This Friday (July 1st, 2011) is National Motivation Day, and I decided that I wanted to share a story with you guys about my own motivation, and lack of it. It's a story that a lot of people don't know, because it represents a very dark time in my life, and I tried to hide it from people for a very long time. But, it's so long ago now, that I no longer feel ashamed to share it. And I think that it's an important thing that needs to be told, to help...

Following on from Sunday's #BBloggers conversations, on Twitter, regarding Negativity in Beauty Blogging and how to deal with it, it seems like the perfect time to be encouraging Positivity towards ourselves and each other. I think we all know that as girls we can sometimes be incredibly horrible to one another, whether it's down to jealousy, trying (in the wrong way) to be constructive, or just being plain mean!So, with that in mind, I...

I don't like blogging about Press Releases very often, but I was lucky enough to be given the opportunity to try one of Madara's products a few months back, which I absolutely loved, but was debating whether to purchase anything else, purely because they were, quite expectantly, rather on the pricey side. And, I try to stick to cheaper brands and products as much as I can, not only because I can't afford them, but because I've always tried to...

It's kinda weird, over the past twelve months, I've gotten quite into doing weird things with my nails, you know, being creative with them. But, I never seem to remember to do any Nails of the Day, in fact, I think that over the course of this blog, I've only done two, and both of those were Konad-based.Well, rest assured that todays is not Konad based. It's not complicated. It's not all fancy-pants. It's just simple, and probably won't be to a lot...

When it comes to make up, I have two things that I always get a little bit excited about:1. Urban Decay (my absolute luxury brand, that I really have to save up to buy)2. Eyeliners (if I had to live the rest of my life with only one make up, I would always choose eyeliner. If I was only allowed one beauty product, well that might be a little bit more difficult, because then lip balm would also a strong contender!!)So, if you throw both of these things...

You guessed it, it's Tuesday, and you know what Tuesday is? It's Positivity Day of course. Which it kind of is, in a way, because well, you've gotten over the Monday blues, so you just need to get through today and then you know that you're officially half way through the week. Oh, why did I not think of this before?Hmm, yeah, so anyway, I just wanted to start today's post, with something really positive, which is to tell you guys that I am one of...

Tomorrow is the longest day of the year, so we all know what that means, right? What, no, not the fact that the nights are now slooooowly drawing back in again, but the fact that Summer is officially here. So, grab your sunglasses, and your favourite book because we are heading to the beach....what do you mean it's forecast rain....?We all know that the number one most important beauty item, at this time of year is sun cream. It doesn't matter that...

About a week ago, someone on Twitter was asking about Konad, so I thought that now would be a really great time to do a little FAQ-style article on the heres, the hows and the what-nots of the business that is Konad. Now, I should point out, that I am not an expert, and a lot of the things I say are purely my own opinion, but these are just a few things that I've picked up on my year-long journey into the excesses of Konad geek fandom!!Q. What is...

Every single day, no matter what we're doing, our lives are bombarded with advertising. On the Train, watching television, surfing the net, reading a magazine. Everywhere is just advertising. Some adverts are really clever and thought-provoking, whilst others, are just so infuriatingly annoying, that I feel the need to rip my hair out.I'm not talking about WeBuyAnyCar.com, or Mazuma, or any of those irritating adverts, either, because they're irritating...

I realised that I didn't do anything Positivity based on Tuesday, so I'm doing Part Two of my guide to staying positive today, instead. Which is probably a good time, for me, personally, to be writing a positive post:)If you missed the first part, you can check it out here. But, for those who have read the first part here goes with Part Two:Three. Hold your Head High and Stand up StraightBut not too high of course! We don't want to look like pompous...

Ever since I can remember, my family have always been big users of Nivea products, whether it was the huge blue tub that lived in the Shower Room, or the tiny tin that lived in my mum's handbag (you know how mum's handbags are always full of everything!!). In fact, recently my Mum and I traded hand creams, because she wasn't keen on the one that she owned, but loved the one I was using, and it wasn't really too big of a surprise, that both of the...

Ten years ago, a film came out, that I honestly believed was predicting my own future. Okay, so I was only seventeen years old, at the time, but when you're seventeen, a long-term singleton, and of course, female, you do have a tendency to be a little bit melodramatic. Okay, incredibly melodramatic. That film, is (no surprises) Bridget Jones's Diary.Skip forward to a few months back, and I came across a poll on a website, which annoyingly, I can't...
