#57 Awful Blogger Once Again And Life Update.

WOAH! Since when did life start flying by so quickly?! These Easter holidays have flown by and I have been majorly busy that I haven't had time to blog. But don't fear because that means I have lots of blog posts and ideas coming your way! I've also been sooo terrible that I still haven't posted Gemma-Louise her giveaway prize! So Gemma-Louise if you're reading this I haven't forgotten about you and sending off your prize is on my to-do list for this week!
As I haven't posted in a while I thought I'd do a little update on what is going on in Hannah world. If you don't like reading these sorts of posts and prefer others please say because I don't want to bore my readers as I was thinking of making this a regular post and I won't in anyway be offended! Promise! I love having feedback in any shape or form from my readers!
Recently I joined up to WeHeartIt, and for those of you who don't know it is just a website with collections of pictures on there are literally thousands and thousands being uploaded constantly and in all different categories. If you are a One Direction fan I strongly recommend you check out the pictures! This website is where most of the pictures in this post have come from!
During me last week off of the Easter Holidays I took a trip up to Westfields and had my first ever proper MAC purchase which is so exciting, so keep your eyes peeled for the post!
I have also had a lovely week off with my boyfriend as we are very loved up at the moment after finally taking the plunge to go official after months of seeing each other with out tricky situation (he's my ex's bestfriend.) I know it's all proper mushy and things but he is honestly the most amazing boyfriend I have ever had! He even took me out to dinner during the week and wouldn't let me pay a penny which I know most of you are thinking "Of course! That's that way it should be!" But I've clearly had mug written on me as I've literally paid for everything in all my previous relationship. He just really spoils me and treats me like a princess. We don't even go out constantly and do have nights in, but even the nights in are so different to past relationships and everyone has said how they've noticed me to be a different kind of happy to previous relationships. This has to be a sign of even better things to come!
He even brought these beautiful flowers for my Mum for no reason - he's definitely a keeper. I also think he was forgetting my bunch of flowers! ;)
I'm so sorry that this post is so long! I could probably even find more to chat to all of you about if you haven't escaped from my page for fear of talking you to death and have made it to the end. Let me know what you've all been up to in the last couple of weeks!

#56 Happy Easter - Giveaway Winner.

Happy Easter to all you lovely bloggers out there! Personally I don't celebrate Easter in the way which others might do for me its and excuse to get the family together for a good meal and eat lots of chocolate eggs! But which ever way you celebrate Easter I hope you all have a good day - and night! For those of you who are party animals like me and taking full advantage of all the themed nights and cheap bank holiday prices at the clubs on a Sunday night!!
I recently had a small giveaway which ended yesterday and I took it upon myself to go and smell each of the peoples entries as the giveaway was about what each persons favourite scent was. So yesterday I was running around all the places which sold perfumes in town trying to test each entry, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised and enjoyed each of them and I may even consider purchasing some for new fragrances to wear.
The winner of my giveaway is Gemma-Louise from Fashion Is Beauty Beauty Is Fashion 
I chose Gemma-Louise as my winner as I loved her favourite scent at the moment which is Victor and Rolf's Flowerbomb which reminded her of her summer holiday last year, and I have to say it does have a summer feeling about it! So well done Gemma-Louise!!


I hope you all enjoy the rest of your Easter and bank holiday!

#55 Body Shop Body Butters

Recently I have been a little bit obsessed with The Body Shop ever since I had to pop in and buy my Stepmum a birthday present and I loved all the wonderful products they had to offer. They do a wide range of products in a variety of different fragrances and the bonus part is that the majority of it is all reasonably well priced! So since becoming obsessed I signed up to the Body Shop newsletter via email and was just thrilled when they emailed me with a 40% off voucher code which also included 40% off sale items too! Unfortunately the voucher has expired but I do know that their body butters are still half price online which is what I purchased!
Now personally I think that Body Shop are known for their fabulous range of Body Butters and these were the ones which I picked as everyone else had already beaten me to the others which were sold out such as the Mango Body Butter!
The LOVE ETC brand in the Body Shop wasn't something familiar to me so I thought that there would be no harm in trying it especially when they were only £5 each online and I was then getting a further 40% off. When it arrived I wasn't disappointed at the smell of the product which is always a gamble when you don't know it. The best way that I can describe it which is probably really rubbish is that it's a very natural fresh smell. I also investigated more into the LOVE ETC brand and found that the Body Shop created it in order to 'spread the love' and by this they mean that the ingredients which they buy in order to make the product, the farmers who grow the ingredients in Ecuador are given a fair price and this has already had a positive effect with 150 families in Ecuador benefiting positively from the scheme. The ingredients are also completely natural and are not tested on animals which in a win for the consumers!

 I then purchased the Cocoa Butter and Shea Body Butters. These two are my most favourite butters which the Body Shop produce, and lets be honest who really can resist rubbing a butter into your skin which smells ever so slightly like the most delicious chocolate bar you have ever eaten?! And again the Shea Body Butter smells slightly similar to the Cocoa Body Butter except it's a lot lighter and fresher, and is my favourite for every day to day use.
As you can see the Body Butters aren't like your average moisturisers in a tub which you might use. They are very hard until you get a bit further down into the pots. I've also found that a little really does go along way with the Butters where as with most moisturisers I find that I have to put quite a far amount on for it to really do anything, and then I find that I need to apply a normal moisturiser everyday to keep up with the hydration of my skin. Whereas, with a Body Butter I use them every other day and the fantastic smell will last for the majority of the day from when I applied it, so I find that there's also never a need to apply a perfume making it a quick and simple every day routine.
The Body Shop 50% off sale finishes today, so if you're persuaded go and grab your favourite body butters for an amazing £5!
Enjoy the rest of your day and don't forget to enter my Next Just Pink Desire giveaway
