Flat Update

As I mentioned in my previous post I have been a bit quiet over here. If you watch my Youtube videos then you'll know that I recently bought a new flat - which is beyond exciting and exhausting at the same time. They say buying a place and moving is the most stressful thing you do in your life and I cannot agree more. 

Not only am I dealing with getting the flat ready but it's also the busiest time of year for my work AND we're understaffed so everything is just that little bit more hectic.

Of course, I'm not really complaining as I'm extremely lucky to be in this situation but the fact I've spent more time at Homebase than my own bed is starting to ware me down. I'm going in to work early, leaving hours late and spending all evenings at the new flat trying to get everything sorted on time. 

The hardest bit I think is the fact that I'm doing this on my own and there's just so many more things to do/pay for/deal with than anyone has ever mentioned! I feel very clueless about the whole thing and do wonder how I managed to get this far all right.

I can't wait until it's all sorted and I'm finally in! Then my posts will be back to their regular uploads and I can finally breathe...

Apologies if this sounded like I'm moaning but sometimes you just gotta let it out!

August's Glossybox and Birchbox

So I've been a bit quiet over here recently and there may be a post about why but I thought for now I would come back with one of my favourites posts...Glossybox and Birchbox unboxing!



Here's what I got in August's Glossybox and Birchbox;

Glossybox


  • SportFX - Time Out Face Mist + Fix - full size - RRP £5.99
  • Model Laucher - Safari Sun Bronzer - full size - RRP £16.50
  • Valquer - Ice Hair Mask, Total Repair - RRP £14.99 for the full size
  • Batiste - 2in1 Dry Shampoo & Conditioner - RRP £4.49 for the full size
  • Rodial - Suede Lips - full size - RRP £22.00
  • Purelei - Hair tie



Birchbox



  • Spectrum Collections - A05 Brush - RRP £59.99 for full set
  • LOC - One and Done Shadow Stick in Rock Steady - full size - RRP £8.00
  • Number 4 - Sugar Texturising Spray - RRP £20.00 for the full size
  • Merci Handy - Antibacterial Hand Cleansing Gel - full size - RRP £2.90
  • Huygens - Supernature Cream - RRP £25.00 for the full size



Both these boxes are so nice and strangely suit each other very well! Once again they've both provided products I've never tried before from brands I've never heard of before which is exactly why I love these boxes so much. And there's also products which I already know I'll love (Loc shadow stick, I'm talking about you!). 

As always I'll let you know what I get on with best and what I maybe don't like as much. If you got any beauty subscription boxes this month please let me know what your favourite products were that you received!
