| SKINCARE ROUTINE |

Image
Hey and welcome back to my blog! In today's blogpost I am talking about all things skincare related, from a young age I have been using skincare on a regular basis. It has always been part of my daily routine. I think it is extremely important to look after your skin and it is really easy to do as there are many affordable products in the market. I want to talk about the products I love and how they are easy and gentle to use on the skin everyday. Nivea Products: From the start of my teenage years I have always used some sort of Nivea skincare. My mam has always used it and she advised me to look after my skin from a young age. I have tried many types of moisturers from this well known brand and now I use the 'Nivea Essentials' Day cream. It is perfect for using as a base for applying makeup or if you just want hydrated skin all day this is the best moisturer for me because my skin type is normal but can sometimes be dry around my  nose and this helps combat this a...

'The Stigma'

Image
Hey everyone and welcome back to my blog, it has been a considerable amount of time since I have posted on this platform and today I want to talk about the topic of 'Mental Health' This topic can sometimes be the 'elephant' in the room for some people but I am so sick of people treating our mental health as a joke. I know myself I have struggled with my own Mental Health with severe anxiety in school where it came to stage of not wanting to leave my bed cause I was so nervous of what the day would bring. Now though since transitioning into college I have adapted a better mindset to life and try to be as positive as I can when it comes dealing with exam stress and overall life stresses that used to get me down previously. At some point in everyone's life qw struggle with mental health issues whether its body image, depression or anxiety we all have our own insecurities. In this blogpost, I want to ask everyone reading this to please be more open-minded to this top...

- NYX MAKE-UP REVIEW -

Image
Hey everyone and welcome back to another post on my blog. In today's post I am going to be reviewing the very popular make-up brand NYX. This brand has became massive in Ireland in the past couple of years and I decided I would try some of their products to see if they are worth the hype and the money. NYX is an american brand which has became very popular because of it's exposure by famous you tubers, and that's how I got to know the brand and I would definitely recommend trying at least one of their products as they are usually good quality while also having a great price range. I have been using these series of make-up products for the last couple of months and many of them have became a favourite to use when doing my make-up regularly. NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream I am obsessed with trying different types of liquid lipsticks and I heard good reviews from other bloggers and you tubers about their  Soft Matte Lip creams. When I first applied this product it was str...

New year, New beginnings

Image
Hi everyone and welcome to my blog, one of my first goals of 2017 is to post more on this platform because I feel my presence on this blog is irregular and it's time for change because I have so many ideas for blogposts that I want to share with you on my blog this year. I hope you all had a fabulous christmas and new year. Now I am finished my exams for Semester 1 in Maynooth University and I am ready to take on a new year with new opportunities and chances to make this year the best one yet. I really don't believe in setting resolutions, the word 'resolutions' is scary to me, I find setting 'resolutions' is really like lying to yourself because if you set them for yourself and fail at them, it makes you feel bad and only creates negative atmosphere for the new year ahead. With setting resolutions everything seems too real and it's hard to actually stick to them for a week never mind a whole year (well this my opinion on resolutions and mostly I am wrong ...

-Winter Sun-

Hey peoples' and welcome back to my blog, It has been quite a while since I have posted because I have been really busy with college (assignments, assignments and more assignments) and this is only first year but I am loving it. I can't believe the first semester is over already, time is going way too fast. In today's post I am sharing some of my favourite pictures that were taken on my recent holiday to Lanzarote. The weather was good but not as warm as usual but it was nice to get away from the cold for a week and soak up some Vitamin D. (lol) and no I didn't get a tan because I am basically a vampire but anyways you can't be always blessed with that bronze glow. The place was really nice and the beach was amazing. All round the holiday was a nice break away from reality of cold and damp days and college work. My favourite outfit I wore on this trip was definitely this one, I am recently obsessed with Double Denim and the vintage look and this was perfect for...
