I'll be the first to admit that I have always struggled with my skin, from the age of around 12 I have suffered with a 'combination' skin type and for the past few years I have been looking for products that actually work! I have tried pretty much every skin care product out there and nothing was very effective for me!



Until I recently read some really great reviews on Elemis products, I had a look around and found some really great products that I have tried and tested and now I want to share them with you guys!! The first product which I absolutely LOVE is the Elemis Pro Collagen Cleansing Balm, I know what you're thinking; a BALM on your face is going to get pretty greasy but you're completely wrong! The balm comes with a cute little white wash cloth and tiny spatula which shows you how much product to use.  It costs £40 from the Elemis website - but I would recommend shopping around because a lot of places do great deals on Elemis products! I know £40 is a lot to spend on one cleanser but honestly your skin will feel so much softer and more refreshed and I've had mine for over a month and I've barely made a dent in it! I use it every night before bed and when I wake up my skin still feels so fresh!!


The second product that I wanted to mention was the Herbal Lavender Repair Mask, I love this product and it's perfect for blemish prone skin. It's a clay mask so it is quite thick but I love these are my favourite face masks because I feel like it's really getting into my pores and clearing them out! I'm not a big fan of high street brands of face masks as the fruity flavours tend to irritate my skin and therefore do the opposite of what they're meant to! But the lavender mask is really cooling and it smells incredible! The instructions say to use it once or twice a week so I usually have a Friday night face mask to refresh myself ready for the weekend! simply wear the mask for10 minutes, enjoy the light tingling feeling and wash off!


If you have any questions about these products or if you have any other Elemis products that you love please let me know! I've linked everything so they should be easy to find!

 (Don't judge!) I absolutely love these jeans and the fact they were from Tesco and cost around £15 makes it even better! They're really fitted and keep their shape and elasticity really well, they are also nicely fitted around the ankles, which is an issue I've found a lot with cheaper jeans! But I'd definitely recommend these jeans, they're not currently on the website but there are a few in different washes.

Thursday night was date night, with Mexican food and plenty of wine - perfect! Mexican food is my ultimate favourite food in the world, a massive pile of nachos and a stack of fajitas is my idea of heaven! But anyway onto the clothes, I thought I'd put together a little blog post to document my OOTN (outfit of the night ...?).




At the minute I'm absolutely lovingggg tapered trousers so when I saw these beauties in New Look for just £19.99 it was love at first sight! The fit is really lovely as they're super comfortable and high waisted which is a lot more flattering for me compared to low rise. The body was actually a present from my best friend for my birthday and I love it! The high neck design is super on trend and I loved the stripes too! I paired this outfit with my new favourite Primark heels (massive bargain at £12!) and my new Zara leather jacket which I have been pairing with everything since my birthday!
Feel free to leave your comments, if you like (or didn't like!) this outfit and any cool date night suggestions!

Am I the only one who can't believe it's March already?! But hey, over a week in and I've already got a wish list..some of these things I have actually already bought this month but hey ho - you get the gist!

1. At the minute I'm completely obsessed with tapered trousers, so when I saw these Topshop beauties it was love at first sight! They're high waisted so super flattering with a cropped leg length and gorgeous navy and white pin stripes! These trousers are so versatile and I literally don't take them off (I'm wearing them right now!) I've wore them to work with lace up flats, shopping with a cropped suede biker jacket and lace up boots and I think they'll be perfect for date night with my Carrie Bradshaw fluffy heels and a plunging body suit! Shop here: Pinstripe Peg Trousers - £35

2. Next on my list are these gorgeous Zara culottes! I definitely think culottes are something you love or hate...the Marmite of the fashion world, but I for one absolutely love them! I think they're super classy and again, very versatile. I may have already bought these to....(ooops) and I've paired them with a black bodysuit and my forever trustworthy leather jacket. Shop here: Red Culottes - £19.99

3. Finally something I am yet to buy! But it's definitely next on the list, at the minute i'm lovvvving bodysuits they look a lot more polished then when you just 'tuck your top in' and they're also super comfy! This lace up one from Topshop would be perfect for a night out or even paired with high waisted jeans and a fur coat for a more casual shopping day! I absolutely love the lace up trends from tops to shoes and I hope it's going nowhere any time soon! Shop here: Lace Up Bodysuit - £18.00

4. Okay, I may have bought these too....they're the perfect dupes from the Topshop alternatives which are £75! These beauties are only £34.99 from Public desire and look just as chic. These boots look great with black skinny jeans and a leather jacket or I've even paired mine with tights and a fitted suede bodycon dress! Shop here: Black Ankle Boots - £34.99

5. Last but certainly not least are these gorgeous khaki boots! My obsession with shoes (mostly heels!) will truly never end and it's due to gorgeous shoes like these! I'm also loving the amount of khaki on the high street at the minute, I absolutely love neutral shades! I'd pair these beauties with black skinnies or maybe a mini skirt and black tights... so many possibilities! Shop here: Khaki Ankle Boots - £34.99

Anyway, that's my March wish list, everything I've spoken about has been linked so, shop shop shop!

Love,
