Ohhh, deals!

Hi :]

As some of you may have read from my post on Sugar Plump Beauty, Benefit are giving away 'luxe minis' with Glamour magazine in the UK.

I seemed to get a few other vouchers today so thought I would pass them on!



The Body Shop have a jubilee 'buy 2 get 2 free' deal when you enter the voucher 'Queen'. If you spend over £25 then you will also qualify for free delivery :] which is always a bonus! There is also a 40% off code '40SHOP' which can be used up until 3rd June 2012.

Dorothy Perkins have a massive 30% off sale, with various brands included!

New Look currently have 25% off swimwear and sandals, as well as buy one get one free on sunglasses and jewellery/hair accessories.

If you buy the July issue of Marie Claire, they are giving away a full size bottle of Ciaté nail polish, worth £9.00. I managed to pick this up today in the colour 'Jelly Bean' which is a lovely pink shade with purple shimmer. There is also a Ciate discount code which entitles you to 25% off which is 'MARIE25'.
Also, if you sign up to the Marie Claire newsletter, you will receive a code to get 10% off at Urban Outfitters (and if you use code 'STYLEUK', it'll give you 15% off as well).
Next month in Marie Claire, there will be a free Avon mascara. worth £10.00.

In this month's issue of In Style, you can get a either a Body Shop 'Big & Curvy' mascara (£10) or two eye definers in black and french navy (£16).

There is another magazine which is giving away Gemma Kidd makeup but I can't remember what it is :[ sorry!

For the Yankee Candle lovers, they have a variety of discounts across all candles, including 50% off an 18pk of wax tarts, 29% off mango salsa, midnight jasmine and sweet strawberry. There is also a further 25% off all candle accessories and large jars!

What the Yankee?

Hi everyone :]

Thank goodness it's Friday! This feels like the longest week, EVER.

I'm so tired tonight, I can't even concentrate on the TV so thought I'd just have a look at a few websites, read some blogs and enjoy a nice coffee.

I was just looking at my blog updates and saw that Coleyyyful had just blogged about the most AMAZING lip balm. I need this in my life, so I bought one!

Sorry, picture taken from eBay

Oooooh yes, your eyes are not mistaken. This IS a Yankee Candle Lip Balm!
They come in a variety of scents  but I thought i'd try this as I thought the cookie and cakes ones may be a little too sweet for my liking. You can buy them for £3.99 on eBay here.

So a big thank you to Miss Coleyyyful for letting me know about such amazing things.

I will update you all once it arrives :]

Yayyy, weekend!

Turn that frown upside down

Hi everyone

Today has been such a rubbish day for various reasons but after going to the gym, having a slightly naughty dinner and finally chilling (shortly with a coffee)... I thought i'd share a couple of things that have put a little smile back on my face :]


It's not something I would normally listen to but I have to listen to this song every day at the moment. Love it!

The new Barry M nail paints in 'Nude' and 'Cappucino', available online now or Boots and Superdrug in June. I also love their new glitters, so check those out too!

FINALLY...


Louise from Sprinkle of Glitter. This video made me smile and giggle so much 'cause her little girl is soooo cute! It really was what I needed tonight :]


Hope you're all having a slightly better day than me!

A bit of a spring clean....

Hi everyone :]

As you may have noticed, I've had a bit of a spring clean... or just a tidy up of this little blog.

The weight loss, fitness and recipes were not enough to post about so thought I'd change it slightly so now, this is just a little place where I can share cute pictures, news and just general chit chat type stuff!

I will try to blog on a daily basis and try and do monthly giveaways once I reach a certain amount of subscribers!

Let's see how it goes, eh?

Also, I've opened the comments up to those who don't have a blogger account so now anyone should be able to comment :] woo!

Let me know your thoughts

xxxx

P.S - I thought I'd leave my old posts up, you know... just 'cause!
