Current Skincare Rutine


My skincare has really been upped lately so i thought id give a little post to update you on it.


  • La Roche Posey Efficlar Mat
  • La Roche Posey Efficlar duo
  • Ole Henriksen Truth Serum collagen Booster
  • Lancome Genifique Yeux
  • Biologique Recherche Lotion P50
  • Antipodes Avocado Pear Nourishing Night Cream
  • Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye
  • Estee Lauder Advanced night Repair 


In the morning i use my P50 after cleansing my face, but only on my forehead and chin. Once it has dried in a bit i tend to use Ole Henriksen Truth Serum which is an amazing serum that smells awesome but wont be repurchased as it is soooo expensive. Then i will use the famous Efficlar Duo to take care of my bumpy skin. I have been seeing an amazing difference in my skin with this, all the bumps are pretty much gone and no more appearing. Lancome Genifique Yeux is not my favourite eye cream ever but its what i have on the go at the moment so I'll pop a bit of that on until i finish it . Lastly i use my Efficlar Mat before starting on my Makeup. This moisturiser really helps control my oily skin throughout the day and my makeup lasts longer.

Then for my night time routine,  after cleansing i use P50 again. Though this time on my whole face, except my eyes. When it has dried in a bit ill use the Estee Lauder serums on my face and my eyes. I have been liking the Advanced night repair set but i dont think yet that if lives up to the hype that is surrounding it just now. Sometimes i will use the Genifique Yeux again if my eyes are feeling pretty dry. They are the only bit of my skin that ever are. Another smothering of efficlar duo to keep all the evil bumps away and finally the antipodes Advocado Pear night cream leaves my skin perfectly sorted for the night of sleep ahead.

Recently i have been using the Clarins Lotus Face Treatment Oil at night before my serums. I. Am. Loving. It. :D

Wish List: My InLoveWithFashion competition wish list

This collage is what i am now desperately scribbling down in my 'wish list' in my diary. Scrawled 5 stars next to them, yes i have a rating system of how much i need thins within my lists, don't ask.

This is actually my entry to a new competition that has be launched between EtailPR and InLoveWithFashion. The Etail Blogging Network run lots of great competitions for their registered bloggers and this is an especially good one. Having teamed up with InLoveWithFashion this competition gives us a chance to win a £200 voucher to spend at ILWF :)
To be in with a chance of winning all you need to do is create a 'wish list' style collage of your favourite pieces from ILWF and post about it on your blog




Black Peep toe Stud Heel Shoe - £45
Love Black Long Sleeve Wrap - £32
LOVE Raspberry Yoke Drape Dress - £34
Love Navy Marcella Dress with Pearl Collar - £38
ILWF Black Chelsea Boots - £36
Love Black Asymmetrical Drape Skirt - £28
Love Beige Sunray Pleat Skirt - £28
Love Stone Popcorn Crucifix Over sized Jumper - £40 

I would get a lot of different outfits from this.

The three dresses are both so perfect for great day to night looks. For day time i would wear with the Chelsea boots , then slip on a little more jewellery and the peep toe heels and hey presto; night time perfection.
Both skirts would look great with the crucifix jumper half tucked in. I would also wear the black skirt with a basics top/tshirt, a statement necklace and converse trainers for a casual day out. The beige skirt would look super cute and sophisticated with a soft white shirt for a more polished look.
For days that i wouldn't want to wear a jacket i think it would look so cute to have the jumper over any of the dresses. 
Scottish summer is sorted with denim shorts, low top converse, a vest top and this jumper thrown over so you don't freeze.

The black wrap dress and peep toe heels were what first caught my eye, they are stunning together. It might just happen that they accidentally ended up in my shopping basket on the site... and then my hand slipped and i accidentally entered my card details on the website. I didn't mean to buy then... honest.



The competition rules can be found here for you to enter yourself.

The In Love With Fashion website can be found here. They have a lot of lovely clothes, it took me a lot of effort to narrow it down to this, but i do like myself a capsule wardrobe.

Will you be entering, i would love to see your picks.
