March Favourites 2014: Beauty & Lifestyle

6 April 2014

March Favourites 2014

This is a bit later than usual, so apologies for that! Here is my March Favourites video, a round-up of everything I think deserved a special mention last month! If you can help me out with what mentioned on the video, I’d be ever so grateful. I need that in my life, and I need it now!! :) As always, if you enjoyed watching this video, give it a thumbs up and subscribe to my channel to see more videos from me.

Now for a little public service announcement: tonight is a very important night… it’s the premiere of Game of Thrones Season 4. Yeah, baby! The day is finally here. If you’re in UK, apparently, Sky Atlantic will be broadcasting it at the same time as it premieres in the US. Hooray! But the catch is that you’ll have to stay awake until 2am to watch it live. Yiakes! Unfortunately, my hubby works tomorrow morning, and since GoT is usually a ‘date night’ for us, it saddens me to say I’ll have to wait until tomorrow evening to watch it. I’ll be avoiding social media like the plague tomorrow, so if you watch it tonight, pleeeease don’t tell me anything! :)

What was your favourite of my March Favourites? Will you be watching GoT tonight, live at 2am, or will you wait until tomorrow night? :)

      Thank you! :) The case is gorgeous. I’m not sure if they do one for Samsung smartphones, but it’s worth having a look :) x

    My favourite nude lipstick right now is the Soap & Glory Super Colour Fabulipstick in Naked Beige. We have similar colouring, so you might like it too! :) I felt like the Super Nude shade was slightly too pale for me, but your makeup always looks fab!!

    Hi Ysis,
    I’m a fairly new subscriber and this is the first comment I’ve made *Hello!*
    Really enjoy your blog.
    I have just bitten the bullet and ordered the Chanel phone case from a Canadian seller on Etsy – so I’ll let you know how it goes. At least you can pay with PayPal, which offers you a bit of protection!
    I use the Naked basics palette nearly every day and really like it – if you think this is hard to open you should try the Tarte amazonian clay blush compact – I’m sure I’m going to break a nail every time I use it!

      Hi Rachel, welcome and thanks for subscribing! :)

      Definitely let me know how it goes with the Etsy seller, so I can tell other people if that seller is safe! :)

      Oh my god, that’s crazy about the Tarte compact! I’ve no idea why they do this. It’s so unnecessary. No one should ruin their manicure or break a nail trying to open a palette. hehe :)

      Hope to see more comments from you soon! xx

How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind How are you all feeling? Really, how’s your mind right now? It’s so important to check in with ourselves instead of ignoring how we feel and burying our heads in housework, jobs, kids and life admin.

💫 What do I need?

That’s a good way to start. I’ll list a few things I need right now. They don’t all have to be grand things, sometimes I only need the smallest things.

1. I need to wash my hair.
2. I need silence.
3. I need to rearrange some rooms in the house (don’t know why I need this, but I really do).
4. I need to zero my inbox.
5. I need uninterrupted sleep.
6. I need a good hearty meal.
7. I need to exercise.
8. I need to smile.
9. I need to see my mum.
10. I need to put my needs first.

If I were to pick just one need right this second, I’d say number 2. I’m normally really sensitive to loud noises, but today... dear me! Even a slightly louder whisper was annoying me! 🙈
I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jeal I mean... I can barely see him but I’m well jealous of this cosy situation! 😍 Oh Benji boy, you’re bringing us so much joy already! 🐶🤎

Trust the process ✨ I chose this phrase to repre Trust the process ✨ I chose this phrase to represent 2021 for me and it couldn’t be more fitting.

Every time I find myself thinking things won’t work out before even giving it a chance, I repeat to myself “trust the process”. It gives me the strength I need to keep going and just like that... things do work out. Always.

This lockdown has been so much harder than the first one for me. How have you found it?

I thought it was going to be the same or easier than the first time because we’d done it before, but it’s actually been so much more testing.

The only way I’m getting through it is by 💫 trusting the process 💫
Pretty much where we’ve spent the last 2 days! 🐾🐶 Benji is settling in brilliantly and I’m so proud of the kids for showing him a lot of love and affection... and of course, plenty of playfulness! 🥰 Now we need to work on his nipping - those puppy teeth are sharp and it seems little kiddies’ wiggly toes are irresistible! Any tips? 🤎

Meet Benji 🐶🐾🤎 . Yesterday we added a lit Meet Benji 🐶🐾🤎

Yesterday we added a little furry friend to our family and he is just the most perfect little pup! 😍 We’re so in love with him already, the kids literally haven’t left his side. We’ve wanted a puppy since before we had kids, but decided to wait a bit.  Benji joining our family now couldn’t have come at a better time and he’s such a loving pup. Just look at that face! ☺️

He is a chocolate roan show cocker spaniel and he’s 8 weeks old today 🍫❤️ His first night went so well, I’ll have to tell you all about it at some point, but for now I’ll leave you with these pup pics to warm your hearts! 🥰
