Micellar Water Review (2025 Edition): Still My Go-To Cleanser!

Way back in 2014, the beauty world went absolutely nuts for this Micellar Water, and honestly? The hype was REAL. 

It was like gold dust at the time - sold out everywhere or priced at a fiver if you were lucky. Fast forward to 2025, and you can now grab it pretty much anywhere for around £6.

And yep, I still swear by it. 

This stuff is a game-changer for lazy skincare nights (which, let’s be honest, is most nights). I used to be the person who regularly crashed out with a full face of makeup or half-heartedly wiped it off with a makeup wipe if I could be bothered. But this magical water? It’s made me actually take my makeup off before bed!

Most nights, I only need one cotton pad and a few drops of Micellar Water to melt away all the makeup and grime. If I’ve gone all-out for a night out, maybe I’ll use two pads. But that’s it. I don’t wear a ton of makeup on a daily basis, but it tackles even the heavier stuff like a pro.

No fragrance, no fuss, no irritation - just clean skin that feels refreshed and ready for bed. And since I’ve been using it, I’ve definitely noticed my skin looking a lot less blotchy in the mornings. It’s so much better than waking up with that grimy, smudged mascara look.

It might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but for me? It’s a skincare staple I’ll be repurchasing again and again.

Have you tried Micellar Water? Love it or hate it? Let me know! Hope you have a great day and keep safe :)

The Jewellery Trends to Watch in 2025

Jewellery is one of those things that never really goes out of style - it just evolves! And 2025 is shaping up to be all about personalisation, meaning, and a little bit of extra sparkle. Gone are the days of grabbing whatever is ‘on trend’; now, people are looking for pieces that actually mean something, whether it’s a custom-engraved necklace, a symbolic gemstone, or a timeless investment piece that will last a lifetime.

With social media making it easier than ever to find unique jewellery gifts, there’s no excuse for uninspired presents! Whether you’re treating yourself (because why not?) or shopping for a loved one, here are some of the biggest jewellery trends for 2025 that make perfect gifts.

Piercings: The More, the Merrier!

The piercing trend is still going strong, and 2025 is all about curated ear stacks, dainty studs, and tiny hoops. Whether it’s a second or third lobe piercing, a helix hoop, or a dainty opal belly button ring, there’s something for everyone. The best part? These are small but meaningful gifts that let the recipient express their personal style. Plus, with so many gorgeous designs available, it’s never been easier to mix and match for a unique look.

Bracelet Watches: Style Meets Function

If there’s one thing that never goes out of style, it’s a classic timepiece. But in 2025, bracelet watches are making a serious comeback. Think elegant metal straps, delicate links, and a touch of sparkle. Whether for everyday wear or a special occasion, a beautiful bracelet watch is both a stylish and practical gift. Bonus points if you get it engraved with a meaningful message!

Crystal Rings: A Little Magic on Your Finger

Crystals are more than just beautiful - they carry meaning, energy, and a sense of magic. That’s why crystal rings are set to be huge this year. Whether it’s a rose quartz ring for love, an amethyst for calm vibes, or a citrine for positivity, these rings make for thoughtful and personal gifts. They’re perfect for stacking or wearing solo, and they add an ethereal touch to any outfit.

Gold Diamond Rings: Classic & Timeless

If you’re looking for a gift that’s an instant heirloom, you can’t go wrong with a gold diamond ring. Whether it’s a delicate solitaire, a vintage-inspired band, or a bold statement piece, these rings are more than just accessories - they’re investments in timeless beauty. And the best part? They can be engraved with initials, dates, or even a personal message, making them even more special.

Layered Necklaces: Mix, Match & Personalise

Why wear one necklace when you can wear three? Layering delicate chains with charms, initials, and symbolic pendants is a huge trend right now, and it’s set to continue well into 2025. This is a great gift idea because you can personalise it to suit someone’s style, birthstone, or favourite symbols. Plus, they can mix and match pieces for a look that’s all their own.

Final Thoughts

Jewellery trends are always changing, but the focus for 2025 is clear - personalised, meaningful, and timeless pieces that hold sentimental value. Whether you’re shopping for a birthday, an anniversary, or just because, there’s a perfect piece out there for everyone. And let’s be honest, a little extra sparkle never hurt anyone!
