My Top 5 Holiday Essentials | Beauty & Body
Hey Guys,
So as a few of you may know I recently went to Turkey for two weeks. While I was there I found myself reaching for a few beauty and body bits and bobs constantly, so I thought I would share them with you!
Suncream is a staple on every holiday but this year I was loving Piz Buin Tan & Protecr Suncream in SPF 6 it was really moisturising which is really important for my dry skin and didn't feel horrible and sticky on my skin like most sun creams. I also found the protection good, although being blessed with tough skin means I dont ever burn, I do occasionally peal ans with this I didn't really at all.
I spoke about this a few posts back but Im still really loving the Garnier Ultimate Body Oil. Its so quick and simple and worked so well at keep my skin moisturised in the heat. When I didn't use it my skin was super dry and horrible so I feel this really does work.
Although when Im away I dont tend to wear a huge amount of make up, in the evening I like a little colour on my cheeks and NARS blush in Taj Mahal has been my go to blush the whole time I was there and since I've been back. The gold colour looks brilliant with a tan and the hints of shimmer just made me look awake and sun kissed.
Along with blush I was also wearing mascara and this year I picked up L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Waterproof. Again I loved this, it left my lashes long and full and really was waterproof, lasted all day when I was in and out the pool but came off at night with bioderma.
Lastly while I was away I carried MAC fix + with me everywhere! Probably not for the main reason your meant to but it was so nice to spray on my face if I was feeling really hot and sweaty and I felt like it was almost clearing my skin of all the dirt and dust it picked up while I was walking around and really refreshed my skin. I have a full review of fix + here

Turkey '13
Hey Guys!
A few of you may know that I've been on holiday in Turkey for the last couple of weeks! We stayed in the Suntopia Tropical and I had the most amazing time and it was so lovely to relax a bit. I couldn't have asked for a better two weeks! We meet some amazing people and did some awesome trips! So I thought I would share with you some photos on what I got up to and also some outfit pictures from while I was there! Enjoy!
Also you may have noticed I've had my blog redesigned by the lovely Amy from Little Koala! and cannot recommend her more! Let me know what you think of the new look!

Dutyfree haul and my week in Magaluf!
Hey Lovelies
I mentioned briefly in my last blog that I was going on holiday with all my friends, I got back yesterday and thought I would share some photos of my time! I had an amazing time with my friends, we stayed in a lovely hotel (amazing considering your in Magaluf anyway haha!) We had a typical girls holiday, chilled all day and out all night. Definitely the best week of my life, i'll never forget it.
So as per usual I had a shopping list for the airport, I like to take full advantage of Duty Free. My first stop was the MAC stand. For a few weeks now I've been looking more into powders as they are something i've never really incorporated into my make up routine before, and I thought i'd treat myself for holiday and picked up the MAC mineralise skin finish natural I can't remember the exact price and the recite didn't make it back from the holiday but because of duty free I think it was around £19.
Next i wanted a new summer fragrance, about a year ago I got Marc Jacobs Daisy as a birthday present, and Im only just starting to run out and the packaging, although beautiful, is so bulky I didn't want to bring the whole bottle for the tiny bit of I have left. I'd heard mention of ESCADA's 3 summer fragrances, Sexy Graffiti, Island Kiss and Rockin Rio. So I thought this was a good chance to give them a smell. I liked all 3 of them but it was Island Kiss that caught my eye. Its got a fruity smell to it and reminds me of water mellon, but in a fresh scent. I thought it was a lovely light, fresh scent perfect for summer and a good day time scent as well! Again the price escapes me but around £28 I think (I'm awful, Sorry!)

Also a little side note which I think I was just as excited about as my actually holiday, was this box of goodies that I found waiting for me on my bed! My mum was given a huge box of rejected lush bath bombs that couldn't be sold because they were chipped or slightly broken! I can't believe it, some of them are in such good condition I wouldn't even think twice about buying them in store, one mans loss is another gain I guess! Thought i'd also include a few sneaky snaps of my holiday too and say a Thank you because when I arrived home I realised i'd hit the 50 followers mark! Thank you guys so much for reading!
