The Soap & Glory Cleansers.

Beauty
I have a lot of beauty products that I just don’t use. It’s borderline hoarding really. So I’m on a mission to stop buying and start using up what’s already sitting in my cupboards. So, I’ve decided to begin with my Soap & Glory cleansers. I know my blog has been skincare, skincare and more skincare, but my skin has really improved lately and I want to share what’s actually working for me. I promise all things makeup will be back soon. I’ve been trying to use up both of these for the past four months and I can...

Indian Healing Clay Mask – My New Favourite Face Mask.

Beauty
Okay, so with that title, there’s a little bit of pressure here and a whole lot of hype from yours truly. Now, I’m one for honesty, and the Aztec Secret Indian Healing Clay mask really is that good. Purchasing any beauty product, let alone a face mask, from Amazon can always be a little risky. Either it’s something to rave about, or it’s something you wish you hadn’t wasted your hard-earned pennies on. Thankfully this face mask falls into the former, and has my big stamp of approval. Let me tell you why. This stuff lasts for ages. I...

Why Living At Home For University Doesn’t Mean You’re Not Doing University “Right”.

life
It’s coming up to that time of year where everyone is going back to university, or it’s that time of year where you have to decide if university is something you actually want to do, and with that decision comes another one about moving out of the home you’ve known for years, so I thought I’d put my two cents into the debate on whether living at home for uni detracts from that “university experience” that everyone always goes on about. After reading a post from Forever September (her blog is amazing by the way) the other day about...

The Best Hairbrush Ever? Meet the Wet Brush.

Beauty
One of my first posts back after the longest blogging break and I’m talking about a hair brush? I know, I know, but trust me this one is a good’un and your girl just wants to dip her toe into the water that is beauty blogging. I don’t know if you remember, but the Anna and Lily edit box from Cult Beauty first introduced me to this brush. They pretty much said it was the best brush ever, and you have to take these ladies seriously. They know their stuff after all. Who was I to argue with them?...

For Blemish Prone Skin: The Ordinary Skincare.

Beauty
I told you that a review solely based on The Ordinary was coming. You know for a cheap and cheerful skincare brand, it really has helped my skin be overall clearer. Whilst I still pick at my blemishes, mainly because I can’t help myself, they’re nowhere near as unmanageable as they used to be. Where to begin? Probably with the first product I use in my morning and evening skincare routine. The Niacinamide 10% and Zinc 1% solution. This stuff is as valuable to me as gold dust. If I had any need for gold dust that is. It’s...

A Beauty Bay Haul.

Beauty
The only right way to get yourself into the world of beauty blogging is with a good haul, right? Would you believe I didn’t use any of these products, for about two weeks, just so I could get a photo first? I’m still a beauty blogger, through and through. Let’s just get straight into the haul. I fancied treating myself on a small scale, so I did. The Ordinary is a brand I’ve wanted to try forever, and I’ve finally gotten round to doing so. I wasn’t expecting to love this products as much as I did, so I’ll...

Why I Took A Break From Blogging.

life
I’ve sat at my laptop at least ten times these past 6 months figuring out what I wanted to write for this post. Each time, when I’ve read my words back, they don’t feel right and I delete everything just to restart. I feel so out of touch with the blogging community, and I guess in essence, I just hope there’s still room for me and my blog. So where have I been? That’s the burning question, right? It’s been two years and you’ve not heard a peep from me. The short story is I left a toxic relationship...

A Teeny Lush Haul.

Beauty
Lush is the perfect shop to treat myself with now and then. In a place with so much choice and nice smelling things, I’m pretty proud of how little I purchased. Fizzbanger Bath Bomb – I mainly picked this one up because Jordan said it smelt nice, and it was also the first bath bomb he’d given that label to. According to Lush, it’s a citrussy apple scent. It’s described as the catherine wheel of bath bombs so I’m excited to try this as I never have before, and I’m a sucker for a good colour. The Kiss Lip...

Vichy Double Glow Peel Mask.

Beauty
One thing I’m quite partial to is a facemask. To me it says “sit down and relax for a bit” and let’s be honest, who isn’t going to be okay with that? I mean I certainly am. The Vichy Double Glow Peel mask is described as a double action face mask, hence the name. It contains volcanic rock, to exfoliate and remove impurities, AHA, or alpha-hydroxy acids, which help to exfoliate and remove unsightly dead skin cells, Vitamin CG+ Mannose, something I have never heard of before but apparently it helps to hydrate, brighten and restore the skin, and...

March To Do List.

life
March is finally here which means Spring is definitely on it’s way. To me, it always feels a bit like the world is waking up again, especially when you see daffodils sprouting up here, there and everywhere. Anyway, on to my to do list for the month. – Continue saving up for a Macbook. So dreamy, yet so pricey. – Refresh my knowledge on anatomy and physiology – Clean out my muji drawers. Anyone else’s covered in foundation smudgey fingerprints? – Plan my week out, there is no better feeling that crossing out everything you need to do for...
