My first experience of bonded hair extensions!

“Life is too short to have boring hair”  I know I’m not the only one who dreams of long, thick, mermaid hair! My hair has been something of a chore of mine for the past couple of years. I hated it. It was a medium length with little to no volume and was extremely thin and damaged at the ends. It had been the same length, colour and style for years and I was getting increasingly bored.  I’ve always envied girls who are lucky enough to be blessed with beautiful, Rapunzel-like hair. But no matter how much I tried to grow it, it just wasn’t happening! That’s when I decided to finally...

“Paris is always a good idea” – Audrey Hepburn  I was lucky enough to spend the second week of August at Disneyland Paris (my absolute favourite place in the world!)

Mac Pro Longwear Pressed Powder Review!

Hand on my heart, Mac is honestly one of my favourite makeup brands of all time (along with Nars and Chanel to name a few!) But if I ever want to try out a new makeup product, I instantly check out Mac first. I don’t know what it is, but there’s just something walking out of a Mac store with a bag in hand full of beautiful new goodies. It just makes me happy (that’s not weird, right?)  As I was going on a week long trip to Disneyland Paris, I knew it was going to be an incredibly hot week, and I knew I was going to be wearing makeup for long periods of time. I wanted to treat myself...

First Impressions Review: Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation

“Happiest girls are the prettiest” – Audrey Hepburn  The moment Nars brought out this foundation, I’ve been lusting over it and fantasizing about it. I can’t be the only one that does this surely?! So after purchasing this foundation I decided to write a first impressions blog post, then once I’ve finished the bottle or I feel like I have enough opinions on it after using it for a while, I’ll write a follow-up blog post with my overall thoughts.  Nars is just one of those makeup brands that I constantly lust over and every girl deserves to own at least one thing from Nars!...
