My Little Box - UK

Today I received a very exciting 'treasure chest' in the post. It is a 'My Little Box' - a box filled with carefully selected beauty products, fashion accessories and lifestyle bits. My Little Box is originally from France (it's about 3 years old) and only now have they have launched it in the UK. As a tribute, this months theme is Paris and the box is called 'My Little Parisienne Box'. I subscribed for £11 + £3.95 P&P and I am really happy, as it is amazing on the outside and on the inside.

This little sticker was on the inside. A lovely message which goes well with the box!



This is how it looks. Beautiful illustration!



An illustrated piece of card by Kanako - Each month the box is themed and designed by their in-house illustrator Kanako.





 

A page of adorable Paris themed stickers - I love stickers and I think they are a lovely idea, especially when they are so cute and you can stick them everywhere - on the fridge, computer, phone, notebook or even on the window!


 

Notebook with blank pages - There are never enough notebooks! I am quite old fashioned - I prefer using pen and paper rather than making notes on my phone or computer. It is actually a really nice notebook so I might use it for more important things like a diary.


The first 10 pages in the notebook are about their story - who they are and what to expect in future boxes.



A Parisienne Girl illustrated laptop sleeve - I am a bit sad as I can not use it as a laptop sleeve. My Sony Vaio is a bit too big for this case. My boyfriend's Mac laptop fits perfectly but I doubt he will use it!




 

I found an alternative though - I can use it to protect the books/notebooks/papers I carry around in my bag, as it folds up and noone will even know what is it actually for!



A Drawstring Bag including 3 beauty products.
 

A 30ml Laura Mercier Foundation Primer - This is a lightweight, water based gel that creates the perfect canvas for makeup application formulated for oily, sensitive and acne-prone skins. This gel forms an even, invisible layer that acts as a buffer to outside elements, expertly holding foundation for longer wear and keeping cosmetics from being absorbed into the skin. It can be also used alone to give a fresh and natural glow to naked skin.

A 10ml Nuxe Multi Purpose Dry Oil (face, body, hair) - Loved by models and beauty insiders the world over, the Nuxe Huile Prodigieuse Multi-Usage Dry Oil infuses the skin and the hair with moisture. It is lightweight and made up of natural origin ingredients with a high concentration of precious plant oils, including borage, sweet almond, hazelnut, St. John's wort, camellia, and macadamia. It is easily-absorbed and leaves skin feeling soft, supple and hydrated, with a comfortable dry touch finish. The hair looks glossy, lustrous and feels manageable.

A My Little Beauty Stylo Lumière (highlighter) - It has a velvety texture and is perfect as a concealer or can be also used on/around eyes. It is water proof and really easy to apply. This highlighter can be a eyeshadow primer or a quick foundation fixer!

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...

Minu lemmikud tooted - Austraalia eri

Tere blogi, vahelduseks kõigile nendele raseduse postitustele panin kokku väikse listi oma viimase aja lemmikutest toodetest. Olen eelistanud niinimetatud kodumaist, ehk siis kõik tooted on Austraalias tehtud-toodetud-valmistatud.   asap Revitalising Bodyscrub   Paar kuud tagasi otsisin endale uut kehakoorijat ja komistasin juhuslikult sellise brändi otsa nagu asap . Mulle meeldis just see, et nende tooted on looduslikud, vegan ja valmistatud siin Austraalias. Pudel on hea suurusega (200 ml) ja maksab 50 dollarit (umbes 30 eurot). See kehakoorija sisaldab ka minu lemmikut glükoolhapet, mis on tugev antioksüdant, põletikuvastase toimega, nahka niisutav ja stimuleerib kollageeni loomist. Kasutan suhteliselt kokkuhoidlikult - umbes vutimuna suurune kogus ja sellest piisab täiesti käia üle kohad, mis enim muret teevad. Olen kasutanud seda kehakoorijat kaks korda nädalas. Hõõrun õrnalt umbes paar minutit ja loputan siis duši all maha. Nahk on pärast mega pehme ja mina nägin mu...

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...
