Spring Fashion Inspiration


The time has come again to change a few items in my wardrobe ready for the sunnier months to come (hopefully). England's Spring is always so unpredictable so your wardrobe is full of a bit of everything to cater for the warm and not so sunny days. Below are some items that I think will be perfect to add to my Spring wardrobe.

CREME EGG BROWNINES RECIPE



Easter is the perfect time to bake so delicious treats. For many years, I've been seeing this recipe pop up on social media but I've never got round to actually making them and I always remember about it after Easter when all the creme eggs are also sold out. After making them I was like 'why haven't I made these before?' because they are delicious. Also, if you gave up chocolate for lent this could be the perfect treat to celebrate your achievement - congrats if you have, I could never.

Ingredients:
185g Dark Chocolate
185g Unsalted Butter
85g Plain Flour
40g Cocoa Powder
3 Eggs
275 Caster Sugar
6 Creme Eggs

Method:
1. Preheat the oven to 180ºc or Gas mark 4
2. Melt the butter and chocolate, works best if you do it over a pan of hot water then set aside
3. Crack the eggs into a bowl then add the sugar and mix together (until moose like)
4. Pour the chocolate into the mixed eggs and butter and gently fold it together until it's combined
5. Gently fold in the flour and cocoa powder into the mixture
6. Pour it into the tin and cook for 15 minutes
7. Take the brownies out of the oven then add the halved creme eggs and put back in the oven for another 5 to 10 minutes
8. Let the brownie cool then cut and enjoy

Have a wonderful Easter!

LoveLula Beauty Box March 2016 & Review



This is the last of my subscription box from LoveLula, as part of my Christmas present. I thought I would you, my thoughts on the LoveLula subscription boxes now I've received them for 3 months. 

Again I was extremely happy when I opened this box. The fist product I noticed and was desperate to open and try was the Hurraw lip balm. I always heard such good reviews about them, I opened it straight away and applied it to my lips - even though this is best at night. I found it helped some of the dryness with just one application. I will defiantly be building my collection with the 20% discount with the box. I received 3 items from Urban Veda: Radiance Day Cream, Radiance Exfoliating Facial Polish, and Daily Radiance Facial Wash - I hadn't heard of this brand before but I'm looking forward to trying them. Another product which I'm excited to try is TurBliss Peat Masks. Another full sized product was Skin Blossom's Cleansing Milk, it's vegan and 91% organic. This was very useful as I was on the look out for a gentle wash cleanser. As usual, I received 2 packet samples - they were both moisturizers. 

I now thought I'd share my view on subscription boxes. I haven't been disappointed that's for sure, every box that has been delivered to my door has featured some pretty amazing brands and is defiantly worth the money. I loved waiting every month for the next one then opening it and seeing what's been included that month. I had my subscription as a Christmas present - for me, this has been perfect. I'm not too sure if I'm going to continue to pay for the subscription myself but I strongly believe that for following birthdays and Christmases I will be asking for it again. I have loved discovering new brands every month - this was one of the main reasons I asked for it as after switching to cruelty-free it's something I found hard, so it's defiantly helped me with that problem. However, with that comes with one problem I find with subscription boxes it that I now have a large box of unused/unopened products I'm yet to test. I feel like if I continued with the subscription my box would only get larger and then I would be a little bit pointless because I don't even get to trial the products I'm sent.
