Ring Shopping

Hey ladies

Hope ye are all well. As most of ye know by now myself and my fiance are getting married next year. We went ring shopping the last day in Matthew Stephens Jewellers in Limerick. I know we are going about it all a bit early but we want to have most of it done and enjoy the run up to the wedding as much as we can. The jewellers itself is AMAZING i wanted everything in there. The staff are lovely and it was a fab experience. My brothers girlfriend sarah works there so we were dealing with her. She showed us some amazing rings i had a fair idea of what i wanted so she showed me what would work with my engagement ring and i had 1 picked fairly quickly the 1 i got just felt right and looked unreal with my ring. The display of rings can be daunting but sarah and all the staff in there know what they are at and know what to look for once they see your engagement ring. My fiance picked a fab ring too both my rings are platinum so he got platinum too. There was a big selection to choose from for him too but 1 caught our eye straight away and he went with that. Thats another thing off the list now its getting exciting. I wish it was this December now lol..

                                                   
                                                   This was 1 of the trays of rings for men.

This was the display beside our table near the window i love it it felt so luxurious.

The bags and boxes are the cutest

Champagne anyone?? lol

Sarah and myself after selecting the perfect rings i would highly recommend them xx

This is their website

Thats all for now

Cocoa Brown Review

Hey everyone. Hope ye are all well. Just posting a quick review of the new cocoa brown shampoo, conditioner and shower gel range. I bought the travel size that includes the new tanning wipes. I didn't use them yet but i did use the shampoo conditioner and shower gel. One word AMAZING!!!!!!!! My hair is very dry from all the bleach and hair dye i use to achieve my blonde/silver toned hair and whenever i wash it i find it very hard to brush it afterwards its always tangled and knotted but the brush just glided through my hair after using these today. They smell divine also. I will 100% be purchasing the full size bottles when they are in shops. The shower gel smells fab too and is really foamy which i love in a shower gel/bubble bath. My skin feels so soft after it too so i will be picking that up again too. Is there anything that woman (Marissa Carter) cant do like?? I adore her and her work ethic she has an amazing ambition and drive. I met her and her  masterclass in the brehon killarney and she was fab. I cant wait to see what other products she brings out i have a feeling this is only the tip of the iceberg for her. Thanks for taking the time to read my blog i appreciate it all so much.

I bought mine in a local chemist but i will leave a link for ye to buy it if ye like.

GLAM GLOW

Hey ladies Hope ye are having a good week. Wednesday is nearly over so the weekend is getting closer thank god! My new post is about the amazing glam glow super mud clearing treatment( The white one) I got a cousin of mine to pick it up in duty free for €37.50 normally between €50-€56. I have only used it 3 times and I LOVE IT. It's amazing and worth the money for sure. You apply it on clean skin with a make up brush I use a concealer brush. It goes on black and wet and drys grey. You can literally see it clean out your pores. You leave it on for 20 minutes and wash off then. My skin feels amazing when I use it and I have seen instant results from it. I will definitely be re purchasing this over and over again.

Disgusting but had to show ye it in action.. those are my pores being cleaned right before my eyes.. its unreal seriously.

That's all for now

Teeth whitening

Hey ladies

This post is about the iwhite teeth whitening pack. I got mine in the swag bag from marissa carter's masterclass in killarney. In the box you get ten pre filled gum trays 5 for the top teeth and 5 for the bottom teeth. It says to use for 5 consecutive days for the best results or every now and again to give your teeth a whitening if you are going out or going somewhere special. I was going to do it for 5 consecutive days but my daughter charley got sick on day 3 so I skipped a few days. I still seen instant results but I will definitely buy it again to do it for the 5 days in a row. What I liked about it was the trays were pre filled so there is no messing around with syringes and having to heat the trays to mould the shape of your teeth ect... I found my teeth to be a tiny bit sensitive after the first use but it didn't bother me and it went away quickly. I have very sensitive teeth so i was suprised they weren't more sensitive to be honest. Now as I said i didn't buy it but as far as I know it's about €30 and I feel it is well worth that price. I'll pop before and after pics below and ye can see the difference and when I get them again i will do it for the 5 consecutive days and show ye again. Keep in mind my teeth need a bit of work done to them but with my upcoming wedding next year i will be getting them done and I will definitely be using these in the run up to our big day..

These are the before and after pictures. I also want to try the toothpaste the next time.

This is what the box looks like marissa carter swears by them so if they are good enough for her they are good enough for me haha.

That's all for now
