I've been a 'Pink Parcel' subscriber for a couple of months and I must admit that now, I really don't think I could be without it! After a painful day at work, it's reassuring to know that you can go home for some indulging 'me' time and it's great not knowing what the mystery package contains - apologies for the spoiler!!
This Valentines-themed package comes with the obvious necessities as well as a rose, camomile and lavender Pukka tea bag, a Divine white chocolate bar, Organic Surge skin perfecting face polish, MUA Romantic Efflorescence palette, Pop Heart lip balm, MAD glitter lips nail file and a Bella Pierre no. 35 eyeshadow brush, PLUS a 20% off voucher for FlamingoCandles.co.uk and £25 off at Gousto.co.uk!
Led by a team of top London creatives, Another8 aims to bridge the gap between the familiar mass-produced high street and the often unattainable designer label. A fusion of street style and contemporary design, Another8's collections are urban but directional including statement separates, premium leather, key accessories and playful unisex pieces. The label already has a loyal following from British style icons such as Ellie Goulding and Cara Delevingne. Click the link below to go to their website!!

I absolutely love the Lush bubblegum lip scrub - they even do special edition scrubs at Christmas time! But at £5.50 per tub, I thought I would have a go at making my own. It was surprisingly simple actually, all you have to do is mix your favourite lip balm with a pinch of caster sugar and apply to your lips!




Don't get me wrong, I still love Lush and I would still buy the lip scrub every now and then, but this is a great cheap, fool-proof alternative for soft, smooth lips. Mwah! X
When it comes to mascaras, I'll hold my hands up and say I probably have too many, but the truth is they all do different things! I'm quite fussy when it comes to wands as I find it difficult to control the fat, fluffy brushes as my eyelashes are quite short. I thought I would put together this little guide to mascara wands...
