Moshi - skin care and candles

A couple of months ago I tried out some skin care products and soy wax candles from an Estonian natural cosmetics brand called Moshi. Finding the right face cream is always a challenge for me, so I took the risk and chose face products from their lavender-geranium range for my combination skin. I also ordered two packs of scented candles. They added some lip balm to my order for free, which I am very thankful for!
Unfortunately, I was not impressed with the Lavender-Geranium Face Cream. The first 5 minutes after is applied are fine but shortly afterwards my skin becomes shiny and oily. My pores became clogged and the cream felt heavy on my face.
Lavender-Geranium Face Scrub works amazingly on my skin. The granules are tiny and the consistency feels super light. I have been using this once or twice a week and like to leave it on my skin for a few extra minutes after scrubbing. Once I have washed it off, I don't need to use toner or night/day cream to keep my face moisturised. I love how gentle it is on the skin - exactly what I need on a cold winter day.

The Lip Balm contains oils of Pumpkin and Sea buckthorn which makes this product moisturising and keeps lips soft all day. Vitamins A, C, and E give my lips an extra boost.
Moshi sell a large selection of candles. I chose two very natural sets, both of them tree scented: Merekohin (which means 'sea murmur' translated directly) which has a slight juniper scent and Fig Tree. I haven't had the chance to use them yet as I am saving them for spring!
Overall, I am pleased with Moshi products. Even though the face cream didn't really suit my skin type, the scrub and lip balm have both been number one over the last few weeks. I like how their products look so natural and neat in my bathroom.

The Body Shop Manchester Arndale Bloggers Event

I've been blogging for almost two years now but I'd still consider myself a newbie in the blogging world. On Thursday I had the chance to go to my first bloggers event at The Body Shop in Manchester to celebrate the release of an amazing new range on the 5th of May, including new bronzing items and a couple of vitamin C products! I was wearing my butterfly bow-tie brooch to the event and styled it with a white short sleeved shirt. It was a closed door event, so it was a good opportunity to browse all of the products and explore the new ones thoroughly! The event started at 8pm and I was one of the first ones to arrive. We were welcomed with milkshakes, fruit cocktails and lemonade. I went for water - shy and modest! There was also a white chocolate fountain and strawberries we had the chance to enjoy. The event was carried out by Fiona - she is a skin expert at the Manchester store. Everyone was able to get personal skin consult...

OOTD - The sun has come out!

It has been such a long time since my last fashion post, I've been missing them so much! The second the sun came out, Tristan and I went to the canal and took a few pictures. I think it is still too early for sunglasses but a light jacket is okay when you wear a jumper underneath (Primark) and a cosy leopard print scarf (Linea Cashmink) around your neck.  My black Veromoda jacket and shoes are both from Best Secret. You'll all know by now how much I've been raving about it. I think it is an amazing place for online shopping. I love the copper detailing and the simple look on my jacket, plus it's super lightweight. My trainers are by Puma & Alexander McQueen (click here to read my previous post). I also just noticed that I don't have any good shots of my Michael Kors bag, which I absolutely adore by the way! I'm sure everybody knows how beautiful these bags are so I think this will do for now. The bag and scarf were both Christmas presents fr...

Lilla Rose Flexi Clips

  Today I want to talk a bit about my hair and my recent purchase from a company called Lilla Rose . Lilla Rose is a unique hair and jewellery accessory company from the US. They have many different hair items but I was more interested in their beautiful and well-known Flexi Clip. I got myself two of these - Autumn's Delight in size small and Festive Leaf in extra small. Before ordering I made sure of which size would fit best for my flat and thin hair.       Both of my Flexi Clips look stunning. The beaded wire is quite bendable but strong, the sliding pin is adjustable and they feel high-quality. I chose mine in a copper/rust shade but there are also silver and gold shades and so many different styles and colours available. As I recently cut my long hair short, I don't have many options with styling. I usually just wear my hair in a ponytail or a half ponytail. Autumn's Delight fits all my hair between the clip and Festive Leaf is perfect for a smal...
