Pink & Purple Dots

Hi guys! Happy Friday! Somehow my post last week never went live ( which was totally my fault - I put in the incorrect day - so my Friday Freebie post will move to next Friday instead.  As I mentioned in my Advent Calendar post here I always get the Essence Advent Calendar to open up every morning. In our house this is such a fun ritual in December - Alex opens up his Lego City Advent and I have my Essence one. Today I will share with you guys the first 6 products of the calendar - (I see they are still on sale on Takealot - so perhaps if you are thinking about it this will give you an idea what you get ).  Day 1 - Essence I Love Extreme Mascara  Honestly - Essence Mascara is a firm favourite in my books - I love mostly all the mascaras by the brand and this one is no exception. Essence mascaras last a pretty decent time on me too. I have too many mascaras open at this stage - but I'm super excited to use this beauty soon.  Essence Glitter mini nail polish...

Hi guys ! Happy Friday ! Hope you had a great week so far. Mine has been crazy busy and year end madness is a real thing I tell you. I decided to start a mini series on the blog called SEASONAL THINGS - where I will share some fun gift ideas as I find them - cute decorations as well as anything seasonal.  One of my personal favourites during the Festive Season is the trusty Advent Calendar. If you follow me on Social Media the last few year you will know every year I get a beauty Advent Calendar and unbox it daily on Instagram / Twitter and Facebook . This year will be no different - but I will show you some other good ones I found in the process . I got my dad and brother and Alex one (I'll share which ones ) and some other good ones that I think is worth looking into. And see it as a way of rewarding yourself for a hard working year - and having to get up and go to work before Christmas leave. I can tell you - an Advent Calendar alone can make your mood 100% better ....
