Christmas 2014

Christmas 2014 has been my best Christmas ever! I have been spoilt so much. I am sooo lucky to have the most amazing people around me, my boyfriend,  my family and my friends. It was nice to see and spend time with everyone. This year me and Ryan also spent our first Christmas actually together, had the house to ourselves. It was soo lovely to wake up and open our presents together. Ryan made us a lovely full English breakfast, which was well needed. Then headed out to see our families.

I am sooo lucky, to be were I am and have the people I do have around me. 2014 has been my greatest year. I have moved up to supervisor with alot more responsibilities in my job, an amazing suprise valentines, my 21st birthday, mine and Ryan's 6 years of being together, I went on my first ever holiday abroad, brought a new car, which is my dream, a convertible car!!!  Throughout the year I made really good friends and lost some. But everything happens for a reason and I want to focus on the positive!  

I can't wait to see what 2015 brings me...

Happy New Year Everyone, Hope It Brings You Joy & Happiness.

Holiday Photos

So i'm sitting here looking through my photos of when me and my boyfriend went to Egypt in September, and I miss it sooo much. Miss the nice hot weather, the relaxing sun bathing, the pools, the rest etc. etc. So I thought I'd share a few photos with you.

Are They True To You?

Sometimes we are too blind to see the other side to the people closest to us. 

If your friend is gossiping about others to you, who is to say she isn't talking about you to others. Be careful who you trust, us as human it is natural for us to have different personalities. It is also natural that we gossip, we don't do it to hurt others, we do it because we are humans.

Love Letters Are The Cutest!

Facing My Fear.

So I wrote this post over two weeks ago, and finally able to post it today, as I had no internet whilst I was away. I wrote this post two and half hours into my flight. 

 ''So today 11th September, I Tackled My Biggest Fear… FLYING. I’m still at on a plane to Egypt writing this, and I am soo proud of myself. The flight two and half hours in, and is going well, the taking off was fine, I actually think I love flying now. When we was taking off I was panicking, my boyfriend was holding my hand the whole time supporting me. I cried and cried, I don’t even know why, everything was better then I imagined, today has been an emotional day. All I've seemed to do is cry, I blame my mom, crying this morning when I left for my first holiday abroad, now I've non stopped crying. At the moment the flight is smooth and I am emotionally stable again LOL. Whilst my boyfriend is asleep next to me , I’m staring out the window and realizing I am a very lucky person, to have the people I have and things I have in my life. I think this is the start of something''

After the good flight there and back, it is safe to say I love flying, I want to travel the world now. I want to experience different places in the world, see things I never dreamed of seeing. Explore different cultures, see the world. If I didn't face my fear I would never of been able to do it, but now I can. 

It is good to face your fear, I don't even know why I was scared in the first place. Our fears stop us from doing more with our lives, stops us from living our dreams. You only live once, and don't live your life scared, live it like you'll never do it again.

Tresemme Salon Finish Review

So I have been using the Tresemme salon finish freeze hold for quite some time now and I think it is time to review it and let everyone know my opinion on it. 

This hairspray is the best hairspray I have ever come across, I have tried all different hairsprays but different brands but nothing compares to this one so far. As I like to style my hair and love to have big hair sometimes I need something to keep it in place, and this just does the job perfectly. It hold my hair in place and stays how I want it to. 

It also claims tells you on the can 'climate control 24 hour resistance' this is also very true, so basically is does what it says on the can. The product also hasn't got a very strong smell to it, not like the normal strong smell that makes you choke. It actually has a nice smell to it.

This Tresemme hairspray is also affordable, I picked up a new one the other day from boots for £3.50 which I was surprised as it is a huge 500ml can. For a product that is 'used by professionals' I think this is excellent.

The only thing I can fault about this product that if you spray too much, it can give you that crunchy and stiff texture.

As Always, Thank You For Reading

So I have been wanting to change my hair for a while and seems as the summer is practically here it seems the perfect time too. I simply cannot choose from all these beautiful hair colours, I don't know which one would suit me best though, maybe the brown and blonde highlights? 

At the moment I have medium length light brown hair, and starting to get lighter and lighter like a gingery colour in some parts in the sun (See Below)...

Dove Summer Glow Review

Dove Summer Glow Review

I am going to review both fair to medium skin and medium to dark skin, I am fair skin but I have used both.

First off I'm going to review the fair to medium skin, I have used this product for months it is amazing. This product is easy to apply, because of skin the fake tan don't work on my skin very well in some parts. This is the best gradual tanner I have ever used. You should use it every day for the first few days then do it every couple of days. After the 2nd time using it you see a slight difference, it gives you a natural glow, does not turn your orange, just a very light brown which looks so natural, I have received many compliments since using it. 

Medium to dark skin gradual tanner is basically the same at the light one, but obviously darker. After one use you see a difference, it does not turn you orange in any way you look very natural light brown like you would after days of using the light colour. If you want to be slightly tanned the next day use this, I use this alot as I am lazy and don't want to use it everyday, can use this every couple of day. 

They both are slightly greasy, I exfoliate & shower, put moisturiser in dry areas. When I'm completely dry I apply this to my skin all over evenly then leave for 15 - 30 minutes, get some clothes on, and I go to bed then I shower quick in the morning to get rid of that greasy feeling. That is my basic routine. 

Overall they are both amazing products to keep your glowing and looking healthy all year round, I swear by them. They are very cheap, less than £5.

Rimmel London Instant Tan + Gradual Glow Review

Rimmel London Instant Tan + Gradual Glow Light Review

So I picked up this whilst it was on deal in Tesco, and didn't know what to think of it. It sounded amazing on the bottle, just what I needed for a night out. 

I have very pale skin, when I don't wear fake tan sometimes others often think I'm ill because I'm so pale and ill looking. So I just wanted something quick to use, luckily I brought it a week before I wanted to use it and got to test it first. 

I must say I am slightly disappointed, I found it hard to apply, it was basically like applying a foundation to your body you have to get every bit and make sure its all blended evenly, if i went over bit too much it'll come off. On my skin it did not dry very well and felt very greasy (it may be different on different skin types) I did try let it dry for 30-45 minutes, it rubbed onto my clothes and faded off my skin fast. When I showered it all came off and I don't believe the gradual glow worked a slight bit after so many tries. 

Overall this product is disappointing it doesn't go well on skin and looks very patchy and tacky, have tried many better ones. 

As I said it may be different for others but for me i disliked this product.

Heathly Homemade Pancakes!

So I had these for my breakfast and they were soo delicious (they may not look too appealing but trust me they make up for it in the tase) I have to share the recipe. These healthy banana pancakes are a good breakfast or to snack on in the day. They are so easy to make, and only require two ingredients.

- 1 - 2 Bananas
- 2 Eggs

1. Cut the banana(s) into thin slices then mash then together with a fork until mushy.
2. Add one egg into the Banana(s) and whisk using your fork or for better mixing a whisk, then add the other egg and repeat process. (You will still have banana chunks in your mixture but that gives the pancakes a better texture)
3. Heat a frying pan, use 1kcal spray or coconut oil for healthier option.
4. Once heated after 10 seconds, on a low heat add 1-2 spoons of mixture to create bites which are easy to eat.
3. On a low heat after 30 seconds, flip over so both sides are cooked properly and repeat this until both sides are golden brown.
4. Once they are golden take them out the frying pan and let to cool for a 1 minute, then you are ready to eat!

You can add sugar or syrup but remember these are healthy and sweet enough without them.
Depending on the size of your pancakes you can make 12 mini pancakes, and only has 250 kcal for all of them! Yummy!
