British Beauty Blogger & Clinique

In April the British Beauty Blogger teamed up with Latest In Beauty again for another amazing box.

Apart from the fact LIB pull off some amazing boxes, I love how we can try some favourite products of the bloggers we all sit and read.


My favourite items so far are the Sweet Pots Sugar Scrub & Lip Balm and the Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion +.

The lotion doesn't leave a residue behind and is quickly absorbed. The sugar scrub is handy to keep on my dresser and use every other morning or longer. During my pregnancy I've experienced having dry, cracked lips more often than usual.

The box gives me a chance to try out new products with out the expense of buying full size products.

My 1st Trimester

Since finding out that we were pregnant, we decided to wait until our 12 week scan before telling anyone. I guess I wasn't totally expecting what was too come in my first 3 months, but I got there. My appetite totally changed, I went from been able to eat anything in site pretty much to being very picky. I don't think I've ever been that picky about food in my adult life, but it was an experience. I had nausea, but there was only 2 or 3 days where sickness really bothered me. I think I found myself telling my OH that I don't think I've felt that ill in those 3 months than I ever have in my life. But it's all part of the process. As your body adapts, many things change including hormones, skin and urinary system. Tiredness also effected me. I found that I could easily go for a nap every day for about a hour or so, and I loved it! As I'm coming to the end of my 2nd trimester, I will do another post in a couple of days on this. :)

It's been a while....

It's been nearly a year since I last blogged and I don't think I've missed it. I don't think I was in a place to write also and I've had a lot to keep me busy. I've been out of work for over a year. Since being made redundant and being pregnant, it wasn't easy to get work before having F. In one hand I was lucky to have the time to have a relaxed pregnancy. However, in the other hand I was living off of Job Seekers Allowance, redundancy pay and some savings. Not the best situation to be in when you are pregnant, especially with some big purchases to make. If I was lucky enough to have worked up until I needed to go on maternity leave, then I've had about the same amount of time off before going back to work, if I still had a job. And now I need to get back into work to help support my family. Where I live, it was kind of becoming the new "norm" of being made redundant. It was in the local news everyday. Not a trend I want to be apart of

Hi & Welcome

Hi, my name is Laura and I'm 30 years old. I am expecting my first baby with my OH and we're so looking forward to his arrival. Unfortunately, I was made redundant in February from my job due to the current situation in Oil & Gas. But, this has gave me a chance to do some decorating for out baby and catch up with other jobs around the house. I used to write a blog a couple of years ago about beauty and skincare but stopped because I didn't want to force my writing and not enjoy it. Given I have more time to focus on my post's, I wanted to start again and see how it goes. So here's to many more posts, hopefully! :)
