Blogs Of A Shopaholic

I've been meaning to do a skincare related blog post for a while now but time has just slipped by (as always!).  Now that we've hit March though I thought it would be the perfect time to share my current skincare routine with you as I change my routine to fit in with the season ahead and Spring feels like it's most definitely on it's way.  I have decided to make March my "Skincare" month on the blog and will be posting regular weekly posts about my routines and the products I use so keep checking back as I will be uploading more regularly (or at least trying to) this month.

There are a few new products though and they are all skincare related.  The first being the Alpha-H Liquid Gold Rose Limited Edition.  This came in my Marks & Spencer Advent Calendar (...

Hey everyone, I hope everyone has been enjoying this gorgeous weather we've been having here in the UK.  A little bit of warmth and sunshine really does make me feel happier and healthier.

My Little Beauty Vitamin Shot Facial Scrub I'll start with skincare and the first thing I've been using over and over is the My Little Beauty Vitamin Shot facial scrub that I received in my April box (click here to read my full review).  It's permanently ...
