Lockdown

20 fun things to do this festive season

December 10, 2020      24 Comments

2020 has definitely been a year to remember for so many reasons and most of them being things we want to forget about. Thankfully we now have a vaccine and hopefully, in 2021 there will be much more happiness and catching up with life.

Even though 2020 has been with a lot of negatives with Covid, I have had positives in life such as reading more, spending time with my kids and basically having mre time to relax. I am going with the positive vibes and sharing some things that can brighten up the festive season.

Going back to the Gym: After Lockdown

September 15, 2020      Leave a Comment

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.

A Skincare Self-Care Package from Antipodes

May 30, 2020      10 Comments

Hello everyone! 
At the start of lockdown, I was very fortunate to get a lovely email from Antipodes asking me if I would like a self-care package. I jumped at the chance as I love skincare products and being honest I felt a bit low at the start of lockdown as they have been so many changes during this uncertain time. They sent me some of their new products as well as some older favourites too.
When the box came it was so tiny I found they may be only a small gift inside but nope, they was two skincare products and two lipsticks. Inside was the new Antipodes Baptise h20 hydrating gel, also new was the Kiwi Seed Gold Luminous Eye cream. Lastly, they were two healthy lipsticks in the shades in Queenstown Hot chocolate and Forest Berry red.

5 Things On My To-Do List After Lockdown

May 25, 2020      25 Comments

Hello everyone!

I know the lockdown sounds like its lasted forever and we don’t know truly how long it’s going to last after either. We know how important the lockdown is because of effects of COVID 19. I am not in a rush to do these things but I know they will come at the right time and I can tell you something.. I am excited about some more normality as lockdown can be hard for sure.
They are so many things I miss that sometimes it can be upsetting thinking about them so I have decided to make a positive out of negative and write a post on what things I am looking forward to when the lockdown is finally over and they are no more coronavirus.

Lockdown Dairy: I shaved off my hair…

May 13, 2020      22 Comments

Hello everyone!

Now you may be all wondering why on earth I have decided to go for a buzzcut! A few things came into a play to why I decided to do this, now more than ever.  My hair has been pretty darn damaged from the number of times I have dyed my hair and also bleaching it. I have lost count the number of times I have done the process throughout the years.

Now I can’t complain I have enjoyed having so many different hairstyles and looks but my hair had enough recently as I overdid it with the hair bleach. I bleached my hair twice over the span of 2 days and my goodness it was so damaged and brittle that lots of it broke even by the slightest touch. I thought putting a dye over it would help with the damage but nope it didn’t. It just looked patchy and super dry. They were only one thing for me to do…

(AD-gifted) I really love CBD products as they wor (AD-gifted) I really love CBD products as they work so well for me. Whether it be skincare or oil they are fab. 
I was kindly sent this 500mg CBD oil by @wethriveofficial . I got it in the flavour peppermint which is lovely. I find that CBD helps keep me calmer and settle me for bed. They have different strengths and flavours available. 

These CBD Oils from Thrive are THC free and Vegan friendly. For more info check out their website. 

Check out my thoughts on my blog. Link in bio 💜

Have you tried CBD before?

First book of 2021 read. My mum gifted me a few S First book of 2021 read. 
My mum gifted me a few Stephen King books a couple of years ago as she knows I love thriller/horror films.

I lost this book half way through reading it but recently found it again and finished it.

If you expect it to be like the film you will be kinda right but in some parts of the book, it kinda made me put it down for a few seconds because of gory details that make the film seem more soft. Seriously you will know what I mean when you get to the axe part omg 😵

I’m happy that this is the first book of the year I have completed! It was brilliant and I’m looking forward to reading more from Stephen King.

AD-Gifted ❄️ I really like these second skin h AD-Gifted ❄️
I really like these second skin highlighters from @joliebeauty they come in 4 shades. 
Dreaming - a light champagne 
Saintly- a golden shimmer
Euphoria - a rose gold shimmer 
Paradise - peachy rose gold 
They add a nice glow to the skin without being to shimmery. You can add a little for a natural look or add more for an more intense glow. Check out the review oh my blog 🌙
