Guys the Anastasia BH Moonchild Glow Kit gives me life. I have wanted to get my hands on it for ages and I know it'll be under my tree this year. For real, if you want to make a makeup addict happy, get this glow kit! Especially if they have the classic pale Irish skin because they will still be killing it with these shades!

Any makeup lover will know that washing your makeup brushes literally means spending the whole night in your bathroom with Netflix and your brushes. I absolutely hate waiting for them to dry and love Sigma's innovative Dry'n Shape Tower because it speeds up the drying time and helps keep the brush shape!
The Dry'n Shape Tower is available from Sigma for €65.


Another brush set, this time from Zoeva that I have been lusting over for ages. The Luxe Prime Set has a range of face and eye brushes that look absolutely gorgeous and would make any makeup lover happy!

Gift Guide For Him


Hey guys!

We're nearing the end of November and the holidays are just around the corner so I decided to do a mini gift guide for him! If you're stuck on what to buy your man, family member or friend, I hope my guide gives you some inspiration!

Topman Grey Mark Mini Roll Neck Long Sleeve T-Shirt 

I love Topman and think this t-shirt is fab and a perfect little gift for anyone (especially if you want a say in how they dress!).

This t-shirt is available in different sizes online and in-store for €20.

Calvin Klein Boxers - 3 Pack

Again, an easy option to go with as they will almost always be loved. Calvin Klein boxers range in style so be sure to buy the right ones!

I came across a pack of 3 that loved on Amazon for €32!

CK One 


Okay I am in love with CK One and will literally try to buy it for everyone because then I can be surrounded by it (and occasionally steal it). I love the combination of papaya in the top notes and nutmeg in the middle notes, it's heavenly!

CK One is currently on offer in Boots for €25 (100ml).

FIFA 17

I know FIFA is on my brother's list this year and probably a lot of other guys! I personally don't see the appeal and think there are a lot of more interesting games out there but I'm sure my brother doesn't see the appeal in buying me makeup!

FIFA is available from Smyths for €55.

Romantic Break for Two


If you can't figure out what to get your man for Christmas than escapes.ie is perfect for you! You can choose a one or two night stay in hotels around the country for a discounted price! It's like a gift for you as well and who wouldn't love a romantic break?

Check out their website for all of their offers!

Do you have anything you would add to my gift guide?

Claire's Christmas Gift Guide


EIGHT DAYS UNTIL DECEMBER 25TH!

So I can officially say Merry Christmas to everybody!
If you've left your Christmas shopping a little late (I think we all have one or two gifts left to buy!), here are my top picks from the Claire's Accessories Christmas Collection 2014. They're perfect for best friends, sisters, cousins and even mums! My list could go on for days so I put my top five gifts in this post and the link to the whole Christmas collection is below!

All these gifts are very affordable and you can buy them online at http://www.claires.co.uk/christmas/style/fcp-category/list?resetFilters=true
or in your local Claire's store!

My top pick this year has to be the Eiffel Tower Jewellery Gift Set. This is a two piece gift set, a necklace and a bracelet. The necklace has a mini eiffel tour, a pink heart and a small postcard that says 'I love you'. The bracelet has five charms, an eiffel tour, a small pink heart, a postcard, a pink ribbon and a small silver gem. If, like me, you love Paris then you'll love this gift set! The two only cost €9.99.


Where would a girl be without a compact mirror? The Silver Glitter Heart Mirror is a must-have this Christmas. This cute mirror will fit in most clutches for the party season and is a steal at €4.99!

Earrings make any outfit.  These adorable Tinsel Wreath Bell Drop Earrings will go with any outfit you have planned for the Christmas season! They can even be given as Secret Santa gifts :), especially as they only cost €4.

The cold winter weather means hats are a given. The Cream Oversized Pom-Pom Beanie is perfect for crisp winter days. This chunky knit has pink and grey details throughout and costs €14.99.

Lip balms are essential for winter. The cold weather brings chapped lips to new heights! I love trying out new lip balms and this year, the Candy Cane Lip Balm was definitely a favourite! It smells divine and is the perfect stocking filler for anyone or even as a little treat to yourself! This festive-themed lip balm is available for €2.50 in Claire's stores.



I hope you enjoyed my top picks from Claire's Christmas collection,

Merry Christmas everyone!
