The Pumpkin LifeI’m quite late writing this post but March started off with a trip to the Body Shop on Grafton Street for the launch of their Fuji Green Tea range. As a fan of drinking green tea all day I was delighted to sample their new products. Their space upstairs in the shop looked amazing. It […]
I drink green tea all day and as I don’t drink coffee or regular tea, green tea is my hot drink of choice. In the last few months, however, I have decided to try some detox / weight loss teas. Years ago I got caught up in the hype of pu-erh tea when it wasn’t […]
I have recently developed a grá for Green Angel. I have been trying their products for a few weeks now and I have become a little bit obsessed. I am telling everyone to try them. Green Angel is an Irish company specialising in natural skin, hair and bath care. The products are created with seaweed […]
Over the last few months I have started to fall in love with Ren. Ren is a Swedish company that produces clean skincare free of nasty chemicals and animal testing. The first product that I used was their Optimum Skin Oil and I have been working my way through cleansers, moisturisers, serums, shower gels and […]

Last Thursday I attended a masterclass in Urban Decay Blackrock (read about it here) and was introduced to Perversion Mascara and its primer Subversion. Perversion promises bigger, blacker, badder lashes and I was intrigued to see if this was the case. I find that mascara often leaves my lashes dry and brittle. I want lots […]
Almost two weeks ago I was sent the Mio Workout Wonder gel. This is an invigorating muscle motivation gel. In simple terms this is a booster shot for your muscles. The idea is that the gel helps one recover faster after a gym or workout session. The gel can also be used before a workout […]
There are a few things that can be relied on with absolute certainty in life, one of those being that when No7 vouchers become available I will make a trip to Boots. Who doesn’t love getting to try new products without having to pay full price? On a recent search for new and perfected skin […]
I haven’t been very well recently and I’ve also had to move house so things have been pretty stressful. Whilst trying to keep calm on the surface, my skin was showing signs of stress and fatigue.
