Hello!

Hi everyone!

I'm Rachel and this is my blog.

It's a place to enjoy the wonder that is good value. A place to learn tips about getting the best value for your money. A place to learn how to get stuff for free.

For years now, I've loved makeup and beauty products. They're my weakness. When it comes to spending money, I'm always on the hunt for a good bargain. Except when it comes to beauty. Somehow I can always convince myself to go for the expensive shampoo or the fancy face scrub. Maybe I'm giving into advertising, maybe it's the sciency words on the packaging or maybe it's just the chance to use something everyday that'll make me feel a little special.

This blog is my opinion on the high-street products I buy. I don't know about you, but I never buy without looking for a review first. So here are the reviews. I'll include all of the comments I'd want to read, completely honest and in no way sponsored. If something's awful, I'll say it is! I'll say where I got a product from, how much it cost and it's retail price too, so you can judge if it's worth the money.

Before I begin the reviews though, a bit about me. I'm 20, I live in the north of England and I'm a Biomedical Sciences student. I'm a bookworm, I love all things medical and I'd rather spend a Friday night with a cup of tea, some good friends and a chick-flick than going out drinking. I'm a bit of a nerd and a bit of a perfectionist. I love shopping, fashion, and girly days. I guess I'm just a normal 20 year old!

I've never blogged before so any hints, tips, ideas would be most welcome!


Speak to you soon!
