An Introduction to Laves – a Modern Skincare Brand, Backed by Science

An Introduction to Laves - a Modern Skincare Brand, Backed by Science
This post contains PR/gifted items, no paid content. All opinions are my own
 
Hello everyone! 
 
Since I got nearer to the age of 30 I tended to pay a little more attention to my skincare regime more and learn what is best for my skin, now I know much more at 30 and usually know what’s best for my skin. Rollback the clock to 10 years ago I wasn’t very skincare savvy because I didn’t do any skincare apart the occasional Nivea moisturiser, so you can see i wasn’t in the know, looking back I wish I used SPF and did my homework and learn more then!
L’aves know that our skin changes daily and can be affected by things such as hormones, environmental conditions and even stress, so their products have the necessary ingredients our skin needs. All of their products are made in small batches so they are guaranteed to be fresh every time. They have skincare for all ages because we know our skin needs different things at different stages of our lives.
Their products are palm oil-free, preservative-free and free from such as harmful fragrance, no additive colour, no parabens, no phthalates or gluten. They are also eco friendly, vegan and cruelty-free.

POWERED BY NATURE, BACKED BY SCIENCE

My most used Lipsticks so far this year | 2020
Hello everyone!
2020 has definitely been one of those years I am sure many of us will remember for a long time! It’s not been anything like we are used to and getting used to new norms is defiantly not easy and takes so time to get adjusted too as well.
One thing for sure is that i don’t wear lip products as much as I used to because of daily wearing face masks leaves the inside of my masks looking like a makeup removing wipe leaving my lipstick all over my mouth area which can be a right laugh if you’re going to a restaurant for example LOL.
Anyways here are the lipsticks I used so much they ended up being in my handbag!

Going back to the Gym: After Lockdown

going back to the gym after lockdown
Hello everyone ❤
It seems like forever ago when the gyms shut at the start of Lockdown back in March. During the lockdown, I have to say my fitness levels did suffer as I didn’t do as much exercise with restrictions and also me being super nervous of the virus put a dampener on things. I have been a member of the gym for a few years now so I was wondering how it would be when it opened up again. 
England opened their gyms in July but here in Scotland, it was nearer the end of August for them to open again with restrictions of course. Now I have to admit I was super nervous going back to the gym after all the time off and of course, the worry of COVID 19 was niggling in the back of my mind.

It has been so many times that even my gran says what colour hair does she have now LOL. A couple of weeks ago I decided to give the blonde a whirl again and while choosing a dye I seen this gorgeous shade ‘Lavender Vida Loca‘ by Bleach London and I just knew I just had to try it!
