There will be no 'Monster High Monday' this week as I was late getting up and showered today, so won't be going out! I have for you though, January's 'Beloved Beauty Bits'. I struggled a little bit as I'd been using the Rimmel mascara (which I liked but didn't love) and trialling the 'mystery' foundation (again I liked but didn't love), so I haven't used any other mascara/foundation for the past month. Plus I think I must be sticking with products that have been BBB before, so there's not many 'new' products to feature. That said, I do have a small selection of items that I've really loved using over the past few weeks. Best one first, which is this Good Glowing powder blush (pictured above and below). Before you all fall head over heels for it, I'll warn you it is by a US brand, Mark (like Avon) and I think the Good Glowing blushes are discontinued now and this was possibly a limited edition shade at the ...

My 'specialty' is apple slices over peanut butter on toast, but today I added a dollop of PB to apple quarters and it was so yummy! Seeing as apples can sometimes taste gross, this is an incentive for me! It sounds disgusting but totally works. I've almost finished this jar of Nick Lowe moisturiser I started last year. I get such satisfaction finishing skincare/makeup items! Think I'm going to try Catch A Wrinkle In Time by Soap & Glory next, seeing as my skin is semi-behaving. Speaking of S&G, I've also just finished my second round of 21 Day collagen overhaul using Wish Upon A Jar. You use this cream morning and night either under or instead of your usual moisturiser for 21 days straight, once per season. One jar is supposed to last for one treatment period, but as you can see, I still have a little left after using it twice (perhaps I'm not using enough?). It smells lovely, like marshmallows! I'm still trying to figure out which Harajuku Lovers ...

Are you ready for a mucho mahoosive haul post? Here's my cool Boots goodies. I can't stress enough how amazing these Christmas events are. If you don't know, you get £12 worth of points for every £50 you spend. Plus I had a voucher from last time to get an extra £5 worth of points and I have another one for the next event at the end of November. Not only that, most of the gifts are 3 for 2 (and indeed most things instore currently), so you're always getting a bargain anyway. If you can't get to a larger Boots store that are running these events, you can normally shop online for 2 days and qualify for the £12 points deal. So here's the Soap & Glory gift sets: Wait On Hand And Foot £15, Lock, Stock & Bubble £18, Double Glammy £12 (free), Glow Maintenance £25, Spa Rush! Shower! £25 Glam Packed £20 (free) Soap & Glory skincare was also 3 for 2 and I got a few things last time that I liked, so bought another Night In Shining Armour Cream £12, then got H...
