Although it was a short month, February was a good ‘un for beauty! Nearly all of the products are new bits I’ve gotten in the past few weeks, with one oldie and a piece of jewellery thrown in. Here’s to March and hoping every month features that many nice products!…

If only every month was as short as February, am I right?! It seems that payday was only last week – but I’m not complaining! Although I’m supposed to be saving for a holiday, I couldn’t help but add a few things to my payday wish list this month. As…
