Esqido Lashes


I was lucky enough to receive these gorgeous lashes from Esquido. First off i need to talk about the packaging is absolutely beautiful the box really has such a lovely high end feel to it there is a card sleeve then the box has a magnetic flap to reveal the gold inside the box. This box is great for re-using the lashes they easily go back into the box, I have had a few wears out of these lashes so far and they are still going strong! It claims that they can be used up to 25 times which is way more than other lashes I have tried. The glue comes in its own seperate box. It is a large tube that holds a considerable amount of product.

The lashes are made from Mink I have found these to be the softest type of lashes that I have tried, and I have tried a few! They are much more comfortable to wear, and they bend to the curve of you eye better meaning that you do not get that annoying end of the lash sticking up!

The Mink is ethically sourced which means that though they are made from real mink fur it is collected from natural shredding of the animal, meaning that no animals are harmed in the making of these lashes.

They retail at between $34 and $42 which does sound pricey for a pair of lashes but when you consider that you can get 25 uses out of these it isn't bad at all.

Eden's Semilla

I was asked to try and review these new essential oils from Eden Semila. I received 12 oils in total

You can purchase these sets via their Amazon Store.

  • Set 1  – £7.50 + £2.85 p&p
  • Set 2 – £7.50 + £2.85 p&p





The twelve essential oils that are in the collection contain 12 of the most popular plant extracts.
➭ Lavender (Diffused / Drops) – Helps to reduce stress and tension
➭ Cinnamon (Diffused) – An antibacterial air cleaning 
➭ Bergamot (Diffusion) – As an insect repellent
➭ Pine – (Diffusion / Drop) Natural deodoriser for air and textiles
➭ Sandalwood (Drops) – For festive ceremonial occasions
➭ Sweet Orange (Diffused) – A natural sweet air freshener for the home
➭ Peppermint (Topical) – For soothing aches and pains
➭ Eucalyptus (Diffusion) – To aid respiration and calm coughs and colds
➭ Tea Tree (Diffused) – Helps cleanse air from mold and pathogens
➭ Frankincense (Topical) – General skin care and premature ageing
➭ Rosemary (Mixed) – All round use commonly mixed with other oils
➭ Lemon Grass (Topical) – Antibacterial and skin healing properties


These are all high quality therapeutic oils they are amazing quality you can tell this from the consistency of they oils they are quick thick. They smell very strong and natural there is nothing artificial about them!

There are so many ways you can use these essential oils. Pinterest have a lot of great ideas for using essential oils. I have tried some in a diffuser or even in the bath. They can easily be added with water in a spray bottle and you have an instant room fragrance
The eucalyptus one has been great at helping with a stuffy nose!

If you purchase these as a set they come in a lovely sleek matt black box each contating 4 essential oils. Each oil is in a glass bottle with a sturdy lid. They pour really well to dispensing drops at a time so there is not mess or wasted product 

Overall I really love these oils and looking forward to finding even more uses for them.

Jurlique Skincare


I received this beautiful package from Jurlique skincare. First off how cute is this packaging!

The first item is this rosewater balancing mist. Again the packaging is so lovely. It's so girly me all over. 

The bottle itself is made of glass and this is the perfect travel size. It smells amazing. I generally love the smell of roses anyway but this is such a refreshing scent. I used it as a toner after I had washed and cleansed my face and if left my skin feeling so hydrated and soft and of course smelling amazing. 

Next up is his travel size hand cream. Perfect for handbags or on my case I keep it on my desk at work. 

 Again the scent of this is amazing it's the same rose scent and it lasts ages. It's also a really nice consistency it leaves my hands feeling moisturised but no too greasy

I will defiantly be having a look into the rest of their range as I have been impressed so far by these

FFS Friction Free Shaving


I have seen a lot of different makeup and beauty subscription boxes but I have never seen a subscription service for shavers!


Friction Free Shaving or FFS deliver razors to your door from £3 per month. They come in the packaging below. The first one comes with the handle and 4 blades one per week so it is a monthly box.
Once you have received your first months box you can have the refils sent to your door each month. This is great if like me you forget to buy your refils and end up tying to shave with a blunt blade!! No one wants a shaving rash!! 


The handle itself was beautiful. I had the gold one it feels so sturdy like men's shavers not like the flimsy plastic women's ones. It also does have the added advantage of looking good in your bathroom!


The blades themselves glide brilliantly. The one I chose had 5 blades and left my skin feeling silky smooth and no shaving rash!
