Bonfire Night Birthday Wishlist | #Blogtober day 1


I've seen a lot of these wish lists around but I've never put one together myself. If you follow me on social media you'll know that my birthday is coming up on the 5th of November (Yeah, I'm a proud bonfire night baby!) 

One of the things I plan to do is have a birthday shopping spree. I've put together a list of all the absolute gems that I'm hoping to get my mitts on. 

I'll be sharing elsewhere on social media as well as on here, all the delights I've treated myself to after my birthday as well as what I got up to and I'll also do a review of the products too. 

So here goes, grab some tea and browse my birthday wish list:

Skincare products:










Haircare products:

Hope you enjoy Bonfire night as much as I will! I guess I was lucky to be born on the 5th of November with all the fireworks, bonfires and people having a good time. Make sure you stay safe and check bonfires before you light them for any small creatures that may be hiding in there. Keep all pets safe!

As always, thanks for checking out my latest post, for all the support, lovely comments on here & social media, it's much appreciated! 

See you in the next post x 


September Favourites 2018

 It's that time of the month again when the 'favourites' post goes up! This month has gone so fast and in just a few days we'll be in October. 

So what have I been loving in September? Have a browse below to see what brands/products made the cut this month.
If you follow me here or elsewhere on social media you'll have seen me raving and posting pictures of the 'Perfect 10 primer serum' and the 'Prismatic duo lipstick' from Emani Vegan Cosmetics
I talked all about them in this post  if you would like to know more about my thoughts on the products.

For more information on Emani and to keep up with their latest products/news, you can find them on:


 As you most probably know, I'm a big fan of Kiehl's and they've made another appearance in my favourites for this month with their amazing Midnight Recovery Eye cream. Their 'Soy milk and honey body butter' featured in my August favourites and I also wrote a post about my favourite Autumn and Winter essential skincare products from Kiehl's which you can find here 

You can also find Kiehl's on their:


 When I was contacted about reviewing a subscription box from The Spice Pioneer I wasn't sure what to expect. I knew there would obviously be spices included but I'd never tried a spice subscription box before.

The Spice Pioneer monthly subscription boxes deliver a securely packed box full of exotic spices from all over the world, together with information about the spices and menu's where you can recreate a different dish for up to 4 people, from all over the world.

I had such fun using the spices (which smelled divine) to create dishes I had never tried before from Turkey to Jamaica. 

You can sign up to a subscription or treat yourself or a friend to a one off box as a gift! Perfect for that foodie in your life and a great unique idea for a present.

 Now that we are officially in Autumn it's time to stock up on the comfy socks and slippers! I'm a big fan of slipper boots to keep my tootsies and ankles warm. 

Lazy Dogz do an amazing range of slippers to suit everyone and all budgets. Their slippers are great quality, securely packaged and fast free delivery. And if that wasn't good enough, they also donate £1 of every pair of slippers sold to Manchester Dogs Home

 I tried my first one of these the other day, the much anticipated 'Bonfire Spiced Latte' from Costa Coffee 

Even now I'm in the mood for another one. Check out my thoughts and what the new 'Bonfire Spiced' Autumn range includes here 
 Another one of my popular posts was my review of Dotty About Paper I just knew that people would fall in love with their beautiful stationery like I did.

I'm still obsessed with the lovely pink polka dot Pinking Out Loud notebook and the Sweet Sherbet Dreams - Luxury List Pad

Bonfire spiced latte | @CostaCoffee


Being a Bonfire night baby, when I heard that Costa had a new exciting 'Bonfire Spiced' range which included a 'Bonfire Spiced Latte', I just knew I had to try it!

The Bonfire Spiced range contains delicious drinks such as:

- Bonfire Spice Latte
- Bonfire Hot Chocolate
- Cold Brew Coffee

All the drinks contain delicious notes of Caramel toffee, toasted spices topped with caramel vermicelli.

I treated my tastebuds to the 'Bonfire Spiced Latte' and before I even had a sip the smell of the spices were gorgeous. 

From the first sip I was hooked! It's the perfect combination of sweet (but not too sweet), spicy with the right blend of caramel. 

I absolutely love it! I may have to put my favourite vanilla latte drink to the side for the time being and treat myself to this for my Costa visits!. 

Have you tried any of the 'Bonfire Spiced' range yet? what do you think? Leave a comment below or tweet me
