I must say a final word about these new Maybelline Colour Show Polka Dots polishes. The speckled effect is very cool, but a little more work safe than a really wacky holographic glitter. Pretty with a punch. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
They will be available from June for an unbelievably affordable £2.99 a pop. There will be four colours in total to choose from - the blue and pink you see below, plus a black/white and teal/emerald.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are a few gems in this month's round-up so it's looking like I will have to bend the rules somehow of my spending ban as I really don't want to be without some of these!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Bioderma Crealine H2O - definitely repurchase </h3>
This watery make up cleanser lives up to the hype. Unfortunately you can't pick it up on the high street, but I believe it's stocked in Harvey Nicks, or you can get some good deals online especially if you buy in bulk. This make up artist favourite is an all rounder that even removes stubborn eye make up. The best thing is it leaves skin feeling clean, without the icky residue some heavier cleansers leave behind. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Batiste Dry Shampoo (Cherry)* - no repurchase </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is what it is, and I know loads of people loath Batiste for its residue. I can't stand the Blush scent, but Cherry is pretty nice. However I'd recommend the 'Fresh' one in the blue bottle instead. Batiste works best if you spray it on before going to bed as this allows it to work its magic overnight and with a quick brush through in the morning you have clean(ish), voluminous hair.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Clean & Clear Exfoliating Daily Wash - definitely repurchase </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is easily my tenth go-around with this face wash. No matter what else I try, I always come back to it. It's pretty harsh so I wouldn't recommend using it more than once a day, but it's got the finest grain to it which really exfoliates, it's great first thing in the shower. Inexpensive and miles better than more expensive cleansers. Recently other brands have released similar exfoliating cleansers with gorgeous fruity scents which I'm trying and will let you know if they knock this one off top spot.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
i.d. bare Minerals in Fairly Light - maybe repurchase </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was my first mineral foundation and it lasted for an age. While it's still a favourite, I find this type of foundation emphasises the appearance of pores. You definitely need a 'Poly-fila' type primer like Benefit Porefessional or Garnier Perfect Blur underneath for a truly flawless look. Recently I've discovered Laura Mercier's Mineral Powder (I use Tender Rose) which is just phenomenal. Flawless skin with the swirl of a brush. <br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Maybelline ColorSensational in 112 Ambre Rose - couldn't repurchase even if I wanted to!</h3>
Of course the minute I fall in love with a cosmetic, it gets discontinued! However, looking on the US website, it looks very similar to 120 Pink Satin. Alas, I shall miss this gorgeous bright pink with gold flecks.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Aromatherapy Associates Renew Rose Hydrating Body Gel* - no repurchase </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I reviewed this gel <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2011/07/some-rnr-with-aromatherapy-associates.html" target="_blank">here</a> so won't go into too much detail now. While it's a nice product to keep in the fridge to use on very hot days, I can live without it.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
L'Oreal Elvive Renutrition Nourishing Milk - definitely repurchase </h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I can't say enough about this Nourishing Milk which is really more of a creamy serum. It's the perfect consistency for my hair, adding just enough moisture to wet hair to help the drying process. If yours is too fine for hair oils I urge to to try this, even for the scent alone.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Kiehl's Creme de Corps - no repurchase </h3>
This product is so hyped and I'm not sure why really. I find it very greasy and the scent is nothing to write home about. If you have dry, problem skin you're better off with a body oil like <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2012/11/my-best-body-skincare-find-of-2012.html" target="_blank">Garnier Body Ultimate Beauty Oil</a> or if you prefer a cream the Garner 7 Day Moisture range is gorgeous. This isn't an advert for Garnier, they just have some seriously good body products!<br />
<br />
<h3>
Have you tried any of these products? Do you agree with my takes on them? </h3>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
L'Oreal Nude Magique BB Blush Universal Rosy Blush*</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
£7.99</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This works in the same way as Smashbox's O Glow Intuitive Cheek Colour but is nearly a third of the price. It's a clear blush which turns pink on contact with skin to give a natural glow. While it's totally faddy, I love it. It wouldn't matter to me if it came out of the tube already pink, in fact it would help me avoid applying too much!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This works best on pale to light medium skintones as it is very Barbie bubblegum pink. The gel texture is even easier to blend than a cream formulation. I keep it in my make up handbag kit and it doubles up as a lip tint if I need a bit of perking up. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The only issue I have with this blush is why they've called it a 'BB' blush. What on earth?! 'BB' stands for Blemish Balm and there's nothing about it which suggests it contains any ingredients which could perform a skincare role. It's just a good example of marketing gone wrong. How they got this past the advertising watchdogs beats me.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been using this daily for almost two months and it's still going strong, so it's a definite future repurchase. </div>

<b>L'Oreal Glam Shine Stain Splash in Milady*</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<b>£7.99, available in 8 shades</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
One of the most exiting new products launched at the <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2013/02/event-loreal-paris-springsummer-2013.html" target="_blank">L'Oreal Spring/Summer 2013 Product Showcase</a> I attended in February were these Glam Shine Stain Splashes. They've been compared to YSL Glossy Stains in that they are the perfect mix of colourful pigment, glossiness and stain-like durability.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I've worn Lolita almost everyday, it's one of those pinky nudes which looks different on everyone depending on your underlying skintone. One coat gives me a hint of glossy blush, but it can be layered into a 'my lips but better' stain with two or three.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
If you're not sure about splashing out on YSL's offering give these L'Oreal dupes a go first because the texture might not be for everyone. They start off feeling very wet, then go sticky as they dry, afterwhich they won't budge for at least 4 hours. They do however struggle with food and drink.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'll definitely be picking up a few more shades as these have become my Spring lip staples. </div>

It seems like a lifetime since I've had a Sleek MakeUP post for you, but this one was worth the wait. I was sent this collection in February and at the time the weather was so horrendous all the bright colours were a bit much to take. In the past week the warmer weather has made the possibility of bright Spring make up more tangible.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The collection is limited edition and has been available since mid March, so move quick if you want to get your hands on it. Purchase the Lagoon Eyeshadow online from <a href="http://www.sleekmakeup.com/">www.sleekmakeup.com</a> or at Superdrug for £7.99 and the Mirrored Pink Blush for £4.49.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The top shade from the Lagoon palette is definitely the pale bronze. I'm a Sleek eyeshadow evangelist because for the budget price the quality is great, more so with the metallic shades. This is a fun palette and if you're into bright eyes this will see you right through to the end of summer. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Mirrored Pink blush is a masterpiece. It's their cooler toned answer to their infamous <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2010/10/sleek-make-up-rose-gold-shimmer-blush.html" target="_blank">Rose Gold</a> which caused such a stir a couple of years ago for being a straight up NARS Orgasm clone. After my initial fling with Rose Gold I had to face the sad truth that it just isn't that flattering on my pale skin. It turns up too orange and warmed toned, making me look ruddy rather than flirtily flushed. For anyone a MAC NC20 or under, Mirrored Pink is your answer. I've used it solidly every day for two months which says a lot considering I have literally a drawer of blushes to choose from. It's even dragged me away from my cream blush obsession. Aside from the beautiful colour, it's amazingly pigmented, so it will last you forever as you only need the tiniest bit. It's also very long wearing, with no need to touch up during a normal 9-5 day. The only drawback is it IS very shimmery which could rule it out for anyone with a sober job! I don't mind the shimmer as it helps me skip the step of going crazy on my cheekbones with a Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've got a few other new Sleek products up my sleeve and will be revealing all very soon! </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
March was a bit of a dud month in terms of the products I finished for review. I don't particularly like writing negative reviews, but I do like reading them as they've saved me from wasting a lot of money over the years. Of course everyone's skin chemistry is different, but I'll just go through my honest opinion of each for you.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<h3>
Joico K-Pak Moisture Intense Hydrator Treatment* - no repurchase</h3>
Let's get the good news out of the way first. It smells nice. Not fabulous, but very sweet and tropical. I've seen this hair treatment raved about all over the interwebs and the mind boggles as to why. I've seen people with much drier hair than mine hail it as a saviour for their locks but if anything, it worsened the condition of my hair. It performed no better than your standard couple of quid conditioner, definitely not worth the approx. £16 price tag. My blogger friend <a href="http://www.angelarmogida.com/" target="_blank">Angel</a> also detested it, so I got back up on this! My advice is save your money for Kerastase.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Garnier Pure Active Blackhead Clearing Scrub - no repurchase </h3>
This face scrub bored me to tears. It was such a slog to get through. I've got my fair share of blackheads and it did nothing to sort them out. The blue 'scrubby' particles are just too large to be of any consequence. Other than that it was very creamy and not foamy enough to even perform as a decent cleanser. Pass.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Natura Bisse The Cure Pure Serum* - maybe repurchase </h3>
Natura Bisse is a Spanish skincare line and let me tell you upfront that I've just googled it and found it on sale for over £230. I received this small sample in an event gift bag and didn't touch it for ages, however when I did, it was used religiously every morning given its perfect consistency and texture for under make up. I never realised it was some sort of wonder serum which scores 4.7/5 on Makeup Alley. It contains loads of fancy skincare Science, but I think at the time my skin was thankfully too young for me to notice any major changes.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Clinique Sheer City Block SPF 25 - no repurchase</h3>
This has been a perennial favourite since my early 20s. I still have one more back tube to power through and then I'm done with this stuff, I just feel I've outgrown it. I'm not entirely convinced by its SPF 25 claim, although it is pretty greasy. A few years ago it was the only tinted moisturiser pale enough for me, but cosmetics companies have woken up to the fact that daywalkers like make up too, so there's a lot more on colour range on the market to choose from now. My current favourite is No7 Triple Protection Tinted Moisturiser with SPF 15, not very greasy but fabulous buildable coverage and a great shade for ginger skin.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Clinique Pore Minimizer Refining Serum - no repurchase</h3>
This was another Clinique staple until recently, and like the City Block I have another tube to get through even though I'm over it. Stockpiling and buying back ups is a beauty blogger ritual, but I'd advise against it because there are always so many new fabulous products on the market there's just no point. There will always be a hotter, younger product to take your fancy! I would hardly call this stuff 'serum' because once it sinks into skin and dries, it almost has a chalky texture. I find it hard to find an appropriate time to use it on its own because my skin has become less oily than it used to be and so I definitely need some sort of moisture over the top. However, if you struggle with super oily skin, this may work as a good make up primer for you as it's pretty absorptive.<br />
<br />
<h3>
GHD Thermal Protector - no repurchase </h3>
I received this with my GHDs many moons ago and it was a slog to get through because I didn't really feel it did much to protect my hair, and I am quite naughty in being lazy with heat protectors. The best thing about it is the Gucci Rush scent.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Nivea Visage Aqua Sensation Anti Shadow Eye Cream - no repurchase </h3>
Forever Amber <a href="http://networkedblogs.com/2G0KN" target="_blank">wrote about it</a> a few years ago raving about it's under-eye-shadow busting properties. It 's a great eye cream for the budget price, and if you're just starting out with skincare I'd highly recommend it. However my eyes need anti-aging and luckily my dark circles aren't too bad. For now.<br />
<br />
<h3>
Bio-Oil - maybe repurchase</h3>
<div>
When I was on the pill a few years ago, its diuretic properties gave me super dry legs so in a bid to relieve the itchy hell I tried out Bio-Oil. It really did the job of reviving my poor parched skin, but it just smells so dang nasty, like some sort of medicated treatment rather than something nice and luxurious to pamper yourself with. Fair enough that it's raison d'etre is to sort out scars and other skin blemishes, but I really think the brand, and if possible, the scent could do with some serious sexing up. An equally nice treatment for super dry skin in <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2011/04/ive-started-buying-baby-stuff.html" target="_blank">Waitrose's Baby Bottom Butter</a>. It's mega cheap, so hydrating and smells far better than Bio-Oil. </div>

This February empties post is ridiculously late, but I'm sure you'll forgive me as it's a haircare special! My March review will be up very soon also. As a point of reference, my hair is pretty normal; greasy roots, dry ends (from the constant washing to get rid of oily roots) and easily tamable.<br />

Liz Earle Botanical Shine Shampoo & Conditioner* - no repurchase </h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For a shampoo that doesn't contain Sodium Lauryl/Laureth Sulphate we actually got on pretty well. While it didn't give my hair the cleanse of the century, it's good for everyday washes where I don't need a very strong detergent. It contains shea butter, apple and orange extracts, making it both nourishing and shine-enhancing. It's £8.75 and although it claims a little goes a long way, I didn't find this the case and probably won't repurchase. I definitely wouldn't repurchase the conditioner either because it wasn't very...erm...conditioning! (despite it being aimed at dry/damaged hair). However, it is apparently colour-safe, not a concern for me as I don't colour mine anymore. I'd rather invest in a tub of the legendary <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2012/12/last-minute-christmas-gift-idea-12.html" target="_blank">Kerastase Masquintense</a> (review).</div>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Kerastase Nectar Thermique* - definite repurchase </h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This stuff is amazing. A slightly more high brow version of L'Oreal Elvive Renutrition serum which is divine but doesn't have the heat protection properties of Nectar Thermique. This stuff smells amazing, you only need a small blob and it is ideal for fine hair which can flag under heavy hair oils. When I had this, it was my one stop shop for hair styling, I didn't need anything else. It's around £15, but well worth it as it lasts a couple of months (I wash my hair practically every day).<br />

Elvive Nourish & Shimmer Highlights Serum - no repurchase</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a bog standard serum with that lovely smell of the Elvive Renutrition range. I can't tell you how long it took me to get through the bottle, but no doubt it's been through a repackaging. I found it a little too heavy for daytime use so ended up smoothing it through my ends before bed and using it as an overnight leave-in treatment before washing out in the morning. </div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
L'Oreal Professionnel Mythic Oil* - maybe repurchase</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was the first hair oil I tried and it's a pretty decent offering. Moroccan Oil is far too heavy for my hair but Mythic Oil is just the right consistency when used on wet hair. The only thing off-putting is the scent: it's just not feminine enough for me. L'Oreal have since brought out a cheaper Elvive version and there's no discernible difference in performance. You can pick up Mythic Oil for around £16.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
John Frieda Blonder - no repurchase</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This shampoo does lighten your hair over time, and it was fine while I had highlights, but they've pretty much grown out now. If you're looking to lighten your hair, leave it to the professionals because this shampoo lightens indiscriminately and leaves hair looking brassy. Worst of all, I found it a little corrosive. I wouldn't recommend using it in the shower as it will really dry out your skin. Definitely give this one a miss. If you're blonde you're better off trying the purple tone correcting range. </div>

<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
Aveda Dry Remedy Shampoo* - no repurchase</h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is possibly the worst shampoo I've ever used. It feels like a body cream and fails at shifting grease at the roots (nice!). I can only see this working for someone with haystack hair who suffers from chronically dry tresses. At around £20 for 200mls, this is a definite non repurchase.</div>

I finally upgraded to a decent camera last week and this is my first post with the fruits of its labour. I'm totally clueless with it and have just been keeping it on auto, so hang in there until I get time to read the manual or watch a few YouTube tutes. All I can say is that I'm loving it for low light conditions. My trusty old Panasonic Lumix TZ7 is still fabulous for daytime macro shots, but struggles at elegantly lit events.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Anyway, I'm here to wax lyrical about my love for this new primer kid on the block. At the blogger launch event last week at the Waldorf Astoria I walked in expecting it to be some sort of Nanoblur knock off. I haven't tried Nanoblur and despite giving it to my mum for Christmas she hasn't broken into the tube yet. Call me crazy but I think she was insulted by the gift! Nanoblur is apparently water based while Perfect Blur is Silicone based, and with my limited scientific knowledge I'm assuming that this means it's smoother. Comparing it to L'Oreal Studio Secrets Smoothing Resurfacing Primer, Benefit Porefessional and Clinique Pore Refining Solutions Instant Perfector, I prefer Garnier Perfect Blur to all of them.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
It's super smooth and has a really mousse-whipped consistency. I first tried it OVER make up (liquid and powder foundation) and was astounded when it actually worked to smooth things out, mattify and generally freshen up my look. This was one of Nanoblur's claims that I was very skeptical about, but Perfect Blur delivers on this. Under make up it's even better, I love how velvety it makes my skin feel. We were given small tubs of the stuff and I've reached for it every day before applying make up. What I really love it for is lazy days when all I want to do is moisturise, Perfect Blur and cover up with powder. It gives a super smooth and flawless finish to my skin without having to touch my liquid foundation. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
While it initially mattifies my skin, it doesn't keep it matte for very long. Silicone-based products always leave me a bit shiny after an hour or so. The best thing about it for me is it lessens the appearance of pores and fine lines on my forehead. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

You may have already seen the Babyliss Hot Big Hair Hot Air doing the rounds on YouTube and I initially thought this Vidal Sassoon styler would work along the same lines. From what I can see from demos of it, they're quite different as this barrel doesn't rotate making it a bit easier to use for hair styling novices or super lazy people like me!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I had visions of creating a Kate Middleton flicky blow dry, but I had to manage my expectations downwards after the first five minutes wrestling with it. It's 1000W so does actually dry hair quite effectively, but I found it much more time consuming that my usual technique of tipping my head upside down and going at it with a normal hairdryer. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If your hair requires a bit more styling effort than this - if you HAVE to blow dry it properly with a big round barrel brush every time, then this is much easier to handle than a brush and blow dryer and you'll only be left with one dead arm rather than two!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This styler would work best on short to mid length hair - I think mine is slightly too long and therefore too heavy to create any meaningful volume. I'd also recommend using it on at least 50% dry hair - unless you have a lot of time to devote to hair styling!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The large attachment - 50mm - is best for drying hair quickly, the smaller 25mm barrel works best for creating flicky curly ends and creates a straight style with more volume that poker straight flat ironing. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Overall it gave me a bit more volume at the crown, but you have to watch how you position the barrel. The ends look much more 'finished' than usual thanks to the ionic generator to eliminate frizz. If you've got silky, smooth hair already that you struggle to volumise I'd stay away from Ionic stylers as they tend to just flatten the hair. I had an iconic hairdryer years ago and chucked it as my hair felt practically greasy after drying it. Thankfully the Vidal Sassoon ionic technology doesn't do this. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

The Vidal Sassoon Shine Envy Hot Air Styler* is £39.99 (as of 07/02/2013 it's got £5 off) and exclusive to <a href="http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/4439615.htm" target="_blank">Argos</a>.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
You may have already seen my <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2013/02/monthly-empties-review-series-january.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: magenta;">special review post on perfumes</span></a> I've 'emptied' recently, but as promised here are the other bits and bobs I've powered through in January. Many of these have been hanging around my dressing table and bathroom cabinet for too long and I'm glad to see the back of them and create space for new exciting things! </h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
...Yes, I really do need to get out more.</h3>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Neutrogena Deep Clean Make Up Remover: Refreshing Oil-Free Cleansing Lotion - no repurchase </b></h3>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I bought this off the back of a recommendation from Laura's (Lollipop26 now buynowbloglater) blog many moons ago and while it was an 'okay' make up remover it's definitely not an all rounder and didn't do very well with waterproof mascara, or any mascara for that matter despite the claims. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are so many other efficient all-in-one cleansers on the market now like hot cloth cream cleansers and very liquid solutions like Bioderma that you'd be better off investing in rather than having to use multiple products in your cleansing regime. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, if you don't tend to use eye make up and like the old lotion and a cotton pad routine, this is a nice option as it is refreshing and doesn't leave too much of a nasty residue, although you do get the urge to wash and/or tone afterwards.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>L'Oreal Elvive Re-Nutrition Replenishing Masque - definite repurchase </b></h3>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Elvive make many a hair masque, but none smell as delicious as their Re-Nutrition range. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's great for those days you feel your hair needs more than a standard bottle conditioner but you don't have the time to put in a Kerastase masque. When I 'Kerastase' my hair I always leave it on at least 20 minutes 'cos that stuff ain't cheap and I want to make sure I get my money's worth!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even if your hair doesn't need conditioning, just buy this for the heavenly scent!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Organic Surge Eye Gel* - no repurchase</b></h3>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I honestly can't remember if I got this free with a magazine or if it was sent to me, so I've included a disclosing little asterisk just in case. It sat around for ages as I was never one to tend to eyecare in my morning routine, but the ravages of age kicked in and now I wouldn't dream of ditching my routine. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've moved over to using a more moisturising undereye cream in the morning but gel was a nice little introduction. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's refreshing and sinks in fast and was a treat for sleep-wearing eyes. However at this stage in my life I really need something more anti-aging for that area and so won't be repurchasing.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>No7 Protect & Protect Intense Beauty Serum - no repurchase</b></h3>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Note that this is the INTENSE serum. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I absolutely adore the regular version of Protect & Perfect Serum and thought that the Intense one would ramp it's amazing properties up a notch. It certainly does, but for once, my skin is too young for this product.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Every time I used it (and as you can see I carried onto the bitter end determined not be be defeated!) my skin felt overloaded and I woke up the next morning with the beginnings of spots. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I am not spot prone at all which God is his almighty wisdom chose to spare me from, so if you are then this serum would go Rambo on your face.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Essentially this heavy serum is aimed at mature/parched skin - at least 45+ - so if you're under this, stick with the original version which is a few quid cheaper anyway.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Aussie Aussome Volume Shampoo - no repurchase</b></h3>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm a huge fan of their Miracle Moisture shampoo which is a treat for frazzled hair, but if used all the time translates into lank hair, for me anyway.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's always handy to have a volumising shampoo around for days your hair feels like it needs a REALLY good clean. Essentially what they do is strip out the product buildup, and some of your hair's natural oils in a bid to counteract lankness and therefore promote volume.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This Aussie shampoo did a good job and I did repurchase several times, but this will be my last bottle as I've since discovered Bumble & Bumble's Sunday Shampoo which is harsh but very good at removing buildup. I have super greasy hair mind, so it might be too harsh for normal/dry hair types. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also wasn't keen on the scent of this Aussie shampoo, odd because their known for great smelling products. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<h3>
<b>Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Gel - no repurchase</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was part of a Clinique skincare set so I didn't feel massively let down when it didn't live up to it's claims. Simply put, it didn't make my skin 'dramatically different'.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The major drawback is no SPF - in something designed to be your main daily facial skincare product, it's just not on.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I do have oily skin so the gel formula worked well and created a good base for applying foundation over, but I don't feel it brought any benefit to my skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Obviously this Clinique range is aimed at problem skin, so I can see where this lotion might be a good option for someone looking to get some moisture into their skin without overloading it and exacerbating break outs.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Nice to try as it's one of those raved about products, but I can't see a repurchase on the horizon.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<h3>
<b>Boots Teatree + Witchhazel Cleansing and Toning Lotion - maybe repurchase</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">I can't even tell you how long I've had this toner but let's just say it's been through a repackaging and doubled in price!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">This toner isn't for the faint hearted. It STRIPS yours skin. But I'm such a greasey monkey I sometimes feel I need it.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">I've been through the most extensive cleansing routine, been 100% sure every scrap of make up is removed and then swiped a bit of this on a cotton pad only to be horrified. No pictorial evidence as there might be minors reading this!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">If you like Clinique Clarifying Lotion which is equally as eye-watering harsh, it's a fab budget alternative. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">The more I think about it's amazing grime removing properties, the more I want a full bottle in my skincare arsenal again. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Have you tried anything from this motley crew? Anything you would definitely repurchase?</span></h3>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Elemis Freshskin Softly Softly Daily Moisturiser*, 50ml, £20, <a href="http://www.timetospa.co.uk/skincare/teens-to-twenties-skincare/freshskin-by-elemis-softly-softly-daily-moisturiser.aspx" target="_blank">Buy here</a> </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<b>Elemis Freshskin Peachy Perfect Gentle Face Wash*, 100ml, £12, <a href="http://www.timetospa.co.uk/skincare/teens-to-twenties-skincare/freshskin-by-elemis-peachy-perfect-gentle-face-wash.aspx" target="_blank">Buy here</a></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The Elemis Freshskin range launched a little over a year ago, aimed at those in their teens to early twenties as an accessible and more affordable introduction to the luxury brand for those on a tighter budget, or young skin which doesn't need unpronounceable ingredients to stave off the march of time and gravity.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Although I'm a couple of years away from having 'young skin' I put the face wash and daily moisturiser to the test and am happy to report that my skin has responded well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The face wash is lightly perfumed and leaves your skin feeling clean but not tight. It contains extracts of chicory for hydrating, elderflower for conditioning and lemon to awaken. It's a nice, basic face wash and seems less harsh than cheaper high street options while still being an effective cleanser. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The moisturiser is equally gentle on sensitive skin and does a good job of moisturising skin without leaving it feeling clogged or greasy which is important if you've got oily/teenage skin. However, one huge drawback is that it contains no SPF at all, not even SPF10. This really is unacceptable as you are never too young to start protecting your skin against harmful sun damage, and the earlier you start the better. Therefore I tend to just use this moisturiser at night after a serum when I'm not feeling like applying a heavy night cream.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Other products of note in the range include Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash, Tired Eyes Soothing Eye Rescue and Super Boost Moisturising Serum.</div>

Something a little different for my Empties Review Series this month - a special on a few perfumes I've finished up recently. I'll still be doing a normal finished products review at some point over the next few days, so keep a look out for that coming up.</h3>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Britney Spears <i>Fantasy</i> (Original) - maybe repurchase </b></h3>
<div>
This was my second bottle and I have a third waiting to be cracked open. <br />
Personally I'm not too keen on the scent, but the fellas sure are! It's like catnip for boys. Nice boys. Not like the weirdos attracted by Jean Paul Gaultier's Classique, but more on that later.<br />
It's unbearable sweet and candyflossy, with a hint of something darker and spicier. What more could a fella want? For me it's just too synthetic and unsophisticated. But it'll do wonders for your pulling ability if you're under 30. Over that milestone and I'd give it a miss unless you're just after 'a bit of fun'.<br />
Boots often have it on amazing offers. This 30ml bottle was nabbed for around £13, so don't pay over the odds for it if you're tempted.<br />
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b><i>Chloe Eau de Parfum</i> - definite repurchase (already have!) </b></h3>
<div>
What can I say about this perfume other than I think I've found my signature scent. It's like fresh, floral, sweet and just reminds me of clean linen. <br />
I loved it from first sniff and have received so many compliments on it. The only downside is that it's a bit TOO popular, saying that I haven't smelled it off that may other gals. For some reason the name 'Chloe' just won't stick in my head so I keep telling people it's 'Clinique'. I think it must stem from a subconscious urge to keep this scent all to myself. <br />
When I first got it and asked my ex what he thought of it, proferring up my neck for sniffing he said 'it just smells like you'. <br />
I took it as a compliment. <br />
Some of you 80s lot might remember the discontinued Givenchy L'Interdit, if so, it smells a lot like that. I had a sample vial of it when I was about 10 and made it last for years, with stolen sniffs here and there. I never did get a full bottle but that's okay, 'cos I've got Chloe now.<br />
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Katie Price <i>Stunning</i> - no repurchase; I'm done</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is an interesting one because while I'm done with the sickly sweetness, I would recommend it to you!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's a TOTAL DUPE for Dior Miss Cherie and I've gone into it's cheeky sameness here (<a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2010/06/kat-copies-miss-dior-cherie.html" target="_blank">link</a>)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Dear old Katie Price, you can just imagine her saying 'Stunnin'! Emphasis on the 'nin'. She did good though, and having owned both scents and confirmed there is no discernible difference, Stunning actually lasts longer on the skin, even my ginger 'Teflon' skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's a much cheaper alternative to Dior Miss Cherie, just never take it out in public and never admit that it's not The Real Thing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Dolce & Gabbana <i>The One</i> - maybe repurchase</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I adore this perfume, but again, so do so many others! I would consider repurchasing but would most likely go for the 'Rose' version as it's just that bit more feminine and less synthetic.<br />
Gorgeous sophisticated scent and pretty bottle, but unless you have a Travalo it's not a good option to carry around in your bag or on holiday as it's super heavy. <br />
The only drawback with this perfume is it just doesn't linger, I feel like by the time I get to work, the scent has evaporated.<br />
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Marc Jacobs <i>Daisy</i> - no repurchase; I'm over it</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was a present from an ex, and although I did indicate it was what I wanted, I was bored of it by the fourth spritz. It's just a bit bland (good option for an office scent though as it's unobtrusive) and a few years ago everyone seemed to be wearing it. <br />
It was a slog to get the bottle finished, I actually can't believe I'm done with it!<br />
In four years of exposure to light it didn't oxidise or discolour and the scent remained true, so that's one thing it's got going for it.<br />

<b style="text-align: left;"><br /></b></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b style="text-align: left;">Dolce & Gabbana <i>Light Blue </i>- maybe repurchase; not anytime soon</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Love love love this perfume, on the dry down it smells mouth watering. This is about my sixth bottle of it so although I will repurchase at some stage, I feel we need a bit of distance right now.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">It's another one of those perfume like Daisy that EVERYONE was wearing a few years ago, but I feel like it's gone off the radar so it would be a good option to revive if you're looking for a all-round perfume that is perfect for the office but also sexy enough for a night out.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<h3>
Jean Paul Gaultier<i> Classique</i> - no repurchase; I like not being approached by weirdos too much</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My second bottle of this was a mistake, but I'd bought a mini of it first time round and felt we weren't 'done' yet, so of course I had to go and ask for the Christmas giftbox-set.<br />
I think this perfume smells different on everyone, and although it's very popular, I never notice it on anyone when I'm out and about, I think it does a really good job of blending with your own skin's chemistry to create something unique.<br />
Unique is one word for how it must have smelled off my skin because it simply attracted all the weirdos of the day. This one shady Russian dude proposed to me on the street - twice - when I was wearing this. I 'm pretty sure he didn't even realise I was the same person on both disturbing occasions.<br />
I'd heard about the male attention Classique can inspire, and in all honesty, it's what prompted me to buy it all those years ago out of curiosity because at the time the scent was definitely far too 'mature' for my liking. But don't be tempted, it only inspires the kind of attention you <i>don't</i> want from the kind of blokes you definitely <i>don't</i> want!<br />

Don't you love it when you find a new mascara to love?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Maybelline's new Rocket Volum' Express Mascara* thickened, lengthened, fanned and held the curl in my lashes impressively well - I expect the Waterproof formula would do the latter even better.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Very few plastic wands appeal to me, but the bristles (that would be the jet glide brush!) are so fine and pliable that coupled with the incredibly smooth formula, clumping is kept at bay. My lashes are happily quite plentiful so I experience a measure of clumping with all mascara, but on someone with denser, finer lashes, Rocket Volum' would work even better.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
It's currently on offer at Boots, so you can take your lashes into space for a mere £5.99. </div>

Tonight I popped along to a swanky venue (which is actually someone's swish real-life home!) for a preview showcase of L'Oreal's Spring/Summer 2013 products.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
There was an exhaustive array of lovely brand new products and new shades and formulations of tried and tested favourites.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I haven't ventured out to a blogger event in a while but I bumped into the lovely <b><a href="http://www.gemsmaquillage.com/" target="_blank">Gemma</a></b> and <a href="http://www.beautyjunkielondon.com/" target="_blank"><b>Jen</b></a> and met <a href="http://www.reallyree.com/" target="_blank"><b>Ree</b></a>, who were all so sweet - you probably already follow them but check out their links.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'm most excited about the Nude Magique CC (colour correction) Creams (£9.99), BB Blush (£7.99) and Glam Shine Stain Splashes (£7.99) which are a lipstain/lipgloss hybrid and will be available in 8 shades.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My pretty manicure is Color Riche Dating Coral with Gold Lurex topcoat. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I won't go into detail on the products now, but I'll be playing with these all over the next few weeks and will let you know how I get on and what you really have to look out for when they launch over the next few months in your highstreet.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Drop me a comment below on which products you'd like me to review first.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black - definite repurchase </b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a phenomenal drugstore/bargain mascara, and it's finally come to UK shores. The wand reminds me of Lancome Hypnose and the formula is almost as dark and sooty as Make Up Forever Smoky Lash, without the price tags of either of these. It's a fantastic all-round mascara which I use for both day and night - thickening, lengthening and holds a curl pretty well. Next time you're in Boots or Superdrug, you have to give this one a go.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Original Source Vanilla and Raspberry Shower - maybe repurchase </b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I forgot how delicious this smells until the empty bottle out to review and now it's been upgraded from a 'no repurchase' to a definite 'maybe'. It's a real treat to use but I found I got through it very quickly, but you can always get these on offer so it's not too sore on the purse. It's very moisturising and I prefer it to their more zingy shower gel offerings.</div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b><br /></b></h3>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Yes to Blueberries Age Refresh Anti-Wrinkle Intensive Repair Serum* - maybe repurchase</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is a really nice everyday serum. I have a fuller review of this and the accompanying night cream coming up, but I got through this serum first as I found myself reaching for it every single morning. It sinks in quickly and provided a great base for make up if I didn't feel like waiting for a cream to sink in. Naughty I know as it doesn't have SPF in it, but in a rush it did the trick. The blueberry smell is fresh and comforting. I'm seriously thinking about picking this up again.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Garnier Body Summerbody Moisturising Lotion - Light Sunkissed Look - definite repurchase</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As much I loved this self-tanner, it took me an age to get through it. That had more to do with the fact that I'm very lazy with applying it and rock the Twilight look more than I should. I've tried countless gradual tanners and this is by far the best budget option. It has a fresh fruity smell with only minimal biscuity whiffyness compared to all your Dove, Nivea, Johnson's, etc offerings. It sinks in extremely quickly, does a good job at moisturising, doesn't streak and gives a really natural tanned glow, even to my ginger skin which can end up looking orange. If you are a tanaholic and haven't tried this one yet, you must. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>YSL Touche Eclat - maybe repurchase</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I don't even want to admit to you how long I've had this radiance wand, but between you and me, it began 'not smelling right'. That has more to do with me 'saving' it for special occasions rather than the longevity of the whopping 2.5mls of radiant liquid. Since it joined my collection there have been so many other dupes coming onto the market - Sleek MakeUP, Aldi, L'Oreal, Collection 2000 to name a few really budget versions. These give me pretty much the same effect as Touche Eclat. I can only see myself repurchasing this to have a pretty gold wand in my handbag make up bag for touch ups, which has more to do with style than substance.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
<b>Yes to Cucumbers Daily Gentle Facial Cleanser* - maybe repurchase </b></h3>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This was one of the nicest facial washes I used last here. For a full review <a href="http://www.clickandmake-up.com/2012/03/some-current-skincare.html" target="_blank">click here</a>. It smells divine - not as fresh as you would expect from a cucumber product but quite perfumed. This may be an issue for those with sensitive skin. Although it lathers up very well, it left my skin cleansed and soft, not tight. A really nice product which I'd definitely repurchase, particularly if it was easier to come by on the high street.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
<h3>
The Body Shop Banana Shampoo - definite repurchase</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This is an old classic which I think was revived by The Body Shop, but don't quote me on that. Anyway, I'm glad it's back. I would compare it to Aussie Moisture Miracle Shampoo, both in scent, lathering and hair cleansing properties. I use Aussie so much I was getting a little bored and I think it's good to switch up your shampoo every so often - my hair is very oily and gets used to shampoos so quickly. The Body Shop Banana Shampoo smells lovely, evokes memories and does a good job of cleaning hair without stripping it, and leaving it shiny and easy to comb through. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will be doing this 'Empties' series on a monthly basis. It seemed like whole months passed in 2012 without me finishing so much as one product. I'm not very loyal to products and flit between different skincare, makeup, hair products daily, but in 2013 I am going to be much more focused getting through my stash and I'll let you know each month how I get on. I did pretty well in December, with no 'no repurchases' come across, but I'm sure there'll be some in the future. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">
Have you tried any of my December Empties? What would you repurchase/definitely not repurchase?</h3>

Fear not, blogging mojo is still going strong...just not here! I’ve got literally 184 beauty posts in the pipeline, but over the weekend I was a little distracted by <a href="http://www.portobellopearls.com/" target="_blank">my other blog</a>. I won’t call it a ‘lifestyle’ blog as that term is horribly pretentious, so it shall be known as my ‘freetime’ blog.</div>

My friend Angel Armogida who you might be familiar with because I'm always mentioning her <a href="http://www.youtube.com/angelarmogida" target="_blank">Youtube beauty channel</a> has been a busy bee for the last few months designing her first collection of beautiful dresses and launching her business. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'm so proud of her - she's done everything from scratch from designing and making the dresses, designing all the branding, packaging, website and modelling, photographing and videoing the collection. PHEW! That's the fun stuff, she's also been registering her business and bulldozing through HMRC, Company's House and bank bureaucracy. It's been a long journey but I know it won't be long until all her hard work pays off!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I'm delighted to show you her handmade in London creations and if any of them take your fancy you can buy your size, or a custom size, from <a href="http://www.angelarmogida.com/">www.angelarmogida.com</a>. Make sure to like her <a href="https://www.facebook.com/AngelArmogida" target="_blank">Facebook page</a> too for special offers and free shipping codes. Here's to supporting British creativity, design and business - why not treat yourself or a loved one to a made to order hand crafted dress?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
She's got more collections coming up, but for now, take a look at these beauties:</div>

Packaging is important. Each dress is carefully wrapped in quality black tissue paper before being packed in a durable storage box tied with black satin ribbon. Every box has the name of the dress spelled out in rhinestones. You will be so impressed, you'll even want to keep the swing tag!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For those of you who know about astrology, let's just say my Saturn Return was and still is, in full swing.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The changes it brings about can be painful (particularly if yours in in Scorpio - yay for me :S), but they are necessary to help you become the person you need to be. Clearly I had a lot of transforming to do, so my path has been a little rougher than others. Woe is me! </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Seriously though, whether or not celestial bodies are involved, I think everyone's late 20s involve massive life changes - travel, moving house, moving jobs, starting and ending relationships and losing loved ones. These experiences prepare you for your 30s and help you decide which direction you life is going in.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This blog was definitely a casualty and many times, when I just couldn't find the inclination to wax lyrical about a new lipstick when so much else was going on, I thought about jacking it in. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I'm glad I didn't. I'm trying not to carry regrets with me anymore, but I do have a niggling regret that there are such large gaps between my posts on here over the last year. Every time I thought I got my mojo back it turned out to be a false alarm, and I didn't just want to churn out any old rubbish. Anyone can use stock photos and cut and paste press releases, but I like to spend a long time over taking the photos, editing them and writing the post content in a way that is personal to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One good thing I did last year was take a Photoshop course. I learned lots of things, which I promptly forgot, but I retained the basics and it's made editing the photos for this site much easier. I will be going back over my notes to develop my skills. My OCD makes me pretty good at retouching old cracked and discoloured photos. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Thank you so much for hanging around while there are so many other amazing blogs to follow. I lost a few people along the way, but amazingly gained so many new readers who came across my older content from Google searches and links from other lovely bloggers. I kept up with the proliferation of fantastic new beauty and lifestyle blogs which sprung up during my hiatus and they in many ways inspired me to come back to blogging. </div>

I plan to be just like this little kitten in 2013:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Procrastination. The great time thief.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I always make some sort of New Year resolution, sometimes a whole list, but this year I haven't written anything down until now. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
My main goal for 2013 is to <b>STOP PROCRASTINATING</b>! I have a tonne of ideas and plans for the things I want to do and I can't wait to start putting them into action. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Some specific resolutions which will only be achieved if I take care of the main one, are:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Get thin for thirty</b>. When I say thin, for me this means letting my body settle to its ideal weight. I want to achieve a good balance of eating well, sleeping well and exercising well. I want to be the best version of myself. Last year I lost the weight I piled on during a fraught relationship (30lbs/over 2 stone). Over the past few months I've put on about half a stone, but I have a goal of losing a further 2 stone. I'll probably write about my past and future chunk-shedding journeys at <a href="http://www.portobellopearls.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">my other blog</a>.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Sleep More</b>. Be in bed <u><b>asleep</b></u> by 11pm on school night. (I wouldn't bet on this one...)</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Read more</b>. Since I stopped taking the bus to work I just can't seem to find the time to read. Kindles, iPads, a massive bookcase of books have failed to shift my literacy lurch. I try to read the Economist nearly every week as it's more time efficient that reading a newspaper everyday, but it's hard to find the time to finish it, and I hate being surrounded by half-read things. Please leave me a comment below with any recommended reads for me.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Save not Spend</b>. I am quite good at saving generally, but sometimes I do get carried away. I need to reign this in and rather than shoving whatever's left over at the end of the month into savings, decide at the beginning of the month what my spending budget will be (rent, travel, food, socialising, shopping) and immediately push a chunk into savings.</li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Better Beauty Routine</b>. This is related to my fitness resolution as positive changes on the inside translate on the outside. I need to be more regimental in my skincare routine. I'm good with eyecreams and always put some sort of concoction on my face before bed, but I really need to make more use of masks and scrubs. This year I really noticed a lot more fine lines on my forehead and around my eyes (crying is so bloody ageing!) but I've been using a couple of skincare products which have really made a difference. It's amazing, I can't believe they're actually working. I'll be blogging about them soon. The key with beauty routines is consistency. No point using a bank breaking serum on your face a couple of nights a week, better off to use a more budget friendly alternative that still packs some key ingredients, every night. </li>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b><strike>Travel</strike> Staycation</b>. The last few years have been quite jet set, but sometimes I find all the effort that goes into planning, shopping for and recovering from a holiday abroad just add up to you not having a proper 'restful' break. I don't tan so I don't really do beach holidays which are relaxing, so instead I turn into a weird supertourist who gets up at the crack of dawn to see everything of interest and follow this up by going clubbing. It's exhausting. I love London and there is still so much of it I haven't explored that I'm seriously thinking of staycationing for a week this year. I also need to sort another cruise holiday for the mummy and me. </li>
</ul>
<div>
I think that's about it.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Ah no! I forgot a very important one!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Be a better blogger</b>. Well, the' betterness' is for you lot to judge, but 'better' to me means 'consistent'! When I first started my blog I spent hours on it every evening and weekends. To be honest it got a little bit too much and I could have been a lot more efficient with my time if I worked a little smarter.</li>
<ul>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Blogging Routine.</b> For a while I've wanted to get into a proper routine, I just need to accept that I'm Type A and get on with it! Executing a blog post in one go - picking the topics, taking and editing the photos and then writing the content all in one go - is definitely not the best use of time. I always have a million ideas for posts swirling around, so I've taken a lovely new Liberty notebook and committed them to paper. The plan is to devote one full day per month to blogging, and the odd Saturday or Sunday afternoon. School nights are for catching up with friends, gym, beauty events and reading books and blogs. </li>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
</div>
<li style="text-align: justify;"><b>Photography.</b> I will 'batch photograph' when there is good lighting, edit and save them for a rainy afternoon when I can sit down a write a few posts in one go. I also want to splash out for a 'proper' DSLR camera. </li>
</ul>
</ul>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One huge plan is to start blogging at <a href="http://www.portobellopearls.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">Portobello Pearls</a> again. I want to keep Click & Make-Up purely beauty oriented, so lots of the other things I get up to will be over there.</div>

A lot of people are very 'routine averse' thinking that it means stamping out any joy or spontaneity from life, but experience has taught me that without routine, you never get anything done!

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Right! Here's my 12th and final Last Minute Christmas Gift Idea. I hope you found my 11th hour guide useful, and you could always treat yourself to something in the sales. I hope you all have a wonderful Christmas and I have a feeling that 2013 is going to be an amazing year for everyone (now that we've survived the ending of the Mayan calendar and all!). Thank you so much for hanging around during 2012 which was a difficult year for me in a number of ways. I plan to be a much better blogger in 2013 and am going to set some bloggy resolutions for 2013 which I'll share with you in a few days.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">This is more of practical present, maybe something you can treat yourself to, but I would sure like to find this in my stocking on Christmas morning. I've tried a few hair masks from Kerastase and this by far leaves my hair in the best condition. The best way to use it is to shampoo your hair, towel dry it and then apply a glob of Masqueintense, pop on a shower cap and leave it for about half an hour. You can immediately feel how nourished and restored your hair feels after one of these treatments. I would like to have the time to do one once a week, but even getting to it once a month helps.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">I paid upwards of £25 for this in a salon, but have found it on <a href="http://www.lookfantastic.com/kerastase-nutritive-masquintense-fins/10302663.html" target="_blank">Feel Unique for £21</a>.</span></div>

If you haven't tried No7's Protect & Perfect Beauty Serum you must have been living under a rock for the last 5 years, but if you have then you know what a great little product it is to get dull, tired skin feeling smooth and cared for again. I'm on my umpteenth tube of this (I do miss when it was in glass bottles as it just felt so much more luxurious to use) and will always have it in my skincare collection. They recently changed the packaging to the tube form after customer feedback as it's such a cult product women want to be able to travel with it and not have to decant into lighter packaging. I've also tried the slightly more expensive Intense version of the serum but it broke me out as it's just too intensive and aimed at mature skin. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
The Instant Illusion Wrinkle Filler is something I picked up on a whim during a No7 promotion. It's essentially pollyfila for anyone with noticeable pores and the beginnings of wrinkles. It smooths on a lot like Benefit's Porefessional but is white in colour rather than flesh toned. It creates a wonderfully smooth base for foundation and just helps to you give you that 'airbrushed' look. You can also just pop a bit of powder over the top of it for a low key face base if you haven't got the time or inclination for liquid foundation. </div>

Luxury make up is one of the nicest things to receive at Christmas, and Estée Lauder is a great option for pretty packing and great quality product at a pretty reasonable price. This <a href="http://www.harrods.com/brand/estee-lauder" target="_blank">Estée Lauder</a> Pure Color EyeShadow Palette Topaz Mosaic* is £35 from <a href="http://www.harrods.com/product/pure-color-eyeshadow-palette-topaz-mosaic/estee-lauder/000000000002724638?cat1=bc-estee-lauder&cat2=bc-makeup&cat3=bc-eyeshadow">Harrods</a> and offers a great mix of neutral shades with the option to take them from day to night with the the gorgeous plummy-brown shade.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The palette consists of four satin shades and one metallic. These orange toned shades really make blue eyes stand out, but if you have brown eyes I would recommend the <a href="http://www.harrods.com/product/pure-color-palette-blue-dahlia/estee-lauder/000000000002232614?cat1=bc-estee-lauder&cat2=bc-makeup&cat3=bc-eyeshadow">Pure Colour Palette in Blue Dahlia</a>. The only shade in this palette I would change is the bright yellow in the middle for a paler, champange colour which would work better as an inner corner crease, centre of the lid highlight or brow highlight as I find the yellow just a bit too overstated to work with for these areas - example below.</div>

Did you know that <a href="http://www.harrods.com/brand/estee-lauder" target="_blank">Estée Lauder</a> do lots of other funky powder compacts? They got gold ones with signs of the Zodiac and a few other designs, and there's even a Christmas Bear perfume compact exclusive to Harrods - check them out <a href="http://www.harrods.com/brand/estee-lauder/harrods-exclusives">here</a>.</div>

If you're looking for something special for someone special and have a substantial budget, you can't go wrong with a Michael Kors watch. The craze kicked off a couple of years ago for 'boyfriend sized' gold and rose gold watches and Michael Kors does these best. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
I picked up the Parker MK5616 model when I was in New York last Spring and despite how fickle I am, my love for it is still going strong. I think the MK5616 is one of the more wearable styles and won't date as easily as some of the larger funkier models. I picked mine up in Bloomingdales for $250 less the 10% discount for being a foreigner, woo! You can get it here at <a href="http://www.houseoffraser.co.uk/Michael+Kors+Mk5616+Parker/166040043,default,pd.html" target="_blank">House of Fraser for £229</a>. The complete indifference of retailers to the currency exchange rate mechanism is lamentable, but if you don't know anyone going Stateside soon you will just have to bite the bullet on good old GB prices! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
One word of warning about Michael Kors watches - they are in fact made by Fossil. While I love my Fossil watches, I find it very cheeky that you're paying such a mark up just to flash the MK badge for what is just Fossil quality. I do think that the rhinestones have dulled a little since, but at least none have fallen out. Remember to be careful not to spray perfumes or other aerosols near it as it may discolour the metal.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
All in all, it was $250 dollars well spent - who wouldn't love to open a rose gold beauty on Christmas morning?!</div>

The Instant Boost Skin Tonic Spritzer* is a great toner and in this spray bottle it reminds me to Caudalie's Beauty Elixir, and is much better value at only £13 for 200ml. While this is a great product to keep in the fridge in the hot months for a refreshing boost, I've been using mine through winter to perk up my skin.</div>

The Foot Spritzer* might not be the most glamorous present to give someone, but after all the running around of Christmas parties and present shopping fee, ankles and legs need some pampering too. It contain aloe vera, rosemary and peppermint essential oils. Great value too at £7.75.</div>

I recently ran out of my No7 two phase eye make up remover so have been reaching for the Eyebright Soothing Eye Lotion*. While I think it's meant to be more of a 'treatment' for eyes, I've been using it to gently remove eye make up. I have quite sensitive eyes and it doesn't sting at all and even does a pretty good job with stubborn mascara. It leaves my eyes feeling clean and soothed. It's £10.25 for 150mls.</div>

For anyone jetting off to the sun after Christmas, the Botanical Aftersun Gel* is a must have, formulated with 92% aloe vera, it soothes and rehydrates sun-exposed skin along with cucumber, lavender and Vitamin E. The 200ml tube will set you back £13.50, but a little goes a long way. </div>

This Real Techniques by Samantha Chapman (Pixiwoo) Blush Brush is my most recent brush acquisition but it's become a firm favourite in my make up routine, so I think it would make an excellent stocking stuffer. I was a little sceptical about it at first as it's pretty huge for a blush brush, but it works best instead as a powder/bronzing brush or to wash out blush if you've applied it too heavily. While I would say it's too large to apply blush, it does deposit the perfect amount of colour. It feels gorgeously soft and is such a pleasure to use.</div>

You can see some images below where I've put it next to MAC 168 and 138 brushes to give you a size reference. I actually prefer it a lot more to the 138 tapered face brush which I'd hankered after for ages but isn't as useful as I hoped it would be.</div>

You can pick up this Blush Brush from Boots in store or <a href="http://www.boots.com/en/Real-Techniques-Blush-Brush-1407_1252046/" target="_blank">online here</a> for £9.99.</div>
