BANANA & HONEY FACIAL RECIPE

Give your skin a boost with this at home banana and honey face mask recipe.

YOUR FEET SMELL LIKE PEPPERMINT

I have always had quite dry feet and so was on the look out for a good product to specifically take care of just that very problem, and this Body Shop purchase turned out to be just what I needed. 

MAGNITONE LUCID CLEANSING & EXFOLIATION BRUSH | REVIEW

I have always had trouble with my skin so love it when I get the chance to test out new products. Cleansing brushes have been all the rage recently and to see if they live up to the hype, I've been testing out the Magnitone Lucid Cleansing & Exfoliation Brush* (£69.99) and here I am a week later to report my findings. 

MY TOP 4 DRY SHAMPOOS

Ear drum bursting music, extreme mosh pits and mud up to your elbows. This could only mean one thing: festival season is truly upon us. 

Amongst the wellies, sunglasses, and flower hair accessories that get packed in your fest backpack, surely the first thing on your packing list - a tent comes in at a close second - has got to be dry shampoo. This product has been my absolute savour when I've had to go several days without giving my hair a wash. So if you're one of the lucky ones heading to Glastonbury this weekend, or any festival of your choosing this summer, here are my picks of the best dry shampoos to keep your hair looking and feeling fab. 

CURRENT FAVOURITE HAIR PRODUCT

Many people don't know that my hair is naturally wavy/curly because I never have enough time to let it dry naturally. I find myself having to resort to using a hair dryer which acts as a straightener and robs me of my natural style. So how do I achieve wavy/curly locks when I don't have a few spare hours in the morn to let it dry naturally or use a curling iron?

PEACH NECTAR

This is without a doubt, my favourite lipstick of the summer! Maybe of the year, but we'll have to what until 2015 to see. So, what is the mystery best beauty buy in question...?

 When I came home for the summer after my first year at university, I was pleasantly surprised at the selection of lipsticks that had magically appeared on my dressing table in a make up bag. It turns out, my mum had decided to give me some of her lipsticks that she had never used. What a sweetheart my mum is.

STOP THE MADNESS

It happens to all of us. We get judged on our appearance. Some may say this is a normal part of life and we just have to deal with the fact that the prettier people get further in life - this could not be more wrong. Girl's and women these days are growing up with the wrong ideas of what it is to be beautiful, and how much importance should be placed on striving towards the ideal standards of appearance - the belief that if they look better, they are better. 

WAKE ME UP!

My  most recent makeup purchase is this: Rimmel London's Wake Me Up Concealer. I have heard a lot of good things about this product so thought I would try it for myself to see what all the fuss was about. Well, the fuss was justified...

ART OF FACES

Is makeup art? I believe we may have found the answer to that question in this. And the answer is yes.

Three extremely talented artists have teamed up to create the "Art of Faces" series. The team consists of photographer Alexander Khoklov, retoucher Veronica Ershova and make up artist Valerya Kutsan, who have combined their skills to make these optical illusion images. 2D or 3D?

FACE FIVE CHALLENGE TAG | BEAUTY

Today, I have decided to do a beauty post. Considering the fact that I have quite a substantial makeup collection, I honestly don't know why I haven't posted about beauty and makeup previous to this post. But nevertheless, here we go! This post is all about my basic 5 items that I use everyday.

The rules of the Face Five Challenge Tag:

1. Use 5 and only five products to create a complete makeup look

2. Each different product counts as 1 product

3. No palettes are allowed

4. Tag 5 others to complete the challenge

5. Have fun!

So here's my 5... 

MOVEMBER INSPIRATION | MEN'S FASHION

During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of millions of moustaches around the world, raising awareness and funds for prostate and testicular cancer and mental health.

Movember challenges men to grow a moustache for the 30-days of November, thereby changing their appearance and the face of men’s health. For the entire month, these selfless and generous men known as Mo Bros, effectively become walking, talking billboards for 30 days. Through their growing efforts they raise awareness for the often ignored issues of men’s health.

So, one week into Movember, here are some pictures of inspiration. Can you rock a 'tache like these celebs?
