I'm back with my second 'Lip Of The Day' weekly round-up, catch my first post here if you missed it and if you're new to my blog altogether, welcome.  Here, I post which lip products and perfumes I've been wearing each day.  A little reminder that these posts are currently weeks behind and that I do sometimes wear older makeup (unless it looks or smells icky), as I like to use my products as much as I can.  That said, I tend to reach for balms, oils and glosses these days which happen to be more current.  I wear perfume throughout the day and most nights put on another before bedtime.  EDT stands for Eau de Toilette and EDP is Eau de Parfum.

Following on from my previous posts, "Life Lately" is my new blog feature (written weekly), basically summarising my week.  It's a mix of everything in my daily life; music, TV, what I've been buying, perfumes I'm wearing, how I'm feeling etc.  As I mentioned last time, it took me a long while to get here, writing posts again, so these blogs are now old(er) news, but as I'd already done the groundwork for a lot of them, I figured I'd start where I intended.  I may catch up somewhat in the beginning, but because of my M.E., I'd like to always remain slightly behind, so I have room for manoeuvre, should I need it.  Hopefully these posts will encompass all the topics I specified I wanted to discuss in that introductory post.  Let's go!     What I've been doing;  I finished this c...

Welcome to my first proper post in a very long time-I hope you're all keeping well.  This series will focus on my LOTD's (Lip Of The Day) and which perfumes I've been wearing with them.  As I mentioned last week, I got into the habit of wearing daily lip combinations years ago, despite no longer wearing a full face of makeup.  Lip products have always been some of my favourite kinds of makeup, though I'd say my tastes have changed somewhat over the past year or two.  As you'll see, I mostly wear lipliner with a balm, oil or gloss and tend not to reach for my lipsticks as much (lipstick always used to be my favourite).  

It's Me, I'm Back!

I'm not sure I have the adequate words right now for why I haven't posted since Christmas Eve 2022, but I felt I couldn't begin without any explanation at all, so here goes.  Basically a lot has changed in the past few years, whilst nothing has really changed at all! I know that sounds cryptic, but in a nutshell, I've become less and less able to do what I used to (for those that don't know, I've had M.E. since 2002), so blogging was something that fell by the wayside.

In the run up to Christmas, I've been blogging beauty releases from Christmas collections past and present. Last time, I shared the star embossed blush from Kiko's 2022, Joyful Holiday collection . There's an online offer at the bottom of each post as a little treat and over on The Shoe Girl Diaries I'm sharing my Irregular Choice Christmas shoes.
