The Post-Christmas Beauty Sales 2015

When it comes to the Boxing Day sales, you can find me shopping away under the comfort of my own duvet, quiet and peaceful, brew in hand - a far cry from the shelf-raiding, elbow-nudging, lengthy-queing process of the in-store events which I've only managed to brave the once. Never again. If like me you like a bit of beauty sale browsing without the hassle, I've rounded up some of the best deals around, from candles and makeup, to skin, hair and body care, where you can hopefully find yourself a post-festive bargain...

Topshop Festive Party Makeup Look

If you asked me to sum up the festive season at one of my all time favourite stores, I'd tell you sequins, heels and a whole lot of sparkle, but ever since Topshop dropped their makeup line, it's all about the long lasting lashes, shadow sticks, red lips around Christmas time. I've been trying out said pieces from this years' launch paired with some already-there staples from my makeup collection to put together a look that's festive party ready - you know me and that I'm not one to really get glammed up to the nines, but if there is one time where I'm going to go all out with a full face, the time is now...

An Awesome Winter Haircare Pair

One winter woe when it comes to my locks is the shockingly static state it can get in when the central heating gets turned up a couple of notches - it lays low but clings to anything in sight and isn't willing to co-operate when it comes to any kind of styling. I like to lock in the moisture as it tends to dry out, but not so much so that things become too weighed down to do anything with - that's where my recently discovered awesome winter haircare pair comes into play. I've dabbled into Macadamia's range before and came out with all good results, not to mention some insanely, amazing smelling strands and so I couldn't wait to see what their Weightless Moisture duo would do for me and my unruly lengths...

November Favourites

Better late than never, my November monthly favourites have arrived amongst the Vlogmas madness. From candles to body creams, I feel every product that pops up in this video is AW appropriate - expect to see the most Christmassy home fragrance, the eyeshadow palette I just can't stop sweeping on, including a rusty-red all-over-the-lid kind of colour and a thick, rich velvet-like lotion which has been the only thing I've reached for post-shower. All of the three that you see above are to name but a few and there's a lot more where those came from in the way of beauty bits I've been really loving recently...
