnish. Overall I'm mighty glad we got the chance to try this!



Loving it glossy box!!

Smell me baby ;)

I was perusing Boots the other day and I went over to check how much my favourite Flake Away by Soap & Glory and I saw this little beauty:


I cannot describe how amazing this smells to me! It is absolutely delish! The Lime in it (in my expert opinion) makes it smell amazing. 

It is £8.00 from Boots 

I really think I will have to go treat myself. Or perhaps due to my broken foot I'll order it online and wait for it to get to me :) It truly smells amazing, possibly better than the other two scrubs... Think I'll need to get it and get back to you on that. 

Stay smelling beautiful!

An officer and a Miranda

I was just watching Miranda season one episode 3 where she has about 3 different jobs in the one day and at the end is Gary in his uniform. For a brief second it flashes to Richard Gere's uniform from An Officer and a Gentleman.

Oh my god I think my heart skipped a beat. I haven't watched that film in so long. But I'll never forget how (annoyingly) much I cried! Or (equally) how hot Richard Gere was in that uniform!


I have to watch this again in the near future, convince myself that men like him really exist, love like this really exists. 


Richard may be old and gray... but I'd have that silver fox anytime!!! 

Broken :(

So I'm all laid up in bed due to this mother F*****;


I was out on Friday the 13th (Unlucky for some :| ) and some bitch in a stiletto broke my fifth metatarsal. Or just broke my foot whichever makes the most sense.

I HATE PEOPLE.

Also WHY ME?!?!

I am so unimpressed, if you can't tell.

However, I am enjoying watching The Fat Fighters and The Biggest Loser, yes crappy TV but I'm broken so I'd argue that it's allowed :)

Also because I just got back to uni I got both my December Glossybox and Carmine box... Still haven't cancelled one... I don't know which is better?!?!

Hope Friday 13th was nicer to you my lovelies :) xxx

You can rub this on me any day ;)

and any way ;) oooh errr. Very Naughty.

The relief of passing my exams has made me go mental. I was thinking of going to bed and reading Sherlock Holmes but then I decided I'd very quickly do a post on my favourite Soap and Glory products.

I can honestly say these are the only two body products (besides the usual; E45, shaving foam yada yada) that I would always repurchase and my loving mother kindly bought me a new;

Smells divine! It's amazing and leaves my skin feeling so soft and smelling delicious.

Even opening it in my room to take a photo let out the beautiful scent. I swear if it didn't have a warning on it I would probably eat it :p
It is currently £9.45 at boots . So if you are literally the last person in the whole world to try this then go on, its just been Christmas!

Possibly my favourite, and I'm nearly done so I may have to part with my own cash for a new on is;


Trust me when I say no one wants to see the condition of my Flake Away. It's been "well loved" and I really really do. If it's possible I think it smells even better and makes my legs feel like they've already been moisturised. This product is amazing. 

If you haven't tried either of these then go do it. They are amazing! 

Much love xx

Lovely new Hat ;)

Well, it is Christmas time... sort of. But it's still bloody cold in Scotland. And I do need a hat! That cannot be contested!

However, do I need a hat costing £32 pounds... well no. But It was the last one! I loved it since I saw Fleur ( youtube ) wearing it. I looked for ages, then gave up hope.

Went shopping with the boyfriend back in Edinburgh and Oh My God the last one left!


It's extravagant . It's silly. Awfully expensive for a novelty item. But I just love it. A woman told me today it was lovely so I stand by my "ridiculous" ( as the boyfriend put it) choice.

I'm currently loving on my nails;


I appreciate the picture quality is poor. But the colour on the nails is very true its Elf  - Red Velvet. It's gorgeous it's red but definitely has the right amount of pink in it. It's gorgeous!

I'm planning on showing what I got over the university break, although not in the sales as they were rubbish! Massively excited to get my new camera :)

Love and kisses to you all. Oh look >>>> twitter :O :O :O
