Project 365/90 Dr. Bronner's

I was sent the above two Dr Bronner's products to review. First of all was the Dr Bronner's Magic Soaps; the soap is a tea tree pure-castile soap made with organic oils. I found the soap consistency very smooth, kind on my sensitive skin and left my hands feeling lovely and soft afterwards. All i needed was a little drop of the soap rubbed into my hands and that was more than enough product, a little really does go a long way. The soap is £1.99 and is available from www.drbronner.com.

Secondly was the Dr Bronner's Magic All-One Organic Fair Trade Shaving Soap Gel. I tried the Lemongrass Lime which was just the right scent for me, a distinctive smell but not too overpowering, quite pleasant. First of all i wet my skin, put a blob of the shaving gel onto my hand and then massaged the product into the skin and then shaved, afterwards i rinsed my skin well with water. This product worked fabulously, it does just what it's intended to do and removed any unwanted hair fantastically. The product was so moisturising and my skin felt super smooth and soft afterwards, a definite recommendation from me. The Product cost £6.99 and is available from www.drbronner.com.

Project 365/89 NOTD

Hello Ladies, i hope you have all had a lovely weekend. Did you get upto much? Friday night i went for a meal and on Saturday me and my Fiance went to our very first wedding fayre. I think i'm pretty set on and know what kind of wedding i want; traditional but with a few modern day twists, exciting stuff.

I thought i'd share with you my NOTD. I bought the Models Own Pro "Clay Away" polish, £8 from a Boots store yesterday. I like the shade, but in all honestly i couldn't tell the difference with the normal version of the Models Own polish and the Pro version. The only difference for me was the £3 price difference. This one wasn't easier in application plus still needed 2/3 coats.

Project 365/88 February Glossy Box

Hello everyone, i hope you have all had a lovely weekend. My March Glossy Box arrived today so i thought i'd share with you all what i received in my box:

* Dr Bronners Magic Soap
* Paul Mitchell Super Skinny Relaxing Balm
* Como Shambhala Invigorate Body Lotion
* BM Beauty Pure Mineral Eyeshadow
* Duwop Venom Gloss

I have to admit that nothing in the box excites me, i found it rather disappointing in all honesty, all of the samples were quite teeny and not something which i would call a "luxury" item.

I think i'm going to try one more box and that shall be my lot. Maybe i'm expecting a little too much from Glossy Box? Afterall £12.95 each month isn't the be all and end all plus is a nice treat to receive but then again that money could be going towards a product which i really love.

What do you think? I would love to hear your thoughts.

Project 365/87 Products of the Month - L'Oreal

My favourite products from the month goes to L'Oreal, products pictured above are:

* L'Oreal Eyelining Gel
* L'Oreal Super Pen
* L'Oreal False Lash Telescopic Infinite Length Effect Fibers

The liners give great application, amazing quality and last throughout the night. Thumbs up from me.

As the majority of you know, i'm a huge fan of mascara's and have tried and tested most on the market. The L'Oreal one above is lush, great packaging and brush, applies fabulously, gives great length and a long lasting colour. It's the mascara which i'm now using daily, definitely up there in my top 5.

Project 365/86 Sponsored Video, Joop

Joop as been one of my favourite smells of scent for as long as i can remember, it helps that my boyfriend is also a huge fan ;).

Watching the above video made me giggle; Men, do you remember this night, when trying to hit on the perfect girl, this cool dude just cut you in the middle of your approach and made fun of your stammering? James says never let this happen again! It’s time to take your revenge on these seducers-to-be. If you want love, prepare war. So you’d better be an expert in the art of eliminating your rivals. See how in this new lesson in seduction.

Joop comes in a large pink bottle, but don't let the girlyness of the shade of the bottle put you off, it's definitely a masculine smell.

Joop! Homme Aftershave is a mix of warm honey and sweet jasmine combining together with spicy cinnamon and a hint of tobacco for a scent that is original and fascinating.

The perfect gift for the male in your life.

Project 365/85 Sponsored Video, Merino Wool, No Finer Feeling

Merino wool as long been a favourite of designers because of it's versatility and quality, which inspires the designers. Although Merino wool is a favoured fibre amongst designers; the growth of disposable fashion has meant that younger consumers know little about its benefits, which brings me onto my next question; budget vs quality? Which one do you choose?

I think the majority of us are aware that 9 times out of 10 we do get the quality in which we pay for. I've bought many knitwear items from the likes of Primark, New Look etc but they don't last me throughout the years, a season or so if i'm lucky. I do think investing in good quality knitwear as merino wool; that you do get fantastic quality for your money and a piece of clothing which lasts you throughout the years rather than just a few months or so.

Merino wool is the perfect fibre; natural, biodegradable and renewable, therefore ensuring the best quality. Soft to the touch which feels fantastic against my skin combined with a little luxury, this would definitely be my first choice of knit.

Mr asked me to marry him on Friday and i said yes. We chose the ring together, which is pictured above (so hard to picture, it looks even more prettier irl), princess cut diamond ring which i love. I'm still a little bit eek about the price of it and i'm still a little scared that i'll lose it.

I'm looking forward to the wedding planning and i promise i won't turn into a Bridezilla.... hehe.
