BUBBLY AQUARIUS

Coat and smock top: Free People, Skirt: Warehouse, Bag: Fonott, Boots: Old Zara Right, can someone tell me how its almost the end of November? I mean, I swear it was Spring like five minutes ago? No? Anyway, the end of November means only one thing (aside from my best friends pink themed hen do this weekend) and that is Black Friday/ Cyber Monday/ cyber discounting week madness. It will probably just become cyber month next year it's getting that out of hand.... but complain

Ah it’s been a little while since I posted anything on beauty bits I’ve been loving of late, buuut I’m back to tell you all about some of my fave face cleansers out there that have been making my skin happy (and clean) AF over the past few months. I mentioned in one of my posts a while back that it wasn’t all too long ago that I was a face wipe kinda gal (I know, shock horror) and so haven’t actually been a serial cleanser for that long, however I'm fully transformed as I've

I am such a fan of a red lip. You could literally be wearing jeans and a t-shirt, but throw on a red lip with it and voila you’re good for an evening out! A slick of a red lip always makes me feel better too, if you’re having a bad hair day, bad skin day or hey, just a bad day in general then a bit of red lippy will always make you feel better/ look better. So I thought it’s high time I shared my faves with you guys... Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet - 51 La Bouleversante When s

A little later than anticipated (howwww is it December already?!) but better late than never right? My top five beauty picks from November... Glossier Cloud Paint So if you have been living under a rock for the past month and are unaware - American cult beauty brand Glossier now ship to the UK (yayyyy!) and the news has thrown the British female (and some male for that matter) population into an absolute frenzy. So obviously I just had to place an order didn't I? Y'know, see

Jacket: & Other Stories, Blouse: Zara, Jeans: Topshop, Boots: By Far, Beret: Depop, Basket bag: Ebay Exactly one year ago today I wrote my first ever post on www.bubblyaquarius.com (see it here) and wow, what a year it's been! First and foremost I need to mention the other half of this operation - behind the scenes, snapping all of the pics (even in the mornings when he's going to be late for work) - my boyfriend Elliott. As a non-social media enthusiast (he doesn't even have

I feel like my face has been treat like an absolute queen this month - and rightly so really since Winter is drawing in and dry skin is looming. So without further ado, here are my top five prods I've been obsessing over throughout October: Crude Oil Cleansing Starter kit Crude is a plant based cleansing system completely free of soap, detergent, and synthetic chemicals which is so gentle on the skin and doesn't strip your face of it's natural oils. I got the oil cleansing st

It's back! As you may or may not remember, back in March I did a post all about the Fenwick Spring beauty bag and here I am back again with this PSA: The Autumn edition lands in stores tomorrow and is yours free when you spend £100 or more. It's as simple as that. As if you needed a reason to treat yourself...it's also worth £100 too! So, what exactly is in it this time round I hear you ask? Well et me tell you: Annick Goutal Tenue de Soirée Eau de Parfum (vial 0.8ml) Benefi

September's five beauty heroes are as follows: Mario Badescu Orange Protective Cream I've been really run down nursing a cold over the past few weeks and this moisuriser has been my little flaky-snotty-nose saviour to be honest. My skin has been sad and dull and so i've been whacking all sorts on it to keep it hydrated, especially my poor peeling nose from so much blowing. This little magic pot is super hydrating and also smells a delight, even when you're bunged up and can h

So I promised you some Summer sun beauty faves for this months round up and here they are - my key holiday must haves. Aesop Sage & Zinc Facial Hydrating Cream Aside from any other lovely things I have to say about this delightful face cream, it smells A-MAZING! As i'm sure you're all guessing by now, I love a good moisturiser, after all it's the base of your face and it's even more important on holiday with the harsh sunlight, pools and sea exposure to your skin. I am also a

It's that time again - albeit slightly later than anticipated - my five beauty faves from July are as follows! I've clearly ben all about scent and hydration throughout July which is definitely not a bad thing... Dior, Miss Dior First up is Miss Dior eau de parfum, the re-worked classic. Now I don't have a perfume wardrobe and I'm pretty selective with my scents but after giving this a try I'm willing to branch away from le Labo for five minutes. Basically I'm a rose gal and

Mario Badescu Facial Spray Before purchasing this I was all like 'a facial spray? Who needs a facial spray?...' but let me tell you since temperatures have been sky rocketing to a scorching 34 degrees in London of late, the question is who DOESN'T need a facial spray?! If I had a pound for every time I've uttered the phrase 'I'm so hot' in the last fortnight i'd be a millionaire. Not gonna lie there had been a strong consideration of hiring a personal fanner (must be a job ri

I have been really wanting to do more beauty posts on here so I thought I'd start writing a new monthly post around my five favourite beauty picks from the past month. So, here we go with May's edit ... 1. Davines Sea Salt Spray In at number one (however in no particular order ranking wise) is the Davines Sea Salt Spray. As Summer is fast approaching (yayyyy) I'll be firmly embracing the messy beach hair look (I mean messy, un-combed locks are a pretty year-round situ for me

This post has been a long time coming - both literally and metaphorically since I've been writing it for about nine years (welllll a few weeks but W/E) - let's talk about beauty. I thought I’d do a post on my current (some old faithful’s and some newbies) fave beauty products out there and what I use on the daily both on and around my bod. From foundation to fragrance and everything in between, I am a sucker for nice packaging and nice smells and whilst I do like a fair few p
