Irish Blogger Conference


It's summer! I am so happy that school is finally over. I am back to blogging twice a week now!

So yesterday was the Irish Bloggers' Conference 2015 in the Radisson Blu Hotel on Golden Lane in Dublin. I went with my friend Siobhan and it was fab! There were so many amazing speakers and I got so many tips on how I could improve my blog.

We also got a fabulous goodie bag full of products worth €80. 




 So there was a lot of Wet n Wild in the bag which I love. Wet n Wild is an American brand and I am in love with their brow kits!

The nail varnish I got is E4923 - Creative Control. I don't usually wear sparkly nail varnish because of how hard it is to take off but it's pink so I definitely will.

I got a balm stain in the shade E129 - Nudist Colony (I like the name) which is great because I am obsessed with nude lips at the moment.

I also got an idol eyes cream eyeshadow pencil in the shade Graphite. It is perfect for dark smokey eyes!

The last Wet n Wild product I got is a coloricon eye liner in the shade Sky Blue. I don't really use pencil eyeliner at all so keep an eye out on my social media - I may have a giveaway with a few more products soon!


 Nails (www.dublinnails.com) gave us a really cool blogger card that entitles you to 15% off any treatment and it's valid until May next year so I cannot wait to get my nails done soon,


Declaré were there on the day and I've heard their products are great for sensitive skin so I cannot wait to try these two out! I got a tonifying lotion and a cleansing milk in my bag - my skin is in for a real treat!


Physicians Formula launched in Ireland and I am so happy to finally get my hands of some of their products!  I got their mineral powder and their beauty balm concealer (in medium/deep so I think it's too dark for me). Thanks to dolledup.ie for the physicians formula goodies !


I also got the Fuschia Dramatise eyeshadow palette. I love this palette because there are brown shades in it which is my favourite eyeshadow colour to work with!


I love Burt's Bees lipbalms, they're so hydrating! Obviously I was excited to see a Burt's Bees product in my bag and even happier when I saw it was a nude lip gloss. I got the lip gloss in the shade 221 - Sunny Day


Who doesn't love free coffee? Thanks so much to Bewley's for a tin of their Palmyra coffee!


Wholefoods.ie is Ireland's health hub for natural products, food and healthcare, they were kind enough to give us a bottle of pure tissue oil and a can of sparkling juice - I got lemon and ginger!

Thank you so much to Emma O'Farrell, Cool Events, everyone who donated their products for the goodie bags and every single person involved in the organisation of the event! I had a great time and cannot wait until the next one!

Were you at the conference?
I'm also looking to do a few collaboration posts soon if anyone is interested!
Let me know in the comments below :)

Ciara,

Slendertox Tea have been kind enough to send me their 14 Day Teatox to try out and review!
I received the package last week and was planning on starting the teatox today as it suggests you start on a weekend or day off, in case of side effects. Unfortunately I slept in until lunch today so I have decided to start my teatox this Saturday.

- Aid weightloss.
-  Colon cleansing.
- Metabolism efficiency.
- Increased energy.

The 14 Day Teatox includes a daytox and a sleeptox. You use one teabag in the morning and one every other night for the duration of the teatox.

The ingredients in the Daytox are:
- Hawthorn grain.
- Red bean.
- Sterling bean.
- Radish leaf.
- Camellia seed.
- Camellia flower.
- Green tea.
- Fennel seeds.

The ingredients in the Sleeptox are:
-Valerian Root. 
Large hawthorn.
- Red bean.
- Sterling bean.
- Green tea.
- Radish leaf.
- Camellia seed.
- Fennel seeds.
- Camellia flower.

I'm so excited to start my teatox on Saturday and I will have a follow-up post with my results after the two weeks!

Ciara,

xoxo.
