Scrumpies of Mayfair Knicker Review

Image
Hey everyone Last week I was sent a pair of Scrumpies Knickers to try out and review! Below I have included a few pics and my thoughts on the knickers for you all to read. Enjoy. "Scrumpies of Mayfair was founded by British husband and wife team Vicki and Ian who both retired early from successful careers as international corporate lawyers to fulfil their long held ambition of bringing alive the Scrumpies’ dream. Their vision for Scrumpies of Mayfair was to turn an everyday essential into a thing of beauty. Scrumpies’ knickers are intended to be miniature works of art – as beautiful and collectable as fine jewelry." (-Scrumpies of Mayfair) Initially I was very impressed with the packaging of the knickers which speaks high-end luxury. They came in a turquoise blue box and were packed carefully especially where the charm was kept. The knickers were displayed nicely and the whole box means that the product is kept very well protected. I love the idea of the design o

Quick Update and Hello

Hey everyone. I am so sorry I have been away from the blog and Twitter recently. Things have been very busy for me at the moment as I just started my new job this week so have been putting my energy elsewhere. Sorry! I will be back soon though..yay! However, I feel that it is important for me to be honest with you all and myself. Truth is I have not been coping very well at all over the past three weeks. Unfortunately I am going through a difficult time and this has triggered my anxiety and depression. It is the worst timing ever as I am trying so hard to carry on as best I can especially being in a new job. As you can imagine it has been a real struggle and this week has felt like the longest ever. Thankfully the place where I have started working seems really cool and all the people I have met are all genuinely really nice people.....but I only keep telling myself all of the negative things. For example, I keep telling myself that I don't deserve this new job or that I will nev

Yoga or meditation This has been one of the best things ever for me! I started yoga in March around about the time my anxiety and depression got really bad again. At this point I had also started to see a counsellor and she recommended yoga and meditation to me. There are lots of groups and classes you can join although the

T-Zone Charcoal & Bamboo Self Heating Mask

Image
Recently I was lucky enough to attend the Bloggers Festival in London organised by Scarlett Events. T-Zone were one of the many brands who attended the event. The T-Zone stall was one of favourite’s as those hosting were very fun, gave great information about the products and were super helpful. I picked up a sample of the self-heating mask and I used it for the first time yesterday evening.  I was impressed with how much product is included in each sachet, I actually only used half as I felt that this was enough for me to work with. I splashed my face thoroughly with warm water first before massaging the mask into my skin. The self-heating mask felt so soothing and relaxing on my face and the more you massage the product the more it heats up. I really worked the face mask into my skin and left it for a few minutes just to work its magic. The mask is not designed to dry, harden or peel-off so once the time is up you just need to wash it off with warm water.  After washing t

MUOTD - Urban Decay Heat: My Makeup Look

Heeeey everyone Sorry for the late blog post. Things have been super busy for me lately so it has been difficult trying to squeeze in time to add to my blog…sorry! Anyway, just thought I would share my makeup of the day with you all. I decided to go heavy and use red and orange shades from the Urban Decay HEAT palette. I am so in love with this palette and cannot believe I did not buy it sooner. I purchased it about two weeks ago from London (House of Fraser) and I have only just used it. All of the shades are so beautifully pigmented and they really compliment my skin tone so I am delighted! If you have not tried the HEAT palette yet then I really recommend you do! Go and check it out at your local store if you can. Unfortunately I live in a town where it is difficult to get your hands on good makeup, hence why I have to travel out of town or order online :( Hope you like this look and enjoy the pictures. List of shades used: - Lumbre - He Devil - Dirty Talk - Scor
