I spent much of September dashing in and out of my local M&S to buy bits and pieces for the seaside cottage, which will be available to rent for holidays from approximately the year 2032. (At this rate. Cutlery, linen, pots and pans, butter dishes and tea towels,...
And so here it is, the Autumn Favourites video as promised. I'll now be doing my favourites videos seasonally, or with a theme - for example, "Haircare Favourites" or "Favourite Budget Bodycare". The seasonal favourites videos will be a light-hearted overview of the...
I've tried quite a few products from Marks & Spencer's own brand Formula before, but it seems that the entire skincare line has recently had a complete overhaul. Packaging, ingredients, formulations, the whole caboodle. There are six collections within the line,...
My forehead, for some reason, is as dry as a bone. This happened in my last pregnancy, too, so I'm not that surprised, but it's so dry that few things can even touch it when it comes to moisturisation. Even layering a moisturising spritz (pah!) with a hydrating serum...

Most excellent purchase of the winter so far: my leopard fingerless gloves from Mango at ASOS. They are more like an extra piece of clothing that an accessory; more a sleeve or an arm-warmer than a mere glove! I have never owned a pair of fingerless gloves before; all...
I could literally sleep for England. I bloody love sleeping. More than eating? Possibly, but don’t ask me to choose. I have to have at least eight hours of sleep a day, and if I don’t get it at the allotted time (at night) then I make up for it with numerous...

M&S bronzer is a winner!
