Life and January Goals 2017 Update

Its been a while since I've just sat down and had a chat with you guys about what's going on in my life, and because there is so much going on at the moment - and I've been promising a life update for ages! - I thought that now would be a good time.

January Favourites 2017

Firstly I must apologies for these pictures. I'm really not happy with them, but I'm so short of time at the moment that I'm having to work with what I've got. It doesn't help that I mostly use natural lighting and it is so dreary at the moment. When I've got some time, and some decent lighting, I will definitely be re-shooting.

*Blog update: I have re-shot and I am much happier with the pictures now :) *

My Curly Hair Routine

Long time readers will know that I have something of a love-hate relationship with my hair (read more here). Either it behaves itself, in which case I love it, but most of the time it doesn't and I actively despise it.

The 6 lipsticks that live in my handbag

l-r: Nyx Soft Matte Lip Cream in San Paulo, L'oreal Color Riche Lipstick in Julianne's Nude, Revlon Colorburst Balm Stain in Honey, Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Matte Lipstick in Pommie Girl, Nyx Matte Lipstick in Tea Rose & Collection Velvet Kiss Moisturising Lip Cream in Cotton Candy. 

I emptied my handbag for the first time in ages the other day and nestled amongst the empty chewing gum packets, Costa receipts and a quite frankly astounding number of pens I found not one or even two, but six lipsticks! How I managed to squeeze all that in my bag and still use it as a functional handbag I don't know, but I did it. Some of them have been in there so long I thought I'd lost them but I digress.

February Goals 2017

Once the excitement of Christmas and New Year is out of the way winter becomes incredibly dull so I'm really glad February's here, bringing with it slightly longer days and slightly brighter mornings. I am so ready for spring! Seriously, bring it on! Anyway lets chat goals because, like always, I have a few of them.
