When I first started my blog, all the way back in December of 2013. I never had the slightest idea of what could possibly come from it. All I was doing was sharing primarily the beauty bits that I'd been loving and the shopping I'd been doing. And over those years I've had so many beauty blogging moments that I'll never forget.
I've now lost count of the absolutely incredible and somewhat unbelievable things that I've got to do. Plus all of the fantastic products and brands that I've been able to try, as a result.
So I thought that I would share six of the biggest beauty blogging moments I've had over the past six years. And six products to represent them;
SHOP THE POST
Soap & Glory The Righteous Butter
The very first brand to ever approach me and send out products for me to try were a brand that I was already a huge fan of and that was Soap & Glory. I can remember receiving that first PR parcel and feeling like it was Christmas morning. I still can't quite believe it when parcels arrive at my door, even to this day.
For me, even though I adore their makeup, skincare and body care, my holy grail Soap & Glory product has got to be The Righteous Butter, which is why I just had to grab a big tub for today's giveaway. I mean, I even wrote an ode to it and have my own prized possession of a personalised tub, which when you have a name as unusual and uncommon as mine is quite a big deal.
Benefit Roller Lash Mascara
The very first blog event that I ever went to, way back in 2015, was the launch of Benefit's latest mascara at the time; Roller Lash. Little did I know that years later and after testing many different mascaras, Roller Lash would be my absolute favourite mascara of all time. If you haven't tried it yet, I cannot recommend it highly enough and it is the only mascara that I repurchase time and time again.
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo [+]
Way back in 2014, Escentual frequently sent out French Pharmacy products for me to review and one of those reviews ended up with me being featured on a brand's website with my photograph and blog link being there for everyone to see. And that was my La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo [+] review.
It is still one of my holy grail skincare products and I can never be without a tube of it in my life.
Urban Decay Naked Reloaded Eyeshadow Palette
I've worked with a few of my favourite brands on giveaways before, where they've contacted me to share some of their incredible products with you. And I still remember the day when Urban Decay emailed me out of the blue to see if I'd like to work with them on a giveaway where someone would receive all four Naked palettes available at the time.
Who remembers that one? So I thought that I would pick up one of the latest and universally flattering Naked eyeshadows palettes; Naked Reloaded, for today's giveaway. I mean, how gorgeous are those shades?!
Bobbi Brown Luxe Shine Intense Lipstick
Over the years I've been so lucky to discover and then try quite a few products from Bobbi Brown. So I couldn't quite believe it when this year they picked me to be one of their UK amabassadors! I still pinch myself every time I get a delivery from them.
And one of those recent deliveries contained my favourite new lipstick; the Bobbi Brown Luxe Shine Intense Lipstick. They are so buttery and smooth and the shade range is also spectacular. I decided to choose the gorgeous and universally wearable shade, Bare Truth, to include in today's giveaway.
Glossier Birthday Balm Dot Com
And last but not least, what would a birthday be without birthday cake?!
I'm definitely a Glossier fan girl, having visited both the showrooms in New York and made many a purchase once they arrived in the UK. And it's one of those brands that quickly gained cult status and as a result, my several Glossier blog posts drove a lot of traffic to Ellis Tuesday.
If you haven't tried one of the Balm Dot Coms, the birthday cake flavour will always be my top recommendation.

To be in with a chance of winning this big beauty bundle worth £125, all you have to do is enter through the Rafflecopter entry form.
All 6 giveaways will end on Sunday 22nd of December. There will be one winner picked at random. The prize will be issued by me.
