Hiatus!

Hey everyone, Recently, you may have noticed that I haven’t been posting a lot. This is because I have been very busy and can’t seem to find any spare time. I like to spend time planning posts, so that they are as informative as they can be. I just don’t want to start rushing them because my heart is not in it. So, I am going to have a little break from the blogging world and hopefully when I come back, there will be a flow of posts. I am also hoping to re-design Beccafun and make the design more Becca. I would love a professional to design me something, but for now it will be homemade. I can’t say for sure when I will be back, but I will be sure to let you know. Bye for now. ♥ ♥ ♥

Perfume Power! - Avon 'Femme'

I recently started looking at the Avon catalogues again and I saw this perfume had a test circle. Whenever I see the test circles, I just have to rub them! I tested this perfume and I instantly wanted it, plus it was on offer with the matching body spray and lotion. The bottle is clear glass and is inspired by diamonds. The cap is clear plastic and is a squared diamond shape. It has a regular perfume spritzer, which is silver to blend in with the clear cut look. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Pink Grapefruit, Plum & Violet Middle Notes: Jasmine, Wild Orchid & Magnolia Base Notes: Amber, Peach, Wood & Musk I really like the bottle because it is beautifully simple and you can see how much liquid you have left. The cap is not very secure though because it just sits on top of the spritzer, which means it can easy fall off in your bag. The spritzer is very easy to use and it distributes the perfume evenly in a concentrated mist. The scent I would say...

Graze - Box #6

Welcome to my second Graze delivery of the year. I was quite excited when I first opened it, even though I have tried one of the treats before. A closer look at my treats. Cracking Black Pepper Cashews “Black pepper cashews, roasted cashews & redskin peanuts” I have had cashews before and they are not my favourite, but the black pepper completely changes them and they are actually quite nice and the flavour is not too overpowering. I am not keen on the roasted cashews because they don’t really taste of anything and the bit of flavour they do have is very dry. Lastly, the peanuts are kind of strange. They kind of taste soily and dry, therefore I don’t like these. My Thai “Sweet chilli sauce with baked soy bites” This was my first experience of this one and you can really smell the soy on the bites and they have a funny texture, but are really yummy. I didn’t try the chilli sauce because I didn’t like the scent and I am not big on sauces anyway. ...

Haul: Higher End to Drugstore #2

I have done a bit more shopping lately and thought I would share with you what I got. I will start off with the items I bought online. From LookFantastic I got the Benefit The Bronze of Champions Set , which includes Hoola Bronzer , Thanks A Latte Eyeshadow , Hoola Lipgloss , Bikini-Tini Cream Eyeshadow , Watt’s Up! Cream Highlighter and They’re Real! Mascara . I really wanted this to try more Benefit products, plus the packaging is brilliant! From BeautyBay I really wanted the CARGO Vintage Escape Palette , but I missed out on it, so I got the CARGO Suited To A Tea Palette instead. This includes twelve cream eyeshadows, with names inspired by a tea party. Lastly from the internet, I got a bigger size of Britney Spears Circus Fantasy Perfume from AllBeauty . I’ve not even started to get through my smaller size, but I love it so much that I had to get a bigger size, just in case it has gone when I’m ready for another bottle. The last five items were ordered from an Avo...

Graze - Box #5

As you can tell, I have decided to re-subscribe to Graze. I recently noticed that they have added tons more snacks to the menu, so I thought I would give it another go. A closer look at my treats. Herby Bread Basket “Basil baguettes, garlic crostini and oregano rice crackers” The baguettes were lovely and tasted like a pizza base. The crostini was delicious too. It was just like having crusty bread. You got the slight hint of garlic and they were slightly salty. The rice crackers were so yummy and quite sweet. Bonnie Wee Oatbakes “Wholegrain oatbakes with caramelised onion marmalade” The oatbakes smell and taste like regular oat crackers, but you get that little kick of chive. They are really light and yummy tasting. The marmalade smells so strong of onion and I couldn’t bring myself to try it, as I don’t like marmalade and I’m not too keen on onion flavoured products. Healthy Popping Corn ‘Lightly Salted’ The popcorn was quite nice and not too ...
