Glossybox UK - Step into Spring

Time to open another box. I've been subscribed to Glossybox for over a year now and I have honestly been thinking of cancelling my subscription for a while. Then suddenly this happens - this month's box is full of interesting brands I have never heard of! This month we have 5 full size products for only £10 + P&P.


Spring is finally here with a 'Step into Spring' theme. The new season brings a fresh approach - more colours, new products and a change to our beauty regime.


 

NAOBAY Moisturizing Peeling - full size, 100ml for £13.71

NAOBAY is a Spanish eco-brand with an amazing message - natural and organic ingredients are better for our body and the environment. The packaging is stylish, attractive, unique and every container comes from recycled or recyclable materials. This organic facial peeling milk with particles from the Acai palm tree peels gently, exfoliates the skin and removes surface cells and impurities. It helps reduce the appearance of fine lines by combining Olive oil, Shea butter and Sweet Almond oil with Gotu Kola extract that helps soothe the skin after the peel.




Dove Advanced Hair Series Youthful Vitality Shampoo & Conditioner - sample size (50ml), £5.99 for 250ml

This lightweight and hydrating duo helps to heal long and ageing hair, replenish lost nutrients and leaves the hair stronger, sleeker and looking twice as thick. I am not a big fan of Dove products but I guess it can only be good and healthy to change your shampoo and conditioner once in a while. I will give these two a chance. 




Essence Lash Princess Volume Mascara - full size, 12ml for £3.30

With a price tag of £3.30, I am not expecting much from this mascara. The new lash princess mascara has a specially shaped cobra brush which promises to cover each individual lash for breathtaking volume with a great curl. I am really picky about mascaras and there are only a few I can say that work for me. I will definitely test it out, as I am super curious to find out how well it will work on my eyes.



Sleek MakeUP Pout Paint in shade Rosette - full size, £4.99 for 8ml

Sleek MakeUP is one of my favourite drug store brands, so I was really happy to find it in the box. I have never tried their Pout Paint though, so it is quite an interesting product for me. It has a high pigmentation, provides lips with intense colour and has a long-lasting finish. Pout Paint is made to be mixed with another lip colour for different shades, so the possibilities are endless.


 

ncLA Nail Lacquer in shade Like... Totally Valley Girl - full size, £13 for 15ml

I have not heard of this brand before but apparently it is ncLA's best selling shade. It is free of toxins and has a quick-dry formula. I love neon pastel colours, so I love this beautiful pink colour to start Spring!

 

I think Glossybox this month has made an improvement, I hope they keep it up!

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 ...
