And here we are again, not long after my June post, I have managed to pull myself together and get another one done before the month is out! July’s Glossybox theme is Summer Escape and has us dreaming of far away places and exotic holidays. Glossy subscribers will receive 6 items in this month’s boxContinue reading “July Glossybox 2023”

Spring is finally here! Although as usual, the Scottish weather has been keeping us on our toes…there have been a few glorious days though and I am loving the lighter nights! Glossybox’s theme this month is ‘Bloom & Grow’, inspired by nature and allowing ourselves to grow and flourish…okay, a bit airy fairy for meContinue reading “April Glossybox 2023”

So, I am seriously behind schedule with the beauty box posts, with delayed dispatches, Storm Arwen cutting our power off for a week and December festivities in general, I’ve cut myself some slack and am bringing you both November and December’s boxes to you just before we see the year out! I was pretty impressedContinue reading “November & December Glossybox 2021”

Another day, another delayed review post…and although my Birchbox was delayed this month, it’s more due to me being lazy and I just really couldn’t be arsed. But here it is, in all it’s glory and still with a day to spare! This month subscribers were treated to a tin rather than a cardboard boxContinue reading “September Birchbox 2021”

I had been meaning to get this written sooner but due to personal circumstances it got delayed…but better late than never hey? It’s been nearly two years since I’ve been to a proper show (Burghley 2019 I think?!) and I cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to making up for lost time…whetherContinue reading “What to wear for Blair?”

I’m not a big holiday buff at the best of times, but after nearly two years of not going anywhere, I was so ready for a getaway, and thanks to a phobia of flying, I am a big fan of the humble staycation. I was lucky enough to get away not once, but twice overContinue reading “Who Needs to go Abroad?”

So this post is late this month as my Glossybox was very delayed in making it’s way to my door. This was outwith Glossybox’s control and they did keep me (and everyone else I would imagine) up to date via e-mail so I didn’t have a problem with this…although going by the comments on theirContinue reading “July Glossybox 2021”

I always forget that Father’s Day is in June for some reason and it creeps up on me every year and leaves me floundering for a last minute gift. I’m on the ball this year though and already know what I’m getting my own Dad (well I know where I’ll be buying from anyway), soContinue reading “Father’s Day Inspo”

Glossybox’s theme for March was Pretty Pleasures, a box containing products that will boost your mood and your confidence (I don’t know about you but I could do with some of that right now). I’d say this month was a mixed bag for me in terms of products but there was a good range ofContinue reading “March Glossybox 2021”

I am very late to the party with my subscription box reviews this month and am just getting round to writing this on the last day of March! The March Birchbox celebrated International Women’s Day and made sure to feature some female founded brands and celebrate powerful women. I found the contents of this month’sContinue reading “March Birchbox 2021”
