Life With Kirsty Jane

November 2020 Birchbox

How is it December in a few days? This year has literally flown by! I wasn’t blown away with this month’s Birchbox, but there were a few products in there that I was very happy with. There is a good mix of make-up, skincare and hair products which is always nice and I don’t thinkContinue reading “November 2020 Birchbox”

November 2020 Glossybox

I’m a bit late with this month’s Glossybox review but here it is…and it’s a good one! I must admit I was ever so slightly disappointed at first glance as the theme is Make-Up & Magic so I’d expected quite a make-up heavy box whereas it actually seems more focused on skincare this month. BUTContinue reading “November 2020 Glossybox”

Gift Guide – Shop Local

At times like this, it is so important to shop small and local when you can! We have lots of super talented bodies here in the Scottish Borders so I’m dedicating this post to the small, local businesses around me. Again, I will mainly focus on those that I have had personal experience with andContinue reading “Gift Guide – Shop Local”

Gift Guide – Home

Another day, another gift guide and this time I’m looking at all things home related! I’m currently in the process of moving house yet again, and it’s even more difficult than usual due to this virus! The flat we are moving out of hasn’t been let yet and the house we are moving into stillContinue reading “Gift Guide – Home”

Gift Guide – Beauty

I was originally only going to post one gift guide but I was going to end up ridiculously long so I’m breaking it down into sections. This post will focus on all things health and beauty so think make-up, skincare, bath and body! Again, I’m going to talk about things that I have either usedContinue reading “Gift Guide – Beauty”

Gift Guide – Fashion

If any of you have the same amount of trouble trying to think of gifts as I do then I know you will appreciate this post (unless you read through it and hate all my suggestions). I am always on the look out for gift guides and there can never be too many in myContinue reading “Gift Guide – Fashion”

Belts Aren’t Just for Holding up Your Pants

Okay, yes, belts can be used for this reason but if your trousers are going to fall down because you’re not wearing a belt, you need a different size…not a belt. But that’s not the point of this post, I love belts…they are definitely one of my favourite accessories and I will add one toContinue reading “Belts Aren’t Just for Holding up Your Pants”

My Working Life…So Far

Let’s be honest, a post about work doesn’t sound the most exciting…and it probably isn’t. But this is something a lot of people will be going through right no so I thought I would share my experience of looking for employment during lockdown as well as my experiences in the workplace. I apologise in advance,Continue reading “My Working Life…So Far”

October 2020 Birchbox

Another month, another beauty box…although on this occasion it’s a beauty bag! This month is Breast Cancer Awareness Month and Birchbox has teamed up with Look Good Feel Better, which is a charity providing confidence boosting workshops to people suffering side effects of cancer. They have also added more skincare than make up this monthContinue reading “October 2020 Birchbox”

October 2020 Glossybox

I know I’ve said this at the start of pretty much every post but I just can’t get over how quickly this year is going…I feel like I did my last Glossybox post only a few days ago! This month’s Glossybox theme is Beauty Tales and subscribers received one of two box designs…either Enchanted SpiritContinue reading “October 2020 Glossybox”
