Homeware Haul - Part 2

This post is probably not what you were expecting today as it isn't a reflection of 2017 and my hopes and dreams for 2018 but instead a part 2 to my homeware haul. The biggest change for me in 2017 was buying a flat and moving out and so I feel it's only right to finish what I'd started with the hauls before the year is over. 

Following on from this post here, where I shared a haul with what I got for my new flats kitchen and bedroom, I thought I would now shared the second part to my homeware haul. 

This includes items for the living room and bathrooms and gives the first sneak peak of my flat! Click the link below to go straight over to the video or search TheLittleLassies on YouTube to find my channel and see all my other videos too.

Let me know what you think of everything I got and if you have any idea's on ways I can use things in my flat then please leave them in the comments below.

Oh and.....HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!

Thanks for reading

Empties #20

It’s been SO long since my last empties post as I found that I was just repeating myself having used up the same products over and over - I’m definitely a creature of habit! I’m now trying to use up more products which I already have rather than buy ones I always use which means I’ve got a few empties which are new to post about.

The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing Factors

I got caught up in the hype of The Ordinary products and bought 3 a few months ago. This is the first one I’ve finished and I’m actually slightly disappointed. I had heard nothing but good reviews about the brand but my skin just did not take to this well. I found it didn’t actually bring much to the table and didn’t leave my skin feeling as moisturised and nourished as I would’ve liked. I do still like the packaging though and know this works well for many other people.

Clinique Take The Day Off Cleansing Balm

I was very excited when I received this in my September Birchbox as I’d wanted to try this for so long. My favourite part of my day is taking my make-up off and my favourite way to do that is with a Cleansing Balm. This was SO lovely to use and literally just melted the make-up off my skin. It was so effortless and really left my skin feeling amazing afterwards. This small pot lasted me a long time as a little goes a long way so I think the full size, although a lot more expensive than other options, may just be worth it!

Simple Hydrating Booster

This has become a new staple in my skincare routine. I use this after I’ve cleansed and toned and before I moisturise. It is exactly what it says, a hydration boost for the skin which is in a gel formula. Again, I love using this as it’s so effortless, goes on the skin so well and sinks in quickly. An absolute must during the winter months.

This Works Super Sleep Spray

I think I have mentioned this product before but I love using it so much that I thought it was worth another mention. I go through spells of really bad sleep and use to be such a bad sleeper that I now have a few techniques to help me nod off and this is one of them. It relaxes your body ready for the night and helps you fall into a much deeper sleep. Therefore, I wake up feeling so much more refreshed and ready for my day. 

I’ve been thinking about doing a post on my other techniques to help me sleep so let me know if that’s something you’d like to read and I’ll make sure to get straight onto it.

Thanks for reading

December Glossybox

Its that time of the month again....time to share what I got in my Glossybox and as it’s the Christmas box it was always going to be a good one! Not only did this box come with all 5 items being full sized (!!!!!) it came with chocolate too, bonus!

Here’s what I got;

Naobay Equilibria Gel to Milk Cleanser - £15.99

I don’t think I’ve ever tied a gel to cream cleanser so very much looking forward to trying this out. It’s also come at a good time as I’m about to run out of my current cleanser. I haven’t tried this brand before either but on first impressions (judging by the packaging) it’s looking good!

Laqa & Co Cloud Lips - £12.70

Just look at this packaging! Normally I don’t get my lippy out in public to top up but with this beautiful rose gold tube I’ll be getting it out all the time. This is a very beautiful nude/pinky/you’re-lips-but-better shade so if it lasts all day like it promises this may become my winter go to.

Profusion Runway Eye Collection - £3.75

These shades are just beautiful and definitely for the party season. I think I could actually use very shade and I’m most exciting about the shimmery navy which I think ties a nice twist on the classic smokey eye. Looking at the formula it seems quite powdery but with a good eye primer it may just be alright!

Steve Laurent Precision Tip Eyeliner - £18

Another rose gold packaged beauty. I haven’t opened it up yet as I don’t want to run the risk of drying it out when I’ve got another on to go but I love the packaging so much! It’s also so small and light that itwould be ideal for an on the go make-up bag.

Ecodenta Extra Black Whitening Toothpaste with Black Charcoal & Teavigo - £4.49

I think the world is going charcoal made at the moment as there just seems to be so many health/beauty benefits to it. Accordingly to this, charcoal is a natural tooth whitener so I’m all on board for trying this out. Anything to make my teeth whiter while being natural and therefore kinda to my teeth is an absolute win win situation.

And that’s my box! Genuinely really excited about trying all the products out, especially the black toothpaste as I can only imagine how weird that’s going to look. I also can’t believe the value of all the products (£54.93) when all I spent was around £13!! 

If you got a beauty box this months as well and have written a post about it then let me know below as I love reading and finding out about new boxes/products!
