I expected this post to be a little less mundane than usual, as I actually left the house and did something for once (nothing 'exciting' sadly).  I wanted to be really truthful about how that feels, but it's hard to put into words without sounding like a narcissistic moanbag!  I suspect I'll cut a lot of this out, but read on for a summary of that week.

Hello, I hope you're all keeping well.  We've gotten some much needed rain (the grass is green for the first time all Summer) and it's been a bit cooler (thankfully), so I've been able to sleep at night.  It's actually been feeling slightly Autumnal for brief moments and as we say in Scotland "the nights are fair drawing in" (means daytime is shorter/night is coming quicker), so it's time to shut the curtains and put the lights on earlier than usual.  Dare I say, I've been thinking of Christmas?  I keep getting emails about beauty advent calendar waitlists, so I think it's that, coupled with the change in weather!  Here's my round-up of lip combos and perfumes I've worn throughout the week.

Hello, here's my second weekly summary of what's been happening.  I wanted to post it last week, but I was busy doing other things and am trying not to beat myself up too much if blogging isn't as punctual as it should be.  Health-wise I'm at a point where I have to choose one thing or another, I can't do both, so I made that choice and I enjoyed what I was doing.  I'm genuinely so happy to have a few blog posts completed already, I wasn't sure I'd manage it, so I'm not putting pressure on myself to do more than I can.  I hope you're all coping as best as you can with the heat (I was actually in tears watching the fires on the news).  It had been cooler here recently, but unfortunately back to sweltering the past few days.  I know we're nowhere near the hottest in the country, but...

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).

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.

I have such good intentions, but clearly am unrealistic about what I can manage! Anyway, last time I shared the current season Dior Vernis including the top coat . I still haven't had the chance to do my nails, I've broken almost all of them over the past few weeks and keep meaning to do them, but never have time. Today I have another current season item, because my Kiko order from November arrived yesterday! It's taken nearly a month, but 'tis the season for strikes and delays in 2022.

Weirdly however, this year, the nail colours are in regular Dior Vernis packaging. The overall colour theme is midnight blue and gold with stars, so the silver t...
