As you all know, I have been gone for way too long, these past few weeks have felt like years to me and I miss blogging way too much. I've tried to keep you updated as much as I can on here, my Youtube channel and on twitter, but with no internet and very little 3g on my phone it has been difficult.
If you've been away for longer than I have, then you may not know that I have moved out and I am now living on my own, I've finally flown the nest! But I still don't have internet in my new house, but hopefully within the next few days I will have.
I also have a new laptop, finally! I've mentioned too many times how terrible my laptop was, with it being sent away for repair more times than it was actually with me.

I will be back to daily blogging as soon as my internet is turned on, and I will also be uploading daily youtube videos, and obviously tweeting way too much as per usual!

Thank you guys so much for understanding how hard it is for me to be posting in this crappy situation but all will be back to normal as soon as I can get it that way.

Byeeeeeeeee.

Slim Fruits Review

Slim Fruits sent me these products to review, as always the views are my own and all that jazz!

I also did a video on these, check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1GJuTqRT1A&list=UUof08et9DP7sMC8-nqq-ZUg

These are 'Slim Fruits' they are basically healthy sweets, what more could you want really?! As you all know I am trying to be as healthy as I can, and with that I am trying to eat less sweets which I find so hard as I have a real sweet tooth. These yummy little devils (or angels should I say) are just fab. Each sweet is 2 calories and contains the same amount of fibre as six slices of wholemeal bread, and a serving is 5 sweets. It takes around 20 minutes to make you feel fuller - so try not to nibble while you wait, but when it hits it actually works. I was a bit reluctant and didn't expect much but these little gems have really surprised me! They are especially handy for work when you are super hungry but can't eat as they make you feel that little bit better, and they're enough to keep me going until I get home. They are only tiny little things, so try not to eat loads at once, just stick to the 5 you're meant to have! They are also sugar free AND fat free, how do these things even work?! I can't answer that for you, but I really wish I could. Things this good for you rarely taste this yummy. All I know is it comes from Acacia Tree Gum which is known for slowing digestion and lowering 'bad' blood cholesterol. These would be perfect for a calorie controlled diet, or just someone like me trying to be a bit healthier.

If you are interested in purchasing these you can get them in Boots or Holland & Barrett for £1.89, and the packs are full to the top, none of this 'half air' situation. If you want to contact Slim Fruits you can do via twitter at @slim_fruits

Pop Up Cards Review

If you haven't yet seen my video on Hannah Kokoschka's Pop-Up Cards then you can check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-zmU3GJbEE&list=UUof08et9DP7sMC8-nqq-ZUg

Hannah sent me these to review, I didn't pay for them however all views are my own, you guys know I'm not going to tell you that something is great if I don't believe that it is.

I know you're probably thinking, pop up cards, what? Well these cool quirky cards are as simple as that. Remember when you were little there were loads of cool pop up books? Think of that but in card form and not with cute little bears or anything (although that would be quite cool?)
These mix the child inside with the adult you are, sometime you have to send cards, whether it be a birthday, anniversary or even moving into a new house. These are something with just a little extra to them.

Hannah's work has been quite rightly praised by many people, and featured in a number of amazing magazines including Elle Decoration Magazine! The prices range from £3.50 to £25, dependant on the amount of detail.street market £7.99. They are extremely British themed, with most of them focusing on London, which I think is also a great gift for a foreign friend/tourists.

The ones she sent me were the heart, taxi, London street and bicycle. If you want to see me playing around with them then check out the link above.

Check her out at hannahkokoschka.com or @hannahkokoschka on twitter.

Boohoo Dungaree's

This post is no way sponsored by Boohoo nor was I asked to do it (although if Boohoo fancy sponsoring me, that's cool...? no okay)

So as it is super hot at the moment in the UK, I thought I would sort out my wardrobe and try to find some more summer clothes, living in England I don't tend to have a great deal, we only usually have 3 nice days a year, I'm not used to needing so many outfits. At the back of my wardrobe I noticed my old dungaree's, they've been neglected for two years now, and my legs are slightly bigger than they were when I used to wear them.
So today I thought I would show you a few ways I used to wear my dungaree's, however I will be using website images rather than images of me in dungaree's, as I said my legs are slightly bigger than they used to be, haha!

Dungaree's £25

LA Tee £12

Jelly Sandals £12

Round Frame £10

Hand Chain £5

89 Tee £10

Skater Slip ons £18

Pink Wayfarer £6

Stone Ring Stack £6

Bralet £8

Platform heel £35

Leopard Print Retro £10

Multi Stack Ring Set £6

I hope you enjoyed this post and it gave you a bit of inspiration for how to wear those dungarees, or at least it shows you how I would wear them!

Botanicals Face Polish Review

The Botanicals team sent me this product to review, but all views are my own, as always. I'm not going to lie about a product to you guys.

I also did a video on this product, you can check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOES8JFZ5qI&list=UUof08et9DP7sMC8-nqq-ZUg

So firstly, this was the nicest packaged product I have ever received. It was in an envelope, inside the envelope was this cute little bag with 'Botanicals' written on, inside that was brown tissue paper with dried roses in, inside that was bubble wrap and then inside that was my product. This might sound like a bit of hassle for me, but it really wasn't. It was just so lovely that they had gone to all the effort to make it look so good for me.

But onto the product! I chose the Rose and Camellia Face Polish which is a 'gentle exfoliating cleaner with crushed rosehip kernel to brighten dull and dehydrated skin and restore moisture balance.' It smells like a spa, I'm not sure if I always get the same product used on me when I go for a facial but my gosh this stuff smells just like it, if you can imagine that amazing spa smell, you know what I mean! 

Is it really really smooth, I was a tad worried it would be too harsh for my skin as some exfoliators I find are quite harsh however this really was the opposite. My skin felt so smooth and I didn't even feel like I was exfoliating. 

When I put it on, my skin felt slightly greasy which panicked me as my skin really cannot make up it's mind whether it want to be super dry or super oily. It washed off really easily and my skin felt great, not greasy at all - panic over!

The thing I like most about this product is a tiny bit goes a long way, at £19.95 a pot this is something that is really important to me. I don't mind spending money on an item if I like it and it will last but I find with some products you have to lather it on and it doesn't spread and you end up getting 3 uses out of it, but this product looks like it will last me a long time!

I would really recommend this product, and I will definitely be purchasing a few more Botanical products after my next pay day!

My First Milestone

So in the past week or so I've hit 1,000 followers on twitter AND 5,000 views on here, and I am 4 views off 4,500 views on my Youtube channel. I know to some this seems like nothing, but to me it is a crazy amount.

I started my blog and Youtube channel as a get away for me, it is my little space where I can say and do what I want and just escape the world for a little bit, if that makes any sense to you guys.
I know I have been beyond rubbish with being poorly for the past few weeks, getting a new job and working all the time and my laptop constantly breaking on me, and now with me attempting to move house I fear that I'm not making time for doing the things I love. I promise that I will though.

I just want to thank every single one of you that reads my blog, whether this is the first time you are reading it or you are a regular visitor - such as my sister who I regularly receive texts off saying 'THERE IS NO NEW BLOG POST UP YET TODAY?!' and I am so so grateful to all of you. If it wasn't for you guys I wouldn't have got some of the opportunities I have got, and hopefully there is a lot more in the future.

There will be a new blog post AND video up every single day for the next week as an apology for being so rubbish recently, I hope you enjoy.
