So a few days ago I decided to make some Harry Potter themed cupcakes and ended up with these snow scene cupcakes.   I simply made some quick and easy vanilla cupcakes with buttercream icing using this recipe. I then iced the cupcakes with a simple nozzle and started to decorate. I made the chocolate decorations by printing out some pictures of the … Continue reading Harry Potter Snow Scene Cupcakes

Look Fantastic Beauty Box – May 2019

autumnleavesandaspringbreeze

Recently, I discovered Look Fantastic which is an online beauty shop. I have never purchased a monthly beauty box so I thought this was a good opportunity to treat myself. You can buy 12 month,  6 month, 3 month and 1 month subscriptions but since I was trying it out for the first time I got one month and it is only £15 for 6 products and an Elle magazine. The May edition is based on Urban beauty and all the products inside have a price of over £130 (including a £89 product from Avant), which is incredible as it … Continue reading Look Fantastic Beauty Box – May 2019

Eating out in Glasgow

autumnleavesandaspringbreeze

Back in April, I went out to Glasgow for the day and in this post I am going to talk about where I ate out and what I ate! So, we arrived around lunch time so we went to Embargo for lunch. For my main course, I had a DELICOUS burger on coconut rice with a tropical sauce ( I can’t remember what it was called but it was the bottom of the burger menu if you want to get it). I am not joking. It was amazing. GO there and get some. THE BEST BURGER (even thought there was … Continue reading Eating out in Glasgow

Peachy Bath Bomb Review (LUSH)

autumnleavesandaspringbreeze

Hello everybody! How was your weekend? So every once in a while I love to have a bath just to relax, read a book, maybe do a big body scrub and maybe a face mask. Last night I decided to use the Peachy Bath bomb which is a lovely bath bomb from Lush. It costs £3.95, which is fairly decent price for Lush. It is a gorgeous pink colour and when you drop it in the Bath it looks like a beautiful sunrise with the pink and orange! It smells like a subtle citrus smell, I don’t really know how … Continue reading Peachy Bath Bomb Review (LUSH)
