Benefit Gimme Brow


Most of the time my eyebrows drive me mad.  The hairs seem to want to always point downwards, which is definitely not a good look.  Thankfully I discovered clear mascara pretty early on, which seemed to help, but I wanted something to add a bit of colour and definition too.  I tried brown mascara and  a few high-street offerings, but I never found what I was looking for.  I'd read countless good reviews of this tiny product, so I snapped it up using a Feel Unique discount code.

Veronica Roth: Divergent Trilogy


By chance one evening, Rob and I watched the Divergent film and we loved it.  As soon as it was finished I headed to Amazon and made a quick purchase of the first book.  Immediately after finishing it, I began the second.  And then the third.  Although I'm a thriller-lover and usually stay away from this sort of story, I couldn't help being sucked into their world.  Safe to say I'm a big fan.

La Tasca


Every time I walk past a branch of La Tasca I'm drawn to the menu.  Until now I've never tried tapas food despite always fancying it.  Rob and I have been making an effort to try out new restaurants, cafes and bars around Portsmouth rather than returning to places we know we like over and over again, so last week it was La Tasca's turn.

Liz Earle Instant Radiance Collection for Oily/Combination Skin


After bringing Liz Earle's classic Cleanse and Polish back into my skincare routine after Christmas, I've fallen back in love with her skincare.  I can't get enough of the scent!  When I spotted this Instant Radience Collection in John Lewis for £25 I had to snap it up.

Gillian Flynn: Sharp Objects


Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl was a huge hit and was turned into a seriously popular film, but was her first book as impressive?
