Sick ..

I'm not feeling well at all, I think I've got the flu :(, so I've been watching Christmas movies in my bed ..  Anyway, the coat I'm wearing in this picture is from Zara and it's my favorite clothing item at the moment. It was expensive (125€) but totally worth it, it keeps me sooo warm and I just love it !

Lush ..

Since I moved to Dublin, my dry skin and eczema have come back at full force; so a few weeks ago I decided to take a trip to Lush to pick up products with natural ingredients in the hope that it would clear my skin. Previously, every time I had gone to Lush I felt a bit overwhelmed and lost because there were so much products and I didn't know what half of them were  used for, but this time I knew what I wanted so it was a lot easier and clearer to shop. The shop assistant did a little trial on my hand using these 3 products which are excellent for dry skin. 

♥ Dreamwash : The first product is Dreamwash and it's basically a body wash but it makes your skin feel amazing. It's also great for sunburns because it has calamine in it which soothes the skin :)

♥ BodyButter : Now this is my favorite product of all three. It's basically a skin conditionner; after you use Dreamwash you apply the bodybutter on wet skin while your still in the shower and then rinse off. Now it does leave a oily texture on the skin but I don't mind it at all because my skin is so dry. I love the way when you come out of the shower you don't feel "squeaky clean" but nice and moisturised. I am definitely repurchasing this again. 

♥ Dreamcream : This product is the best seller at lush and it's a body moisturizer. It is very good but for me it's too light. I like thick creams and this is more of a fluid. I think it would be amazing on normal skin. I do like the product but as I said it's not thick enough so I won't be buying this again.

Hot chocolate ..

♥ I'm soo excited because the christmas lights are finally lit in Dublin, spotify have their christmas playlist set up and it's starting to get a lot colder here. All of this calls for hot chocolate's in nice cafe's or at home and feeling all snuggly and cosy :). This is my favorite time of year by far and I can't wait for christmas ! It's in these times that I feel so grateful for having a family to spend christmas with, this year I'll be going to Cardiff and I can't wait. What are your plans for christmas this year ?

My new handbag ..

It had been ages since I bought myself a handbag and after my previous one "broke" I decided to treat myself to this Pull&bear handbag. It cost me 29€ and I love it. Perfect size, great quality and just overall a purchase I'm very happy with :).

Long time no post ..

I'm sooo sorry I haven't been posting regularly here the last few months but so much has happened and I didn't feel settled and ready to get on a schedule. As most of you may know I moved to Dublin alone to do a makeup course and to be honest it's the best decision I have ever made in my life, moving away. I feel I've grown so much in these past 3 months, I have met amazing people, I've had great and bad moments but overall the experience has been amazing ! I finished my makeup course about 2 weeks ago so I have had time to settle down and to think where I want to go next and what I'd like to do with my career. I've decided that blogging is what I want to do basically, I don't know where it will take me but I want to start posting a lot more regularly and be more active on social media. So yeah, that's my plan, I hope you all are well and I will write here very soon ...

MAC Cleanse off oil

Bonjour ! 

Since I moved to Dublin I have been looking for a good makeup remover that would be as good as my Bioderma which is setting a pretty high standard ! After doing a lot of research, I stumbled across Elle's video which you can find here about her bedtime routine. I know we both have the same type of skin which is dry/sensitive so that's why I often reach for the products she uses and the MAC Cleanse off oil was no exception. I treated myself to this product last week and I absolutely love it. 

It contains a lot of natural oils that dissolves the heaviest of makeup, and trust me I wear about 5 layers of mascara so I would know. It also cuts your makeup removing time in half because you gently work it into your eyes and skin for a few seconds, rinse with water and you're done ! 

It cost me 28€, and I think the packaging is simple but nice. I like the fact that there's a pump so you can control how much product you want. 

Overall, this is the best makeup remover I have used along with Bioderma. I also had a few spots on my cheeks and they all disappeared since using this so that's another plus. I would definitely recommended this product to any skin type & I will repurchase this again.
