Well That Was A Long Nap

Hello beautiful people!!!

Wow, almost 2 years since I posted on here....TWO YEARS!! I don't really have a major excuse as to why I haven't posted..I think I just wasn't in a place where I wanted to write, had a lot going on and was working a ridiculous amount so didn't have the energy and didn't want to fake anything on here and act all happy clappy when in fact I was drained af.

But yes...I've been away, and I've started a new blog; think I just wanted a fresh start.... so anyone that still wants to put up with me and my waffling, head here :-)

Monday Motivation (Yes, I know it's Wednesday); Overcoming Fear

Hi all, my friend sent me this and thought I'd share it with you all. Hope it helps someone out there.. Always believe in yourself <3

Monday Musings

Hello my loves, literally just wanted to share these three thoughts with you. I won't elaborate on them, I think they speak for themselves. Hope everyone is good, and if you're not, I pray it gets better for you

Monday Musings: How Ugly Are You?

Ok this is going to be brief because what I'm about to put below is all I want you take out of this post...no "laadeedaa this is what I bought today/ this is what I wore" ...No. Please girls/boys/men/women/EVERYONE remember this always <3 

(AND THE SAME GOES FOR MEN!!!)

- Don't diminish your worth based on what you think society wants/likes 
- Stop focussing on your "flaws" 
- Stop comparing yourself to other people 
- Love yourself 
- Respect yourself
- Know yourself; don't try and be who you think everyone wants you to be, you are the way you are for a reason. Embrace it. 


Darling, you are enough, and don't let anyone tell you or make you feel otherwise. 
          
                                                     YOU. ARE. ENOUGH. 
                                     

Mini Beauty Haul: GOSH Lumi Drops, Growth Mascara, Rapid Lash

Hello lovelies!! Hope everyone has had a blessed week and is ready for Monday...This time last week I was on a flight heading to LA and now I'm back in rainy England, the time went so quickly it's unreal...there will be a post about LA and Coachella coming very soon :-) But for now here's a quick post about the new products I'm really excited about, they'll be product updates coming soon.

 Sooooo..... Product No.1: GOSH LUMI DROPS- Illuminating highlighter- £7.99 

Initial thoughts: Love it! I don't usually use highlighters or any sort of illuminating product, mostly due to laziness but also because I don't know much about application and what products would be good for my complexion so I was sceptical about buying this. As soon as I did a swatch however, it was love at first...well first swatch I guess.



 No.2: GOSH GROWTH MASCARA- Promotes longer lashes in 2 weeks (apparently) £9.99 Initial thoughts: Not too keen on the brush, struggled slightly to coat my lashes using it but overall, decent mascara, just waiting to see if it actually lengthens my lashes after two weeks, I'll keep you posted 

 No: 3 RAPID LASH EYELASH ENHANCING SERUM- £- Can't remember, I think £17.99 from Amazon Initial thoughts: Wish it was a mascara wand instead of a thin brush applicator but considering it needs to be applied to the base of the lashes it makes sense. Like the previous product, just got to wait a few weeks to see results (30 days) ...will deffo do a progress post on this

Food For Thought Fridays (FFTF): Nicole Scherzinger

Waddup homies?
Sup?
What's occurring?
I don't know why I said that but yeh, hope you've had a good week and will have a lovely weekend.

Anyways, I've decided to add a, what do you call these things? A feature? A series? I'm being serious by the way, I'm not trying to be funny or anything...I'm going to call it a series, although that's probably wrong but whatever, I've decided to do a series called Food For Thought Fridays which is pretty much what it says on the tin. In a nutshell, I'll be posting about anything that I find interesting, anything you may find interesting/useful..basically what I've been trying to do anyway but every Friday. Yes. You read correctly. EVERY FRIDAY! Which hopefully will make my blogging more consistent as opposed to one blogpost every 5 months.

So yes, unnecessary introduction over, welcome my first FFTF post:

I don't know by but I randomly reignited my obsession with this song, and after listening to the Madonna version on repeat, came across this one. All I can say is, I cried. A lot. hope you liked it.
