You Beauty Calendar Part Four - Some Eyelash Curlers, A Shampoo and A Fragrant Water

Hi There

Thank you for stopping by!


It's been a busy week for me, I've been writing lots of blog posts for you, so many in fact that I might need to do more than one a week!

This week my review is for another 3 products from the YouBeauty advent calendar.


Eyeko Eyelash Curlers



It's been a long time since I have invested in a pair of new eyelash curlers, so when I opened the door on the advent calendar to this, I was made up! Especially when I realised they retail at around £12.

Food Glorious Food! - Chicken Jambalaya a family favourite

Hi There!

How are you? This week I've decide to do a food post, I should've been doing another YouBeauty calendar review, however this week it was for a tanning product, which I can't stand using, a hand cream that I wasn't impressed with and a face cream that I'm allergic to, so I didn't feel it would be a good read if I wrote about them honestly!

Hi There!

But that's a different story - onto the review now. This week its days 7, 8 & 9 from the You Beauty calendar.

You Beauty Calendar Part Two - A Body Lotion, A Nail Varnish and A Mask

Hi There!
Thank you for stopping by!

How nice has the weather been this weekend? A lovely spring day, gets me excited for Summer.


This week I have written a review from when I road tested days 4, 5 & 6 from the You Beauty calendar. 


Caudalie Nourishing Body Lotion


First up is this body lotion. The official write up on this product from the Caudalie Paris website states that this product "immediately moisturizes your skin with a long-lasting effect so that it regains its softness and elasticity" I can vouch that it definitely moisturises straight away, the consistency is nice, not a thick cream and not a runny lotion, a perfect balance of the two.

You Beauty Calendar Part One - A Cleanser, A Primer and A Body Wash

Hi There!
Thank you for stopping by!

How are you? Are you happy that the dark Winter mornings have now almost left us? I've been super busy trying out lots of lovely things so this post is a little late, but I like to fully road test products before I review them! This review is about the You Beauty advent calendar, please carry on reading to hear why I chose it and what I thought about it.

Don't you feel that there is too much chocolate around during the festive period? Hmm - I must admit, I never thought I would hear myself saying this, however it was exactly how I was feeling last year, so I went on the search for an alternative to the standard chocolate advent calendar.

In the end I settled on the YouBeauty calendar, which I purchased from their website. At £49.95, it was slightly more than the 3 for a fiver chocolate advents calendars you can get in the supermarkets, however what you get in them more than makes up for the price tag. In fact the website claimed that I had just saved over £190 as the calendars contents were worth a staggering £240.
