The Nightly Skincare Routine That Will Leave Your Skin Feeling Nourished and Loved

Image
This is how it goes... You get home from a late night out and you feel too tired and lazy to wash your face, so what do you do instead? You go straight to bed with all the makeup on.   We're all guilty of this! I know I am for sure. Not gonna lie, this was my routine in my teens and early twenties.  The day I decided to begin and stick with a nightly and morning skincare routine, is the day my life, and my skin for that matter, changed forever.   I have normal skin throughout the year but, it does tend to get a bit dry in the Winter, which is expected because of the change in the weather. For that reason, I am able to try many different products on my skin without causing damage to it or breaking out.  Having said that, y ou need to be mindful of YOUR skin type and buy products that will compliment YOUR skin, instead of following someone else's routine to a tee that might actually be harmful to your skin.  On another note, I'm slowly transitioning towards n

6 Affordable Knitted Jumpers to Keep You Warm and Looking Classy This Winter

As we approach the Winter season and the weather begins to get colder, there's only one thing that can get me through it: Warm Knitted Jumpers!  Now, there are a lot of options out there but, I've put together a list of my 6 favourite jumpers from H&M, Zara, Topshop, ASOS, Missguided, and Boohoo that are both cute and affordable.  Let's begin!  1. H&M: Rib-Knit Jumper with a Collar Once you feel the quality of this jumper, you'd think that it's very expensive however, it is only £29.99! I think that it's important to have a casual jumper in your closet for the days that you are in a rush or feel lazy and want to be cozy and warm. It is a bit oversized but it goes so well with light washed jeans and a pair of white sneakers. I love the zipper detail, as it allows you to wear it on its own zipped up or with the zipper down and a white tank top underneath.  2. Zara: Oversized Knit Sweater with a Round Neckline and Long Sleeves

HO HO HO It's that time of the year again! I don't know about you but, I've got a love/hate relationship with Christmas shopping. I love Christmas but somehow I always find myself shopping for hours without a clue of what to buy for my family and friends. So, I've decided to put together a list of 5 items that make the perfect gift for him or her this Christmas!  1. Alphabet or Personalised Mugs I think mugs make the perfect gift for the holiday season. Think of those cold or rainy days, when all you want to do is pour yourself a hot cup of tea or coffee and stay in bed all day...binge watching on Netflix! Now, imagine how much more special it would be if you personalised it with the recipient's name. There are a lot of different websites that offer personalised gifts depending on your location but, you can also check out Amazon and eBay.  In the UK, the price ranges from £6-15 + Shipping (some may offer free shipping).  If you are on a bu
