Anyone who knows me, knows that I am ALL for holy grail recommendations. It’s a been a passion project of mine for many years now to find the best resources to make my life not only easier but with an added touch of luxury too!

I really dislike buying something and it not meeting my expectations which is why I carry out extensive research before I purchase anything.

Each and every item on this page excites me!!  I offer these recommendations time and time again and they do not fail to disappoint. 

If there are any recommendations which you would like that isn’t listed, or any questions about the recommendations then I am more than happy to answer any questions via email 🙂

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Make-Up Removing Solution Sensitive Skin

Bioderma Sensibio H2O Make-Up Removing Solution

I've tried several body moisturisers and always return to this one. Its easy to use with the pump and leaves skin feeling soft (not greasy) and even the next day my skin feels soft!
the details
DAVINES VOLU Shampoo

Davines -
Volu Shampoo

On my search for an SLS free shampoo - this one comes out top. It doesn't dry out your hair like many of the other SLS free shampoos, it has a very subtle fragrance and definitely adds volume. No flat hair here!
the details
MASON PEARSON Popular Mixed Bristle BN1 Hair Brush

Mason Pearson - Popular Mixed Bristle BN1 Hair Brush

These hairbrushes have been around for over 130 years because there is nothing quite like them. They are gentle but leave your hair feeling silky soft. Trust me - you wont use any other hairbrush ever again!

Rapid Dry Lisse Turban in Chevron

I hate drying my hair it takes forever. With this turban, it takes me half the time to dry my hair! It's easy to put on straight out of the shower, it stays on and somehow my hair is even softer when I use this!

Backpacks have definitely make a comeback, but who said they need to be ugly? MZ Wallace backpacks are elegant, stylish - yet tick the box for carrying all of your essentials. They are also fantastic quality and will last you a long time. You get what you pay for.

Apple - Airpods with charging case

Apple - Airpods with wireless charging case

Yes, they do stay in your ears! No more tangled wires! I love that I can freely do my housework without carrying my phone with me and easily tap them on and off. Wireless earphones are the way forward.
the details

I never leave anywhere without my water bottle. As I drink warm water (its better for digestion), this bottle keeps my water at the perfect temperature all day. I get compliments on it all the time!

Wellness Tools

LOREM IPSUM DOLAR SIT AMET

NEOM Organics - Scented Happiness Candle

NEOM Organics - Scented Happiness Candle

After smelling all the NEOM candles, this is by far the best one! It is quite strong but not the nauseating type of strong, moreso the 'mmm your house smells lovely' aroma.I definitely feel happy when I can smell this candle. It also contains non toxic wax to protect you from those nasties you can find in cheap candles.
the details
Lumie Vitamin L - Slim Light Box for Effective SAD Light Therapy

Lumie -
Slim Light Box for Effective SAD Light Therapy

I'm no good in the winter, I want to hibernate and take naps all day. I feel sluggish and it can be difficult to get going. This SAD lamp (seasonal affective disorder - its a real thing!) is brilliant to improve mood, energy and focus. I wouldn't be without it now.
the details
Fitbit - Versa 2 Health & Fitness Smartwatch with Voice Control, Sleep Score & Music, One Size, Petal/Copper Rose

Fitbit -
Versa 2 Health & Fitness Smartwatch

I love my FITBIT. I mainly use it to ensure I get my 10k steps in as many days as possible but it also has other functions such as monitoring sleep, heart rate, calories etc! I think it looks stylish too.
the details
Vitamix- A3500i Ascent Series Blender, Silver

Vitamix- A3500i Ascent Series Blender

It took me forever to invest in a vitamix and I am so thankful I did! I use it everyday - soups, smoothies, banana ice cream, waffle mix, the possibilities with this blender are endless! It has definitely helped me to become more healthy. Every kitchen needs one of these!

Lululemon - Align HR Pant 25

Lululemon - Align HR Pant 25"

These are by far the best leggings you will ever get your hands on! Trust me, I live in them! They are especially great if you are prone to bloating because they are so soft and don't constrict you at all.

monbento – MB Original Litchi Bento Box

Monbento - MB Original Litchi Bento Box

Radiant Creamy Concealer

Dark circles? This is the best concealer you will find for them. It is one of Nars's best selling products for a reason!
the details
YuYu - long hot water bottle

YuYu Long Hot Water Bottle

I am addicted to my hot water bottle as I am always cold, so I decided to spend a little more on one that feels cosy but also is easy to snuggle around in the cold winters. Particularly good for menstrual cramps too as you can tie it around your waist! One of the best things I have ever bought.
the details
Desmond and Dempsey - LONG PYJAMA SET Soleia Leopard Print

Desmond and Dempsey - Soleia Long Pyjama Set

I finally understand why I should spend more money on my pyjamas - seeing as I spend a lot of time in them! These are WOW! Not only do I feel super luxurious in them, they are cool enough for the summer and warm enough for the winter. Everyone needs a pair of luxury pyjamas in their life.
the details

Sisley -
Le Phyto Rouge Lipstick, 40 Rouge Monaco

I got this as part of a goody bag when attending one of Red Magazines parties and it is by far the best red lipstick that I have ever used. Its creamy, but stays put and its that perfect orange/red hue that instantly makes your face look elegant!
the details
A sun-kissed radiance: Dr. Hauschka Bronzing Powder

Dr. Hauschka - Bronzing Powder

I've tried many bronzing powders but was looking for one that has better ingredients and isnt so dark/harsh. This is the perfect bronzing powder - better suited to paler skin types I would say but even looks great on my darker skin. There is no glitter in this , it instantly brightens up your whole face.
