Hello lovelies! Although it's still pretty warm outside which I'm not happy about, it is September which means...Autumn clothing eek! I have put together my own little wish list of things that I have got my eye on this season! This post is so delayed that I have actually bought some of these things already.. maybe.
Item one is a beautiful sunflower playlist that I saw on ebay for £15, I don't usually like playsuits however this one really stood out to me and in my opinion would look cute with boots and thick tights. Yes or no?
Item two is something I already but own but in grey. Burgundy is such a staple autumn colour and it goes with so much! However I opted for grey because grey, black or white is my thing! This is from h&m £24.99.
Item three is black joni jeans from Top-shop. Which I am sure most of you already own! However I didn't up until now! I had a blue pair but I always look in my wardrobe and think 'this would look great with black jeans!'
Item four I'm not too keen on anymore however I didn't want to have to re-do the whole collage again*lazy blogger*. I don't know where this coat is from I just found it on Instagram and at the time fell in love however now looking at it I don't if I like it.
Item five is a plain v neck dress, I don't own any plain dresses. I really need to invest in some more because they look really cute in winter with a chunky cardigan and tights. This one is from new look, I think. I actually didn't make note of where these things were from and I should of, sorry!
Item six the final item is a kaki green scallop top from top-shop for £22, I really like the top versions of these for winter because they're not as revealing as the cropped version!
Please excuse the random little picture in the bottom left, I couldn't get rid of it. I don't know why it's there either!
That's a few things on my autumn wish list, would you like to see more?

Hey beauts! As most of you are aware I do occasionally like to tan up when I don't feel like looking like a ghost. Sometimes if I'm looking for something more subtle I will use a tinted moisturiser however today I'm just going to be showing you my routine for when I use actual fake tan!
First up I exfoliate - exfoliating is so important before tanning as it gets rid of dead skin cells. Nobody wants their fake tan to stick to certain parts of your skin where the dead skin is clinging on and not allowing your tan to rub in. I highly recommend the S&G Scrub of your life exfoliator. I love the way this foams up and isn't too harsh on the skin!
After my bath and exfoliating I like to use a moisturiser which ever one really takes me fancy - I usually opt for one again from S&G. I like to moisturise again just to smooth out my skin and make it a lot easier for my tan to go on and blend in!
WEAR GLOVES - Seriously, wear gloves when using a fake tan, it doesn't matter so much if your only using a tinted moisturiser! I have faked tan so many times without using gloves and its a bad idea, trust me! I really recommend the 'Make Believe instant tan' especially if you have paler skin and want a subtle tan. The only downfall is that this does have a matte finish and when I tan I like my skin to have more of a glow.
To finish off and give my skin a glow I use the S&G Glow Lotion, this is such a lovely body highlighter! This was a gift from a friend for my birthday and literally ever since it has been my holy grale product for when I'm tanning!
That's my tanning routine, what's yours? Do you recommend any new products I could try out?

Hey lovelies! Recently I've finally got myself a skincare routine that I am happy with and actually been able to stick to. I'll be doing a morning skincare routine very soon! Also very quickly this is my 100th post on here, that's mad!
To remove my makeup on a night I differ between my 'Nivea Sensitive Cleansing Milk' or my 'Garnier Micellar Water'. Depending on how much makeup I have on - if I have a lot on and want a quicker option for removing my makeup then I go for my Garnier however if I'm not wearing a lot and my skins not too great I'll use my cleansing milk as it's a lot more soothing on my skin!
Next up I go in with my favourite product of all times my 'Neutrogena Daily Scrub' this has helped clear up my skin so much its unreal! This smells gorgeous which is a huge plus! This is great for all skin types.
Up until about a month I wasn't cleansing or toning at all, why? I didn't see the point. I recently started using the Nivea 2in1 Cleanser&Toner this gives my skin a glow and really helps calm it down after using a scrub.
Depending on the day and how I'm feeling sometimes I will use my latest edition to my facemask collection the Dirty Works berry berry detox mask. This is a clay mask and I specially love this because you can see your pores and the areas where its working! You leave this on for around ten minutes.
Lastly moisturising! Moisturising is so important. Regardless of how lazy I'm feeling I will never forget to moisturise! A lot of people who have oily skin think that they can't moisturise - well you can! I love the Simple oil balancing moisturiser! I've been using this for a while now and it does a great job!

Hey beauts! Recently I have been one of lush's cleanser called 'Let the good times roll'. This has little bits of popcorn inside it and it smells so yummy!!
This might look super weird but I promise it does the job! You only need the tiniest bit so it will last a while! You take a tiny chunk into the palm of your hand, add some water and form a paste. Massage this into your skin then wash it off with water.
This is £6.40 for 100g, which for Lush skincare is a really good price! I'm sure your local lush staff will let you have a quick try before you buy it as I know a lot of lush staff do where I live!
This leaves your skin feeling so soft and clean! Imagine this rubbing popcorn onto your face and it being good for your skin?! Who would off thought! I was a bit wary about rubbing this onto my face at first but it's done such a good job I don't mind as much!
I wouldn't recommend grabbing some popcorn out the cupboard and rubbing that on your face though! If you do try that then let me know how that goes for you haha!
I've finally put together a skin care routine I am happy with, would you like to see it?
Have you tried any products from lush lately that your loving?
