"It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a Spanish phrase book must be in want of a holiday”

Well, not necessarily! Some people don’t want a holiday, they want a life changing experience. Just over thirty years ago as the miners went on strike and The Smiths released their first album, Andy left a trouble torn Thatcherite Britain and boarded a flight for Malaga. Clutching a Spanish phrase book he dreamed of adventure.

Thirty years on and Andy returns to the Spain of his youth, accompanied by his wife, Tania, and his two sons, Will and Tom. He still carries a phrase book but he doesn't want a life changing experience, he wants a holiday. Travel in time and space; visit Spain in two different time periods and in very different circumstances.

Travel to Malaga, Granada, Seville, Córdoba and various other Andalusian towns and cities and then head north to the Basque Country Walk in the shadow of Lorca, Durruti and La Pasionaria, as the author tries to discover the answers to some eternal questions - Is there such a thing as a life changing experience? Does the past shape the future or does the future shape the past?

Love it.
Color: 03 Glistening Bronze
I got the darkest one and it’s really nice even though I am so pale skinned. It will be beautiful shimmer for summer.. the bottle looks bigger than it is but it’s still a great product. I don’t know if the sunscreen part is legit but I haven’t tried. I just got it for the glitter.

A fresh dewy glow.
Color: 01 Rose Gold
My First time purchase and am clearly lovin it. Glitter creates a nature sheen and a dewy, moist appearance. Color I chose blends perfectly with my light base.

Nice Glow Just Sticky
Color: 03 Glistening Bronze
I was really excited to try this body glow oil, especially since it has SPF 45, getting sun protection and a bronzed shimmer all in one sounded perfect. The color is beautiful and gives a nice glow without looking too glittery, which I appreciate. However, it does feel a bit sticky right after application. I ended up lightly dusting some setting powder over it, which helped a lot to take down the tackiness and make it feel more comfortable throughout the day. Just a heads-up: you don’t need a lot of product, start with a small amount and build up if needed. It absorbs fairly quickly but still leaves that dewy finish, so it might not be ideal if you’re not into that slightly glossy feel. Overall, though, I really like the effect, especially for photos or a night out. Just takes a little trial and error to get it to work how you want!
