Life Update April 2019


Hi guys! Happy Monday and Happy middle of April!

So it's been almost forever since I did I post here on the blog - I did have some content scheduled but I deleted it as it was a "What's in my Make-Up" bag for travelling as we had a family holiday scheduled middle of March. 

Sadly ... the day before we were due to leave - my Mother sadly passed away from a heart attack. This was very sudden and has been such a devastation for me and my family. My mom has always been my rock in my life - so I really took it very hard. I would like to thank each and everyone who sent me messages of love and support on social media at this time too - I really appreciate each and every message I received.


To be honest, I didn't have any issues with turning 33 this year - but I just couldn't bring myself to celebrate this year as my birthday was so close to her passing away and her funeral. BUT - my brother and Alex did throw me a mini flamingo party with the cutest Flamingo Pink Cake. My bestie Siobhan also sent me an awesome Salt Lamp - I was so excited to receive that! I will be doing a post on the benefits of having one soon too.


I will be doing two worksheet related posts in the month of April for skipping on the March one - I have a fun Telling The Time worksheet planned with a detailed sheet and some to practise sheets to print out for the kids. I'm also working on some Maths worksheets for the second post this month.

There will be some fun Easter inspired nail art looks on my social media this week too - so if you aren't following me there - please check them out too and give them some love. Easter is one of my favourite times and I will be sharing some fun decor items as well as cute nail ideas over there. 

So I will be back to blogging from this week - keep an eye on the blog for some more posts later this week.

Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer Review and Wear Test

Hi guys. Happy Monday. How was your weekend ?? Today I will be sharing my review on the Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer . I have worn this quite a few times since buying the product - so I have a pretty good idea how it preforms. The colour I got was a typical Lynette colour - The Catrice ICONails Gel Lacquer in Donut Worry be Happy. This is such a gorgeous fun pink colour. The range does have quite a few colour options - and what I do like about the range is that no top coat is needed. So while I always top coat polish or gel polishes - I didn't when I tested this out. Since I did mention I have worn it quite a few times - I always wore it without top coat. The polish dries amazingly fast - and is dry enough to not make dent marks on it within 20 minutes. Which I think is pretty impressive for a polish without top coat. The brush is on the thicker side - making the polish super easy to apply. I prefer nailpolish brushes like this since it's mostly just one swipe on each

CATRICE TREATMENTS SERUM REVIEW

Hi guys! Happy Wednesday. How was your week? I totally lost a day with the public holidays and Easter Weekend threw into the mix ... I was pretty convinced today was actually Tuesday. As I mentioned in my New on my Beauty Desk post in February - I got a few Catrice serums from their new range to try out. In total I picked up the Hydro serum as well - so today I will give you a rundown on the three serums I chose from the range to my routine.  Overall - I have a pretty good idea of which ones I love - which ones are good and which ones I'm not 100% sold on.  CATRICE HYDRO PLUMPING SERUM  This serum contains 1.5 %  hyaluronic acid and panthenol to plumps up the skin as well as have a soothing effect on the skin. Hyaluronic acid is well known to hydrate the skin and absorbs easily into the skin super quickly. I love using Hyaluronic Acid in the morning before applying make-up as it gives me a hydrated base to work with. Honestly, while I did enjoy using this serum - I do prefer the Sw
