What I Got For Christmas 2019

 Hey beaut's!!!

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and stuffed your faces with all the pigs in blankets and chocolate because I know I did! I'm so sad Christmas is all over for another year though, I absolutely love the build up, the pretty decorations and the twinkling lights but hey, today I thought I'd keep things slightly festive and join in on the 'What I Got For Christmas' bandwagon, personally I love reading these type of posts or watching them on youtube, I just love seeing what lovely gifts everyone received. I was so lucky this year and received some amazing gifts from my family, boyfriend and friends and I really am grateful and truly thankful for everything I got! Anyway lets get going...

So lets kick things off with makeup and beauty, there wasn't actually much makeup on my Christmas wish list this year which is a first for me, I did however really want to try the Morphe Continuous Setting Mist and the Morphe Highlight and Contour Sponge so I did actually ask my Mum for those, she also picked me up the Soap & Glory 'The Mask Force Five Set' and the Soap & Glory 'Brow Sweet' gift set, bless her, she knows I'm a Soap & Glory addict! My boyfriend Michael was naughty and treated me to the Jaclyn Hill X Morphe Eye Master Collection which I've lusted over for years, and he got me the beautiful Anastasia Eyeshadow Vault which contains the Soft Glam and the Modern Renaissance Palettes, and honestly the vault is stunning, the pictures just dont do it justice!

Michael really did spoil me... last year he got me the Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall Lego Set which I had no idea I was getting but once I completed it I got a little bit Lego obsessed so Mike got me the Harry Potter Clock Tower Lego Set this year! I couldn't believe it, apparently it joins onto/goes with the Great Hall too, I'm currently half way through and I've caught the Lego bug again, it's so addictive! Mike also got me the most precious Harry Potter music box which you wind up yourself and it plays the iconic Harry Potter theme song, I LOVE this so much and haven't stopped winding it up since I got it!
Another gift from my parents was this massive Yankee Candle Set, you'll probably already know I'm a crazy candle lady so this is the perfect gift for me, it's crammed full of different sized festive Yankee Candles which are always my favourite scents, I cant wait to get burning!

My secret Santa at work got me some Lush bit's which I really appreciate as I haven't had any festive Lush bits this year - mainly because of how pricey Lush is these days - so it was such a nice treat to get those! And finally how beautiful is my new Pandora ring, I LOVE IT!!!

So that's all of my gorgeous gifts I received this year beaut's! Me and Mike also received some tins of biscuits which I think will last us a lifetime ha ha and we received some money and vouchers to share between us so I think a shopping trip will be in order very soon!

What did you get for Christmas beaut's?? Leave me your links below as I'd love to see.

What I Got For Christmas 2018

 Hey beaut's!!!

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas and stuffed your faces with all the pigs in blankets and chocolate because I know I did! I'm so sad Christmas is all over for another year though, I absolutely love the build up and the pretty decorations but hey, today I thought I'd keep things slightly festive and join in on the 'What I Got For Christmas' bandwagon, personally I love reading these type of posts and seeing what lovely gifts everyone received. I was so lucky this year and received some lovely gifts from my family, boyfriend and friends and I really am grateful and truly thankful for everything I got! Anyway lets get going...
So lets kick things off with makeup, their wasn't actually much makeup on my Christmas wish list this year which is a first for me, but the one thing I had been longing for was the Huda Beauty New Nude Palette, and seeing as it's a hefty £56.00 I knew it would be something I would never buy myself but my boyfriend Mike treated me to it and I'm so thankful because look how stunning it is! As Mike knows what a makeup addict I am he also got me a Benefit set which was exclusive to Boot's this year, it's has some great full size bit's in it as well as some travel sized goodies so I cant wait to start using them! My Mum and Dad then got me the Too Faced Under The Christmas Tree Set which has a whopping three palettes inside as well as a travel sized Better Than Sex Mascara, my Mum done so well bless her, she stalks my Instagram for ideas apparently LOL! 
 My Mum and Dad also picked me up the Soap & Glory The Mask Force Five Set, the Christmas Edition Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish and a Lush Bath Bomb Gift Set, all of which I absolutely adore so thank you so much Mum and Dad, they also got me some Topshop Joni Jeans but I completely forgot to photograph those, oops! 
 One thing I couldn't believe my boyfriend Mike got me was the Harry Potter Hogwarts Great Hall Lego set, this is something I've often seen in shops and said to Mike I'd love to build it and he only went and got it for me bless him, I'm actually half way though making it already because isn't Lego addictive....I have a strange feeling Lego building could be my new hobby LOL! Mike also picked me up a bottle of Jimmy Choo Blossom perfume too because he knows it's my go to fragrance for Spring/Summer so I'm now stocked up with a big 100ml bottle!
My bestie Kate knows me so well, she got a Yankee Candle bauble because I'm such a candle addict, a baking cook book because one of my main hobbies is baking and the Maybelline Line and Prime Gift Set which is just me all over, thanks so much girl! And finally Mike picked me up a new hand whizzer, this was actually on my Christmas list as the last hand whizzer I had literally blew up a couple of months a go so I was in desperate need of a new one! He also got me the most precious Beauty and the Beast music box which you wind up yourself and it plays the Beauty and the Beast theme song, I LOVE this so much and haven't stopped winding it up since I got it!
So that's all of my gorgeous gifts I received this year beaut's! I also received some tins of chocolates and biscuits that I think will last me a lifetime ha ha and I received some money too so I think a shopping trip will be in order very soon I'm sure!!!

What I Got For Christmas 2016

 Hey beaut's!!!

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas, I'm so sad its all over for another year but today I thought I'd join in on the 'What I Got For Christmas' bandwagon, personally I love reading these type of posts and seeing what lovely gifts everyone receives. I must have been a very good girl this year as I received lots of lovely gifts from my family, boyfriend and friends and I really am grateful and truly thankful for everything I got! Anywho lets get going...

The only thing I had put on my Christmas list this year was a new pair of GHD's, my original ones which I've had for about 6 years or so broke back in October and I had been longing for a new pair, and on Christmas morning my wishes came true when I opened some of the Copper Luxe ones from my boyfriend bless him. I also received quite a few makeup bits and pieces from my boyfriend as he knows what a makeup addict I am, he got me the Real Techniques Bold Metals Eye Set, Too Faced Merry Macaroons Eyeshadow palette, the Charlotte Tilbury Bauble and the Smashbox Primer Set, he's such a good egg isn't he.


 From my Mum and Dad this year I received the Benefit Dolly Darling Set and the Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette, I always eye up the Naked 2 palette when me and Mum are out shopping because I've needed it to complete my Naked set for ages and bless my Mum, she remembered and got it for me. They also got me the cutest PJ's and a new dressing gown, I mean Christmas isn't Christmas without new PJ's is it! My bestie treated me to a HUGE Soap and Glory Set and the cutest 'Little Miss Blogger' mug which I absolutely adore, she knows me so well he he!
 My boyfriends parents spoilt me this year with some new little booties, some Lush goodies and some of my favourite Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish but in the Orange and Clove Christmas edition, which I have to say is the best scent ever!!!
Finally I was in total shock when I opened up my very last present from my boyfriend, it was the Canon Selphy CP1200. He knows how much I love my photography and that I'm really sentimental and love having photo's of all my memories up and around my house and in scrapbooks, and this printer not only prints photos from your camera but it connects to your phone via wifi so you can print all your memories from your phone. I absolutely love this and it was such a thoughtful thing for him to get me, I never even knew such a cool thing existed he he.

So that's all of my gorgeous gifts, my goodness I'm a lucky girl!!! I also received a tonne of chocolate and biscuits that I think will last me a lifetime ha ha and this year me and Michael received some money too so I think a shopping trip will be in order very soon I'm sure!!!

Hey beaut's!!!

I hope you all had an amazing Christmas, I'm so sad its all over for another year but today I thought I'd join in on the 'What I Got For Christmas' bandwagon, personally I love reading these type of posts and seeing what lovely gifts everyone receives. I must have been a very good girl this year as I received lots of lovely gifts from my family, boyfriend and friends and I really am grateful and truely thankful for everything I got! Anywho lets get going...

Firstly I received some gorgeous beauty related gifts from my boyfriend Michael, we live together so he knows first hand how much I love my makeup and beauty and he certainly done well this year didn't he! Firstly he bought me one of my all time favourite perfumes Ghost Deep Night, then the Benefit Real Cheeky Party Gift Set that admittedly I've been going on about for ages, the MAC Pigments Gift Set from their Holiday Collection and the Lush Christmas Candy Box because he knows I'm obsessed with Lush and to be honest he loves a good ole Lush bath too so I'll be good and share that gift set with him he he. As well as all of those lovely gifts Michael also got me a dress which I wore Christmas day, some slippers, boots and a bobble hat all from New Look and lastly there was one big, slim box under the tree right at the back and when I quickly unwrapped it I revealed a Laptop! Yup he totally spoilt me and I'm so so lucky.
 My Mum and Dad really spoilt me too and bought me some lovely gifts including the gorgeous Pandora Princess Ring which can you beleive is my very first Pandora jewellery item and I'm so so in love with it. They also got me the Soap and Glory The Zest A Girl Can Get Gift Set as my Mum knows I love Soap and Glory and the Sugar Crush scent is my favourite, they also picked me up a new Oral B Electric Toothbrush which I did actually ask for when they asked if their was anything I wanted because my one that I've had for years broke so I was desperate to get a new one. Finally my Mum bless her knows how much I love my makeup brushes and picked me up the Real Techniques Bold Metals Collection which I used for the first time yesterday and oh my goodness those brushes are like makeup brushes on steroids, they are amazing!
My girls treated me to some lovely gifts too including more Soap and Glory and The Great British Bake Off Cookbook, thank you Kates Closet he he! And my friend Amie got me a Yankee Candle Votive Cracker and Votive Holder, some So Snug Cosy Socks and a variety of M&Ms, yummy! I also received another Yankee Candle set off of my Auntie too as she knows I'm a crazy candle lady he he!
So that's most of my gorgeous gifts, my goodness I'm a lucky girl!!! I also received a tonne of chocolate and biscuits that I think will last me a lifetime ha ha and this year me and Michael received some money so I think a shopping trip will be in order very soon I'm sure!!!

What I Got For Christmas 2013 ♥

Hey girlie's!!!

Today I thought I'd join in on the 'What I Got For Christmas' bandwagon, personally I love reading these type of posts and seeing what lovely gifts everyone receives, I know this is abit of a love/hate post so I just want to add a little disclaimer that in no way am I bragging/ showing off, I'm a super lucky lady to receive all the lovely gifts I got and I really am grateful and thankful!!! Anywhoo lets get going....

Beauty/Make-Up/Perfume


Firstly let me just squeal in excitement at the fact my boyfriend Michael managed to get me the Naked 3 Palette...Eeeek!!!!! Words cannot describe how much I'm in love with this palette, its just so beautiful!!! Michael also got me the gorgeous Ted Baker Large Make-Up Bag, I've been lusting after one for a super long time so I'm thrilled to have one, its so cute!!! My Mum & Dad then surprised me with some MAC goodies & a Urban Decay Mascara,  it just goes to show my Mum doest actually switch off when I talk to her about make-up constantly ha ha bless her. 
Bath Sets
I'm a huge Soap & Glory lover, everything about the brand is amazing in my eyes so I was super thankful for these 2 beaut's. My Mum & Dad got me the 'Once Upon A Lime' Set which smells absolutely incredible, its so refreshing and will definitely wake me up when I have my morning shower. The 'Bright and Bubbly' Set was from Michael and contains 4 miniature Soap & Glory classics and a body buffer, this little lot is definitely going to keep me going for a while.
Electrical
Michael spoilt me so much this year bless him as the 'Remington Pearl Pro Curler' was a gift from him also, this past year I've really got into curly/wavy/textured hair so I'm super excited to try out this bigger barrelled curler and see what looks I can create. The 'Oral-B Electric Toothbrush' and 'Paloma Floral Lamp' where gifts from Michael's parents, after using the electric toothbrush I actually cant believe how nice your teeth feel afterwards compared to when you use a standard toothbrush, its bizarre but great ha ha. 
Candles
If you know me you will know I'm obsessed with Yankee Candles, I always have them burning everyday in my house, I'm such a crazy candle lady he he!!! I received a medium 'Beach Walk' candle from my Auntie, I must admit it's never really caught my eye when buying candles in the past, but my goodness it smells incredible!!! My Mum and Dad kindly got me a Christmas Samplers Selection, they know how much I love my Christmassy scents ha ha and Michael's parents bought me the large Apple Spice candle which again smells incredible.

Slippers
Oh my... How stinking cute are these slippers from Next!!! My Mum and Dad got these little beaut's for me and they are literally the softest most cosy slippers that my feet have ever seen ha ha.

Blogging Goodies
I actually couldn't believe my eyes when I opened up this... a Portable Photo Studio!!!!! How amazing!!!!! I've been lusting after lighting for my blog pictures for a while as taking blog photos at this time of the year is impossible so this present has just answered alot of my prayers ha ha, I love the fact that the set is all portable, making it so easy and lightweight to carry around and if I only want to use the lights out of the set I can or If I just need the tripod etc. I'm really looking forward to having a play around/photo session soon and hopefully my picture quality will improve. Major boyfriend points for Michael for treating me to this ha ha. 

So that's most of my gorgeous gifts, my goodness I'm a lucky girl!!! I also received some comical stocking filler gifts, a tonne of chocolate that I think will last me a lifetime ha ha and this year me and Michael received quite alot of money so we will be treating ourselves in the sales I'm sure!!!
