I'm not usually into a purely smutty book, but Jesus whept this has me HOOKED. It was hot as hell, really really hot. The smut is FIRE, so well done, over PAGES AND PAGES. And every taboo thought you have ends up being said by Cassidy or Greg, it lives up to expectations and exceeds. The story line is pretty obvious, I mean she is having s*x with her boyfriends Dad. There is an age gap, and he is a doctor. It's very predictable but in a very good way. I recommend this all the time, 200 pages and worth every second to read - I promise you will not be disappointed. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">The Stanton Series - TL Swan</span></b></div><div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Stanton Adore, Stanton Unconditionally, Stanton Completely and Stanton Bliss</span></b></div><div>I cannot express how much I LOVED this series. Joshua & Natasha were just perfection, I loved the twists. SWOON. From the minute he enters I'm hooked, the wedding was incredible, the TWIST! AAAAH. I loved the Tattoo, I loved the perfect mix of drama, Smex and the perfect man that is Joshua. I know a lot of people have said he was a d*ck, a man wh*re - and I totally agree, but I clearly need therapy cause I can't get him out my brain. This series will have you in tears, either from joy or hurt. Their family and storyline is just beautifully done, and I cannot recommend this enough. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>If you want to see more reviews, check out my <b><a href="https://www.goodreads.com/makeerinover" target="_blank">goodreads account here. </a></b></i></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><a class="blsdk-follow" data-blsdk-type="button" href="https://www.bloglovin.com/blogs/makeerinover-13946503" target="_blank">Follow</a><script>(function(d, s, id) {var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];if (d.getElementById(id)) return;js = d.createElement(s);js.id = id;js.src = "https://www.bloglovin.com/widget/js/loader.js?v=1";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);}(document, "script", "bloglovin-sdk"))</script> </i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><i> *PR Sample & Links May Be Affiliated - <a href="https://www.makeerinover.co.uk/p/disclaimer.html">Disclaimer</a> </i></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: x-small;"><b> COMMENTS: I LOVE receiving comments, and I read every single one.

I think I seen these on TikTok originally - but I'm so glad I decided to give them a chance after being stuck in a reading rut for such a long time. Both the Stopover & The Takeover feature the Miles bothers, they both have a decent storyline alongside some pretty incredible smex/filth scenes. They will have you laughing, crying and a little bit hot under the collar. These are a fantastic entryway into smutty books - loved every word of them. </div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">The Hunted Series - Ivy Smoak</span></b></div><div><b>(Temptation, Addiction, Eruption & Devotion)</b></div><div>Again, a good entry point for smutty books - and I loved this series. All follow Penny and her Professor, James Hunter. Started off as forbidden smut, but quickly had you by the feels too. These don't take much focus to read, and I loved the story progression. I was also completely into James too.</div><div><br /></div><div><b><span style="font-size: medium;">Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent </span></b></div>
<div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b>(Deviant King, Steel Princess, Twisted Kingdom, Black Knight, Vicious Prince and Ruthless Empire)</b></div></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This series is not for the faint of heart, and definitely shouldn't be read as an entry point into smutty books - but still, it had me hooked. These are classed as a bully romance, so the boys are NOT nice. Neither are the girls in honesty. This series covers some dark topics too - definitely dark and twisty. But worthwhile reading if you are looking for something a bit different. The first three books cover Aiden and Elsa, the last three are their friendship circle. Personally I loved Cole - I definitely shouldn't! </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Have you read any of these yet?

I remember discussing makeup and days out - long have these days passed - and now I sit at home in my comfies considering if I will ever fit back into my jeans. *YAY* So here are the things I have actually enjoyed this month - they may have a theme. (There will be a post up shortly about my reading in January!) </div><span><a name='more'></a></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3tekbx0"><span style="font-size: large;">1. Kindle Paperwhite</span></a> </b>£119.99</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Without a doubt the best purchase of 2021 so far. Sure it was pricy, especially as I have never used my original kindle (I hated it). But this one has paid itself off already. You also get 3 months free of Kindle Unlimited when you buy it! It's sleek, easy to use and the backlight makes reading a DREAM. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3cxX2jc" target="_blank">2. Popsocket</a></b> </span>(On My Kindle) £6.99</div><div style="text-align: justify;">GAME - CHANGER. I haven't dropped my kindle on my face since I put it on, and it makes reading in bed one handed SO much easier. Honestly - do it. Best thing. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/kindle-dbs/hz/signup?tag=erinrussell-21" rel="" target="_blank"><b>3. Kindle Unlimited (KU)</b></a></span> FREE TRIAL MONTH then £7.99 a month </div><div style="text-align: justify;">It's like a library - only instantly accessed. There are THOUSANDS of books on KU, you can download up to 10 at a time, and access on your kindle, phone, iPad etc. £7.99 and you can read as many as you can. Needless to say for me this month - I have gotten my moneys worth! </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audible-Membership/dp/B00OPA2XFG?actionCode=AMN30DFT1Bk06604291990WX&tag=erinrussell-21 " target="_blank">4. Audible </a> </b></span>FREE TRIAL MONTH then £7.99 a month</div><div style="text-align: justify;">I've loved audible for a while now, but I've really gotten back into reading this month - and Audible is perfect for when you are driving or busy around the house. Headphones in - and you can escape to another world. (You can also get books for £2-£4 if you download the book on KU first (Top Tip!) </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #ffd966; font-size: large;"><b>5. Takeaways </b></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Coffee, Chinese, Indian, Pizza, hello FOOD. It seems to be the only treat left - a takeaway in front of the TV, or with a good book. I've had far too many this month, but maybe I'll be better next month? Maybe not. </div>

I feel the stress of home schooling, uni at home and boredom creeping in like a plague. If you had told me back in June I would be back in lockdown by January I think I would have cried - a lot. But alas, this is our reality now. The harsh reality of Covid-19. </div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I'm definitely of the belief that social distancing, hand hygiene and "staying safe" is most definitely the way to protect our NHS, <i>well alongside vaccinating</i>. I am in no way saying I will be breaking rules or thinking it's unnecessary - I just want to moan about it all, mmmkay? I just would quite like for all of this to end now, move on, fuck off, I want to keep my plans. </div><div><br /></div><div>So here are my (probably unrealistic) plans for 2021... </div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: medium; font-weight: bold;">STEP 1: </span><i>Finding Some Motivation </i></div><div>Well I need to do this to do the rest. So if anyone has any to mail me that would be pretty fantastic right about now, cause mine seems to have gotten lost around August'2020. Never to be seen again. </div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>STEP 2:</b></span> <i>Be Happy With Myself </i></div><div>This would usually be "loose weight", but TBH this year has killed any hope of that so far, I barely have the motivation to leave the house never mind put the crisps down. So instead, I plan on working on my mental health to be more accepting of who I am, managing my own health and build up my confidence again. </div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>STEP 3:</b></span> <i>Holiday</i></div><div>Like everyone else I dream of lying next to a pool in 30+ degree heat with a book and cocktails. The closer I get to July (and my booked holiday), the further this becomes from being a possibility. Honestly I'm thinking about it now and I'm 95% sure we wont get to go - cause no one wants people from the UK. *cries* </div><div><br /></div><div><span style="font-size: medium;"><b>STEP 4:</b></span> <i>See Friends & Family</i></div><div>I never realised up until 2020 how much I took "Oh I'm just going out to see..." for granted. I miss meeting my Mum and family in a different area to walk around the shops. I miss driving 60 miles to see my friends for drinks in a club and paying £8 for a glass of wine in a crowded bar. I miss my people. Like everyone does I'm sure, I won't ever take that time for granted again - I miss them. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>THE MAIN EVENT</b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>Qualify & Get a Job as a Midwife</i></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">*gulp*</div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">2021 has been "our year" since 2018 when we started. Never did we imagine how the NHS and the UK would change in this time frame. Nursing/Midwifery degrees are already known to be one of the hardest degrees you can do - but adding Covid-19 into the mix... it's been interesting. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">So 2021 now involves online teaching, essays, 17 weeks of placement, applying for jobs and hopefully becoming a newly qualified midwife with a job that I love. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Oh and hopefully, hopefully getting to graduate in person, with the robe and all that jazz. </div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">________________________________________</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div>So there is my hopes for 2021, I doubt they'll all happen, or what they will look like when they do, but a girl can dream, right? </div><div style="text-align: center;"><i><br /></i></div><div style="text-align: center;"><i>What were your plans for 2021?

This year however, it just didn't seem fitting... this year I've barely paid myself any attention in regards to hair, makeup, clothing etc. This year I feel like all I have done work and sit at home - both of which don't require a full face of makeup. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">So I thought I would run through my savours of 2020, the bits I simply couldn't live without... </div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Lounge Wear </b></i></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This year I have spent far too much time either in uniform, or leggings and tshirts. Tights and Jeans? No. Since the months have gotten colder, I've added jumpers into the lineup, but realistically not much has changed. Unless it's comfortable - I'm not wearing it. The topic of stretchy comfy clothes fits beautifully with the weight gain too. The lack of excersise and boredom has led to me gaining more weight than I feel comfortable with. Hell, I didn't feel comfortable at the start of this year - nevermind now. But ya'know what? This year has been though, and it has come down to whatever gets you through. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><div><i><b>The Tassimo Coffee Machine </b></i></div><div>Back in January I massively overspent on a new coffee machine, I shouldn't have been able to justify the spend - but I did it regardless. By April I was SO thankful I made the splurge. Hello latte's at home. Needless to say with coffee shop closures - this has been a god send. (Especially when you add Bailey's into it). Without a doubt the best money I spent in 2020. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Audible and Books</b></i></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I've gone from reading 1-2 books a year - and missing books SO much (I used to read constantly as a teenager) - to now finishing over 50 books this year. I've missed them so much, and I don't think I ever would have started again if this year hadn't been the way it has been. I've submerged myself into new worlds and romantic adventures - I'm hoping this will be one hobby I keep up with. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Sims 4, Animal Crossing & Fenyx Rising </b></i></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Video games have been another must have this year. It has been so nice to escape to beautiful worlds, a little bit of escapism - especially with us not being able to go on holiday. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><i>Plants </i></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">When you can't go out, bring the out in - right? Maybe. My house now resembles a jungle. I've spent far too much time fussing over my plants this year, but they have made me super happy. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><i>Placement Turned into Work</i> </b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The original plan for 2020 was to spend 22 weeks on placement and 23 weeks of theory at university, with 7 weeks of annual leave. Instead, we had 33 weeks on placement, 14 weeks of theory and all the same university assessments due. So we had essays to do on top of placements. Needless to say it was knackering - and I'm definitely a little burnt out. However, there have been some benefits to additional placements - we have had some incredible experiences, caring for women throughout a pandemic has been an honour. I also have been paid for my placement over summer, allowing me to become debt free and set money aside for a rainy day. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><i><b>Working Removes Social Isolation</b></i></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Work also played a big role in saving my mental health. Being home alone is HARD. Typically I meet my social needs by coffee dates and spending time with friends - unfortunately far too much of this year has been socially isolating - therefore it's nice to see friends at work, getting to chat and catch up has been a saviour. I've found myself wanting to just to chat to women, chat to colleagues, it's made working all year a pleasure. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><i>Summer, Eat Out Help Out</i></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I understand the negatives this scheme brought to the UK, but in all honesty August was my favourite month. I got to see people, we went on a staycation, we had meals with friends, alcohol with food and I felt this helped my Mental Health SO much. I've really struggled this year, and getting that month to just see family and friends was a complete blessing. I hope life will be looking like this again soon - I miss it. </div>

To the point I've read them all in just over a month. So I thought I would give you the low down on which ones should be at the top of your reading list. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">Paige Toon's books are all romance novels, so if you don't like them these probably won't be your cup of tea, but if you are in the mood for a romance that will have you hooked from the first few pages these are the ones for you! </div><span></span><span><a name='more'></a></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">My absolute favourite part of her books is that they are all connected somehow, the characters reappear - they live in the same world, and will cross paths.

This one had me crying, had me feeling all the feels, and I completely fell in love with her story. This one had me hooked from a few chapters in, and I just loved their story. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/3lZJxdu" target="_blank">Johnny Be Good</a> AND <a href="https://amzn.to/2HbRqNY" target="_blank">Baby Be Mine</a> </b></span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i>Brief: Meg moves to LA to be a PA for rockstar Johnny Jefferson.

I LOVED Johnny & Meg. This book made me realise how messed up I am in terms of falling for the wrong guy - but at least I am not alone here, who doesn't love a rockstar bad boy *sigh*. I stupidly read Baby Be Mine first without realising Johnny Be Good existed, I then re-read Baby Be Mine (cause it really was that good). Overall, obsessed. These were the books that had me hooked on Paige Toon's books - and I definitely want me a Johnny Jefferson. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><b><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://amzn.to/3kgF71G" target="_blank">One Perfect Summer </a>AND <a href="https://amzn.to/3dH8KXd" target="_blank">One Perfect Christmas </a></span></b><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i>Brief: Joe and Alice had a holiday romance as late teens, fell head over heels in love - then were seperated.

I LOVED this book, it broke me in a way none of the others has. Joe was utter perfection - especially after meeting him with Meg in "Baby Be Mine". I HATED Lukas, really, really hated him, but that wasn't the biggest issue with this book.... the ending just isn't enough - I was majorly butt-hurt. I huffed, I complained... but it turns out since finishing, Paige Toon admitted it was lacking - so she finished it off for her readers in One Perfect Christmas. The extra chapter just finished the story for me, and since then it has stuck with me, and I can't deny my love for it. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcPr_cbKuX_TCfrO9d6QABW3WfzYH2-4sC9dPumTkbUCv04Xn95121Ixigm2Qdc1H9QwOkV2BGQS2bK1Qk_RAuwtp3597XOqdIroVSdKPSYBd0L8L0R7rjbBDb3CA5pgyL5iXMkTc_Wc0/s2048/61C3A610-C239-4D74-B6E3-82A2065F14A2.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" height="908" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcPr_cbKuX_TCfrO9d6QABW3WfzYH2-4sC9dPumTkbUCv04Xn95121Ixigm2Qdc1H9QwOkV2BGQS2bK1Qk_RAuwtp3597XOqdIroVSdKPSYBd0L8L0R7rjbBDb3CA5pgyL5iXMkTc_Wc0/w681-h908/61C3A610-C239-4D74-B6E3-82A2065F14A2.jpeg" width="681" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Definitely Worth A Read</b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><b><a href="https://amzn.to/2T5ho8z" target="_blank">Pictures of Lily</a> </b></span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span><span style="text-align: left;">★</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i>Brief: Lily meets Ben at age 16, but Ben is older, engaged - and definitely off limits.

The love that shouldn't be. At first, I really wasn't loving the direction this was going in, but I soon fell in love with Lily as an adult rather than a teen. The setting is complete perfection, the Koalas especially. This book had me desperate to visit Australia, especially to find a Ben of my own. Pssst, Lily & Ben also have a short story in "One Perfect Christmas" where they meet Alice & Jo - which was the icing on the cake.

They have launched a new mascara boasting volumising and lengthening properties. They very kindly sent me it to try, and I was so excited to give it a go! They describe it as: </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><span><a name='more'></a></span><i><br /></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><i>"An intensely volumising mascara with an asymmetrical brush that lengthens, lifts, and curls lashes for a dramatic, wide-eyed effect. This ultra-pigmented, flake-resistant mascara creates a look of up to 23.6 times more volume and up to 40% more length for bold lashes. The asymmetrical brush was designed to load every eyelash for extreme volume and definition. The tip defines and separates even the tiniest of individual lashes, while the curved side adds lift at the lash root. The intensely black long-wear formula lasts up to 20 hours; it’s smudge-proof and sweatproof."</i></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnXSzlUlL329L-OSmhkkUcmUv4InRWyFrT7FLQ5pt_fp30G2bXu5WPFTCsbXe50koH1O6dmF18k3vTNoqJQJ5MnC5dqKR819bXjVu9cHrcwfieQiBctrMGzMbDT9l066YgMRcwdv-4Y8Y/s2048/725F6CB4-BE42-4D4A-A82D-585F94D56703.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="613" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnXSzlUlL329L-OSmhkkUcmUv4InRWyFrT7FLQ5pt_fp30G2bXu5WPFTCsbXe50koH1O6dmF18k3vTNoqJQJ5MnC5dqKR819bXjVu9cHrcwfieQiBctrMGzMbDT9l066YgMRcwdv-4Y8Y/w817-h613/725F6CB4-BE42-4D4A-A82D-585F94D56703.jpeg" width="817" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">As an early 00's chick, this mascara screamed high school to me. I remember applying layers after layers to build up that desired clumpy look - and to me, this is such a throwback look. One I'm shocked to see making a reappearance. This look isn't one for me - simply because I've spent far too long attempting to try and separate while lengthening. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The formula for me was wetter than the usual, but definitely dries quickly and holds a curl. The wand was the most problematic, I found myself being clumsy, I just couldn't get the look I wanted from it, I made a mess and I didn't enjoy using it. I couldn't seem to get enough product off the wand, I even wiped it down and tried again - and I just couldn't make it work for me. For me, I don't want a mascara to be difficult to use and hard to apply, I want it to be quick and easy. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Overall, it's a miss from me. But if you love a fuller look - this is the one for you! Hey, I might just be useless at using it! I typically love Urban Decay, but I can't love everything - and this just proves it. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Pssst, I still love their <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+5Q_XlJu_spTKAFlHRJ77MA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Perversion Mascara</a></b> £21.00.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzwOhf8IPCCCNClZwjoHE6y6jJL9dm2HGaWxzZ1MBYJbVrZ1tD2wfFLTjEl8d1tHvjAF0GlgvHpBZXgY49oWcYfnQOy_r4LAxafhDhaF9r4hQY2t1kwYwVa3qeWbt5OxRLVj5_sx9abEA/s2048/620B6CED-F20D-477B-8D8E-E588765E391E.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="586" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzwOhf8IPCCCNClZwjoHE6y6jJL9dm2HGaWxzZ1MBYJbVrZ1tD2wfFLTjEl8d1tHvjAF0GlgvHpBZXgY49oWcYfnQOy_r4LAxafhDhaF9r4hQY2t1kwYwVa3qeWbt5OxRLVj5_sx9abEA/w781-h586/620B6CED-F20D-477B-8D8E-E588765E391E.jpeg" width="781" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div><i>*Please ignore my crap skin texture and my lockdown, can't be bothered eyebrows that desperately need dealt with.

Perfect for that inner glow look. </div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I also knew the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+yEjlQ4QsgnfCmfvDkrrIXg" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Legendary Lashes Mascara</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">(£25.00)</span> would be included within the box too - another classic which you cannot go wrong with. With the rate you should change mascara, I always find having new ones to reach for is never a bad thing. </div><div><br /></div><div><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="938" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgD-GBOHBC2cu1ir80W8Uaozi7hX7o3mipM8QLzDVQAOf7ws8P9PZVN-DKh4VHj28eLOCg4V3Prjczf0KXkwX41ImtmQQRwBvX5z54BhCriyhkqKqCXdaQDTdrWA7OAjAgLI4nbIu7KSAk/w1250-h938/EF7323A3-7E9E-44C8-ACBD-DF818E8B1571.jpeg" width="1250" /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The one product I was really hoping for within the box is the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+bqjBmCLIu_auR4S5LpiOFw" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Filmstar Bronze and Glow Contour Palette</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">(£49.00)</span>. I was VERY happy to see this one, I've been wanting this for a long time - but stupidly have never just picked it up. Really excited to properly try this out and see what I make of it :) </div><div><br /></div><div><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiDm1MJGNSm8VA5JwYR36nOzIbwCWql1ryTB5VWWhq3monshFoK2ToQxJ97H7N4u4XtUaiVCCbde3nLVlNiQeiritcNMcxMehAlw9f1cORJ4efh9QG22arpfvDokj5a5hEw1Tfx5H8nlcA/w1000-h750/FBE073ED-7BC5-49AA-B836-F21A51C75543.jpeg" width="1000" /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">I was also absolutely thrilled to see the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+ltYfrL8PtSZNe_dvR4iXjA" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Cheek to Chic Blush</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">(£30.00) </span>in Ecstasy - the perfect peachy shade and honestly, I doubt I could have chosen a better shade myself. I have wanted a nipple blush since they launched - so it's lovely to finally get my hands on one. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another squeal while opening the box was the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+vYmN3ABcvc2bnzjB_jCXog" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Beauty Glow Kit</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">(£30.00)</span> which includes the Hollywood Beauty Light Wand in Spotlight. I love a soft liquid/cream highlighter and this is the definition of this, I cannot wait to try this on minimal makeup days. </div><div><br /><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="938" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi0NVKK_on-CAld9n5qMzb9pBNABPW-HkY7buvxEgDXHa3pZzTKmJPww0f3zr1m2aevmtrla-SOLfOkDb7H1V6eP8mleMz5dHE3mYphyphenhyphen2D1p7jrLLnjMr_Ve_PBO9LZRvn7uz5lPk06GPI/w1250-h938/62B6DC41-DF6D-489C-85FA-C1153D3A27C1.jpeg" width="1250" /></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+c-SUnacQyn0dS0T9a37qHA" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Eyes to Mesmerise</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">(£22.00)</span> in "Rose Gold" is the perfect everyday shade - super easy to blend and apply. I can see myself using this all the time. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+A5Az-qLWYBPbzVzPMIM_mg" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">(£19.00)</span> in "Amber Haze" is less of an everyday shade, but definitely easy to wear, blend and pull off for a more smokey look. I love a bronze shade, and this is the perfect one. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Unfortunately, the lip colours are not something I would have picked out - but on an upside, they are not ones I already own. The <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+3XOJkBzJB3QT_f0nneC0Lw" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Lips </a></b><span style="font-size: small;">(£25.00)</span> in "Screen Siren" is a perfect red. I love a liquid red too - so I'm definitely up for trying out this formula, although I'm not entirely sure it will be the one for me. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The lipstick is <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+rdk_feG_zwe9kle6cylMuA" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Hot Lips 2 </a></b><span style="font-size: small;">(£28.00)</span> in "Angel Alessandra". I usually go for the Matte CT lipsticks (which are a personal favourite) - so I'm interested to try this one, although I'm not sure on the colour with my pale AF skintone... </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbJ1lMPXjiBuy3Nwq49eH1SH6mzn63Leajcep5j9XK3ATrCKa9aJb6IuiZFa88X3uZqGJlW4kcQkdIlazKckKD-q9B0vo5C19VbwKPt9FdKkmyMHLLxgcvC8HW2HJhV5n0wn-5tXLnwYM/w1000-h750/06A64201-E794-404F-9304-5A4141335C6C.jpeg" style="text-align: start;" width="1000" /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Charlotte Tilbury also had a special offer where you would receive a full-size <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+LKmd56AS16zmD5MXr5A_aw" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Diamonds </a></b><span style="font-size: small;">(£25.00)</span> with a purchase.

It has yet to be pushed off the top spot for me, so as much as this is a gentle, lovely tonic to use - I still prefer the OG Glow Tonic... (Sorry Pixi). </div>
</div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on">The <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+oP2WQQk3Rcrk43sln_U1qg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pixi Retinol Jasmine Cleanser</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">£18.00</span> has been in daily use now for quite some time (It's almost finished!). I've loved using this in the morning before my full skincare routine - it's a really good morning cleanser, but in all honesty definitely not strong enough to see any skin impact other than clean skin... which is upsetting. </div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on">Then there is the <a href="https://rstyle.me/+uV3hbI1D3sUapmnb7GcTzw" rel="nofollow" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">Pixi Retinol Jasmine Lotion</a><b> </b><span style="font-size: small;">£24.00</span>.. which to be completely honest is lost amongst Pixi's other Lotions. I just don't find myself reaching for it, despite putting it within my daily basket, I just end up wanting to use something else. The product is nice, lightweight, easy to wear and non-greasy, but I find myself reaching for products with added benefits such as glow, SPF, etc instead. </div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="916" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8t0VX_S_bhvW0edKuLten6h0LrR342a5vXcCBg9kgibs6ks1eQdN8LSoR73t-enidQQe69VXRoMTg9-OuoVLHkBxYQw6GH-L6m_ie696O8F8cqnOOPaW64dc7yY6_jECoZ4pjy-NMiZE/w1220-h916/C90B2695-9043-4C9C-9BCB-27F114FA76F3.jpeg" style="text-align: start;" width="1220" /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: center;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on"><span style="text-align: center;">The <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+pKHbRw16E6NUEbwByt4ijQ" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pixi Overnight Retinol Oil</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">£26.00</span> is a lovely product - but simply not strong enough for me. I find if I am looking to use a retinol oil I need something stronger than this - so in all honesty, I've not used this much. The formula is heavy, hard to blend - and simply not strong enough, which is frustrating. </span></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on">The <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+u-YtvfvQyrC1cg8CL8ZQjg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pixi Jasmine Oil Blend</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">£26.00</span> is a beautiful addition to their oil family. Easy to blend, brightening and moisturising. But again, I just don't find myself reaching for this one. I've passed this onto my Mum, who completely adores it. </div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: justify;" trbidi="on"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRGta3qBovdyaYjRRkp4rqy_jrl0-AN_bAN3dEebghAOoUu_uYcGFtpddyIfTdR2L-6r5pTA8Bozhz65QIS5CqwxUz29T41SlU88hi7fdGQwVdNjZpDo8dH4fPFExB7I7fbWovk1gK1Rc/s1600/017EF8CC-8A31-45B4-B026-67FF20031AE8.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1200" data-original-width="1600" height="916" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjRGta3qBovdyaYjRRkp4rqy_jrl0-AN_bAN3dEebghAOoUu_uYcGFtpddyIfTdR2L-6r5pTA8Bozhz65QIS5CqwxUz29T41SlU88hi7fdGQwVdNjZpDo8dH4fPFExB7I7fbWovk1gK1Rc/w1220-h916/017EF8CC-8A31-45B4-B026-67FF20031AE8.jpeg" width="1220" /></a></div><div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><br />
Alas, it isn't all bad. I'm in love with the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+vuQN16wQ9epW1B7VKxNdGA" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pixi Retinol Eye Cream</a></b> <span style="font-size: small;">£22.00</span>. I find myself using this nightly as part of my skincare routine, and I love the formula to blend in and help with my exhausted eye-bags! Definitely, one I will happily pick up again, and fantastic for the price tag too.

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><i>The Best of the Best... </i></b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've praised both - but which is better? Which one should you go for? The Answer in a blog post!</div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been hyping the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+ercBzUbCCEHh9-a1DoPnZQ" target="_blank">Clinique Even Better Refresh Foundation</a></b> for quite some time now, it really is incredible. I'm onto my second tube now, and I couldn't be happier with it. The coverage is medium to full, it lasts all day long and it doesn't melt off my face over the day. You can view my <b><a href="https://www.makeerinover.co.uk/2019/05/clinique-even-better-refresh-foundation.html" target="_blank">Full Review Here.</a> </b>So, Needless to say, I was pretty sure it couldn't be beaten... </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then I met the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+hhMszlf-rEs3ZKr1DEBLxA" target="_blank">OG Clinique Even Better</a></b>. I've been craving a more simple look recently - reaching for more simplistic makeup and a light base... so this seemed the perfect switch. You can view my <a href="https://www.makeerinover.co.uk/2020/04/clinique-even-better-foundation-review.html" style="font-weight: bold;" target="_blank">Full Review Here. </a> It is far lighter coverage than the Refresh, definitely more of a daily wear - and perfect for work. It lasts all day long, doesn't budge from my oily nose either - win-win. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
So, what about comparing them both? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I've been using both alongside each other for a few months now, and I honestly can say I love them both - and will recommend them both. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I reach for the Even Better on lighter makeup days, on days where I just want a quick face, no fuss. I find myself wearing this for work too. Although it is lighter coverage, it doesn't move throughout the day on my oily skin (something I find can be problematic on a lighter coverage foundation). I love the bright natural finish of this, and I love how lightweight it is too... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The Even Better Refresh is truly incredible. Full coverage, long-lasting, lightweight. The ultimate combo - oily skin full coverage foundation. But I do find if you don't want to do the full face with contour etc, it can be a bit too much. I will forever reach for this as my number one when I'm doing my makeup properly though... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Both foundations have the same shade range, and both contain 30ml. The Even Better is £3.00 cheaper. Overall pretty even from Clinique. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I love both, and use both. I need both - therefore I cannot say either is better, but I will say I would be happy with only these two in my stash for a foundation. I find myself reaching for them all the time (for different reasons) - and cannot see anything I dislike about these two - maybe they are just made to be a power duo? Who knows - but I love them both! </div>

The main purpose of placing the order was to get myself a new waterproof mascara (to wear at work!). I already love the original, so getting the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+_s51GWFiwFC_Ktqo9OaEjA" target="_blank">Too Faced Better Than Sex Waterproof Mascara</a></b> £22.00 seemed like a logical purchase. Then, due to the offer of spending £40 on Too Faced and getting a free <b><span style="color: #f1c232;">Too Faced Better Than Sex Peach Mascara</span></b>, - to me it just made sense to treat myself further and get a replacement of the correct shade in the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+4mdVIqa8SF73uoUWZrExcQ" target="_blank">Too Faced Peach Perfect Comfort Matte Foundation</a></b> £27.00 (my correct shade is swan - you can see my incorrect purchase post here). I then also picked up the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+7BNYShOPTqJG04nZ2AsO-Q" target="_blank">Too Faced Peach Perfect Matte Instant Coverage Concealer</a></b> £18.50 (in whipped cream).</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I also finally purchased the <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+F7V7qdncdoYRrUBxzxBepA" target="_blank">Aesop Parsley Seed Mask</a></b> £33.00... which I have been meaning to get for a fairly long time! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Look Fantastic also had a 20% offer on, which gave me 20% off along with the free mascara. YAY! </div>

Beauty Bay didn't have an offer on, but this has been on my wishlist from the minute I saw it. The <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+3VWHEG4tQ86pxU0YMx95NA" target="_blank">Viseart Spritz Edit Eyeshadow Palette</a></b> £30.00 is the summery palette dream.

I've been loving using this foundation this month - simply because of the nicer weather - and the increase of spots on my face thanks to the masks at work. So it's been an all-round winner in my books. This one is nearly finished too - I might just need to repurchase it. </div>

Currently on offer as a newer version is out - but I'm loving it. I have an apple watch - but find it too extra, I don't like the fitness tracker on it for just counting steps, and I don't like how often it needs to be charged or how big it is. So - I've been loving going back to Fitbit - simplistic yet perfect, and I can keep it in my pocket at work to count steps. I also love the sleep tracker and the App. Really easy to use and I'm loving being back in the Fitbit fam. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I cannot complete this post without saying how incredibly heartbroken I was to see what had happened in America to George Floyd. It has really highlighted the ingrained racism in our culture towards BAME people and the privilege those with white skin are born into. I was on a string of nightshifts when social media was trending Black Lives Matter - and since then I have been educating myself around white privilege and how I can be better, and teach my son to be better. So I will be silent no more. If you do not agree and support BLM, please remove yourself from my following. </div>

This has been a morning staple for me now for over a month - and I have been loving it! I know shower cleansing isn't exactly the best, but for me, it works. I've used this every morning in the shower since it arrived. Being a clay cleanser - I assumed it wouldn't lather well, but I was pleasantly surprised. The formula is lightweight, fresh and easy to use - I find it really helps to leave my skin feeling clean without any residue. I typically have an issue with oil production - so I've found it really helps to keep my skin looking it's best without drying it out. </div>

This grows like a WEED. I've had mine for just over a year, and its doubled in size and produced 20+ Babies which I have propagated and given to family and friends. It's been in pretty much every room in my house now, and just grows and grows and grows. The picture is of a pup removed from the mother plant less than a week ago, it's already growing roots to be planted. SO easy to care for - and SO SATISFYING to watch grow. This is one you won't regret getting - and if my mum and friends can keep this alive, anyone can! Plus, it looks adorable, really does make the room that little bit more interesting. Why get boring plants when you can have cute ones like this?<br />

This one is worth the hype without a doubt. It can get BIG, so don't get this unless you are willing to have a floor plant which is keen for world domination - although a good moss pole will keep this growing up and happy. The leaves once mature will split as in the photo - and wow are they pretty! Right now mine is giving me a new leaf a month - which is a pretty incredible growth rate. I LOVE watching it shoot out new leaves. </div>

It also comes in a variegated form - which can be MUCH rarer. I have a juvenile one - which I'm hoping will product split leaves this summer sometime, meet the <b>Monstera Thai Constellation.</b><br />

I LOVE this plant, its beautiful! Such an eye-catcher, and so pretty in the pink pot I've chosen for it. This plant is slightly on the rarer side, but definitely worth looking for. It's super easy to care for - and will fill your room with joy as it grows. What's not to love about these leaves? Even cuter in real life, and also super easy to propagate if you want to make more for friends :)</div>

Keep this in a sunny, warm spot (and make sure the top also is getting light), and let it dry out between watering - and it will LOVE you. This one has probably 4x in size since this time last year - at least! It just grows and grows and grows. I plan on getting this one a hanger to hang up this year and let it grow and grow. Worth the effort without a doubt...</div>

Calatheas are NEEDY. They are Gateway plants into getting humidifiers - because without one you are gonna get crispy leaves and dead plants. Calatheas are tricksters though - you can pick them up in supermarkets - they are everywhere! And then they trick you with their beauty into thinking they will be okay in your home. DON'T BE FOOLED. These are easy to kill - but if you are up for a challenge go for it! Cause they sure are pretty. </div>

Mine is a crispy dried up mess at the moment, but thanks to my new humidifier I am really hoping it stops having hissy fits over the air. It's looking sparse at the moment but is pushing out new leaves. This has been the source of anxiety for the past year. DO NOT RECOMMEND FOR BEGINNERS. Even though its pretty. </div>

<b><i>Pixi sure does spoil us! </i></b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
First up, the packaging this came in was just incredible - milk carton style, so cute. Perfect for the white sleek packaging of the bottles too, just a shame I've been using this all for months so it isn't looking this cute anymore! </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Pixi Cleansers are definitely one of my favourites for in the morning. I love how quick and easy they are to use, and I love the fresh scent. I've been through quite a few now so it's nice to try a new one. Definitely a more gentle approach, so this one would be perfect for sensitive skin. I've almost finished this one now - and although I have enjoyed it, I have prefered their other formulas. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This one isn't "the one" for me. I like an oil or balm makeup remover - so I just don't find myself reaching for this at all. The formula is bi-phase and can remove light makeup well - without drying out the skin, but I simply prefer alternatives. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><a href="https://pixibeauty.co.uk/collections/hydrating-milky-collection/products/hydrating-milky-peel?variant=13256571453507" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">Pixi Hydrating Milky Peel*</a></b></span> £24.00</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been using peels and masks like mad since lockdown and have enjoyed this one when my skin is looking it's best - just to help keep on top of it. Really gentle and maintains moisture - yet removes dead cells as expected. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Again, I enjoyed this - but not as much as their classic Glow Tonic. It's a gentle, hydrating approach - but I love my glow tonic! Find myself reaching for my trusty bottle instead of this. So passed this onto my friend (who has dry skin). </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now I love a good hydrating serum for when my skin is needing it - and I've loved using this one. This has been fantastic for days in the house, adds moisture yet absorbs quickly. It also has Aloe Vera in it which is super soothing. I find myself reaching for this a lot. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The minute I see "Face and Body" on packaging the only place I'm using it is on my body. So this hasn't been on my face. It's a nice body moisturiser though - pricey for that, so not something I would be running out to repurchase (especially as I go through them quicker). But overall a good body moisturiser :)</div>

Overall, definitely not my favourite Pixi launch or collection - but I can see this being loved by someone who has sensitive and/or dry skin. I definitely prefer their Glow range so far, but it's lovely to see Pixi expanding and creating something for everyone.<br />

I finally managed to clear my lockdown spots and I'm giving this all the credit. My skin loves Niacinamide in skincare, so this is right up my street. I've been using this every night - and haven't had a breakout since, so I'm hoping this will keep them at bay. </div>

<b><i>The Even Better Range from Clinique has to be a favourite. </i></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I must say when my local Clinique counter told me the original Even Better is just as good as the Even Better Refresh - I doubted them. The Refresh is now my go-to full coverage, stay all day foundation... but this one is incredible - just in a different way. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The Clinique Even Better foundation comes in a whopping 46 shades and a range of undertones to suit pretty much everyone. My shade works out to be pale AF, Flax - WN01 part of their "very fair" colour group. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I must admit, I'm seriously impressed. I don't like wearing makeup on placement - my face seems to fall down my chin by lunchtime - but this is one which actually knows how to stay put. The coverage is far lighter than the Refresh - but in a good way. This is perfect for those minimal days, which seem to be all the time right now. I tend to apply this in the car, running late as always. It is quick and easy to apply and blends beautifully. It covers all my imperfections perfectly - yet lets my freckles and blushed cheeks shine though.. the perfect mix for those lighter makeup days. Or if like me, you are beginning to prefer a lighter makeup look. </div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
This has quickly become a firm favourite in my stash - and one I reach for all the time. The perfect mix of longlasting yet lightweight - something I wasn't too hopeful to find with my combination/oily skin. I would very highly recommend this if you are on the lookout for a new foundation. I love it!

<b><i>My favourite skincare tool...</i></b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Now, I already love these. I have been talking about them on my blog for almost two years now - and for good reason too - they are incredible. My favourite up until this point has been the antibacterial ones - but with the launch of their Bamboo SuperNatural option, I was desperate to try them out. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For both, the shape and size are perfect for use. They are rectangular, long enough for two hands to use on your face at once - it's hard to explain, but trust me when I say this - they work beautifully. They are also super easy to wash and clean - I simply pop them into the wash after use. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although I really wouldn't ever use or be able to recommend using them with only water (like they claim) - I love using them with a cleanser. It's not that I doubt the claim, I just feel a cleanser alongside is the ideal situation. It will have your makeup off in no time. They just make removing your makeup a pleasure, they feel soft, hold warmth, and work perfectly. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My feelings are: when you are using an expensive, good quality cleanser to care for your face - why would you then opt for a face cloth which can potentially damage your skin? Opt for something high quality, soft and ultimately - beneficial to your skincare routine - which these are. A worthwhile investment. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've already recommended these countless times, and I doubt I will be stopping anytime soon. They really are the best cloth available (in my opinion).</div>

Both will have your environmental impact reduced due too - and will forever be better than makeup wipes (ICK!). </div>

<b><i>This would typically be a monthly favourites post... </i></b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I would usually post about all my favourite things throughout the month of March, but let's face it - this month was pretty crap. There is a global pandemic, people are dying, people are sick, we are all stuck inside our houses self-isolating and we can't get pasta. IT SUCKS - on every level. It feels so surreal to even have changed so much in a month. It's terrifying. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This month we also lost my Grandad. Nothing to do with Corona - he had Acute Ischaemic Bowel, with Sepsis. It was very quick, very sudden - and utterly heartbreaking. I lost one of my favourite people, and I miss him beyond words. We did get to spend time with him before he died - which I will forever be grateful for. But still... shit. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
2020 is working out to be a pile of crap, and it doesn't seem to be improving anytime soon either. So I thought I should share with you the few things that have brought me some level of joy - despite the turd pile we are currently living in. </div>

First up, when I spent far too much money on a coffee machine I knew I would get my money back eventually - but never did I believe I would be entirely dependant on it for a nice caffeine fix. THANK GOODNESS FOR NESPRESSO. It's £3.30 for 10 pods, I use my own milk (Whatever milk you want) and I can add syrups etc. Every time I use it; I praise the coffee gods, and my fantastic impulse buying at the start of the year - because this has (without a doubt) been the best purchase of 2020. Cheers to LauraLou for her mad Instagram influencing SKILLS. </div>

I've also been adding in Bailey's with every chance I have had. Probably a bad thing, but it brings me joy after a long day of doing nothing - and keeps me away from the wine. The new Red Velvet Cupcake is pretty incredible too - turning my coffee foam pink. Maybe i'm doing it to trick myself into thinking it's Christmas again - but either way, I'm happy. </div>

I spent all of March out on placement - playing the anxiety game of will we be kept out on placement or not - will I get sick? Will AJ be off School? ANXIETY. Fml. Ending the month with AJ being off school and kept with his Dad in isolation while I finished my placement block for the last two weeks. So the last week was GRIM. My Grandad had died, my son was gone, my coffee shops were shut. Thank goodness for bread and Nutella availability. Because it pulled me through the last of my 12.5hr shifts and brought a smile to my face every time. Sure it's AJ's. Sure I should be dieting. Sure I have about 4 serving sizes per slice - but not a single f*ck was given, it was incredible. </div>

This photo was taken at the start of March (by the end of march my uniform was bagged). But I will be the first to admit that my Crocs are now a firm saviour. Their ability to be machine washed, sterilised, cleaned and dried super quick is essential with the current situation. My Crocs have never been so loved. I wear the professional ones (no holes on the top); they are comfy, washable and wipeable throughout the shift. One of my best Healthcare purchases. </div>

My love for Sims isn't new. I've played since age 10... back when it was just sims - at it's basic but incredible starting point. From there I upgraded to Sims 2, and fell even more in love with the game - I would spend HOURS playing with my best friend. I was forever chasing the Green alien Sims from Sims 2 onwards. Sims 3 was my favourite gameplay - it had everything I had ever wanted as a game - and I will be the first to admit that Sims 4 is disappointing in some aspects in comparison... but let's be fair - it's still the best game out there (in my opinion anyway)</div>

So, I thought I would take through the highlights of the game to me and the expansion packs you should get your hands on. Considering I play it every chance I get - and it just so happens in quarantine we have a lot of chances! </div>

Without a doubt, the best add on for the game. Not only do we get snow, rain, thunder, sunshine - we also get countless furniture items, clothing... oh and SANTA. Sims have Winterfest (which you can decorate your home for!) They have love day, new year, thanksgiving and various other sim holidays - you can also make your own holidays. Complete with goals to achieve, decorations, social cues and days off work! I enjoy Sims 4 Seasons so much - definitely my favourite pack to add on. </div>

I know a lot of people who love the feature of following your Sim to work - I was never overly fussed by this - although it is a nice feature. The reason why I really wanted this one - and purchased it - was to get the alien abductions and alien sims. LOVE a pregnant man which spawns a green/blue child.

This is a HARD expansion. Getting good grades while keeping a sim alive is difficult. But you jump right up the career ladder - so worth the effort if you are willing to make it... I find myself using this occasionally - but it definitely isn't the best expansion ever. BUT, you do have the ability to add in roommates with this expansion - roommates which you aren't playing - which is SO much fun. </div>

Pets are very needy in gameplay - and will run away if you don't shower them with attention - if you have a toddler about, or at university - the pet can prove to be difficult to keep happy. But saying that - they are very cute so worthy of the effort if you are willing to. I typically have a pet in my household - so I do suppose I use this expansion a fair bit - I just wish there were more pets available like in Sims 3. </div>

I find this expansion the least used and the least fun. I find it far too much effort for what it's worth - even if you can become a YouTuber - I just find it all a bit too much hassle for using it all the time. I hardly use the feature - and probably shouldn't have bothered with it... </div>

So yeah - overall I still LOVE wasting hours of my time playing sims. Without a doubt my favourite way of using my Quarantine time. I highly recommend jumping on the Sims bandwagon - and please do let me know how you get on! Remember, Sims 4 will run on a laptop/desktop and a Mac/MacBook! ... oh and when in money troubles, motherlode ;). </div>

<i><b>SUCH GOOD VALUE (And a good cause too!)</b></i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I love a bargain, and especially a makeup bargain - I especially love a bargain when it's for a good cause too. This is the best of both, and I couldn't be happier with my latest purchase. I've been loving Bobbi Brown recently - they just seem to deliver launch after launch - and really impress me at every opportunity. This is no exception. </div>
<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Their latest collaboration with Elizabeth Scarlett looks to combine incredible products in a cute little makeup bag - ADORABLE! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #999999;">"For 2020 Bobbi Brown have partnered with iconic accessories designer, Elizabeth Scarlett. Famed for her intricate embroidery and beautiful fabrics. Elizabeth’s designs are for women with who want to the beauty of nature into their homes.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The products included are:</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
- <b><a href="https://rstyle.me/+eJU8NkB4fxqQM4bIvS8n0Q" target="_blank">Vitamin-Enriched Face Base, 50ml </a></b>(Full Size!) Usually £44.50</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The <b><a href="https://elizabethscarlett.com/collections/makeup-bags/products/african-palmier-natural-makeup-bag" target="_blank">Elizabeth Scarlett</a></b> range is beautiful! Her makeup bags vary in price from £20-£40. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Bobbi Brown is advising the set is worth a whopping £112!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>The Charity:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #999999;">"Smart Works is a UK Charity that provides high-quality interview clothing, styling advice and interview training to out-of-work women. By harnessing the power of clothes, beauty, and confidence, Smart Works allows a woman to feel her best at a crucial moment in her life: giving her the self-belief and the practical tools required to succeed at the interview stage and transform her life.</span></i></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<i><span style="color: #999999;">For each Bobbi Brown x Elizabeth Scarlett makeup bag sold in the UK the full RRP (less vat) will be donated to smart Works"</span></i></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I personally have loved this set. The bag is beautiful - velvet touch and beautifully embroidered. The pot rouge is a stunning shade - perfect for applying on the go - and a close shade match to my much loved (and discontinued) uber beige... I'm really excited to try the Face Base too - I feel like one of the last bloggers to not have tried it yet - I'm sure I'll be sharing my thoughts on it soon. As for the mascara - well we all know how quickly they are used up! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For me, it was without a doubt worth the price - and I am so happy I picked it up while I had the chance. If this is something you would be interested in - I would recommend getting it soon, I'm sure they will be selling out quickly - especially knowing the full RRP (minus VAT) will be going to Smart Works. </div>

February seemed to take forever, yet seemed to zoom past in the slow blink of a mentally exhausted student. Just like that, a whole month has passed. My exam was over and done - I passed YAY!

I have been loving using this nightly after long shifts. My under eyes are looking pretty worse for wear with the 12.5hr shifts - so it's nice to have something to somewhat prevent and aid my eye bags. Even better when I use it with a Jade Roller!</div>

Finding the right pair of glasses can be a nightmare! I have tried so many different styles and brands - and I can confidently say the Iolla Smith's are my favourite by far. I love the weight, style, fit and price of them most. So I decided to get myself another pair since my Rust Fade have become rather old. I opted for the Walnut Tortoise and I couldn't be happier with them. SO CUTE. </div>

They are SO cute, and I am so happy I got my hands on them. I have worn them constantly since I bought them - well every chance I've had without having my uniform on! </div>

So good I bought it twice. Black and Grey. Zips on the side... I feel like we all have one, but wow are they comfortable and cute. SO perfect for the trip into placement and home again - cosy and comfy. They still have them in stock too, so grab them while you can! </div>

I now own four... on my quest to become WIRE FREEEEE. Seriously they are so comfy and so supportive. I can wear them a full 12.5hr shift and not notice (or pull up a strap) once. They are designed and made in Scotland - they are also ethically made and promote body positivity. The designs are cute AF too. I now own the 2019 Christmas, Mix, White and Dino. Space is on my hit list next! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! (Even got my Mum wearing them!)</div>

I'm so chuffed I managed to keep them alive over winter - and they seem to be reawakening now it's March. They are producing new leaves - and just looking incredible. Highly recommend getting one, they are straightforward to care for and they look beautiful! </div>

I do love a new TV show to watch - and this one is SO good. I've been loving the old school vibes with new production value. VERY impressed - cannot wait for more. </div>
