Skin Saviour: Clarins Beauty Flash Balm

My skin has been a little lacklustre lately.

I blame it on the cold weather which has finally arrived in London, and which appears to be staying for the foreseeable future (boo). Cold weather always makes my skin much dryer (it's already incredibly dry) and I genuinely feel as soon as I put some moisturizer on my face, my skin rejoices and drinks it up faster than I can down a shot in Infernos.

Charlotte Tilbury: Dolce Vita

Charlotte Tilbury has got to be the one counter that I have to visit every time I go to the Selfridges beauty hall. I'm like a moth to a flame. The girls on the counter are stunning (and their make up is beautiful, most importantly) and the displays and products just scream luxury. Unfortunately, so does the price tag.

 

However, I was lucky enough to have been gifted a Selfridges voucher for my birthday, and I knew immediately I had to buy something from CT. The only question was what.

Likya

My Mum's company have recently opened up a new pharmacy in Golders Green, and recently they had an event where high end make up products were heavily discounted (more on those at a later date). We went along to the event after work, and then had to find somewhere to grab a bite to eat having spent ALL our money at the pharmacy (we were like children in a sweet shop).

Smack Lobster

 When I heard that a sister restaurant to the infamous Burger and Lobster was opening up in London I planned my trip faster than you can say lobster.

Signature Scent: Elie Saab

Every girl has a 'signature scent.' That one smell that you hope that people associate with you. I personally think smells have the greatest power to evoke memories and reminders of people. Too many times I've smelt someone's aftershave and done a double take because it's the same one an ex-boyfriend used to wear.

BOBO Social - Experimental Burger Society

A few weeks ago the girls and I did something a little different for my pre-birthday dinner and went to BOBO Social on Charlotte Street. On normal nights, the restaurant is a burger/cocktail restaurant, but on Mondays they hold the 'Experimental Burger Society.' For £25 you get a night with the restaurant's head chef, you make and eat your own burger, and a cocktail is also thrown in. Sound good? Read on.

NARS Laser Cut palette

A few posts ago I wrote about a beautiful NARS palette which had stolen my heart. Well it turns out that my nearest and dearest know me very well, and another very special someone bought me this baby for my birthday…
