Artbox Raid

I ended up finding the Artbox website and wow, there was some very nice things on there. Due to it being payday I made an order for some things.

Artbox order
You can see I did order quite a bit, this lot should last me a while (the operative word being should)


Washi tape (thought these were quite sweet)


Sticky notes (I thought the bear was good and the mini ones I can use for tv shows that I watch)


The 2 pencils were bought because of the design (I love London, and it had a Union Jack, and want to go to Paris)



Stickers, they had some great stickers, thought these would come in handy in brightening up my Filofax
 
Very chuffed with my order and will be ordering from Artbox again (have noticed some Rilakkuma notebooks  and tape that I might have to order next month)
 
Some of the stickers you will see in the coming weeks on the 'My Week' posts (Week 13 due tomorrow).
 
Thanks for tuning in.

Obsessions, Part 1: Lip Balm

As you can gather I love stationery, but another of my biggest vices (of which I have many) is lip balm. I have really dry lips and living in the North East of England the weather doesn't exactly help.

Lip Balm collection
 I've never really counted them, but I know I love to be able to have the choice of which one I want to use.

All in it's glory
 As you can see I have so many to choose from, but I love them all.

My top 5 at the moment are:


Cranberry Joy Lip Balm
Cranberry Joy Lip Balm - The Body Shop

I love this lip balm, it has such a nice smell and reminds me of Christmas still (it was part of their Christmas collection), it also doesn't make your lips go claggy.









Raspberry Lemonade Blast - Blistex
Raspberry Lemonade Blast - Blistex

This is a very good lip balm and smells fantastic, a good summery lip balm that helps to chase away the winter blues (and at the moment with the weather the spring blues).







Raspberry Rose Lip Butter - Nivea
Raspberry Rose Lip Butter - Nivea

Love the smell I could smell this all day, only problem is its a tin lip balm and if I'm on the go then it is a bit of a faff to put it on.










Lime Twist - Carmex
Lime Twist - Carmex

This is a really good summery lip balm, with the all to familiar carmex tingle.










M&M's Lip Smacker

M&M's Lip Smacker

What can I say it's chocolate, I got this from M&M's world on my last trip to London, and keep it in my coat pocket so if I need a lip balm quickly it's already there in my coat pocket.








There you a somewhat quick glance into my lip balms (which I think I need to have on rotation so they all get used)

Thanks for tuning in
