Blogmas Day 24 | Christmas Eve!

I can't believe that today is the final day of Blogmas! It has gone by so quickly and i'm so surprised that I actually managed to Blog every single day for 24 days but it makes me so sad that I only have a few more days left of my favourite time of year, I almost enjoy the build up of Christmas and getting in the festive mood more than the actual day because it goes by so quickly but I have enjoyed every minute of feeling festive and I hope that it made you all feel very festive too! Today's post isn't about anything in particular just a little festive ramble! I am very excited to spend some time with my family and enjoy the next few days then get read for some fun new blog posts for the new year! As much fun as it has been to post every day I cant wait for a little festive break doing all the fun things that families do at Christmas! I hope all of you have a very merry Christmas and a wonderful new year! Spend time with your loved ones, eat lots and be merry! I hope the next few days are merry and bright! Happy Christmas everyone!! x

Blogmas Day 23 | Ipsy Glambag Opening

Only 2 days to go!! I was really worried that my Ipsy Glambag wasn't going to arrive in time to be featured in my Blogmas but it arrived by the nick of time and I think it is perfect to feature as one of my final posts in Blogmas! Below is everything I received in this months Glambag!

Marc Anthony Coconut Oil Deep Conditioning Treatment- This smells amazing! The blend of coconut oil and shea butter not only creates the most incredible amount of nourishment and hydration for your hair but it creates the most amazing scent, it smells so tropical and makes me wish I was laying on a beach! I cant't wait to see how soft this makes my hair!

Pacifica Power Of Love Natural Lipstick 'Nudie Red'- I was really intrigued when I saw this because it is 100% vegan and cruelty free which makes me really happy to know that i'm using a product that does no harm to the world! The colour is a bit more earthly than my normal reds but the pigment is really rich and feels really soft when you apply it!

Crown Brush C413 Brow Brush Duo- I quite like being able to try new tools with this bag but when I felt the hairs on the angled end of the brush they felt really stiff and rough. The angled brush I have for my brows already is really soft and I like that so I feel like I might just be using the other end more.

FormulaX Nail Polish 'Revved Up'- This adorable little bottle of festive colour makes me excited for christmas! I have never tried FormulaX before but apparently it is supposed to have a great finish, the colour is really rich and shimmery! This is also a perfect size to travel with too as it's just enough to take with you! I can't wait to try it!

Clark's Botanicals Deep Moisture Mask- This was my one product I wasn't sure about but when I read more about it I couldn't wait to try it! It actually has a really lovely scent and some amazing benefits! It calms redness and softens skin whilst being packed with jasmine absolute and Japanese green tea it helps balance stressed skin! Great for some over Christmas rest and pamper sessions!

Blogmas Day 22 | December Empties!

Only 3 days to go to Christmas!! Even though I don't do regular monthly empties I thought I would do one this month as part of Blogmas. I have been thinking about starting to do regular monthly empties in the new year, although part of me doesn't want to commit because some months I just so happen to use up a lot more products than compared to some months when I just end up using 1 product, so I may just end up doing them occasionally and saving up my empties to have lots to talk about! As for now though below are all the products I have loved using so much they are now empty! Luckily I don't have any products I don't like in this empties haul!

Zoella Fizz Bar- I absolutely love the scent of this which is why I am so sad I finished these adorable little fizz bars! They have such a sweet, fresh fragrance and no colour which is why these are so perfect for a simple pick me up bath! They leave my skin feeling so soft and I can't wait to get my hands on some more! 

Simple Cleansing Facial Wipes- I love the brand Simple and they have been my go to skin care since a very young age, I just love the fact that none of their product irritate my skin! I use these wipes as an everyday makeup removing wipe, they do a really good job and leave my skin feeling soft and fresh!

Nivea Invisible Anti-Perspirant- I bought this little mini when I was travelling as it was just the perfect size to throw in my bag when I was on the go and I actually loved it! First of all it is great because it had white mark protection that actually worked which mean't I didn't have to worry about what I was wearing or putting on whilst wearing this! It has a really nice fresh, floral scent to it too which I loved! I need a big bottle of this!

Sephora Lotus Sheet Mask- I like to pick one of these up every once in a while as I much prefer sheet masks over any other face mask, I find them so easy to use and so much less hassle because you don't have to wash your face off after. My skin did feel very soft after using this, I just didn't like the smell, of all the ones I have tried I don't like any of their scent and I wish they smelt better for something I put on my face!

Gillette Venus Embrace Razors- I have to wear a lot of dresses and skirts to work and so I am constantly shaving my legs, the Gillette Venus line always seems to be the one I go for, they have lot of different razors depending on what you need and I loved these just as much as some of the others! I don't often cut myself and these ones help to have less nicks and cuts and I think they did a great job, it also had a ribbon of moisture which is my favourite because it glides really smoothly and moisturizes your legs!

Blogmas Day 21 | Deck The Halls!

Even though its so close to Christmas already, only 4 days, i'm so excited! I still keep buying Christmas decorations I probably don't need but this is my favourite time of year I always just want to buy everything! I already have my decorations up but I saw these little baubles and they were too cute to resist! My theme for my decorations is red, white and silver so the small ones in those colours worked really well. They were perfect for smaller bits of decoration like garlands and wreaths but I probably really didn't need the pastel coloured ones but I couldn't leave them on the shelf and had to take them home with me! I think I just love the fact that they are so simple but pretty and I wish I had a place for them some where but they just don't go with any of the colours! The pink ones are definitely my favourites, they would look gorgeous on a white Christmas tree with lots of other pastel colours.... now I have slight regret with my colour choices but there are too many choices!!  Although I am very happy with the choices I made for my decorations, I have plain red and white baubles as well as red and silver glitter baubles, dried oranges, glitter pine cones and faux berry sticks! My gorgeous mum helped me do this, everything she does is beautiful especially at Christmas time!

Blogmas Day 20 | Sprinkles Of Warm Vanilla Sugar!

The classic warm vanilla sugar from Bath and Body Works may not be one of their Christmas collections but it's still one of my favourites at winter time, it's one of those really cozy sweet scents. With delicious hints of vanilla almost desert like, it's an irresistible subtle scent! I would say that this would be an ideal scent to buy for someone if you aren't too sure on what they like as it is very subtle but just sweet and yummy! Not only would these make gorgeous stocking stuffers but you could put a few of them together for an adorable gift. My favourites for a gift set would definitely be the foaming hand soap and moisturizing hand lotion because I think that they would be the perfect bathroom set during the winter and I love using them, you get a great foam with the soap and the hand lotion is really moisturizing!  I also really enjoy the body spray because it gives you a splendid sweet sugary fragrance but it's not too heavy. How cute is the packaging too with the sparkling sugar coated flowers. Warm Vanilla Sugar get's a huge pair of festive thumbs up from me!

Blogmas Day 19 | Festive food!

Every year at Christmas time our favouite foods turn into cute little festive characters and shapes and line the shelves of the shops waiting to get us in the festive mood! Some of my favourite sweet treats this year are Cadbury's Snowmen, a thin layer of milk chocolate encases a secret soft white chocolate mousse center, it is such a cute little shape and so yummy! The next thing i'm loving is the Malteaser Merryteaser, I loved these when they bought them out at Easter originally as the bunnies and so when I saw that they had come out with the reindeer for Christmas I was so excited! Soft milk chocolate with the crunch of malteaser pieces mixed in it's just so yummy, it's basically a bigger version of the favourite malteser chocolate in the boxes of Celebrations! Speaking of Celebrations, these are my favourite Christmas selection box by far, forget the Roses and Quality Street! I love all of the selection in there including the Galaxy Caramel, Malteser and Bounty! Nothing feels more christmassy than breaking into a box of those goodies! I think it's safe to say that there will be lots of yummy indulging happening this Christmas but why not, it's Christmas!

Blogmas Day 18 | Lush Peeping Santa Review

It's that time again! More festive Lush reviews! This little guy is one of my favourite festive bubble bars at the moment, bubble bars are so easy to use, you simply just break a piece off and hold it under warm running water for fields of fluffy bubbles! With real chocolate chip eyes and sprinkles of red glitter hearts this little strawberry scented santa is the perfect sweet bath treat. I know that strawberry isn't a very christmassy scent but its too cute and delicious to resist! Packed full of shea butter and cocoa butter it leaves your skin feeling so soft and smooth which is perfect as my skin dries out so easily this time of year with the cold air, as well as leaving your skin dusted with the sweet scent of  fresh strawberries! I just pop this in my bath to relax and re-hydrate my skin on a nice cozy evening!

Blogmas Day 17 | Seasons Greetings!

For as long as I can remember I would always receive Christmas cards from my grandparents and my aunts and uncles. My family sends them out every year to our friends an family and we always receive them which is why this year I wanted to buy some Christmas cards to go with some of the gifts I was giving! I had hunted around for a while because I knew I wanted something simple but pretty and I couldn't seem to find them anywhere. Eventually when I wasn't hunting I found these! I love that they are on the brown paper card, that's exactly what I wanted and I thought that the Christmas tree made of all lovely words was just so nice, plus they added prettiness of the glitter and sequins! I just knew these would be the perfect cards! I love giving cards and I also love receiving them, there is nothing nicer than a hand written card which is why I will never stop giving them, I love picking them out and really personalizing them! Christmas is the perfect time to give a lovely card, whether you buy individual ones or a box of them there are so many pretty ones to choose from!

Blogmas Day 16 | Chocolate Dipped Festive Pretzels

I decided to be a bit creative an come up with a quick recipe for some sweet festive treats, they are really easy to make and you could mix and match topping if you wanted to! These also make perfect little gifts as well! I really enjoyed making these and they actually tasted really nice!

Ingredients:

1 Bag of Large Pretzel Rods (Snapped in Half)
226g Of Milk Chocolate Chips
100g Of White Chocolate Chips
5 Crushed Candy Canes

Directions:

1) Cover a large tray with parchment paper and set to the side.
2) Fill a small saucepan with a small amount of water and place on heat, sit a glass bowl on top of the saucepan and fill with milk chocolate chips, heat on very low until melted.
3) Take you pieces of pretzel and dip them into the milk chocolate, covering them well but leaving a 1 inch 'handle' at the end, once dipped place them down on the tray in a row. Place tray in fridge until hardened.
4) Using the same method as before melt down the white chocolate, remove the tray from the fridge and once the white chocolate has melted take a fork, dip it into the melted chocolate and drizzle it along the rows of pretzels.
5) Sprinkle with the crushed candy canes and place in the fridge once again to harden.
6) Once hardened removed from the fridge and enjoy!

Blogmas Day 15 | Bath and Body Works Festivities

You all know how obsessed I am with my festive scents so I went a bit crazy when I was picking out hand sanitizes in Bath and Body Works and even though I use these a lot I don't think I needed this many but I couldn't resist! The first one I got was 'Oh Snap Jolly Gingerbread' This smells amazing, exactly like the cookies, I often don't go for the sweet scents in Bath and Body Works because I find them really sickly sweet but my favourite Christmas cookie is gingerbread so I'm in love with this one. It's sweet, spicy and almost edible! The next one I picked up was 'Frosted Cranberry' its a very sweet and fruity scent, i'm not sure what frosted cranberries are supposed to smell like but this is definitely a winter scent and I quite like this one, i'm not sure if I'm 100% in love with this yet but I'm hoping it will grown on me! The next one I got was 'Jingle All The Way' I had one this colour last year and so I thought it would smell the same, apparently not... It smells like berries but it has this under laying manly scent like an aftershave so i'm really not sure if I like this one yet, i'm not so keen at the moment and i'm not sure if i'm going to warm to this one just because I much prefer the sweet and fruity scents! Lastly I got 'Tis The Season' as you all know from one of my other post that I really love this scent, it's so christmassy with hints of apple, cinnamon and cloves and as soon as I use it all I can smell is Christmas, it's heavenly!

Blogmas Day 14 | Glitter Galore!

I recently finished my 12 Days Of Beauty advent calendar from Hard Candy and I thought I would just give a quick recap of what I got! I thought the sizes were really good, they are smaller and cuter than normal bottles of nail polish but they are big enough to get several wears out of each bottle, there were a huge range of different colours and styles, lots of festive glitter and shimmer! My favourites are definitely the pinks and silver glitters, there were only a couple of colours that I didn't like just because they aren't really what I like to wear like the blue and purple. I'm not very vibrant with my colours but my favourites are definitely 'Fairy Ball' 'Celebrate Sequins' 'Bridal Party' and 'Fireworks' they are all the pink and silver ones! I really like the finish on Hard Candy nail polishes, they dry really quickly and have an amazing shine, I'm a very impatient when it comes to waiting for my nails to dry so I love that this is quick to dry. I always find that they last really long without chipping too so i'm very excited to have lots of minis to try and they are perfect size to travel with you can just pop one in your wash bag and always be ready for a touch up!

Blogmas Day 13 | Stocking Stuffers With Zoella

My beautiful friend Daisy sent these to me as a gift a while a go and I used them all up so quickly they were so cute and perfect size for a nice hot bath, so when it came to buying stocking stuffers this year I thought they would make a perfect stocking stuffer so I bought some more! They are just smaller versions of her classic bath fizzers but the are wrapped in the most adorable packaging! They come in a pack of three so you could give them all as a gift/ stocking filler or you could split them up and use them as an add on to a present or as a small gift! They smell amazing, I love this smell, so sweet and floral, when I use these in the bath I tend not to use anything else, I really like the fresh sweet scent and I don't need anything else! Most of the Zoella beauty range would make the best stocking stuffers, they are all perfectly sized and all smell amazing, a sweet treat for anyone at Christmas!

Blogmas Day 12 | December Favourites!

I know we are basically only half way through December but I already have so many products I'm loving!Below are the things I cant stop using!

Lush Rose Jam Shower Gel- I only have a couple of shower gel scents that I love from Lush and this is one of them, I'm so sad that it is only available at Christmas time and I know I have featured this so many times in my favourites but I just can't get enough, it smells just as you think it would, very sweet, very floral and I love it! 

Jergens Natural Glow- This time of year I always feel so pale and pasty and this is my favourite thing to use, it's a gradual colour daily moisturizer, it's really easy to apply and as long as you rub it in well it there are no streaks! Then after a few days the colour is great!

Bath and Body Works 'Tis The Season Hand Soap- This is my favourite Christmas scent from them and it smells like everything Christmas should smell like! I love it, it's packed full of apples, cinnamon and cloves!

Hard Candy Glamoflauge Heavy Duty Concealer- I received this in my 12 days of beauty advent calendar, it is amazing, really easy to blend and covered up even the hardest blemishes, once I have finished this I will buy a full tube! 

Soap and Glory The Righteous Butter- My feet are so dry this time of year and so I'm trying to use this every night on my feet and then put socks on and it's making my feet feel very soft!

Hard Candy Nail Polish- These are two of the minis I received in my 12 Days Of Nails calendar and these two were my favourites! I love pink and glitter and so these two were my favourite in shades 'Fairy Ball' and 'Celebrate Sequins'.

Blogmas Day.11 | Christmas Coziness!

One thing I love to do when I'm trying to unwind after a crazy day of working in retail during Christmas is to have a bath and light all my festive candles! I bought three cute little tealights holders from Homesense, they have little snowflakes cut out on them which reflect on the wall they and fit a tealight perfectly, I couldn't not buy them! I also have my tealight lantern from Ikea, I loved the fact it was cream and would go well with my room decor, it just looks so lovely, the little stars cut out on top reflect stars on the ceiling, it was one of those must haves for this season and who can resist a bargain in Ikea! One of my favourite scented candles this year is my Pottery Barn 'Mulled Apple Spice' candle, this smells amazing, even though it was slightly pricey I really think it was worth it because the scent is to die for! I love all the dried apples, leaves and glittery twigs that are layered into the candle wax, it burns for a really long time and I just love it! Some of my other candle favourites are DW Homes candles in Apple Honey Butter and Peppermint Stick as well as Bath and Body Works 'Tis The Season. I am slightly candles obsessed I think, but especially this time of year they make everything so cozy and fill rooms with such festive scents!

Blogmas Day 10 | Gingerbread House!

One of my favourite things to do around Christmas time is to decorate a gingerbread house! I have never really worked with gingerbread from scratch before and I'm always worried it won't work well enough to hold together so I very shamelessly buy a pre-made one, I just really enjoy the fun of decorating it and eating it so I think it's perfectly fine to buy one! Plus it comes with lots of yummy decorations for you to use as well as the icing! I decided I wanted mine to be a cute little candy cottage gingerbread house! Even though I'm not the greatest at piping the icing and it looks a bit messy but I don't care, it's fun! I think the roof is my favourite part, it looks so cute with the little candy balls and peppermints! Normally I try to keep my gingerbread house around for a while after I have finished it but I couldn't resist one of my favourite Christmas cookies and so I have nibbled lots of it already! Yummy! 

Blogmas Day 9 | Christmas Tree Oh Christmas Tree!

I am very lucky that my mum is a visual merchandiser because it means that every year we have the most beautifully decorated Christmas tree! Like something pulled straight from the pages of a gorgeous home magazine our Christmas tree is intertwined with red and white from the baubles to the ribbon and everything in between! We don't have a huge Christmas tree but is a very full fresh tree, I love the smell of a fresh Christmas tree and we always take a trip out to the Christmas tree farm and pick out our tree, as we enter the huge barn decorated with tons of fairy lights, the smell of fresh Christmas trees fills the air as people hustle and bustle to pick their perfect tree! Even though it looks like our tree is very elegant and simple in between the frosted berry branches and ceramic white hearts from The White Company and we do still have some fun decorations which are still in keeping with the red and white theme, the Santa Claus and the giant glitter candy canes are my favourites! I love the way our tree looks and  my house is feeling very festive now!

Blogmas Day 8 | Kisses Under The Mistletoe!

Today's post is all about my favourite Christmas lip looks this season, if Christmas isn't the most acceptable time to wear red lipstick then I don't know when is! I love bright reds, dark rich reds and all in between as so I thought I would talk about which ones are my favourites this season! You might have seen a couple of these in some of my previous posts but that's because I just love them!
Nars 'Cruella' is a velvet matte lip pencil, I love how rich the colour of this is and because it's matte it stays on so well I also find this one really easy to apply because of it's pencil shape! Model Co 'Stiletto' this is your very typical bright Christmas red and I love it, it's so vibrant and perfect for the Christmas season! Sephora Collection Rouge Shine 'Walk of Fame'- This is my Christmas party favourtie, its a darker red but its full of glitter, a party must have! Seventeen 'Rule Breaker' I love this one because it's a nice dark red but its a log lasting lip stain so it keeps your lips really rich with colour!

Blogmas Day 7 | Lush Luxury Pud Bath Bomb Review

I absolutely love lavender, not only does it smell heavenly it really helps me sleep and so even though the smell of this isn't anything new or special, it's a classic but it is the most fun and beautiful bath bomb ever, it's part of the Lush Christmas collection which is why it takes its shape as a Christmas pudding with a little piece of holly on top, it has such vibrant colours with its moisturizing Shea butter buttons in bright yellow, blue, green and orange. This bath bomb soothes and relaxes you as well as leaving you skin feeling amazingly soft, it's very similar to the twilight bath bombs with its scent packed full of lavender oil and that's why it's one of my favourites, there is nothing better than having a cozy night in the bath relaxing with this bath bomb before drifting off to the best nights sleep ever! 

Blogmas Day 6 | Sugar Cookie Recipe

Sugar cookies are a delicious classic Christmas treat and so I thought it would be perfect to make some! The recipe is really easy to follow and if you find it a little too dry just add a little bit of water to the dough, you can cut them into any shape you like, I chose stars and Christmas trees because I just thought those shapes would bake the best and keep their shapes! You can decorate them how you like too, some people like to use royal icing to pipe shapes or outlines I decided that I just wanted to dust mine with icing sugar! Below is the recipe!

Ingredients: 

3/4 cup of softened butter 

1 cup of granulated sugar

1 egg

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 & 1/2 cups of flour

1/4 cup of water

1/2 tsp of baking powder

1 pinch of salt

Directions:

-In a large bowl beat together butter and sugar until until light and fluffy then beat in the egg and vanilla extract. Stir in the flour, baking powder and salt until a dough is formed.

-Divide dough in half, shape into a disc and wrap in cling film, place in fridge for 1 hour. Once it has been refrigerate remove and leave to reach room temperature until soft enough to roll out.

-On a floured surface roll out dough to a 1/4 inch thickness, cut out shapes and place them on a tray lined with parchment paper.

- Bake in oven at 375F (190C) for about 10 minutes or until pale golden with golden brown edges. Remove from oven and place on cooling racks, once cooled dust with icing sugar and enjoy! 

Blogmas Day 5 | Stocking Stuffers From Bath and Body Works

I have finally discovered my favourite scent from the Bath and Body Works Christmas range and they have all the perfect stocking stuffers in that scent and even though I bought these for me to use I think that they would make either a perfect little gift set or either of them would be a perfect stocking stuffer! 'Tis The Season scent is everything you can imagine about Christmas blended into the perfect festive scent and that is why I love it! The single wick candle is the perfect size but still with a long lasting burn and the adorable hand sanitizer is perfect to carry around in your handbag or pocket giving you a little bit of festive freshness! I don't know if i'm the only person who likes to change the soap scent for the season which is why I thought it would be perfect seeing as I just finished the hand soap I had in my bathroom! Not only is the packaging so pretty this scent smells amazing with a blend of red apples, fresh cinnamon and cloves what better way to get into the festive spirit!

Blogmas Day 4 | Lush Christmas Love

When my two favourite things Lush and Christmas come together I get very excited! I love so many of the products this year that I have decided to talk about some of my favourites that I can't stop using! Not all of their Christmas range has really christmassy scents like cinnamon and cloves, some of them do but not all they are just all beautiful and look so festive, I love them!  Below are the products I want to make sure I stock up on for the rest of the year!

-Shoot For The Stars Bath Bomb-

-Gold Fun-

-Rose Jam Shower Gel-

-Stardust Bath Bomb-

Blogmas Day 3 | Peppermint Bark

One of my favourite Christmas treats to make is my peppermint bark, it's delicious and is always popular with my friends and family! It is one layer of peppermint flavoured milk chocolate then a layer or white chocolate and then topped with crushed candy cane! It's really easy to make and so delicious! It's also really easy to tweak the recipe to the way you want using dark chocolate etc. Below is the recipe!

Ingredients:

452g of Milk Chocolate Chips

452g of White Chocolate Chips

1/2 tsp Peppermint Extract

8 Peppermint Candy Canes- crushed 

Directions:

1) Line a 12inch X 18inch pan with parchment paper.

2) Fill a saucepan with a small amount of water and place a glass bowl on top, large enough to sit on top, fill with the milk chocolate and heat on low slowly until the milk chocolate has melted.

3) Whilst on the heat add the peppermint extract and stir, work quickly  as the chocolate can start to thicken, remove from the heat and carefully pour the melted milk chocolate into the tin, using a spatula spread evenly and place in fridge for 30 minutes or until hardened.

4) Once the milk chocolate has hardened remove from fridge. 

5) Melt the white chocolate in the same way and pour over the top of the milk chocolate and use a spatula to spread evenly.

6) Top with the crushed candy canes and place in fridge for an hour.

7) Once hardened, break up and enjoy!

Blogmas Day 2 | Christmas Market

I love Christmas markets, when I was back in England I used to go to Germany to visit the Christmas markets there because they were absolutely spectacular, wandering the cobbled streets filled with the sweet sounds of Christmas music whilst sipping mulled wine, festive perfection!  Whilst i'm so sad that I can't go this year I still wanted to get into the festive spirit so off to the local Christmas market we went! It was actually so lovely, snow was falling softly creating the most perfect Christmas scene, as we wandered around the different market stalls and drinking mulled wine, it was so festive and fun! I didn't end up buying anything, although some of the stalls had some delicious festive chocolates and homemade fudge as well as gorgeous handmade decorations and gifts, but it was just lovely to be in that atmosphere and have fun! It's one of my favourite things to do this time of year and I would definitely recommend  you do it too!

 

Blogmas Day 1 | Advent Calendars

I'm so excited to start my first day of Blogmas!! In spirit of being December 1st and I know many of you will be opening your advent calendars today, I thought my post should be all about them, there are so many different ones out there now, there is pretty much one for anyone whether your love is candles, beauty, tea or just chocolate then there's one for you. In true style of my blog I have been obsessing over all the beauty ones this year from Benefit to The Body Shop but also who can resist the chocolate ones ?! I decided this year to get  both a chocolate and beauty advent calendar and after standing in Sephora debating over this years Benefit advent calendar I decided to put it back down and walk away... compared to last years size of 24 days it have been squished down to a 12 day which is already a huge disappointment and for $60 I just didn't feel like it was what I wanted... If I had been back home in England this Christmas though I probably would have been very tempted because of the cheaper price! I know a lot of them can be quite pricey and if you have the money to treat yourself then why not but this year I decided to go for a beauty brand I really like which is less expensive and just a fun little treat every day! Hard Candy released a 12 Days Of Beauty calendar and a 12 Days Of Nails calendar which means lots of beauty fun for the full countdown, below is a little sneak peek of what goodies are behind those colourful metallic doors!
