It wasn't long ago that I wrote about my favourite <a href="http://eatplayshoplove.blogspot.co.uk/2014/07/my-most-used-real-techniques-brushes.html">Real Techniques brushes</a> and while I still love them, my sister bought me this gorgeous set of brushes from <a href="https://www.love-makeup.co.uk/zoeva-classic-makeup-brush-p-5844.html">Zoeva</a> for my birthday and I have to say it was love at first use.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo_zpsc4756e85.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo_zpsc4756e85.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The Zoeva Classic Brush Set contains 8 brushes for your face and eyes and comes in this rather sophisticated leather look clutch bag. It even has it's own dust bag that's how posh it is!</div>

<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo3_zpsec6b0597.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo3_zpsec6b0597.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I think the brushes look super sophisticated with their black handles and I like that each brush says on it exactly what its for. The set contains the following: Luxe Highlighter Brush 105, Stippling Brush 125, Cream Cheek Brush 128, Soft Definer Brush 227, Concealer Buffer Brush 142, Crease Brush 228, Pencil Brush 230, and the Wing Liner Brush 317</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am impressed all round with these brushes but I have to say there are a few that stand out above the rest. First of all the stippling brush is amazing for applying foundation, I love the light and flawless finish it gives. the concealer buffer brush is absolutely perfect for getting concealer in every nook and cranny, its great for the around the nose area.I am also really enjoying the Lux Highlighter brush, this works perfectly with my Mac Soft and Gentle highlighter to give my cheeks the right amount of glow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo1_zps1c7498b1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo1_zps1c7498b1.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Classic Brush set retails for £52.95 and while that does sound quite pricey it actually works out at just over £6 a brush which is a complete bargain. Zoeva also do a <a href="https://www.love-makeup.co.uk/zoeva-rose-golden-luxury-brush-p-6023.html">Rose Gold</a> Collection and although I don't 'need' them they are beautiful and owning the classic set has just made me want them even more as I'm sure the quality is just as good.</div>

Although it’s now pretty much turned to winter here in
England (yes it’s still August) we did manage to squeeze in a few day trips and
enjoy the sun while it lasted. A few weeks ago my boyfriend and I went to
<a href="http://www.longleat.co.uk/">Longleat Safari and Adventure Park</a> and to be honest I didn't expect it to be
half as good as it was. Obviously the sun helped but the whole place was just stunning
and peaceful.<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/longleat/photo2_zpsfa376550.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/longleat/photo2_zpsfa376550.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I love animals so you can imagine my excitement every time I
saw something that moved. I will warn you now there are a lot of animal
pictures here but it’s nothing compared to the amount that I actually took!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
First of all apologies for the lack of posts
recently, life has once again taken over but it’s all good.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Today I wanted to talk about a healthy lifestyle. I am
always trying to be healthy and make sensible choices when it comes to food and
the majority of times I am successful. However there are obviously times when
things slip, I’m only human after all and for me usually the slip happens at a
weekend. Whether it’s going out for a few drinks with the girls, date night
with my boyfriend or just general laziness, my hard work for the week has
usually been undone by Sunday night when I’m feeling horribly sluggish and
stupidly sorry for myself. Then the whole cycle re starts Monday morning. I’m
hoping some of you can relate to this.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Anyway to help keep me on track I have decided to create a
health <b><a href="http://followgram.me/charliesprogress">Instagram</a></b> account to try and keep me motivated throughout the weekend
and not ruin everything by eating a bag of chips that I don’t event really
want. Of course I’m not going to give up all treats or stop socialising but I just
want to try and make as many heathy choices as possible meaning that if I do go
out for a curry Saturday night I won’t have that horrible feeling of guilt
after.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The above picture is some of the yummy creations that I have
been posted on my Instagram, you can find me over at <a href="http://followgram.me/charliesprogress"><b>Charliesprogress</b></a> if you
fancy a peak. I have found since starting this account that not only has kept me more motivated but also a made bit
more adventurous with what I eat so I’m not just posting the same old salad every
day. I like to make my food as colourful as possible so that means as much
veggies as I can pack in.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I’ve also started experimenting more with breakfasts at the
weekend, hello flourless pancakes! I also have been posting my cheat meals so
you can see the pizza I ate when we went for an Italian and the incredible
steak from last Fridays date night.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

I’m not sure if this post has been of any interest to anyone
but it’s something that I have been enjoying doing lately and hopefully it
might inspire some people to be a bit more creative with cooking.<o:p></o:p></div>

You know when people post pictures on Instagram of
picturesque villages, beautiful flowers and little shops filled with cute
little trinkets? Well I absolutely felt
like I had stepped in to one of those photographs when we visited Bourton on
the water in the Cotswolds.<o:p></o:p></div>

My boyfriend planned this trip as a surprise for my birthday and I had honestly never heard of this place before and I couldn't
believe how perfect it was when we pulled up.<o:p></o:p></div>

The stream runs all the way through the village and you can
go in for a paddle, I will warn you though the water was freezing! More fool me
for thinking it would be warmer because the sun was out.<o:p></o:p></div>

So I am now pretty sure that I am ready to retire and move here but apparently I have a fair few more years to go until that can happen. At least now I know this little gem is here and I will definitely be visiting again.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I've only recently posted about my travel make up bag but thanks to the power of twitter I won this gorgeous wash bag from <a href="http://www.orlakiely.com/uk/">Orla Kiely</a> and just had to share it with you. My boyfriend has also arranged a suprised few days away for my birthday tomorrow so it's the perfect time to use it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo5_zpseeb8771c.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo5_zpseeb8771c.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a>The pattern is gorgeous, it almost has a 70's vibe to it. It's also really spacious the main compartment is huge with 3 smaller zipped sections. The best bit is that it has a hook in built making it perfect to hang on a bathroom door, or draw keeping everything in reach and still organised.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Looking into Orla Kiely a bit more they do some seriously gorgeous house hold things. I fell in love with one of the bed spreads but unfortunately they are a bit out of my price range. A girl can dream though!</div>

When It's sunny in England you have to make the most of it, it's been a long time coming but we finally got round to having our first barbecue of the year. To be honest we weren't that prepared as it was a bit of an impulse decision so a quick dash to the shops was needed...obviously everyone else had the same idea but we still managed to get some yummy bits.<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20life/photo1_zps8148f67e.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20life/photo1_zps8148f67e.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>

It's not often I get to dress up all smart but I don't half get excited when I do! I went along to a charity ball in my town which was all about raising money and picking a carnival queen in the process. This was the perfect excuse for me to treat myself to a new posh dress.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I usually find AX Paris are good for dresses for this type of occasion and they didn't let me down. Sometimes tight dresses can easily show curves in all the wrong places however the fit, length and material of this dress is all spot on.</div>

The evening was so much fun, filled with competitions <strike>a lot</strike> of prosecco and a fashion show showcasing the most beautiful wedding dresses. To top it off I even ended up winning £1000 for the charity of my choice! I was pretty blown away as I never win anything, and after much deliberation with myself I decided to donate it to Mind so I feel pretty good right now.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Since starting my blog I have pretty much transformed the
way that I apply my make up. To think I just used to apply my foundation with
my fingers and eye shadows with those little spongy applicators is a bit
horrifying, anyway let’s not think about those dark days and focus on what I use
today.</div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo2_zps68ad04f0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo2_zps68ad04f0.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make up brushes can be expensive. I for one was shocked when
I found that one single brush can cost at least £20 so when the Real Techniques
Brushes came on the scene with great review after great review I knew these
were the ones for me. <o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
First of all I love that they are colour coded, Yellow for
complexion, Pink for finish, purple for eyes and White are the duo fibre range.
They also state on them what they are for so no faffing around looking for your
578754 brush, maybe it’s just me but I just find numbers a bit off putting.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
So here are my top picks:<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo1_zps952bea44.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo1_zps952bea44.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Duo Fibre Face Brush:</b> this feels so soft! I use this to
apply my powder and set my foundation and concealer. I don’t like a heavy,
cakey look so using this gives me the light coverage I require to matte my oily
areas and still leaving a natural finish.<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Buffing Brush:</b> this is the most amazing brush to apply your foundation
with. It effortlessly buffs your foundation evenly into the skin leaving no
streaks. You are guaranteed a flawless finish with this.<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Blush Brush:</b> I've never had a brush that is shaped like this
before and it seriously feels like it was made for my cheeks. I'm sure it does
this for most people haha, but the angle is perfect for adding that rosy glow
and is so easy to blend, it never seems to grab too much product.<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Brow Brush:</b> I used this as you would expect, to define my
brows. I like how easy this brush makes it to get the desired precision looking
brows.<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
I use these brushes on a daily basis and haven’t yet found
the need to purchase higher end set.<o:p></o:p></div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

your make up?<o:p></o:p></div>

When I think of paradise I picture white sand clear waters and
a gorgeous blue sky. Well if you have the same image as me then Xcaret is the place
for you! Xcaret is a natural Sanctuary and this was one of the excursions on
our recent Mexico holiday that I was most looking forward to and it really didn't
disappoint.<o:p></o:p></div>

The bit we were most excited about was swimming with sharks! My boyfriend is a big fan of the film Jaws and I think that it made him quite nervous. I never imagined this would be something I would do but it was an amazing experience, they are such powerful creatures so I'm glad I lived to tell the tale!</div>

Being quite tall I don't really wear heels as much as I would like, or as much as my boyfriend would like me to but these mid chunky heels are a nice compromise and they don't have me moaning every five minutes that my feet hurt! They also make me feel a bit western and who secretly doesn't want to be a cowgirl?</div>

So my holiday post is a bit later than anticipated but
seriously I had a lot of pictures to sort through! As there is so many pictures I've decided to break them down into smaller chucks starting today with the most
fabulous hotel I've ever stayed in the Hard Rock Hotel Cancun!</div>

My boyfriend is a big fan of the Hard Rock brand so it was pretty much his choice but as soon as he showed me the website I was sold. From the guitar shaped driveway to the white sand beach the hotel was everything I expected and so much more.</div>

My poor little blog has been recently missing in action; do
you ever have times when you just lose motivation for things? I love blogging
but sometimes it’s just nice to have a break not worrying that I get my post up
in time. I would rather have a break rather than force a post I want happy
with. Anyway here are a few pretty pictures of the little things that have been
making me happy.<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/1515113_298610683653880_1684159775_n_zps8e68bfd1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/1515113_298610683653880_1684159775_n_zps8e68bfd1.jpg" height="640" width="640" /></a></div>

I was a bit late to the <a href="http://www.tanyaburr.co.uk/">Tanya Burr</a> cosmetics party, not because
I didn't want the products just because they were so hard to get my hands on! I
finally found a <a href="http://www.superdrug.com/icat/tanyaburr">Superdrug</a> with a full selection and I must say I did get a
little bit excited.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After much swatching I decided to go for ‘Afternoon Tea’ as
it seems the perfect colour for everyday wear and looks lovely on a summer
evening. I don’t like to wear too much of a bold lip at work as I think it can
look a bit much so this is usually my go to shade.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am so impressed with the quality; it’s not sticky at all
which was a mega bonus for me, there nothing worse than your hair getting
caught in your lip gloss! The colour pay off is gorgeous and it lasted on my
lips a lot longer than expected.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I also took this on holiday with me and I can report it
stood the test of the Mexico heat in the evenings.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Since being back from holiday I have also picked up ‘Picnic
in the park’ and I'm sure it won’t be the last one I purchase.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am so pleased for Tanya, this is definitely a product that
I would be proud to release and I really hope she expands her cosmetic range.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What do you think? Have you tried Tanya Burr cosmetics?<o:p></o:p></div>

<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20life/photo96_zps558413b0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20life/photo96_zps558413b0.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
So not to state the obvious but Mexico is HOT, like really
hot and some days I was pretty sure I was melting but that’s ok because it was
the most beautiful place I’ve ever been to. I’m in the middle of going through
all of my photos to put into posts but in the mean time I have put together a
list of the products that saved me while I was out there.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo97_zps17b20395.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo97_zps17b20395.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Origins Drink Up Over Night Mask </b>– God I love this product it’s
the most amazing thing for keeping your skin hydrated and in the Mexico heat it
was definitely needed, I used this every night before I went to sleep and my
skin definitely thanked me for it.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo98_zps51ed1259.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo98_zps51ed1259.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b>Aussie</b> is usually my go to hair brand for holidays and the
fact that they make their 3 Minute Miracle conditioners in miniature is genius.
You leave the conditioner on your hair for 3 minutes after washing and it
leaves your hair feeling soft and healthy, which is just what you need after a
day in the pool or the sea.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo99_zps791bf304.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo99_zps791bf304.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Aftersun is usually a tricky one for me as sometimes they
break my skin out in rashes. I’m all for being protected but when it makes your
skin horrible and blotchy it’s not really the sexy beach look I am for. I
picked up the <b>Soltan</b> intensely moisturising after sun from Boots as it said it
contained shea butter and almond oil and it works like body butter. This was an
absolute life saver of a product it smells amazing and really soaked into the
skin reducing the burn and leaving my skin super soft. I will definitely be
grabbing a pot of this on all of my future holidays.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo100_zpsa05716e1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo100_zpsa05716e1.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know deodorant isn't the most glamorous of products but
the fact is we all need it. I went for the <b>Sure Maximum Protection</b> which is
quite expensive for a deodorant coming in at about £5 but it was honestly worth
every penny as it lasted all day, I would have spread this all over my forehead
if it was possible because it really did reduce the amount of sweat (nice) and
kept me fresh.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo102_zpse463b84d.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo102_zpse463b84d.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I used the <b>Clinique</b> Dramatically Different Moisturising Gel every
morning to give my skin that little extra boost. As it’s a gel its not too
heavy but still manages to get deep into my skin and prepare it for the day.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo101_zps289f515b.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/blog%20products/photo101_zps289f515b.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Last of all is the<b> DrJart Waterfuse BB Cream</b>. I try and wear
as little make up on holiday as possible, 1 to let my skin breath and 2 because
the majority of it just melts off. In the evenings however I do like to make an
effort and this is the best thing that I have found which gives coverage, hiding
all the burnt red bits but is still light and lets your skin breath.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
What products are your saviours on holiday? Will you be
taking any of these with you this year?<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
When you go on holiday the actual flying part really is a
love / hate thing especially when you are going long haul, you’re so excited to
get there but 9 hours in one seat with no leg room isn’t exactly relaxing. I like
to try and make my flight as enjoyable as possible so a little pamper session
is as luxurious as it gets.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
I don’t tend to wear makeup when I fly as its usually
ridiculous a clock in the morning and ain’t nobody got time for that but if the
eye bags are huge a bit of concealer always does the trick.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
I start by sweeping a face wipe across my face, I know a lot
of people would shudder at the thought of face wipes but they are pretty much
made for flights and I wouldn’t travel without them.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
On to the good stuff, I start with a generous spritz of<b>
Caudalie Beauty Elixir</b>. I still love the scent of this I find it really soothing
and it helps me to relax. I apply this all the way through the flight when I feel
my skin needs refreshing.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Next up I will apply the <b>Origins Drink Up Mask</b>. I feel like I
talk about this all the time at the minute but it really does live up to the
hype, it sinks into the skin and instantly hydrates it. Not to mention this
also smells gorgeous.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Another one of my favourite products of the moment is the <b>Origins
Ginzing eye Cream</b>, I dot this around my under eye area to brighten it up and
hide how tired I am.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
For my lips I went for my holiday hero which is the <b>Palmers
Cocoa Butter lip balm</b> which just gives me amazingly soft lips. My lips always
chap when the weather suddenly changes so I will always have this with me when I
go away.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">
Last up is the trusty <b>Collection Lasting Perfection
Concealer</b> which I tend to apply just before we land to try and hide the ‘I've
just spent 9 hours on a plane bags’.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"> I love writing posts
like this because it means my holiday is almost here! I actually really enjoy
sorting through all of my favourite bits and deciding what to take with me and
I find it really highlights the products I can’t bear to be without.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><b>Skincare:</b> <b>Clinique</b> was the first high end skincare brand I
ever purchased but drifted away after giving into hype from Liz Earle and Emma
Hardie, so I’m really excited to use these little miniature I got with a recent
purchase. <b>Origins</b> had to make an appearance
the Drink up mask is my absolute fave and will be great for keeping my skin
hydrated. I also went for the Ginzing eye cream to help me from looking jet
lagged. I've depotted some of my <b>Monu </b>Cleansing balm to give my skin a good
cleanse at the end of the day. Last of all is the <b>Caudalie</b> Beauty Elixir which
I will be using throughout the day to refresh my skin.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="line-height: 115%;"><b>Make
Up:</b> I never really wear make up when I go to hot places but I do like to make
an effort when we go out in the evening. <b>Dr Jart</b> is perfect for covering
blemishes but also feels really light on the skin. The <b>Collection</b> concealer is
great for under my eyes and any spots that may occur. I really love the <b>Clarins</b>
Instant Smooth primer and I find I need to use less BB cream when I use this. I’m
only taking the<b> Urban Decay</b> Naked Basics for my eyes as it’s so small and compact and I can
use this for my brows as well as my eyes, the <b>Bare minerals</b> Primer will help
keep this in place or just looks nice on its own. I’m taking my <b>Rimmel</b> stay
matte powder to use over my T zone in the evening just to try and stop me from
looking to sweaty! For blush I’m using <b>Nars</b> Deep Throat, I might not use this
depending on how red my face gets (pale girl problems) but I at least want the
option. For eyes just the <b>L’oreal</b> super liner and <b>Max Factor</b> Eye Brightening
mascara, then finishing off with either the <b>Maybelline</b> Baby lips in Pink Punch
or <b>Tanya Burr </b>Lip gloss in Afternoon tea, simple. </span>For Brushes I have an array of <b>Real Techniques</b> brushes which I use every day. The core Collection came with the handy brush roll so perfect
for travelling.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I’m packing all of this into my gorgeous <b>Cath Kidston</b> Travel

You can’t beat a good night out with the girls, especially
when it’s a random Wednesday night. I can’t help but feel a bit rebellious having
a cheeky glass of red on a school night (I know, I'm wild) but mixed with a
girlie gossip and fine dining you can’t go wrong.<o:p></o:p></div>

I'm so indecisive when it comes to picking a menu I change
my mind so many times, and I get serious food envy if I think someone has made
a better choice than me! But last night I think I was the winner.<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/photo2_zps34f0126f.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/photo2_zps34f0126f.jpg" height="478" width="640" /></a></div>

After my 2 courses I was completely stuffed. Some of the
girls ventured on and had a pudding and as amazing as they sounded, (Triple chocolate
brownie mmmmm) I just couldn't do it and I decided a cappuccino was the way forward.
I actually felt better for not having a pudding and a lot less guilty today!<o:p></o:p></div>

hours away on the train, for some people it would be quicker to visit France
than another part of the UK!</div>
</div>

I’ve been to Paris on a school trip years ago but thanks to
a cheeky Groupon deal I managed to get to see the sights with my best friends. It
was a long day. And by long I mean a 4am start! As sleepy as we were we managed
to dig out our prettiest spring outfits in the hope the weather would be just
as nice there as it has been here.</div>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<div style="text-align: center;">
We got to St Pancras station at 6.00am and were well and
truly ready for a coffee, i’d never seen it so quiet! We Decided to take some
prosecco on the Euro star to make it extra special, the whole carriage cheered
when we popped the cork, great start!</div>

We arrived in Paris and just as we had hoped the weather was
stunning! We went straight to the Eiffel tower and I’m sure the weather helped
but it really did look beautiful.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Our deal included fast track entry into the tower as well as
a 2 course lunch and champagne. I wasn’t quite sure what to expect with the
lunch and to be honest I was pleasantly surprised at how good it was! Main was
chicken and potatoes with mascarpone and truffle foam followed by a chocolate
praline torte which was to die for.</div>

Next on our agenda was a trip down the River Seine. Again the
weather made this part even better it was so relaxing, the scenery was gorgeous
and sailing past Notre Dame was the cherry on the cake.</div>

For the rest of the afternoon we headed over to the Louvre. We
had the chance to pay extra and explore but as the weather was so nice we
decided to explore the side streets and make the most of the weather. Obviously
we had to have an obligatory Louvre photo.</div>

The streets are so pretty filled with patisseries and little
shops. Now if there’s one thing France knows how to do its carbs, how amazing
does this bread look! I also had my first macaroon which went down a treat.</div>

with a bottle of red wine. Four very happy but very tired girls.</div>

I can’t recommend a day trip to Paris enough. I would have
loved to have stayed longer and really explore the entire city but if you get
the chance to go I can’t recommend it enough.<br />
<br />
I must thank my friend Holly for some of these photos, she has a snazzy DSLR and it just makes me want one even more, time to get saving.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">There was so much hype around this product when it first
came out and I find its still a product I go back to again and again. I love
the scent, how it refreshes my skin and how it works perfect as a setting
spray. I’m almost out again so payday on Friday needs to hurry up!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This is by far the best primer that I have found for keeping
my make up in place all day, but it is on the pricey side at £26 per tub. Lucky for
me my sister didn't get on with this product so I have inherited a new tub. This
leaves your skin feeling silky smooth, hides your pores and holds your make up
in place perfectly. It’s just a shame it isn't more affordable!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">This is another product I have gone back to. I'm trying to save
for my holiday so I have had to hold of splurging on my favourite Origins
moisturiser, and when I walked past this in Superdrug I instantly remembered
how much I loved this. It only costs £2.99 which is a complete bargain and it
just gives my skin a gorgeous dewy finish. I would pay a lot more for this and
will definitely not be forgetting about this again!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">If like me you are just not skilled at a cat
flick then this is the product for you. It is pretty much just like a felt tip
making it easy to hold and apply. The nib is very fine so its super easy to use
just above your lash line, it doesn’t smudge and lasts all day so it’s a winner
in my book.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I’m not really one to wear lipstick every day, sometimes I just
find it a bit ott to wear in the office. I have been loving the Baby lips in
Pink Punch as it really keeps my lips nice and soft while adding a gorgeous subtle
pink tone, perfect for everyday wear. These are also only £2.99 and so convenient
to just throw into your handbag.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I love being healthy but like everyone I still like a cheat
and to be honest most of my snacking occurs in the evening when I'm all cuddled
on the sofa in my pyjamas. This is probably the easiest snack you could ever
make and even better, its guilt free.<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/047_zpsd08b9fd5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/047_zpsd08b9fd5.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<b>What you will need:</b><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Kale<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
1 tbsp. olive oil<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Seasoning of your choice. This can be anything from salt and
pepper to chilli and garlic. On this occasion we used Seaweed infused sea salt
flakes which my house mate got in her <a href="https://www.flavourly.com/">Flavourly</a> box.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/049_zps6b1e3099.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/049_zps6b1e3099.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Pre heat the oven to 200 degrees. Place the Kale on a baking
tray.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/051_zps6c34de99.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/051_zps6c34de99.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: start;">Cover the kale in your oil and seasoning and gently mix until the kale is evenly covered. I like to add the oil in stages to make sure I don’t add too much, you don’t want them soaked.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/055_zpsfce1adab.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/055_zpsfce1adab.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Pop the tray in the oven for about 10 minutes.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/056_zpsa4075633.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/CHARLIE_EPSL/food/056_zpsa4075633.jpg" height="480" width="640" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Remove the tray from the oven, put the chips in your
prettiest heart shaped bowl and enjoy!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
I absolutely love these because they are a great evening
snack which is light yet still super tasty.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;">
Will you be having a go at these? let me know what you think!<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
So the weather here in the UK is finally starting to pick up
and last week my friend hosted a little get together over the bank holiday.
This was the perfect opportunity to whip off the jeans that my legs have been
hiding under for the last 10 months or so and show them a bit of sunlight.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I know I’m going to sound like a <b>New Look</b> ambassador here,
but honestly just by coincidence it is where my whole outfit if from.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I fell in love with this little <a href="http://www.newlook.com/shop/womens/skirts/monochrome-elephant-print-tube-skirt_309501409">skirt</a> as soon as I saw it; I
am loving elephant ‘trend’ at the minute. I usually get sucked into whatever
animal print is popular, over winter I had so many little things with owls on!<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I would have usually opted for a black or white top to
complete the monochrome look but as it was a nice day I thought this coral t
shirt would be much more appropriate.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I used my trusty Enrapture Totem Styler to create these soft
waves using setting 1-1-1 which gives you soft waves suitable for the beach
without looking too done.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

What do you think? Have you braved going bare legged this
year yet?</div>

to have slipped back into just using the same products all the time especially
when I need to get up for work in the morning, no time for experimenting unfortunately!<o:p></o:p></div>

feels like forever a go that we booked it but it’s finally almost here! I am so
excited, there is still a bit of shopping to do before I go, a Primark trip is definitely
in order. I'm just really looking forward to getting away and relaxing. Make sure
you follow my Instagram as I'm sure I will be posting lots of pictures (or
unfollow if it will make you too jealous haha.)<o:p></o:p></div>

from around my waist. I've gotten rid of the scales and am just going on how I feel,
if you follow me on twitter you might be a bit fed up of all my fitness posts
