The Lipstick Edit

The Lipstick Edit  MAC Channel Reviews Velvet Teddy Diva Girl About Town
Thanks, to my lovely nan at the end of last year I had £50 to spend at Debenhams. Something I would never normally have. So before anyone jumps up and down- all the lipsticks featured in this post were a present/ treat and by no means do I think that you can't get an affordable and just as good lipstick from the drugstore! So now we have got that cleared up, we can just sit and cry at the fact that four lipsticks I own come to £72 pounds?!! But hey, I thought I would give you guys a quick review anyway! Enjoy!

Photo Diary | Lost In The Archives

flowers photography aperture blury background

I absolutely love sharing with you photos I have taken! Photography is one of my biggest hobbies! Not only do I love taking photos for my blog and sharing them on my posts but I love taking random snaps on outings! I shared a couple of photo diaries last year, two of my most popular being my Brighton and Autumn ones however sometimes life gets too busy and I just don't have time to share them with you! Between summer and late autumn last year, I took a lot of photos but not all were showcased on my blog! To rectify this, I thought I would share with you a selection of 'never seen before photos' ( which makes me sound like I am writing an article about some chavvy celeb haha) with you today! These photos are taken from last summer, autumn walks and fireworks night! I hope
 you enjoy!

#SpeakUp | Living With Acne And How To Deal with it

#SpeakUp Living With Acne And How To Deal with it spots cream advice teenagers
Acne, Spots, Zits whatever you care to call them, they are a universal problem that affects one hell of a lot of young people. For some, it isn't really that much of an issue for others it follows them right through their early adulthood and maybe even into the rest of their life's! For some, they are pretty manageable, easy to treat and don't really cause that much harm in contrary to some which manifest themselves as angry, painful or large spots, which cause misery and disheartenment. I have suffered from acne from the age of about eleven, on and off now for seven years! That's a very long time indeed! It is definitely a topic that is close to my heart but something that I also think is extremely prominent in lots of other young people's lives which is not spoken up about enough! I, therefore, was sure I wanted it to be the first topic of my #SpeakUp series!

Inexpensive Ways You Can Treat Yourself


I think it is really easy to get carried away with life sometimes. I think we are all very guilty of forgetting to take time out for ourselves, neglecting me time and just going full blown ahead, at 200 miles per hour which often leaves us feeling so rundown. Despite popular assumptions, you don't need to spend a lot of money on treating yourself. You don't need to fork out on expensive brands and treatments to help you feel relaxed. Although, it is down to your own personal choice I believe that there are some great brands and products out there that can help you get in the right mood. As well as products there is also some really important habits that I recommend you get in the routine of doing regularly to ensure that stress levels don't escalate. Today I thought I would share with you some tips on how you can take some time out for yourself without having to break the piggy bank! Enjoy!

The new year, the time when we feel obliged to make new years resolutions that we know downright we won't keep. For some reason, which still manages to escape me, people have a sudden urge in the first week of January to make all these promises that they know they won't be able to keep. They kid themselves they are going to lose weight, read more books, go to the gym, take up a new hobby, become a leprechaun, I don't know okay, the list is endless.

2015 Beauty Favourites

2015 Beauty Favorites makeup bloggers drugstore rimmel picks
Please, tell me it's not just me that is getting confused with all the different years in the titles of people's blog posts. One minute it is 2016 then it is 2015- I can't keep up, we seem to be jumping back and forth like time travellers! Anyway, for my second post of the year, I thought I would reflect back on all the beauty products I have loved during 2015. I remember watching these on Youtube back in the day, hoping that I could do that one day and HERE I AM! I only properly started getting into makeup this year, but it is safe to say I am hooked and I am definitely looking forward to trying more makeup and beauty products throughout 2016!
