Back after a LONG break

It has been so long since I last posted that I may have forgotten how to write! There are various reasons that I had stopped blogging, I go into these in detail on other posts but underlying I felt that i had nothing to speak about.

But it will be good to get back on the blogging bandwagon and may be slighty theraputic, we shall see!

Post Natal Depression - a Journey

This will perhaps be the most difficult post to write as it means revisiting old feelings and experiences, however I feel like it is the right time for me to express this and also if someone happens to stumble upon this post and it helps them in anyway no matter how small then that can only be a good thing. I had known for a long time after having my daughter that I did not feel like myself / did not feel 'right' however I would always put this down to other factors mainly resulting in me blaming myself and in turn I would feel worse. Its actually really difficult to know where to begin with this post, and as I am typing I am already trying to think of ways to make it as brief as possible, but this would be missing the point! To summarize, I only actually got diagnosed with Post Natal Depression (sometimes Ante Natal Depression) after my daughter was 2 and a half years old, that is a long time I was suffering and it was fair to say I was at breaking point when I walked into t...

My Lip Filler Journey

Here it is as promised - my lip filler journey / experience. Lip fillers are something I’ve always been in 2 minds about. One week I’m thinking Yes! I’m doing it and researching the best practitioners etc and then by the following week I’m having doubts - what if it goes wrong? What if I hate it? What if it ruins my face forever? And so on. So when a good friend of mine embarked on a training course to learn all things beauty including fillers and aesthetics I knew this would fall into my comfort and I would get to finally try it out whilst also supporting my friend. I’m notorious for researching things excessively so I pretty much had in my mind what I wanted to get from the fillers - I wanted as natural as possible, keeping the same shape as my natural lips but just a bit fuller. I specifically didn’t want the ‘duck face’ look and I wanted upper and lower lips to be balanced! My main decision to be made was whether To have 0.5ml or 1ml. On the advice of my friend and from my ex...

Beauty and Skincare 2019 Product reviews

In the four ish (wow thats a long time) years since I was actively blogging, my skincare routine and views have changed a bit. I can now see that before I was often purely drawn to a product because of pretty packaging or a brand name. Here are the current products I am using: Lush Enzymion I have never had problem skin but had been looking for a cream that is as natural as possible as the idea of putting unnecessary chemicals on my skin did not sit right with me. And so I thought I would try a face cream from Lush, for me, this is by bar the best cream I have ever used and to make it even better Lush are well known for being vegan and ethical. The cream is very light and melts into your skin smoothly without leaving any residue. I find it the perfect balance of moisture without being greasy, and I truly feel like by skin is brighter since using the cream, I use this underneath foundation and in the summer its perfect by itself on fresh skin. The cream isn't scented but naturall...
