Birchbox at Selfridges

You all know I'm a big fan of getting my Birchbox every month, and I've been wanting to get the Selfridges version since it launched last year in London. The Birchbox pop-up finally came to Manchester so I managed to go and make my own Birchbox! 

The pop up is currently at The Trafford Centre and you can choose 6 products to make your own box for £15. The selection of products is really good and I managed to get some of my favourite products and some new ones to try! 

I picked up the Caudalie vinoperfect serum as I've tried it before in a Birchbox and really loved it! I've also tried the Rituals shower gel before but in a different scent, so thought I'd give this one a try as I loved the formula! I couldn't resist a Laura Mercier lip gloss either - I love getting high end makeup products in my box, and this is in the shade Nectar - a lovely coral shade for spring (although it looks more red in the picture)

I'm really into doing my brows at the moment, so picked up a brow pencil to try in the lightest shade (you could choose your own shade!). I also went for the deep sleep + pillow spray as I like the original and have been struggling sleeping recently because of my cold :( 

I also picked up a prep and protect spray for my hair, as again I've tried it before and really liked it! 

I think the Birchbox at Selfridges is a really good idea - especially if you want to try Birchbox without committing to a subscription! I loved choosing my own products too as you can make sure you don't get anything you won't use. I'd love to see Birchbox pop-ups more and be able to create different boxes - but if you can't get to one, you can pick up the products or a Birchbox subscription online here!

Spring Outfit Inspiration

Boohoo bomber , shirt, jeans & espadrilles 

Apologies that it's been 2 similar posts in a row - there'll be some outfits coming next week - I've just been really busy!! 

Anyway, today I'm sharing a Spring outfit idea from boohoo.com! I'm still loving my bargain khaki bomber from Boohoo, so thought I'd create an outfit around their new badge bomber! I've included my staple black skinny jeans, a monochrome shirt and some classic Chanel-style espadrilles (that are a fraction of the price!) 

I hope you're all having a great Easter weekend - I'll have a new video up tomorrow too! x

March Birchbox

March Birchbox

Another month, another Birchbox. I really like Birchbox (as I've said loads of time) so I thought I'd share what I got in mine this month! 

This Works Deep Sleep Pillow Spray - I've tried this and used it before and I really like it. It's great if you struggle to get to sleep as it's a relaxing scent. I also like it if I'm feeling a bit ill. 

Arrow Boost Color Enhancing lip balm - I love trying out new lip balms and this is a full size sample worth £11. It has a lovely mint scent and feels really moisturising on the lips. I like this for natural makeup days.

Model Co More Brows - I really like using brow mascaras and normally just stick to the maybelline one so I'm excited to try out something different. This is also full size too - worth £13!  I have the lightest shade which is perfect for me - make sure you do set your preferences if you sign up to Birchbox so that you get the right shades in products! 

Hydraluron moisture boosting mask - I've never tried anything from Hydraluron even though they're a pretty popular brand in the blogging world. I'm excited to give this a go next time I'm having a bit of a relax! 

Number 4 Blow dry lotion - I've tried products from number 4 before and have really liked them so I'm excited to try this blow dry lotion. I'm also a big fan of leave-in treatments so was happy to get this in my box! 

Amika Nourishing mask - A sample of an intense hair mask t help with split ends, dryness and repair damage. This sounds amazing to me as I have quite dry hair (although it's in a lot better condition than it was!) 

So that's everything in my Birchbox this month - I do think it's really good value and a good way to try new products. I'm also saving some of the minis now for my holiday! 

Fitness Haul

Hi everyone - sorry that there hasn't been any posts or videos this week - I've had such a stressful week and literally just haven't had time or motivation for anything. I will be posting again this week, but it may be a little while before my schedule is back to normal - make sure you're following me so that you don't miss any posts!

Anyway, this is a fitness haul I uploaded last week - I've been really getting into the gym recently (it's great for de-stressing) and I bought a few things to wear so thought I'd do a haul!

I hope you've all had a good week! x

Still Winter

H&M jumper 

Charlotte Simone scarf 

Topshop jeans 

Jack Wills boots 

It's still really cold - only last week we were snowed in - in March! Winter fashion is definitely my favourite though, and this jumper is super soft and warm. I picked it up in this colour and cream as both were on offer at £7 each in store a few weeks ago when I got them. the rest of the outfit is really simple and standard for me, although I've not worn my Charlotte Simone scarves for a couple of weeks!
