Pushing Through Those Times Of Un-motivation When You're Just Starting Out

When you're trying to make yourself visible in a world where almost everyone is doing the same thing you are, it can be difficult to keep yourself motivated. It can often feel that the hours of writing, photo taking and editing you're doing is going un-noticed and underappreciated when realistically, that's not the case. It's just there's so many of us all trying to get to the same place.

Vita Liberata Invisi Foaming Tan Water - The Tan Of Dreams

Now, I've never been one for self tanning. Being a ginger gal with paler than pale skin, I've always been apprehensive about wearing false tan because I thought I would end up looking horrendously tangoed and my skin would end up clashing with my hair.

Netflix Shows I'm Obsessed With

If you're like me, you'll love to spend all your free time thinking about all of the stuff you could (should) be doing but instead, you're sat watching Netflix and scrolling through your Insta feed looking at all of the other, more productive, people you follow.

It's okay, I support that decision. In fact, I support it so much I'm giving another 3 shows to add to your "binge watch" list.

The Ordinary - A Brand Far From That

*CONFESSION TIME* I never ever used to have a skincare routine. I used to be one of these gals who would wipe their makeup off half arsedly with a makeup wipe at the end of the day and maybe occasionally use a chemical riddled face scrub in the shower for a treat lol.

My skin wasn't terrible but it wasn't healthy, it was pretty dry and although I never really got spots, I got really horrendous black head (TMI, I know, sorry!) It just wasn't looking or feeling good. It wasn't really until I got really into makeup and beauty did I start to learn the basics of skin care. Mainly because I was frustrated about my makeup not sitting right on my face.

When skincare started to peak my interest I wanted something that was going to be easy and not too time-consuming (I hated having to faff about before getting into bed, lazy girl life) I tried a lot of products and routines and none of them stuck because I didn't enjoy doing them and to be honest it was pretty expensive!

 I stumbled across The Ordinary when I say stumbled I mean everyone was already talking about it and I was very late to the party, so I thought I'd give it a shot. I've been using their products for about a month now and honestly, I'm in love!
