L'occitane & My Little Box

L'occitane is a brand I have been a fan of for a while now, especially their Bonne Mere range which I believe is highly under rated, My Grandma actually introduced it to me last christmas with a selection of the range.
I attended the event in which they had collaborated with the french company 'My Little Box', based in Paris it's a monthly lifestyle box subscription service which is a favourite amongst bloggers for its selection of items it sends each month. I personally like that they do something different not just the standard 5 or so beauty products.
I have to say I had kind of forgotten about L'occitane until this event, but I am very glad I was reminded of its presence! It has some absolute corker's in the range, there are obviously the cult classics such as the almond shower oil but the fragrance range has some hidden gems, my friend obsesses over the fig fragrance she blogged about it here.
The event was based in the beautiful little Covent garden store, which is well worth a visit if your around that area.

Paris: Day 4

The last day was the most exciting. Disney Land. The place where dreams come true. The last time I visited I was 2 so I was extremely excited to return.
We bought 2 park tickets, one for the Studios and the other for Disney Land itself.  Both where amazing and the studios are a great addition to the park and have the better rides in my opinion.  What ever the age, if your in Paris a trip is essential.

Autumn Base...

So as the weather changes so does our skin, and generally we start to reach toward a heavier creamier base for the winter months.

I however have stuck with the cream but strayed from the heavier coverage in my desperate bid to let my skin breathe, and granted this is tricky when the air its breathing is heavily polluted.

After scouring the internet I decided on the hugely hyped Nars tinted moisturizer and creamy concealer, the tinted moisturizer is in my book the best of both worlds, a lovely glow-y base with decent coverage whilst maintaining a weightless feel. Only downside is that I do find primer essential with this products otherwise it did slip throughout the day.

The concealer is also a cracker, it covers but without looking matte and cakey. You can also use it as a slight highlight on the tops of the cheekbones for a 'I woke up like this' glow.

Ahhh Nars, you've done it again.

Shake Shack

Originating from NYC shake shack took London by storm with its signature burgers and milkshakes and naturally I needed to see what the hype was about.

Me and R went along to the Covent garden store for some meaty goodness.

I went for the original burger, fries and lemonade.

R went for Fries and a peanut butter shake ( word of warning, do not drink this unless you want to incur severe sugar highs. And then crash an hour later.) 

The burger was tasty for sure, but there wasn't much of it...  I ate it in almost one mouthful. 

The chips made up for that though, they are incredible. 

We then walked off (some) carbs by strolling around the market before retiring home.
