I LOVE makeup and I know you don't need to spend your money on expensive products. I've tried a lot of drugstore options over the years and I have SO many favorites. I switch between a few different makeup looks, ranging anywhere from a really natural look to full glam. I have combination, acne prone, sensitive skin. I hope you love them as much as I do🫶:

I had bad acne on my face and back. I got bullied because of it at school and in summer I would never wear tops or dresses that showed my back, I was so conscious of it. Acne knocked my confidence totally, I know what it's like to have acne it's a struggle. It took me YEARS to find things that actually work. Fast forward to now and I have clear skin(I do still get breakouts but mostly when it's time of the month). I want to share with you all what worked for me because I want to help others who have acne. TIPS: Keep your hair clean, if you apply products using your hands make sure your hands are clean, don't pick at your spots, shower daily, wash towels, bedding, sheets and clothing regularly, wear loose fitting breathable clothing made from cotton wherever possible and avoid fabric softener. This list is EVERYTHING that helped to clear my skin(products and tips). I really hope they help you as much as they helped me and remember we are all beautiful and we need to be kind to ourselves 🤍

I have tried and tested a lot of beauty dupes over the years. I do LOVE a good dupe, who doesn't love to save money?! I genuinely believe that a lot of the time we pay for the packaging from high end brands. I found so many dupes that work just as well if not better than the high end ones! I love a bargain but I love it even more when the products are incredible. Here I am sharing with you the products that actually are dupes!!!(everything in this list I have tried the real version of as well):

I like to switch my skincare routine up, it's SO important to do that to prevent our skin from getting used to the products and to stop them from not working! These products are must haves if you want hydrated, glowy, soft skin. I have sensitive, combination, acne prone skin. These are my favorite affordable skincare products that have never let me down:

Personal hygiene is a priority for me, I have a huge collection of different products that I use in the shower. I love so many different scents/products and I switch between them. A shower always makes me feel so much better about myself. I have sensitive skin so it's been a long journey to find products that don't irritate me. I have included a mix of the affordable and high end products that I use for you all. In this list I have shared some of my favorite products that are in my collection and trust me they leave you smelling soooooo good!! 😍

Let's be honest we don't always have lots of time to do our makeup, wether that's because you're a busy mom, got up slightly too late for work or you're just in a rush & need to get ready as quickly as possible so you're not late to the plans you have! I have combination, acne prone, sensitive skin. Below I have put together a quick & easy makeup routine for a full coverage look & for a natural look to cater to all as I know we all have different preferences, I have included skin prep too. These products I trust as I have used them all myself. Hope it is helpful! 🥰

I watched so many YouTube videos years ago as they was that many tools available for self care I had no idea where to even start! I thought are these even necessary & do they even work?! I tried SOOO many different self care tools & I was so wrong, they do work & they are worth every penny! In this list below are all the tools I have that do actually work & have made a big difference to my self care routine & have genuinely helped my makeup application, skin, body, health & hair. I could never be without them now, I hope you enjoy them as much as I do🤍

Ready to upgrade your wardrobe? This list is full of my favorite fall essentials (my favorite time of year). There’s just something about chunky knits, boots or trainers, loungewear sets, scarves, a warm cozy coat, little accessories and even a cute phone case 🍂. I love everything about cozy season, the gorgeous colors and fashion pieces are so stylish and classy. I love creating my autumn wardrobe, layering staple pieces and adding little touches to tie everything together. This list is packed with my must have fall items I own, as well as pieces that are on my wishlist, from day to day casual looks to night out outfits 🤎

All of my designer inspired items are from DHgate(I do invest in real designer pieces sometimes but most of the time I buy the dupes). I've ordered from them for many years now and so has my partner, everything we've purchased has been good quality and looks the same as the real version. When I shop on there I always check sellers and the reviews then if I'm still unsure I message the seller directly to ask for more pictures of the item before I purchase! If you love the look of designer items but don't want to pay the prices then I've got you🤝. I have put a lot of effort into finding the best dupes for you all(it's took me absolutely ages lol). I hope it helps and I hope it saves yous scrolling. It's giving baddie on a budget 😉😍

Christmas is the most magical time of the year and gift giving is my love language. Need inspiration for the perfect gifts for the females in your life? These gifts are sure to put a smile on any woman's face this Christmas. I know sometimes we can be unsure what to get somebody so it can be a stressful time. I hope this list takes the stress away and gives yous inspo for what to get your loved ones this year. These are my top picks for all the women in our lives 🎄🎁

Who doesn't love a gift set for Christmas?! They are the perfect gift for family/friends or to treat yourself! I have shopped around to see what the best gift sets are this year & most importantly the ones that are actually worth the money. I've tried my best to include something for everybody, to include as many different brands as possible to suit everyone & to include options for all different budgets. In this list is the best gift sets of 2025(in my opinion)😍:

My ULTIMATE Amazon must haves(pets, homeware, cleaning, beauty, clothing & more!). These are the products that have made my life easier and that I couldn't be without. I hope they're as useful to you as they are to me and I hope you find some new favs too 😍
