What I'm Watching on Netflix UK | August 2018

At the moment I have been spending a lot of time watching Netflix, nothing new there! At the moment I have been watching it a lot more than usual though as I am waiting for my university course to start in September so Netflix has been filling my extra time when I’m not writing blog posts or seeing my friends.

House of Sparklez UK Fine Loose Glitter | Review

I had seen House of Sparklez UK*, a vegan, cruelty-free brand, around Instagram for a while and heard loads of people saying that it was one of their favourite brands and their prices were really affordable. I decided that I would buy a couple of their products to see what they were like because as you all know I have a makeup addiction. House of Sparklez UK sell a range of glitters, highlighters and false eyelashes but as I don’t wear false eyelashes and have more than enough highlighters at the moment I opted to buy two glitters.

A Taste of Greece | Halloumi (Glasgow) Review

I love Greek food but I rarely get the chance to eat it. I have visited Halloumi twice in the last six months as it has become a favourite of mine and my family. On this occasion, last week, my family were meeting my aunt and uncle for a catch up.

I've recently found myself in a comfortable place with my makeup as the majority of my products are amazing. I do still have some products that I'm not too sure about however. I have a few of my absolute favourite products at the moment which are all from the drugstore and that I really can’t go without. So, here's my favourite beauty products review!

The Remarkable Extra Spice Eyeshadow Palette | Soph x Makeup Revolution London

I’m slightly running late to this party in relation to the Extra Spice eyeshadow palette, a collaboration between Makeup Revolution London and Soph from SophDoesNails even though I have loved Revolution for a long time and I have to admit they have some of the best drugstore makeup. I also love Soph as she has astonishing eye makeup and informative beauty reviews. I instantly knew I had to have the Extra Spice palette as soon as I saw it. I loved the shades, the packaging and the shade names.

The Sephora 01 Always Red Cream Lip Stain | Review

After what seems like forever, last year I finally tried the Sephora make up range. Whilst I was in Italy in July 2017 I had to go into Sephora as there isn’t currently one where I live. It took me so long to buy something even though I’ve wanted to try something from their rage for so long.

Real Talk and The No Country for Young Women Podcast

Real talk as I'm sitting writing this I'm finding myself blankly staring at the computer screen unsure of what to write and worried about it being good enough. It has been nearly two months since I last wrote a blog post. 

Birthday Celebrations and Zizzi's | Review

My twin and I went out for lunch in Glasgow at Zizzi’s on Tuesday to celebrate our birthday. We sat outside as we had to make the most of soaking up the Scottish sun as we get a lack of it. To be honest a lack of it is an understatement. Neither the less it almost felt like we were in Italy as the sun beamed down on us.

Period Pain | How To Relieve It

Menstrual cramps (Dysmenorrhea) are an entire pain.  For some people who have vaginas, it can be so severe enough to interfere with their everyday activities such as school and socialising.  can leave some doubled over in constant agony and not wanting to move a single inch. However, for the lucky ones, periods are just a bit uncomfortable and annoying. Nevertheless, severe menstrual cramps do not have to be the case if you know how to relieve period pain.

Anxiety and Stress | Tips To Deal With Them

As humans, we often feel overwhelmed. Whether that be due to an endless to-do list to get through the week or the longest list of events we had our hearts set on attending, we attempt to take on the impossible. 

Body Shaming | I’m Talking To You

Do. Not. Let. Your. Mind. Bully. Your. Body.

I know people say this all the time. I also know this can be tough to do. Trust me though, you don’t need thinner legs or softer skin. What really is needed is a change in perspective and higher self-esteem.

Period Poverty and Female Health | Update

Over the last couple of weeks, I have started listening to podcasts on female health, general health and fitness which has been really eye-opening for me. Health has always been an interest of mine but it has grown in the last year since doing a healthcare course at college.

The Law Of Attraction | Reflecting On The Past

It’s currently 8 o’clock at night as I write this and I'm drinking a cup of tea listening to some of my favourite upbeat songs. I haven’t done much with my day today apart from reflecting on my past and that’s okay! I try not to reflect too deeply anymore as I’m trying to break the never-ending cycle of my vicious “what if” thoughts. Thoughts such as what if I had said this instead of that or what if I hadn’t done that, would things be different?
