I was in the Crescent Shopping Centre in Limerick recently and came across the brand new ESSIE stand in Shaws! Yes, you heard correct!! I was mega excited as I am a huge fan of their nail varnishes. I picked up a few and just wanted to show you a limited edition one for the Christmas season - Leading Lad...

I say the above in all my posts. I'm Irish and I like being so. I also love to try and support Irish brands which is why today I am excited to be reviewing an Irish scent. The product in question is from Inis. Now I have heard of Inis before. My mother has had a few of their products and if I'm being completely honest...

For the past while I have been trying out a new lip product. When it comes to the Autumn Winter months Lip care is very near the the top of my beauty regime! My lips become very dry and crack quite easily so I constantly have various products on the go.
Recently I have been trying out a lip balm from You Organic, an Irish...

This morning I was greeted by my November 2012 Glossybox. The theme for this months box is "Stocking Fillers". This seems appropriate because believe it or not, Christmas Morning is only 35 days away!! For anyone considering signing up, this might be of help to you to decide whether or not you think it's worth it. Here's...

When it comes to body washes I usually use two when I shower! As odd as that sounds, I have a reason for it! The skin on my arms is sensitive. If I use a very chemically or perfumed product I'm left with red patches all over my arms, and they tend to dry out too. Therefore I use sensitive, non scented products on my arms. But I like...

One of the newest and most exciting hair colourant products in my opinion is on shelves now. L'Oreal Paris Préférence Wild Ombrés is "the first ever mass market dip dye". In the past 2-3 years in particular Ombré and Balayage have been huge. I myself have dabbled and am still rocking the...

So recently I've been getting more and more into skin care.
I love a scrub with microbeads in it. I love to feel a scrub getting right into my pores and cleaning and refreshing my skin. I tend to overlook clear gel facial washes as I don't feel they fully cleanse my skin, but by doing this am I missing out on a whole...

Super quick post today with a handy little tip for Irish ladies shopping on ASOS. As many of you are aware the exchange rate of the £ and € leaves us Irish ladies more out of pocket. I'm sure we've all been in the situation, be it shopping online or in store, where you see the £ sign first and the product seems like a bargain..... until...

Some people have their "Holy Grail" products. This meaning a product that you can count on and come back to again and again. I don't have many of them, as I like change. I love to try out different products and don't always stick to the same colours, brands etc. When it comes to skincare this changes slightly, as too much change can...
