Dior Nail Glow

When it comes to my nails i can be pretty slack at taking care of them which is crazy because they are my money makers ;-), however i have made a conscious decision this year to look after them more and to make them look pretty.

I recently got my hands on the Dior Nail Glow which isn't a new product but it's new to me. The idea behind nail glow is to make the pinks of your nails pinker and the white tips whiter. It definitely makes my nails looks shiny, more groomed, manicured, well looked after and more pink but i'm not sure if the tips look any whiter.

I love this for day when you don't fancy wearing colour and you can always wear it as a base coat and top coat alongside your normal nail polishes. This retails for £18 and you get check it out HERE

Elemis Skin Bliss Capsules Anniversary Duo

Not that i'm complaining but once again we getting a change in the weather in the UK, at the minute it seems for the better however i'm sure you all know just how quickly it can all go wrong and start raining again. This generally means one thing for me, my skin changes once again due to the different temperatures going on, i can go slightly more dry and de-hydrated than normal so i love to give my skin a little treat to help it in it's transition.

I have used the Elemis skin bliss capsules before and they were just incredible, the normal 30 day pot you get it such a treat for your skin which makes it glowing and healthy. For their 10th Anniversary Elemis have put together this duo with 60 capsules in each pot (so double the regular amount) including 2 mini travel pots for when you are on the move.

The pink pot (the day capsules) contains the rose capsules with a blend of pure moringa oil and rose absolute to renew and revitalise the skin and the green pot (the evening capsules) contains the lavender capsules which contain a blend of moringa oil and lavender essential oil which helps to restore and repair the skin overnight.

These capsules definitely help to sort my skin when it is having a little freak out and this is such an amazing duo for yourself or would make an amazing mothers day present. With the retail price being £79.50 (worth £124) you all need to snap one of these up. You can get them HERE

My Health and Fitness 90 Day Challenge

So one of the things i get asked the most is about my health and fitness routine and as i aim to please i thought i would tell you about my challenge.

I have started the 90 day challenge from Body by Vi, i have been on it for almost a month now and so far i am absolutely loving it! One of the biggest problems i have is i am a real carb lover, which for me is not great because it makes me feel uncomfortable and bloated so i have to make a conscious effort to eat other things to fill myself up.

I have a shake for breakfast either on it's own or with a piece of fruit and depending on my work schedule i either have another one for lunch and a healthy dinner or a will have a healthy lunch, another as an afternoon snack and then a healthy dinner.
The meals i have are usually chicken based or definitely some sort of protein with lots of vegetables, if i fancy something sweet after my meal i have also got the protein cookies from Vi in chocolate chip or peanut flavour. They are a chewy texture which i prefer in a cookie rather than crunchy and if you pop them in the microwave for a couple of seconds they are mega yummy! As you can tell i am loving this challenge so i can't wait to see the results at the end of the 90 days, if you want to check out the following websites they will give you all of the information you need if you are interested in starting the challenge yourself. http://jemimalouuk.bodybyvi.com/  http://jemimalouuk.myvi.net/  http://jemimalouuk.myvi.net/challenge  http://jemimalouuk.myvi.net/profile/index.html

EOS Limited Edition Spring Lip Balm Duo

As a beauty blogger i have obviously heard so much about EOS lip balms and wanted to try them but have never had the chance, so when i got these in the post i was thrilled and so excited to get them on my lips!

In this limited edition pack you get two flavours, strawberry sorbet and passion fruit. They both smell absolutely divine and feel so nice on the lips, i like the fact that they aren't too greasy and slippy, they just feel really nourishing. They are the perfect handbag lip balm as they take up hardly any space and you don't have to keep putting your fingers in it you can just use it like you would a stick balm.

This great set costs £10.50 which is a steal for 2 great lip balms, check them out HERE

Elemis Jasmine and Rose Milk Bath

I'm not much of a bath person i tend to favour a shower, however once in a while i just want to get into a hot bubble bath and just relax! I have used the original milk bath from Elemis which was amazing so when this came through the post i was so excited to give it a go.

You only need the cap fulls in the bath so this 400ml bottle will last me forever! The bubbles smell so divine it fills the whole bathroom, it makes the skin feel so soft and i must admit i nearly fell asleep because the smell is so relaxing.

If you love a good bath, you need to be getting your hands on this. This retails at £42 and you can get it from HERE
