The Importance Of Exercise
Before you roll your eyes at the title of the post, hear me out. Around a year or so ago, I made the conscious effort to include some form of exercise in my routine. I've never been a person that has found fitness easy and I really struggle with my physical health which definitely makes it difficult. The thought of going to a gym terrified me but after a big pep talk from myself I decided it was the easiest way to ease myself into some sort of routine. Little did I know the effect it would have on my life, fitness goes further than physique and today I wanted to discuss why it's important to do some form of exercise.
The A/W Survival Kit
When you think of autumn & winter you probably imagine something reminiscent to the image above. Crisp leaves, wrapping up in your favourite knitwear and all that other good stuff. Whilst I love that version of A/W it's not always the reality and it's more damp and soggy then fresh and crisp. So today I've compiled the ultimate autumn & winter survival guide to make the next few months feel like heaven.
Covering Up Blemishes & Redness
For years, I've struggled with covering up scarring, blemishes and redness. When I see before and after pictures online I often think those ladies (or gents) are blessed with some sort of magic makeup skill that I won't ever possess.

Formulating A Skin Care Routine That Really Works
Often I talk about skincare and completely forget there was once a time where I felt so lost and confused when it came to the world of cleansers and moisturisers. Up until the age of 21 I didn't have a solid skincare routine in place and just used whatever happened to be laying around or was on offer. I was completely clueless with where to start when it came to building myself a routine that was going to work for my skin. So think of today's post as a complete beginners guide to creating a skincare system that will work for you.
Hey, Lonely Girl
Loneliness and being alone is something that I've touched upon before as it's quite a big part of my life. 2015 has been another tough year when it comes to the subject of loneliness. I think it's something that many of us struggle with but don't want to admit it. It's something that we should speak about more so it's not so stigmatised and people don't feel so ashamed about feeling lonely.
