Need some last minute nails for New Years Eve? Elegant Touch x House of Holland have got you covered! These nails are super glam and will look as if you have spent a fortune in a salon and party ready. Even if these aren't something you will wear for NYE, these would be great to wear around Valentine's Day too.

Winter Tanning with St Moriz

All year round I am very pale skinned as I avoid the sun at all costs, I refuse to damage my skin but in the winter especially I look like a ghost. During the festive period, I always feel like I need a little confidence boost as I always eat way too much and a good tan always helps with this. St Moriz is my go to tanning brand and is one of the only fake tan brands that I trust as it rarely fails me!

Super Soft Hair with Umberto Giannini

I haven't used any Umberto Giannini products in years and these two products were the perfect reintroduction. My hair is always pretty dry no matter what the time of year but it is much worse during the Winter, especially if I don't use a good hydrating shampoo and conditioner first. These two products couldn't have arrived at a better time!

Beauty Wishlist #45

I feel like I haven't bought any new makeup in forever, I have been buying so many Christmas presents so I will have to treat myself in the Boxing Day sales this year, let's hope for good deals. These are the products currently on my wishlist, I hope Santa brings me one or two in a few days, I promise I have been good!

Make Up For Ever Basic Mini Eye Set

I have been wanting to try Make Up For Ever for the longest time and this year I have tried a few different products and loved them! I was sent a lovely surprise Christmas gift from the people over at Precious About Makeup (thank you!) and I have become even more obsessed with MUFE!Make Up For Ever Basic Mini Eye Set

Top Five Winter/Christmas Candles

I love candles all year but I become obsessed with them in the winter and at Christmas! There is something about Christmas scents that I love more than any other type of fragrance, it's is probably because I love Christmas so much! These five scents are my favourites at the moment and I need to get back ups immediately.

Urban Decay Perversion & Subversion

If there was only one beauty product I could only take with me to a desert island, it would be mascara as I never feel right without my lashes done! I have been loving Urban Decay this year and I hadn't tried any of their mascaras before but I had always heard good things so I couldn't wait to use them for myself. I hadn't really used a lash primer before either and I have been so impressed!

Lee Stafford The Academy Straightener

I have ridiculously long hair so my go to hair style is always straight as it is so quick and easy, not to mention that my hair is pretty straight anyway. I had been in serious need of some new straighteners and these arrived at the perfect time. I know everybody raves abut ghd's but I personally don't think they are worth the type - these are so much better and slightly cheaper too!

Hair Care Currently on Trial

I have been loving trying out new hair care to find the best products for my problematic hair. Having such long hair which is washed daily with daily heat use and regular colour changes means I need good hydrating products. I have been testing out these four products for a while and my hair has been really enjoying them so far.Hair Care Currently on Trial

Vichy Ideal Body Balm

I have a huge fan of the Vichy Ideal range as skincare so I was excited to finally try out one of the newer launches to the Ideal range but for body care now! There are a few body care products from the Ideal range and it will depend on your skin type for which product you go for.

Soap and Glory Take Your Pink Gift Set

Soap and Glory have a gift set for every price range this year and this one would be perfect as a secret Santa gift set or as a little something extra! With just ten days left until Christmas Day, it is time to get all of your shopping sorted and this little beauty is on the fabulous 3 for 2 offer at Boots.

Kat Von D Lock It Creme Concealer

I had been wanting to try out the Kat Von D products for the longest time so when I saw that Debenhams at 10% off a few weeks ago, I made my first purchase. I decided to pick up the Lock It Concealer rather than any of her liquid lipsticks as I hadn't seen anyone really talk about this and concealers are one of my all time favourite makeup products to try out.

NEW Eylure x Fleur de Force Lashes

I am a huge Fleur de Force fan and I have watched her for years so when she launched her beauty line I was so excited. And then I found out about her collaboration with Eylure, my favourite budget lash brand, and I was over the moon! Fleur and Eylure have very recently released two new styles of lashes which I am in love with and they arrived at the perfect time with Christmas in just two weeks. These would make great stocking fillers and will be perfect for oany Christmas party.

I always love trying out new lip products and I actually had never tried anything from No7 before but I have been pretty impressed! This is one of the Christmas gift sets available at Boots this year from No7 and it is definitely worth checking out if you like lip products, it is also in the three for two offer too!

Pick 'n' Melt Standard Christmas Set

I am a candle obsessive, I have such a stash that it will take me forever to get through them all! One of the candle related products I use so much is wax melts, I have always found them to be much more affordable and always having a better scent throw. Pick n Melt is a new brand to me and I couldn't wait to try out their Standard Christmas Gift Set.

TIGI S Factor Diamond Shine Glitz & Sparkle Gift Set

It's the season of gifting and I always love receiving hair care at Christmas! Everyone uses hair care so it is an easy gift to give as you can't really go wrong! I have been trying out a few different products from TIGI, I was a huge fan of the Bed Head Resurrection Gift Set (review here) so I was excited to try out a few products from the S Factor range.

My Favourite Christmas Movies

It's no secret how much I love Christmas, I don't shut up about it! For the past couple of weeks, I have pretty much watched a different Christmas movie every single day, I am obsessed. I thought I would share my all time favourite Christmas movies as well as some new ones which I really enjoyed. I can't wait to finish work next week and watch even more!

Soap and Glory Star Gift 2016 - The Whole Glam Lot

It's that time of year again! Soap and Glory Star Gift is back and better than ever! This time around Soap and Glory have switched up the products inside and I am obsessed with the case that it comes in, it is going to be brilliant to store beauty products in. If you want to get your hands on this, I would act fast as it always sells out fast!

Bath and Body Works Haul with My Mall Box

I have been obsessed with Bath and Body Works products lately and I knew I wanted to place an order from the US. While there are a couple of ways to get hold of their products in the UK (in detail here), you can't always find the specific products you are after which is where My Mall Box comes in. This is a forwarding service which I highly recommend for larger or heavier orders.

Christmas Lip Product Gift Set Top Picks

  Lip products are one of my favourite products in my makeup collection and at Christmas I always go a little crazy! I find the Christmas gift sets to be the best value for money and I personally always love getting the mini sizes as I hardly ever go through a full size! These are my four top picks from the Christmas gift offerings this year.

Soap & Glory Christmas Gift Sets Under £15

Soap and Glory always do the best Christmas gift sets on the high street and this years are no different. These are two of my favourite gift sets available this year at Boots, they also have some for as low as £5, these would be great for stocking fillers or secret Santa gifts.

Burt's Bees Christmas Gifting

Burt's Bees is a brand that I had really wanting to try this year and there is no better time than Christmas! These two gift sets are under £10 each making them affordable gifting options and having tried out these products, I haven't been disappointed! If you know someone who loves essential beauty products, you can't go wrong with either of these gift sets.

Joan Collins Beauty First Impressions

Having tried out one of the Joan Collins Lipsticks, I knew I wanted to try more from the range. These two products have been great for this time of year for setting and perfecting my makeup. I have to say, I have been really impressed with the beauty products from Joan Collin's Timeless Beauty range and I wish I hadn't overlooked the products as I have been missing out!

Juicy Couture Mini Perfume Gift Set

I have always been a huge fan of the Juicy Couture fragrances since I was a teen and this cute gift set has reminded me how much I really did love their scents and now I definitely have to get full sizes soon. I love receiving perfumes as Christmas gifts as I never buy them for myself, I always treat someone to one too and this gift set would make such a great Christmas present as you receive four different fragrances from Juicy Couture.

Tigi Bed Head Resurrection Gift Set

I am obsessed with trying out hair care and this is one of the only ranges that I use on my hair that I actually notice a huge difference when I use it and when I don't. I do think hair care is worth investing in, especially if you colour treated and use heat tools daily as I do find the higher end hair care products to give my hair better results which actually last.

My Festive Workspace with Debenhams

If you know me at all, you will know how much I freaking love Christmas. As soon as September rolls around I begin to get excited and I love nothing more than decorating my house for Christmas, watching Hallmark Channel Christmas movies and lighting all the Christmas scented candles. Debenhams offered to help make my work space a little more festive and I am loving the Christmassy update to my desk!

Orelia Open Star Bangle

Jewellery is one of my favourite gifts to receive at Christmas and this bracelet would have been a perfect gift to unwrap on Christmas Day. Orelia isn't a brand I had heard too much about previously but I have fallen in love with a few of their pieces and this is one of my favourites and I have worn it every day since it arrived.

Paul & Joe Stocking Fillers

Paul and Joe is a brand that I have wanted to try for ages and this years Winter collection really caught my attention. In true Paul and Joe style, everything is beautifully packaged and presented and if you know anything about me you will know how much I love Christmas and I have really fallen in love with this collection.

Now that December is here it won't be long before all of the Christmas parties start! These are my top recommendations to get you party ready this holiday season and are the products that I will personally be using. I find that I start prepping for a party a few days before - I always want to look my best!

Soap & Glory 12 Christmas Washes

I always am a huge fan of the Soap and Glory Christmas gift sets and this is one of my favourite ones available this year and I am now well stocked up on a few of my favourites! This year, Soap and Glory's Christmas gift sets have the theme of Glitzmas and they have done it again with the amazing packaging - one of them even sings and this set in particular lights up!

It's been my favourite food delivery of the month day again - Degustabox day! This month's box is the Christmas box and while it doesn't have anything specifically Christmas related, it does have a box full of food and drink items which will be perfect for the holiday season. I have found a few new favourites from this month's box, I always love being able to try new things from my Degustabox!
