Glossybox - Summer is Here

This month's Glossybox arrived a couple of days ago and I've finally had the time to write a short review on the amazing products the Glossybox team hid inside. 'Summer is Here' is June's box theme and these 5 products complement each other perfectly.





I am going to start with my favourite from the box - So Susan Cosmetics Concealer Quad - RRP £20

 It is brand new to me and I think the brand itself is quite young too - founded in 2012 by Susan Chyi. This concealer is formulated with virgin marula oil and it can be used to cover minor blemishes and imperfections. Its lightweight formula makes it ideal for summer. It blends in perfectly and very easily. 

I also bought myself their Universal Blush, which I saw some people receiving in their Glossybox. My friend was one of the lucky ones and I just fell in love with this natural blush and had to get it myself.





The next one is a new launch from nailgirls 3-in-1 base, topcoat and nail strengthener - RRP £13.50 for 15ml

 I am loving nail hardeners at the moment. I just finished my Nails Inc clear nail polish and was really happy to find a new one in the box!


A few days ago I made a little Avon order for some new eye shadows and was also thinking of getting new brushes - I think I know now which ones to go for - Teeez Trend Cosmetics Beautiful Flat Still Brush - RRP €19 around £15 

This make-up brush is essential for my kit. It is a good quality brush, which allows me to apply powder and cream eye shadow with ease. I also like how summery it looks. Beautiful!




The next item is from French brand Roger&Gallet. Their Fleur de Figuier Eau Fraiche Fragrance has a lovely fresh fruit-floral smell. I would wear it more as a casual going-to-town-perfume and leave my other favourite scents (Dior, Viktor&Rolf) for evening events. This is a 10ml sample, 100ml is £32. 


And lastly we come to Emballeze Novex Brazilian Keratin - RRP £24.99 for 1kg, mine is a sample size 100g. 

 This vitamin E enriched treatment replenishes essential hair proteins, resulting in shinier and smoother hair. I think I have to take a day off to try this keratin treatment on my hair. Hair needs to be washed and dried, the deep conditioning treatment applied and massaged afterwards and then leaving it to develop for 15 minutes, before again showering and rinsing well - finally in the end drying with a hair dryer. I will definitely try it in the future. It is perfect hair food for bringing back health and shine after spending lots of time in the sun. 

I just love this month's Glossybox. It is absolutely worth my £10 and as I read from the Glossy magazine (a little spoiler for people considering subscribing) next month will be an exciting one with a limited edition box print and theme! Can't wait!

Kayla Itsines Bikini Body Guide - Starting again

The last time I posted about my workout regime was in November last year when I started the Kayla Itsines BBG healthy eating plan and 12 week workout sessions. I think I got up to week 4 before I lost my motivation because of illness and Christmas. My friend Marianne and I started BBG again on the 5th of January with thousands of other girls and joined #thekaylamovement and #kaylasarmy to share our journey along this painful but exciting path.  You can read my first post about the BBG programme here as I am explaining a bit more on how I 'found' Kayla and how the training works.  I have done BBG for 5 weeks now (the first 2 weeks we did pre-training) and I'm feeling quite positive. I've not seen much progress myself - I still have my weak areas like tummy, bum and thighs. I do feel much stronger though! I'm doing all of the workouts properly, I have strength in my legs and arms - it is quite easy to do 10 push ups and continue with triceps and mountain clim...

Esimene trimester ehk esimesed kolm kuud \\ beebi number 2

Tere blogi, Jah, üllatus, üllatus, ma olen rase! Esimene trimester on läbi ja teen küsimused-vastused varjandis blogipostituse. Ausalt öeldes ei olnud mul just kõige kergem algus- jõetus, väsimus, iiveldamine ja oksendamine kestsid 6. nädalast kuni 13. nädalani. Ei tuleks vist eriti huvitav postitus, kui ma peaks kirjutama, kuidas ma kõik need nädalad voodis veetsin ja mitu korda päevas vetsupotti kallistasin, nii siis vastan pigem mõnedele esimese trimestriga seotud küsimustele.   Kuidas sa avastasid, et sa oled rase ja kuidas sa Tristanile ütlesid? Ühel reede hommikul ärkasin varem, et trenni teha. Jooksin jooksulindi peal umbes 30 minutit ja terve selle aja tundsin end imelikult. Umbes 5 minutit enne jooksmise lõppu tuli mul üles mega suur röhitsus ja natuke maomahla. See tunne oli nii tuttav! Tagasi tuppa tulles tegin veel Tristanile nalja, et olen vist rase. Terveks päevaks jäi see mõte mind kummitama ja ma ütlesin Tristanile, et peaks igaks juhuks rasedustesti tegema. Jä...

10 things to do in Rockhampton

I have still a couple more posts coming up about my Australian trip. I hope they are an interesting read! After Brisbane , we flew to Tristan's hometown Rockhampton where we spent the remaining 2 weeks of our holiday. Rockhampton is a small city in Queensland with a population of around 62,000 people. Rockhampton experiences over 300 days of sunshine each year, which means it is a good place for tourism and outdoor activities. Known as the "Beef Capital of Australia" there is much more to do than just sit in the pub and eat burgers! I have made a list of 10 things you can do around Rockhampton. 1. Rockhampton Kershaw Botanical Gardens are a well visited attraction in Rockhampton. The park has many paved walking paths, rest areas, drinking fountains and beautiful scenery with many palms and tropical flowers.   2. Quay Street in Rockhampton is full of beautiful architecture and old buildings. The city centre (main street) is not very big but I think we spent at ...
