Hi guys,

Today I am sharing some sparkler photos. You will probably be able to guess where I got my inspiration for this post from, but this is something I have always wanted to do, I’ve just never known how. In her post Zoe left the camera settings you needed – which is why I have been able to do it (you can find her post HERE if you want to try it). It took many attempts to get these looking right, but I am rather proud of the results. Hope you enjoy :)

Hi guys,

Today I have my skincare routine for you. I have mentioned doing this post before but my routine kept changing. As I now have a finalised routine, I thought I would finally write it.

The first product I use depends on how much makeup I am wearing that day. If I am just wearing mascara I will use the Garnier Micellar Water, but if I am wearing eye shadow etc. I will use the Clinique Take The Day Off Makeup Remover. I find that both of these remove my makeup so easily and leave my skin feeling really clean.

Then to cleanse and tone I use the Clarin’s Cleansing Milk and Toning Lotion. I have mentioned these in my August Favourites post but I find that these two products really suit my skin and they always leave my skin-feeling super clean and lovely. I am very lucky that my Mum didn’t like using them!

I then use the No 7 Beautiful Skin Rapid Spot Rescue on any blemishes I have. This claims to visibly reduce spot size in two hours, and while I’m not sure it quite does that, it does work rather well.

If I am having a pamper evening, I will use the No 7 Beautiful Skin Purifying Skin Mask. I talked about this product in my Autumn Essentials post. I love how it heats up as it really feels like it’s working and makes it really relaxing. This is a staple product if my skin has been breaking out (like now…).

                                                                                           

Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed this post :)

Hello everyone,

As you can probably guess from the title, today is a very special day…

FRECKLES AND THOUGHTS IS ONE!

That's your slice of cake today ;)

I honestly can’t believe that I’ve had this blog for a whole year – the time has flown by!

I just wanted to use this post as an opportunity to say thank you to all of you who read my posts, leave me lovely comments and follow me on social media. Without you I probably wouldn’t still be writing these posts, and I really do enjoy it. I started this blog as DaisySmiler, and it is turning one as Freckles and Thoughts.

Thank you ever so much.

Lucy xx
