BANISH AUTUMN: HAPPY HAIR

This blustering weather can also take it's toll on your hair, making it dry, frizzy and making any split ends look 10 times worse than what they are.

Here are my top 3 products to help combat horrid hair:

£10.99 - available here

This stuff is Gods gift to all girls who look at their hair and realise how dry their ends are. You put a small amount of this balm onto the ends of your hair which turns the balm into a sort of oil, moisturising your locks and turning them silky soft.

£5.99 now £2.99 - available here

I like to use this conditioner when I'm in a rush and don't have time to wait for a mask to work it's magic. This Dove conditioner is a non-greasy, dry oil product so it definitely replenishes hair just in 3 minutes. I love to whack this on, do my thaaang and rinse it off just before I'm about to jump out of the shower to get the best benefits.

£6.29 - available here

I like to use this once a week as it leaves my hair looking like I've just got back from the salon; full, healthy and glowing. Love this mask!

How do you keep your hair tip-top shape?

HALLOWEEN: LEOPARD MAKEUP

MEOW!

A quick guide on how to get this cute kitty makeup. 

Could probably have added a few steps between the 3rd and 4th tile, however I tend to get carried away!

BANISH AUTUMN: HAPPY BODY

There's nothing quite like getting out the bath and slathering on that moisturiser..

Oh wait. I hate doing that, but in these winter months, it's an essential part to keeping up your silky, smooth limbs!

Here are my 3 top picks for these coming winter months:

£11 - available here

This smells gorgeous- nice and fresh, like a summery fruit salad. It sinks in very quickly, which is great for when you've just jumped out of the shower and it's too cold to sit around waiting for the lotion to sink in! I love the fact that this smells delicious on your skin all day - I always get asked what perfume I'm wearing and honestly, this is the thing! 

£7.50 - available here

Throughout summer, this is my staple for my legs- it's light, it's fresh and it makes my legs look naturally sun-kissed, which I obviously love, but I have seemingly re-kindled my love for it over the past few weeks. I find that the colder the weather is, the harder it is to keep my fake tan looking fresh. Well, a quick slap of this underneath my chosen tan and all seems well- and then when my tan is on it's last legs, I lather this on top and it makes it look like a fresh, dewy tan.

£10 - available here

The best thing about this moisturiser is the pump. I don't know why, but pumps make me feel happy. They're clean and simple, not to mention hygienic. This one in particular smells delicious and doesn't leave me looking for another application come noon.

How do you keep your body hydrated throughout this season?

HALLOWEEN: PRETTY FAWN MAKEUP

Good morning friends.

With Halloween fast approaching, I thought that it would be a perfect time to share some makeup tutorials with you all.

The first on my list is this fawn tutorial; I've seen it clogging up my Pinterest and Instagram for months and have been dying to have a go so with nothing on my schedule this afternoon, I figured that I'd have a crack at it.

I love the way that the nose, lips and eyebrows went; they remind me just of a cute little fawn, however the eyes (I tried to recreate someone else's idea- clearly didn't pay off). I would have liked to make them smaller and more dainty, however there's another 11 days until Halloween so there's plenty of time to perfect it!

I know that Halloween is all about the scary, the gory and the down-right terrifying, but I have a party this year that is more "for the kids" (isn't that what we always say?) and I wanted something that wasn't going to give them nightmares!

How do you like it?

Keep an eye out for the rest of my tutorials- I promise to include a couple of scarier ones!

BANISH AUTUMN: HAPPY SKIN

So we all know that this time of year can cause havoc with our skin, heaven knows that I do - I've only just got used to catering for summer skin (where does summer go?!).

Here are my top 3 picks for keeping your skin hydrated this autumn:

ORIGINAL SERUM £24.99 - available here

This has literally been my savior for the past couple of months. You put this on underneath your chosen moisturiser and it literally hydrates your skin like nothing else. I love that the tiniest bit goes a long, long way and this is definitely worth the slightly costly price tag.

MOISTURE BOOST SHEET MASKS £19,99 for 4 - available here

These are fantastic! They are so moist and have tonnes of product on them which makes them literally the best sheet masks that I've ever tried. Leave them on for as long as you can and then rub the remainder of the serum into your skin- your face will feel like nothing you've ever felt before.

£23 - available here

This is my go-to moisturiser for these darky, moody mornings. It instantly refreshes my skin, making it look and feel awake and leaves me with a healthy glow for the rest of the day. I love the zesty smell of this cream; it makes me want to eat it all up (but please don't!)

£16 - available here

I love how plump my skin is after using this and to say that it's been a staple in my evening skincare routine for roughly 5 months now, I still have roughly a quarter of the pot left.This makes my skin feel like heaven, especially when put on thick and left to sink in. Definitely a product that I can't wait to repurchase!

How is your Autumn skincare? Is there anything else that I should try?

NAILS INC: CLASSY FLORALS

USED FOR THIS LOOK:

Base polish: A & E base coat

Base colour: Colville Mews

Petals of flowers: Floral Street

Center of flowers: Carnaby Street

So for this week's nails, I fancied something quite girly and intricate yet something that still looks chic for work and doesn't clash with my chosen outfits.

I saw something similar to this design on Pinterest (of course- where else do you find fetching nail designs, right?!) - I think it was in relation to a Marc Jacobs campaign and I immediately knew that this was the look that I was having this week!

I took the above picture earlier on today whilst out with my family,  so it's not the most professional of shots, however I am sure that you get the gist.

How do you like my mani this week?

THREE THINGS TO DO THIS WEEKEND

1. CUTE UP YOUR HOUSE/BEDROOM/OFFICE SPACE:

I love HomeSense at the moment; it's jam-packed with stylish, kitch pieces that are gonna cute your home up and make it all homely ready for the quick-coming dark nights.
Find your nearest store here.

2. CLEAR OUT YOUR BAG:

Now, you may be one of those super-organised, clean-freak (sorry, I'm just NOT one of those), so I have to literally dedicate an hour each week (read that as month because I'm lazy and forgetful) where I clear out the sweet wrappers, scrunched up paper, lipstick lids and crumbs (ew) from out of my bag. I also make sure that my diary is set out for the week, giving myself a couple of tasks to do e.g. Make sure to book ___. This keeps me going and ensures that I'm half as organised as everyone else!

3. CATCH UP ON ANY MISSED PROGRAMS:

What else are weekends good for?!

This weekend I recommend Gogglebox, X-Factor, Corrie and Don't Tell The Bride.

What are you doing this weekend?
