Olympia Beauty Haul

I have been out hauling for treasures at Olympia Beauty! Well, I have been rather good lately and managed to hold back on my need for purchasing beauty products. However, I went to Olympia Beauty last month and it was really difficult to retain the money in my pocket. It had to go! Voila! Here’s what I got from Olympia Beauty both from personal purchase and from my press goody bag.  Note that I only bought these a few days ago, so I haven’t had chance to test everything out yet. This is simply a first impressions post and not…

The British Beauty Blogger Dream Box Giveaway

Once again uni has driven me a bit off-track, I mean waaayyy off-track when it comes to blogging. Anyways, I just finished my final year project report and all I have now is a project seminar before I can start thinking about relaxing on the beach somewhere… To help me get back on track with blogging and to celebrate Beauty from the Fjord’s first anniversary (like a month ago), I will be giving away a “Dream Box” from Latest in Beauty, put together by the British Beauty Blogger. Yes, “The Dream Box” was totally last month, but I just haven’t got…

Elemis Freshskin Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash Review

I received this Elemis Freshskin Skin Glow Exfoliating Face Wash back in July in a rather huge goody bag: #JulyLondonMeetup and I’ve also feature it in the Starting Off Project: Skincare post. Yes, I’ve basically had it for months, but surprisingly there’s still some left! So here I am trying to get a review done before it eventually ends up in the empties bin this or next month! It’s lasted me so long because I only use it once a week and I started using it in August, that something like 15 weeks, which pretty much means that a 30ml sample lasts around 20…

Starting Off: Skincare

First of all, let me introduce to you, my skin condition! My skin has gone through some major transformations throughout my life! I got acne at a young age and no matter how hard I tried to get rid of it, it stayed with me for at least 5 years. I was lucky enough to be acne free for about one year, but it started all over again in my first year at university. However, it disappeared as soon as it came when I started eating healthily and eliminated alcohol from my daily life. I still get break outs and…
