The Konjac Sponge- Angel Face Facial Cloth

Ive heard about The Konjac Sponge Co for a while now so I was excited to try out one of their new sponges; The Bamboo Charcoal Angle Cloth. (Konjac is a medical plant from Asia)
The Konjac Sponge Company have a range of different sponges/cloths ones for men for after shaving, a nourishing heart puff sponge, baby sponges and also have travel kits.

What do they do?

• Cleanse and exfoliates skin
• Refines pores
• Works without cleanser
• Removes makeup
• Leaves skin super soft

The Bamboo Charcoal Angle Cloth is perfect for anyone with oily skin, with the combination of Konjac plant fibre and charcoal powder this cloth provides a soft exfoliation and cleanse. You can use this product with or without cleanser as it works equally as well without, the charcoal draws out bacteria and dirt from you're pores. The cloth itself seems very hard and rough on first appearance but before apply to the skin you have to run the cloth under the water and the cloth becomes a soft almost jelly like texture that feels super soft on the skin.

I would definitely recommend these to anyone they are so gentle on the skin and are the perfect alternative to any other cloth as these cloths do much more than the ordinary cloth with no need to add any products to the sponge.

Gemporia- My Top 5 Picks

Today I will be doing a post on Gemporia I will be featuring my top 5 favourite picks from  Gemporia If you've never heard of them before they are a online jewellery company that uses genuine gemstones to create beautiful jewellery thats in limited quantities. One amazing thing about this company is the fact they give back to charity's in-particular The Colourful Life Charity which is always a nice thing to see from a company your buying from.

 This first ring is one of my favourites from the whole website, this is the White Topaz Sterling Silver Set of 3 Stacker Rings. These are made with 0.25 of white topaz from Brazil, and I think you can really tell how luxurious this ring is as it it looks very expensive and looks like its made very well. This ring is made up of three individual rings so you can wear them on their own if you wish to create a lovely look as this ring would definitely add sparkle to any outfit. It is priced at £36.99 with the recommended retail price being around £100 so this ring is at a bargain price which is always a bonus.

This next piece is a gorgeous pair of earrings, these are called the White Topaz Earrings in Sterling Silver. I think these are just so pretty the shape is so classy and elegant and I think these would be perfect put together with a classy outfit for a nice occasion. These too are made from White Topaz from Brazil and the are priced at £49.99 with a RRP for £84.99 so again a great saving and they look so much more expensive than they actually are. These would also make the perfect gift for a girlfriend, wife, friend and even mum.  

Next is my favourite item of them all and one thats on my list to buy next because its so beautiful, this is called the White Topaz Sterling Silver Set of 3 Stacker Rings. This one is priced at £36 with a RRP of £100 so a saving of £64 which is huge, this ring is made from White Topaz from India. Again this set of rings come individually so can be worn separate but when worn together it makes such a lovely statement piece of jewellery that can be dressed up for fancy occasions or even just look amazing featured in a casual look.

 This is the Dimond Bangle in Sterling Silver 0.25, this is priced at £59.99 making it the most expensive piece out of them all but has a RRP of £299 so again it has a massive saving. This also features 1/4ct of diamonds from South Africa, how impressive. How amazing is this bangle though? I could just imagine wearing this with one if the rings with a lovely dress and the jewellery standing out and looking very classy and stunning. Again this would make the perfect gift especially with Christmas just around the corner this would make such a great idea. 

 Now this ring is a bit different for me but there is just something about it that draws me in, this is called the Amethyst Bridge Mini Stacking ring.  This is from the Bride collection which features a number of different coloured rings with different colour stones in them, these come in two sizes mini and maxi, maxi obviously being the bigger of the two. There are some really beautiful colours in the range including greens and blues. This one is the mini size and is priced at £23 which I think is pretty reasonable, I'm in love with this ring and many others from the collection, I would definitely recommend you check them out. 

Overall  Gemporia  is a great website for finding gorgeous pieces of Jewellery at such a good price so if you're looking for yourself or even for a gift I would definitely recommend you check them out.

Flo Accessories

I recently got the opportunity to work with Flo Accessories, if you've never heard of them which I hadn't before working with them they are a travel and beauty accessories, they have some great little things including the light up tweezes, light up mirror and perfume atomiser. I was lucky enough to receive the perfume atomiser and the light up tweezers.

The first one I will talk about will the LED tweezers, I loved the idea of these straight away it means that you can see the hairs that you ordinarily wouldn't have or if your like me and uses your phone touch behind a mirror there is no longer a need for this. I have literally loved using these so far, I don't have anything bad to say but they are battery operated so you will have replace these every once in a while.

The other thing I received was the perfume atomiser, this has come in so handy already. I travel a lot to Ireland and only take a cabin suitcase so i cant bring my big bottle of perfume but in this case it means that I can transfer some of my favourite perfume into a smaller bottle. It comes with instructions on how to do this which is so simple it literally takes a minute. So yeah these are amazing and come in so handy.

Mandara Spa- Amber Heaven

If you seen my previous post I reviewed a collection of goodies from Mandara Spa and lucky me got a chance to review another collection by them, this time it was in the Amber Heaven scent.  They contain Sandalwood and Patchouli, which aim to relax you. You can find them online at Time To Spa or in Sainsburys which tend to have a lot of offers on so I would look there first.

Im going to start by talking about the scent otherwise ill mention it when I talk about each of the products, its quite woody smell which personally I love but it is very strong so for those who aren't into the very powerful scents then I would recommend you try out there honey milk collection which I reviewed as this is a much softer soothing scent in comparison.

Firstly is the hand wash, I think this is one of my favourite things that Mandara Spa do they feel so luxurious for a hand wash and look it took and I love that about them, it lathers up very well to be nice and bubbly just what you need and how pretty would this look on your sink?

Next is moisturising bath essence, this is just added to your bath under running water. The smell in itself when added to your bath just gives you the most relaxing feeling ever and it genuinely leaves your skin feeling supper soft and silky which is lovely.

Next is the shower cream, obviously this is to be applied in the shower and rinsed off. This is quite a thick shower cream, not too thick but enough to leave your skin feeling very well moisturised. Another thing I noticed about this product is a little goes a long way which is always good!

Lastly is the body cream, this basically acts like a moisturiser and is similar to the shower cream in many ways. This looks like quite a thick moisturiser which is good for people who have dry skin like me but again a little goes a long way. I suffer from eczema so I am always on the look out for anything extra moisturising and this definitely did the job.

I hope you enjoyed!

How to stay cozy this Autumn!

I thought I would put together a little post about the things I think are amazing for your house to keep warm and cozy throughout the autumn and winter season. There's nothing better than stepping into your house after being in the freezing cold and stepping into a warm, cozy house and I'm going to share the ways help achieve this.

Door curtains

These are something that I've only just found out about but are amazing for this time of year. They are designed simply to go in front of the door to keep out any draughts that come under your door, amazing right? This is also perfect for anyone who has a front door in their living room and want to cover it up and you would just look like it is a window behind. I just think these are amazing to keep in the heat in all your rooms and keep your electricity bills down in the colder months. In my house these would be perfect for the conservatory as the conservatory is one place that gets really cold so having something that will cut off the cold from getting in the rest of the house is perfect. You can find door curtains in Yorkshire Linen range here. These one are available for as little as £19.99 which seems to be very affordable and a investment for in the long run. Also Harry Corry do a lovely range of door curtains in alternative colours which can be found here.

Blankets

For me blankets and throws are an essential for this time of year, I take them all round the house with me not only do they look pretty at the end of your bed but they keep you supper cozy. There's nothing better on a cold night than sitting with your blanket over you all cozy and warm and theres some super cute blankets out there. You can find this one here. 

Bedding

Bedding is an important part of staying cozy, not only is it amazing to have a nice thick duvet to keep you all warm the duvet cover is very important. Picking greys, oranges and browns are very autumnal and having a duvet cover in these colours is amazing to keep it seasonal. Not only do they keep it seasonal they help to create a cozy atmosphere, add a few candles and you've got your perfect cozy room.  You can find this one here. 

How do you stay cozy in Autumn? 

Whats In My Bag DONE

I thought i would share with you all whats in my bag as they are very popular post and yet one i have never ever done. First of all this bag is from Floriell i got it last year from a outlet, I'm not going to lie ever since the shop has been there i have got one every time I visit, literally every time. 

So heres whats is actually in my bag:

Origins Lip Balm- I always take a lip balm in my bag as they always come in handy and theres nothing worse than walking round with dry lips and having nothing to put on them and this one by Origins is amazing I've been loving trying it out recently, definitely a handbag essential especially in the winter seasons. 

Nyx Matte Lipstick- I always have a lipstick in my bag usually its the one I'm wearing that day incase I have to re apply but if I'm not wearing one I still make sure I always have one with me as you never know when you will need them. This Nyx matte lipstick is a perfect dark pink colour for the winter season 

Powerbank and Phone Charger- I literally don't go anywhere and I mean anywhere without these, this power bank has 200% charge with it and its essential for days out or when I'm in uni as my phone battery literally never lasts me all day.

Zara Perfume-This little perfume is perfect for my handbag, its tiny so fits in any bag and its great to keep you topped up when your out all day and you know sometimes when you feel like you could do with a freshen up.

Body Shop Hand Cream- I love this hand cream it smells amazing and its so soft on your skin, its perfect to keep in your bag especially in winter as sometimes I tend to get rough and dry skin.

Ted Baker Purse- A purse is a pretty obvious essential but I take my Ted Baker purse everywhere with me, I should really get a smaller one because when I only have a small bag this literally takes us all of the room.

Keys- Again another pretty obvious one, keys. You always need your keys in your bag to save yourself getting locked out which has happened to me quite a few times.

Whats your handbag essentials?

Beauty Uk- Contour Chubby Sticks

I had seen contour chubby sticks all over twitter and blogs for quite come time and I love to contour so I really wanted to try these out so when given the opportunity I jumped and I must say I haven't used any other contour product since I received these, I'm in love.

These are called the Ultimate Contour Chubby Sticks and they are available to buy individually for £4.99 or £16.99 for the whole set of four. They come in four shades; Medium Contour, Dark Contour, Beige Highlight and Shimmer Highlight.

Personally I don't use the dark contour because I'm so pale (aka Casper the ghost), I haven't even applied it on my face because the Medium contour is such a good match. Obviously the Dark Contour would be perfect for anyone with a darker skin tone.

The Medium Contour is a great colour for me even though at first it still looks dark, all contour looks this way. I apply this to my cheeks, jawline and forehead and blend out with a beauty blender. These are a very creamy, smooth consistency once applied but are very easy to blend. The fact that it is on a chubby stick make supplication so easily as you can easily draw the lines of where you want the contour to be. Once blended out it gives a really chiselled, contour look that I love. I literally haven't used another product since, I just love how easy it is to apply and the finished look that it gives.

Both Highlights are amazing but I use them both for different things, the beige highlight I use under my eyes and in the middle of my forehead and blend out with the beauty blender which makes under my eyes look illuminated and a lot brighter. Then to finish it off i use the shimmer highlight on the top of my check bones to give a highlighted finish as this highlight is more shimmery than the other.

Overall I love these products, the consistency and the finished look is amazing and I think for the price they are worth every penny. I literally haven't put these down since.

Sugarbaby- Body scrub & Hair Mask

First of all i must say how flipping cute is the packaging for this? Its so so so pretty! Sugar baby is a Australian brand made by two sisters  inspired by the seaside they sell a range of bath, body and tanning products. They are available now from Superdrug!

Sugar Crush- Coconut & Raw Sugar Exfoliating Body Scrub
This is perfect for exfoliating, I used this before going on holiday to get rid of any dead skin meaning that my tan would last longer after holiday. The raw sugar in this is what exfoliates the skin, making your skin feel super soft especially as it is added with coconut oil. This product was a much sweeter smell, it was very strong in coconut but the sugar added a sweeter tone to the scrub.

Hair Affair- Hydrating Coconut Hair Treatment 
This was a god send to me while on holiday, being in the 30 degree sun really makes your hair feel dull and dry so I thought this would be the perfect thing to revitalise it and it sure did! This again was very strong in coconut scent but smelt amazing on the hair i could smell it for days! This treatment is to be left on the hair for five minutes after it has been washed then to be rinsed off and after doing this  my hair felt so soft and amazing I loved this! A great thing about this is that it will last for so long so your hair can keep on looking amazing!

Coco-Luxe- Cleansing Coconut Beauty Bar
Personally this was my favourite product of them all, I opened it and fell in love with the smell it was just amazing so fresh and such a holiday scent it put me in the perfect holiday mood especially as I was going away two days later! It is made from coconut oil and Coconut milk perfect for cleaning and healing! This also has Shea Butter and Aloe Vera making this perfect for anyone with dry or sensitive skin or eczema like me, I was so surprised at first that this would work well on my eczema but it really did!
