Chapter 11...Top 10 Tips on how to survive Valentines Day alone!

Hi Guys,
I don't know about you all but I am very experienced when it comes to spending Valentines Day alone! Todays post is for everyone in the single squad, I hope these tips help you all out...




Tip One-
Remember don't overboard, your partner should love you no matter what so whether you go to a 5 star restaurant or eat take out in front of a movie as long as they know you love them and vice versa then that's all that matters. Don't feel like you need to spend buckets of money for one day, I mean lets be honest there shouldn't be one day to express your love it should be everyday...

Tip Two-
Following on from the first tip, if you don't have enough money to buy a gift from the shop, then make one! Spending 20 minutes on a DIY gift can show love a lot more than taking two seconds picking a card. Why not bake some cookies or for  healthier option wake your other half up with a special strawberry smoothie for breakfast in bed!

Link to these on the "cookies"

Tip Three-
Pamper yourself! Take some time to make yourself feel good, why not pick up a Lush bath bomb, my favourite is the Lush box called "In Your Dreams" it includes a Unicorn Horn bubble bar this is filled with calming Lavender oil and Ylang Ylang oil, also it has a "Tisty Tosty" bath bomb bursting with floral notes of Rose and Jasmine!

Tip Four-

Why not buy yourself a Valentines gift, no need to wait for a guy or a girl to buy one for you! Pick yourself up some flowers for your room or a box of chocolates for a midnight snack..


 Tip Five-
Don't have enough money to go out for take-out? No problem cook yourself a meal! Making a quick pizza takes no time and is super fun to have alone or even better share with friends!

Tip Six-
Talking about friends why not surprise a bestie with a Valentines gift, it will make them feel great and you wont be alone!

Tip Seven-
Watching a movie is a great thing to do whilst enjoying your home-cooked meal or if you want to make a night of it why not marathon a Netflix series, I'm enjoying "Orange Is the New Black", "Making a Murderer" and "Prison Break". I promise you wont regret it!

Tip Eight-
Feel like you want to go out! Then grab a group of friends and hit the town, but remember to be safe and responsible if you decide to partayy, DONT drink and drive! Ill link a video below about tips to stay healthy on a night out. REMEMBR drink lots of water and eat!

Tip Nine-
Following the last point, in general remember to stay healthy, for some people feeling alone is the worst feeling in the world and don't let it get to rock bottom, there are people that can help or just simply listen, I've linked below the Samaritans webpage. Remember if you need someone to chat to you can always email or tweet me, links below!

Tip Ten-
Finally, if there is someone that you take a fancy too....GO FOR IT! The worst that can happen is you get to do all of the tips above!

Chapter 8...20 Questions TAG!

Hiya guys,
So today I have decided to do another Tag post because that's what people seem to like the most! So here goes!

I CANNOT leave the house without my phone, its my life! I have everything on my phone and I just feel lost without it...that's bad right?

3. Favourite Flowers?
I love poppies because I love what they stand for, every flower tells a different soldiers story.
4. Favourite perfume?
Literally any perfume by Zara, they are spot on for every scent they produce and they also make the mini roll-ons for your purse!5. Favourite clothing store?
I'm a big fan of H&M clothes, they stock many different types of clothing like grunge to summery and their clothes are very true too size.
6. Heels or Flats?
Heels all the way! I'm a dancer so for me I find it really easy to walk in them and they just make everything look better.
7. Do you get good grades?Ur I would say that I'm average, I try my best and to me that's all you can ask of a person.

Light blue! But surprisingly I chose red as my prom dress colour, I think I'm going to do a Get Ready With Me blog for my prom let me know down below if you think its a good idea.

I drink Orange juice in the morning when I'm getting ready, I don't really drink water its a healthy alternative and a great pick me up.

Anyone that knows me, knows that I am VERY weird about this sort of thing, I will swim if I am in a hot country like Spain but not in the UK...weird I know!
12. Do you eat fries with a fork?
If I'm in a restaurant then yes but if I've grabbed a McDonald's and I'm curled up at home watching Netflix than NO!
13. What's your favourite moisturiser?
Believe it or not I really like the Tesco's own brand, I have dry skin but with an oily T-Zone and it didn't make me break out and helped balance my skin.

YES! I really do but only when I find the right person.

Obviously theres the ones like spiders...but honestly I'm afraid of loosing people, I've had many people taken away from me in my life and its the worst thing that could happen.
18. Do you bite your nails?
I used to when I was younger but I broke the habit!

Heaven- As I said I don't believe in god and I study Science, so I believe that when you die you're brain automatically thinks of something good as a response because all of you're organs are shutting down and that is 'heaven' or whatever you make it.

Chapter1...October Birchbox Review

                                         
 I decided to try out Birchbox's beauty box when I read and watched countless unboxing's of their products. At first I was extremely sceptical but recently I plucked up the courage and entered my details! This is my second month of receiving a box full of joy, and was very pleased with the contents so I thought 'hey why not blog it!' For those of you that have no clue about what I talking about I will explain, every month you get a box filled with beauty, hair and general pieces of loveliness. These are all catered to your profile they ask you about your skin type, hair type, favourite things and so on. I personally love this because it makes you feel special every time you open it, I turn into a small child on Christmas eve being able to open one present! So without further or do lets get on with the great unveiling of this months box entitled 'WORK IT!'


Firstly once I took of the lid I was stunned by a beautiful pink pouch which held all of my goodies!

After opening the pouch the first item I took out was Meaningful Beauty- Anti Ageing Wrinkle Smoothing Capsules. I personally don't feel the need for these as I am only 16 but I'm thinking that my Mum would love to give these a go! All of the items in the box are minis so you can literally try before you buy, the full size product costs £39.50

Sorry the picture isn't too good:)

The next item is Shaveworks- The Cool Fix. I love this product because it does really work! It claims to treat ingrowing hairs, razor bumps and after hair removal. This product comes into its own after I get my brows waxed, I have very thick brows so waxing produces lots of unwanted redness for me, but I just pop the cooling gel on after and it helps to cool down the skin also I love the smell it just reminds me of a lovely hot bubble filled bath. (If that description even makes sense hehe) The full size of this product costs £11.

Balance me is next with Cleanse and Smooth Face Balm, I have always been on the fence about face balms as for me I have very oily/combination skin and things like this tend to leave me with blemish after blemish....so far I haven't encountered any mountains on my face but then again I haven't been using this for very long so I will have to give you an update! One thing that puts me off about this product is the smell, it smells very organic which to me isn't very pleasant. The full version of this costs £20

This product was an absolute saviour to me, as the wind and the rain set in my lips were getting progressively cracked. It is of course Pixi's shea butter lip balm. As the lip balm contains shea butter it is very smoothing and nourishing on your lips, also it has a slight nude tint which means you can have a bare face and still rock it! The full size costs £8.

Next I received Hair Play Dry Wax from KMS California. As of yet I haven't tried any of these sort of products before as they tend to make my hair brittle and dry, but Ill give this ago and report back! The full bottle costs £15.

Lastly I got a handy little pen shaped as a lipstick which I think is super quite and will definitely be going in my handbag as a handy essential.

Overall I really enjoyed this months box, I think its a great way to discover new products. Especially when you get things you wouldn't have bought for yourself! I hope you enjoyed todays blog post, this is my first ever post and would love you to leave comments below and tweet me ideas for the next one!
