USA Cake Confessions

So if you've read any of my previous blog posts, you'll be fully aware that I recently went away to the sunshine state of Florida in the USA.

To say I had a fabulous time would be an understatement, I got more than acquainted with the Sephora stores (but that's for another post!) And of course ate my way around all the incredibly decadent and indulgent cakes and sweet treats that Orlando had to offer.


As a self-confessed cake, cookie and dessert lover - I felt it was my duty to try as many of these indulgences as possible to create not only a food memory I can revisit time and time again, but also to help me recreate some of the delights I sampled in the hope of bringing home a little slice of USA with me.

Skincare Spotlight : Kiehl's Rare Earth Deep Pore Clensing Masque

Despite being in a post-flight, jet-lagged state - I literally couldn't wait to write this review of the Kiehl's Rare Earth Deep Pore Clensing Masque (phew, bit of a mouthful eh?) So with about a gallon of water and 300g Milka bar by my side, I'm beating the dreaded US-jet lag with a skincare spotlight of my latest beauty discovery!

Kiehls Sample Review

I really hope I'm not the only one in the world that goes cer-azy over sample sachets or sample-sized products, it's like a little party in an unsuspecting minimalist mask (or masque - geddit?) So you can imagine my excitement when my brother, Matthew returns home from New York loaded with the latest must-have products from Kiehls in handy, delightfully sized packages.

Now, I'm a fully-paid member of the Kiehls appreciation society (this isn't really a thing, but if it was, I'd be all over it), their SPF moisturiser is my absolute favourite and their eye treatments really do work miracles - so being able to give these samples a test drive was a task I was more than happy to complete over the Easter weekend.
