Firstly, sorry for my huge blogging hiatus. I had some problems at work which made me miserable for a few weeks, but I am better now.
Secondly, I've was introduced to this challenge by Sophie from Flirty Dresses and I thought it would be fun to do! I am so bad with buying products and not using them for a while, and so I thought I would challenge myself each month to use the products which have been neglected for one reason or another. I seem to have bought loads of blushers recently and I have only been using a select few. NARS Mata Hari and Topshop Head Over Heels have been neglected the most, in fact I don't think I've ever used them and that's not really excusable for a blush that cost me £21. I've not even opened the Topshop lipstick! So this month I will try to get some use out of these products, and update you on the results!
Lastly, you may have noticed I updated the design a little. I loved my previous design but I wanted to add a few new pages which didn't work with the old one so I had to change it up a bit. I also designed Rachel's blog Cold Knees too, so I've been a busy bee these past few weeks.
How have you all been?
I know what you mean with buying products and not using them. It's horrible. I'm happy that you are back and are able to post more ofthen again. I'm looking forward to your next post (:

ahh i'll be awaiting the review on these products :) i love burt bees products. their hand creams are truly so moisturizing for me (considering my hands get dry in the winter). i'm only using their facial lotion(?) or cream? right now, it's not so bad either. i've never tried their cleanser though. can't wait to hear about the nars blush either. i've always wanted to try out their products but they were so expensive >< maybe when i save up a bit more. sorry to hear about your work situation but i'm glad to hear you're feeling better now.

ReplyDeleteWelcome back sweetheart! :) I'm glad everything is ok for you now ♥ Life comes first, blog then. Even though we've missed you! This was a nice post, I should really pay attention to my own "neglected" products. There must be plenty since I've gotten many lipsticks from my mum etc. and almost never use them.

Thats a good idea! As soon as a buy anything new I forget about my old stuff.
ReplyDeleteI love this monthly challenge! Such a great idea to dig out old stuffs which we forgot about. Maybe I'll start with my clothes!
