For a while now, I’ve been experimenting with differing recipes using protein powder. I absolutely adore baking (as you might have guessed), but with a gym-obsessed boyfriend with a sweet-tooth who moans about the amount of sugar and fat I’m tempting him with, I decided to try and find alternative ‘healthier’ recipes. Switching up ingredients …
I love myself a bit of Aldi. We are forever stocking up on their own brand foods (I would thoroughly recommend their version of Terry’s chocolate orange bites), but in the past couple of years they have vastly developed their Lacura beauty range. I remember as a teenager trying out their moisturisers and thinking they …
I have always posted a lot of recipes on this site; most of them sharing my love for baking. Cakes, brownies, biscuits and desserts…they all reflect my sweet-tooth! Apart from a couple of Slimming World recipes, I have never shared any savoury snacks on my blog. Well, this is about to change! This cheesy bacon …
Trichotillomania has made me hate photos of myself. Something you don’t realise until you have no eyebrows is that even with make-up filling them in, photos often show the baldness (it makes them look shiny…it’s difficult to describe but the photos almost take away the make-up). The best ways to try and stop this is …
When you ask most people what make-up means to them, I am sure many will give answers that go beyond purely aesthetic reasons. It’s a creative outlet, a form of expression, but it also empowers and allows you to convey who you are. The only difference is that trichotillomania has made me fear life without …
The nails in question are from the relatively new Chrome Collection from Elegant Touch. The super-cool range features four different styles- all are stiletto shaped and run along the holographic theme but vary in colour. I used to really dislike stiletto nails (doing any small task with long, pointed claws becomes difficult!) and much preferred …
I feel like I’m a bit stubborn and unexciting when it comes to make-up. Once I find a product that works well, it takes a lot for me to venture out and try new things. I stick with what I know, and it usually never fails me! This goes for the RapidLash serum I rave …
You spent 12 minutes applying a pair of $2 strip lashes. By minute 45, the inner corner had lifted. By minute 90, one strip was dangling off your lash line like a broken awning. You spent the rest of the night holding a compact mirror in the bathroom, pressing it back down with a finger …
I have only ever dabbled with fake tans once or twice before. Whilst many rely on them for that bronzed goddess look on a weekly basis, I have reached for fake tan just a handful of times in my life! For ages, I have been so scared of putting on too much and having to …
There are so many brands and styles out there it can be difficult to know where to start and what to look out for, and for the purposes of reviewing on this site I try out quite a fair amount- but not many of them become my go-to’s. Although the lashes that have made it …
