Christmas Presents



Mega Haul of my Christmas goodies!





Ok, explanation of the cross in the first picture: I took this picture on Xmas morning but I don't own the Clarisonic Classic anymore. Basically, on Boxing Day I saw Clarisonic Mia on Buyapowa.com so I convinced my fiancé to return the other one. Oh boy, it took a lotttt of convincing - I tell ya! He really really wanted me to keep the 'better' version but I honestly couldn't justify the extra 60quid: I'm just as happy with the Mia. :) Actually I'm in love with my Mia - I can't wait to use it every evening.
I'm still trying it out, at the moment, to see what's best for my skin: I've been using it every night for the last 10 days (alternating the gentle hydro cleanser - which came in the box - and refreshing gel cleanser - from feel unique' box).
Currently, I'm researching which are the best cleanser for this tool; I'm set to buy Philosophy 'Purity' or one from Elemis. Please, comment below if you have any recommendation.
Do you have a Clarisonic? Would you like to try it?


Bobbi Brown - Bobbi's Party eau de parfum
This is so nice! Describing a perfume is always a challenge but what comes to mind are words like clean, fresh... Yes, i would say it smells kinda like soap - which I like but I don't know if the word sounds too appealing to other... if you pass by a BB counter give it a sniff and tell me what you think, ok? :)
We got it in House of Fraser at the beginning of December; they were running a promotion with O2 where if you spent £40 you're getting a £15 voucher. I got a free lippie with the voucher - also from the Bobbi Brown Party Collection (but it's sooo pretty that it deserves a separate post!).




loving this snood - it's super warm
Bag is from Zara and it's the perfect size: I can fit loads in it plus, it' has got cards slots in the front pocket so it's perfect also for a night out if I don't want to carry my wallet with me.
I like the college/retro feel of it and I've been looking for a green bag for some time actually! Perfect choice!





Fossil necklace is gorgeous! I love marcasite because I like vintage/vintage inspired jewellery. 
This has got silver and black crystals and stones making it super-sparkling.
There's a Fossil shop in the St Enoch Centre in Glasgow now - It's good they expanded from watches and they also sell jewellery and bags. I like their stuff, quite pricey tho.

  8. I know, been spoiled this Xmas! :)
    Clarisonic is definitely exciting!! My skin was soo smooth since the first use. I think the trick is to customise the use to your skin needs.
    My skin is quite good, plus I don't use make up everyday so I will probably start using 3 times per week now. That way I can give my skin a good cleanse without stress. I haven't experience any breakout after 1week of use, non-stop! (touch wood).

    1. The Clarisonic should be on buyapowa.com again soon. It's the cheapest I've seen it, I think is only white tho... Don't know if you wanted any particular colour...
