Nails | Cheating at Watermarble

I love watermarble nails, but I'm not the best with the technique and it often becomes frustrating when everything seems to be going wrong. I was watching the How to Cheat at Watermarble Series on the Simply Nailogical YouTube channel (one of my favourite YouTube channels by the way!) and I decided I wanted to try one of the cheats. The cheat I tried was making watermarble stickers. I'm going to show you how that cheat went, taking you guys through it step by step as a sort of mini tutorial.

Sample Review | Grounded Chocolate Orange Coffee Scrub


I recently ordered myself a sample packet of Grounded’s Chocolate Orange Coffee Scrub and decided to let you guys know what I think. Since I have sensitive skin I find it better to try a sample of a product first instead of outright buying it. If it doesn't cause a reaction with my skin then it eliminates me wasting money on a product that I can’t use. Especially as a mum, it's important to me to make sure I’m spending my money on something that I will use.

Sun Awareness Week 2016 | Safeguard your Skin


May 9th to May 16 is Sun Awareness Week in the UK and it seems fitting that the sun has finally appeared whilst I’m blogging about this. I’m writing about this because this is something that I feel is really important to share but is also something I feel personally strong about. I have fair skin, fair hair (originally) and a lot of moles meaning that I’m in a high risk category when it comes to skin damage from the sun. I can’t spend much time in the sun because my skin burns terribly. Now that I have a baby, I also need to safeguard her skin from the dangers of the sun. So, as it’s Sun Awareness Week, I’ll be writing about a few things you can do to safeguard yourself, and your little ones, from the sun.
What can you do to protect your skin from burning?

Top 5 favourite nail polishes

Now that I actually have nails (I used to be a serious nail biter!) I've been able to paint and decorate them as much as I like. I've also found that having beautifully decorated nails has curbed any desire to bite my nails. Why take all that time to decorate something to destroy it?

So, I thought today I would share my 5 favourite nail polishes that are currently in my nail box.

My facial skincare routine

Today I'm going to talk about my skincare routine~
It's taken me to find a while to find products that suit my skin. My skin is generally dry, and especially so at the minute with the cold and windy weather. I get a lot of dry patches on and around my nose and my forehead.
