…from the other half! I’m sure my partner isn’t alone in the oblivious-ness stakes. I could have tanned from white to black, dyed my hair purple and gotten a face lift and the first thing I’d be asked is “What’s for dinner?”. I’ve given up altogether on expecting...
Yes I’m feeling the need to atone for my Chanel nail polish splurge (skincare or foundation I could justify, but NAIL POLISH?!) so just in time here comes the latest Frugal Friday! Today we’re talking more winter skin essentials: specifically how to save big on your chapped skin protection....
What’s this? An awful thumbnail of Kat gurning on YouTube! Yep you guessed right, I’ve made my YouTube debut! The first video is honestly pretty desperate, but so is most of our first times right? I promise I’ll be vlogging like a pro soon! For those of you who can’t/don’t...
Today I’ll be sharing my secret on how to get renewing & repairing rosehip oil for less than 10 quid. Perfect to prepare skin for winter!
