Eyes On You

 So it’s that time of year again, where we can wrap up in front of the fire with some cozy knits and a cuppa to keep us nice and warm away from this Irish winter that we dread so much every year!  How-ever we can’t live like hermits and hibernate for the whole winter so when we go out we have to make some bit of an effort, while staying warm and stylish. I don’t know about you but my winter style so far, I always end up feeling like layers of clothes just throw up on me with out matching what so ever! This year I am dedicated to putting in the extra effort.

This outfit represents  how I would like my style to be this winter, dark with some quirky embellishments, colours and textures. Just because the winter is dark and dull, doesn’t mean our style has to be!

In the coming weeks I hope to give you some tips and display some of my online favourites with you! So stay tuned for some more ranting about the weather and how cold I am! I am Irish after all that’s what we talk about 90% of the time! I will try to keep my blog winter blues free!

Our First Holiday 

I just recently got back from my trip to Salou with Joe. It was an absolutely brilliant holiday, considering my card was swallowed by an ATM the first day, I managed to get over it quickly and enjoy the rest of the holiday! 

Moving on from this very dull  beginning I have been to Salou before but not the main part, the busy beach and strip and I must say I really loved it. The shopping wasn't the best there but I suppose that was a blessing in disguise for me... On the other hand the picturesque streets are enough to bring me back. As well as the theme park and water park where I conquered a lot of fears may I add!! 

One morning Joe and I decided to wake up early, 6am early! And have a nice morning stroll on the beach as well as take a few pictures while it was quiet. 

I've been back in Ireland for exactly twelve days, and I already want to hop on a plane to another destination. Maybe a short city break or somewhere tropical... I know two complete polar opposites but hey.. a girl can dream!

Thanks so much if read this far! I'm trying to break back into blogging so I really appreciate anyone who supports me!

Until next time,

My Go To 2017 Products So Far .....

     Improve your daily look with very little effort 

                                                     

 No.1 : Charlotte Tilbury 

Honestly the first time I heard of the great Charlotte Tilbury was this year when a section opened up at my local Brown Thomas and my first impression was "WOW". Everything looked so glam and rose gold ( my fav) but the the prices came into play. At first I was hesitant to purchase but I just said you gotta try sometime... and thankfully I did because these products are now some of my favourites!

I purchased the "All in one Makeup Kit" which supposedly only takes five minutes to transform you into your desired look...however being more realistic it takes me much longer as my skin isn't as even as all those models in her photos but hey we can try, right? even at that these products are amazing quality, they smell really great and the girls at the counter are always very helpful, making sure you choose the right products for your skin tone and needs!

The Kit is priced at €65.00 which may seem like a lot at first but if you look at everything you get in the kit, the price is actually very good value!

One of my favourite products is the Wonder glow, while this is just a sample size a little goes a long way with this product! It can be worn on its own, under or over your makeup to create a glowing  look!

No.2 ST. TROPEZ 

 Self tan and gradual tan 

One Word.... amazing! 

I've tried so many different tans throughout my teen years and it has taken me this long to find the one tan that I can't fault. Everything from the scent to the ease of application makes this tan my number one!

If you want a tan that builds up gradually creating a sun kissed glow then you should opt for the Gradual Everyday Body Lotion, this tan builds up very evenly and gives a stunning glow to the skin. While a lot of tans mask your skin tone, this tan is different  it simply gives your natural skin tone a healthy sun kissed glow.For a deeper tan the best one to go for is the Self Tan Bronzing Lotion you can wash it off within an hour but if you want a darker tan then I would suggest leaving it on overnight.

No. 3 Bellamianta Tanning Mitt

By far the best mitt I've ever tried! The easiest and most even application. The velvet texture allows for a streak free and even finish. Retailing at the reasonable price of €9.95, This tanning mitt is a must have for any tan fanatic... Trust me! It'll make your tanning life so much easier!

No.4 Bioxidea - 24 Hour Miracle Face Mask 

http://bioxidea.com

I only found out about this face mask this Christmas when I received it as a gift off my boyfriend because he said I might stop giving out about "all my spots" if this works... how charming I know ! But on a serious note I have seen some improvements in the texture of my skin, my skin feels smoother I haven't had any major breakouts which is unusual especially coming up to my time of the month.. so it makes me wonder is it the mask having miraculous results or is it just pure luck! 

This pack comes with three face masks, some people recommend to use it coming up to special occasion to make sure your skin is in top condition.
