a day in the life of isolation

-
I have a feeling a lot of these posts are coming in the near future, from myself and other bloggers, as we are all doing pretty much the same thing: isolating (and if not, get insideeeee!!!!) This day in my life seems to be like the ones I’m having every day at the minute, which is basically not productive and very chilled.

Morning


Typically, I’m waking up anywhere between 8:30 and 9:30 and I don’t seem to move for a while! I just like taking the time in the morning to fully wake up and complete a lot of social media tasks as well as talking to my closest friends. When I’ve had enough, I get up, dressed and get some breakfast whilst watching a TV show (at this point it was Killing Eve). I made a cuppa (being the classic British individual I am), and just sat and read through a lot of blog posts as well as completing a few online tasks. Eventually I decided to get on with a little bit of coursework as I needed to do something productive and adding to it each day gets me closer to finishing!

Afternoon


I got lunch around 1, and just made scrambled egg on toast, which I ate in my kitchen with my sister. Just after lunch I got dressed into more weather-appropriate outfit, and went for my 1 permitted walk of the day with my sister. It was an odd walk: we were unsure on where to go, so we just asked our close friends ‘left, right or forwards’ and that mapped our route :)). We ended up doing a lap round our local park which was really nice, accompanied with music we played through my AirPods, it was nice to get out of the house. Once I was home, I had a snack, had a shower, chilled for a little bit and then prepped tea for my sister and I. I really enjoy cooking but I don’t get to do it enough, so I’m excited to get to university to cook every day!

Evening


After tea I decided to do a little bit of planning (blog and life) before making another cuppa, getting a snack and putting a film on and chilling on my bed! I decided to watch ‘Kingsman: The Secret Service’ which I have seen before, but wanted to watch again as I really enjoy action films, and Taron Egerton is just nice to look at ya know? I find chilling and calming down after a day is good to reset yourself and be ready for the next day.

summer skincare routine

-

Skincare is usually not something I care too much about, and as I do have pretty clear skin. However, I have wanted to have a routine in place, as I am trying to reduce the amount of break outs I have! I mean, what a great time to be writing this, considering I have just broken out with a few spots around my nose! I don't own a lot of skincare products, and its just because my skin rarely needs a full, deep cleanse, but these products I use on a daily basis. In the morning, I will only apply the last 3 products, just because I don't usually have a lot of time to focus on skincare! In the evenings, I start by taking off my makeup with the Garnier Micellar Water and a cotton pad, which thoroughly takes off my makeup, meaning I can skip the stage of cleansing. If I am feeling lazy however, I just remove my makeup with a makeup wipe. I then hydrate my face with the Mario Badescu Facial Spray, which helps my skin from not going dry in the summer months. This also gi

my piercings...

Hello and welcome back or welcome to my blog! Today I’m bringing a post I have wanted to write for such a long time, and has been some time in the making. Piercings are quite a big thing for me personally, and I have quite an extensive amount (currently I’m up to 9 on both ears, as of last Tuesday). I also wanted to write this post to give my reviews (and an added pain scale, 1 being low and 10 being high) to each piercing I have, in case anyone is doubting a piercing. This is something I am so passionate about, so I’m happy I can share this here! Left Ear My left ear is a lot more decorated than my right, as it holds 6 piercings in total. I love the way this ear looks, and it has taken a good year and a half to build it up. As I have my first and second lobe piercings on both ears, I will talk about all of my cartilage piercings on this ear. All of my helix/cartilage piercings were done locally at a piercing studio (which I shall not name for security reasons), and the majority

3 ways to make your spotify 'aesthetic'

-

Music is something that makes me so happy, and you find me listening to it a lot of the time (as I’m writing this I have my summer playlist on), whether that be with my airpods in and being respectful to everyone, blasting out my records, or just having a party in my room (this happens more often than not!). I use and update my spotify account regularly, and like to keep it as ‘aesthetic’ as possible, and there are ways to do this. I will link my spotify below if you’d like any inspiration 😊 1.       Update your playlists regularly. New songs are released weekly, and you can often find songs that you forget about but never add them to playlists. By updating playlists, it means you’re not having the same selection of songs on repeat, which can eventually get boring. As well as adding new songs, removing songs you don’t like as much anymore or don’t fit a certain vibe in a playlist, it can help you to enjoy some playlists a lot more, rather than having to skip so many songs before f
