New Years Eve.

My ultimate dream job one day is to run the New Years Eve ball drop in Times Square, New York City.

So this year as I had already been to New York City in 2014, myself and my family packed ourselves down to London Town to watch the fireworks from the Embankment.

We spent three days in London, and went to the fireworks, New Years Day parade and went into the Winter Wonderland in Hyde Park where we wondered into the Magical Ice Kingdom.

Hope you are all having an amazing 2015 so far. 

Until next time,

Freeman facial clay mask avocado and oatmeal review.



So as many of you will know I went to New York a few months back. The problem for me when I travel is that my skin becomes gross and disgusting. So I went down to our local CVS to pick up some face masks. I had never heard of this brand before, so I was a bit hesitant with how good it would be and honestly I only really bought because they were on offer. (I know. I have a problem.)


For me I get quite oily skin so I need a face mask that can keep my skin that smooths and evens my skin out. Which is exactly what this product does for me. I have also found that the mask really relaxes me and makes me feel calm after a long day. Also it smells flippin' amazing.


I can tend to apply this about once or twice a week, but it can really depend on how my skin is feeling and if I feel like a pampering session. It is so easy to apply and then to remove after the 5-10 minutes of it being on my face.

I would highly recommend this to anybody as it such an affordable thing for the everyday person to have. I couldn't find a link for it within the UK but if you live in the USA or Canada you can find it here at CVS where you can find this one and all the others that are available.


I also have the 'Anti-Stress Mask Deep Sea Minerals' which I am super excited to try after loving this one so much!

Until next time

The city of my dreams.

“Follow your dreams. I am not saying it’s going to be easy, but I am saying it’s going to be worth it.'' – Moffat Machingura

So if you have been reading my blog for a while now you would know that last month I was in New York City, which is a city that I have dreamed of going to ever since I was a little girl. I have always been a fan of following your dreams and not letting anybody get in the way of it. So here are some of my favourite pictures from the trip.

                             Statue of Liberty

                            Times Square

                               Brooklyn Bridge

                                     View from the Top of the Rock

                                   Times Square

                                       Times Square with some yellow taxi's

(I did also meet postman pat whilst I was at the airport but you can check that out on my instagram!!)

Hope you enjoyed an insight into my holiday, if you would like me to do a haul with some of the things that I bought whilst I was away then let me know!

Until next time
