How to Get Rid of Clutter

Hey everyone,

They say you can tell a lot from a person by how they keep their house. And most of the time this is true but lets make it even easier we won't look at the whole house, better? How about we only look at one room. Okay good we're to know you more now...

Lets look at your chest of drawers.... damn!

Unfortunately this is a very familiar sight and we quickly just learn to deal with it and carry on. But seriously this is nuts, the draws can bearly close and it's only a matter of time until the bottom of the draws starts bowing. Clearly I have too much going on here.
The picture above is all the stuff that come out of one draw 

I found the best way to start is the clear out the space your working on. When your home is filled with clutter, trying to tackle a mountain of stuff can be quite overwhelming. I found being ruthless was the only way, if I haven't worn it in a year its got to go!

Where do you start when you want to declutter?

For underwear, even if I folded it super neat it would slide around through daily section, so had to come up with a better solution.

I came across these awesome Drawer Dividers from MIU COLOR, which have made things so easy. Huge thumbs up on price only £12.99

After removing over 50 items of underwear this is the result. What an improvement! I even has compartments to spare.

Now when I open my drawers I see exactly what I have, this is also a great way to control myself buying things I don't need. These are beautifully sized with enough pockets to fit all the tiny bits of clothing I have. The outer frame is sturdy, so should do me right for some time. The colour is neutral enough to blend in with whatever your wardrobe might look like.

The different sized compartments make it easy to store bras, panties, socks even items such as boxed jewellery, perfume bottles and most things that get stuffed into a drawer.

I am so happy with these, I can't wait to get into the rest of my drawers and start organizing. Officially my biggest bargain of the year - so far...

Cracked Dry and Peeling

Hi everyone,

Can you believe we are in the middle of the year already? The time of year we get foot confident and wear sandals and show off our feet. This is quite a disgusting post so I feel I should warn you I'm going to show a few yucky pictures.

So I'm sure you guys have come across a type of foot mask that promises smooth and baby-like soles after using? I've always thought my feet were in quite good condition in terms of softness but I've always wanted to try. There are various brands out there but the one I decided to use was Exfoliating Foot Mask Papaya & Chamomile Extract - At less then £5 why not?

This product claims It removes all calluses, over time, visibly smoothing your feet within 2 weeks.

Simply apply the mask socks for 60 - 90 minutes and rinse off. If you have things to do around the house my tip would be to cover masks with large socks so they stay on or chill out watching your favourite shows. 

For a while I didn't see a difference, but then on the seventh day.

PEELING OFF!

Once you notice the first signs of peeling, soak your feet in warm water for a minimum of 30 minutes to loosen up the dead skin so that it can be rubbed off easily to reveal baby smooth skin! 

It is very disgusting i know but let me tell you it was also ultimate pleasure peeling off those dead skin i kid you not. I feel a snake, shedding away.

As tempting as it is you cannot pick the loose dangling pieces of skin on your soles, my tip is to soak your feet in warm water (or take a shower!), and then put lots of moisturising lotion, and give it a gentle rub. All the dead skin will come off without you using force.

Overall I have enjoyed this experience and the results have been better then expected, my feet really do feel beautiful and soft. My only regret is that I did not do it in the cooler months as I'm wasting sunny 'sandal' days and the UK they don't come that often!

Thanks for reading, take care.

Ughh! What's On Your Face?

Hi everyone,

I've been quite fortunate over the past few years to have clear skin, not that I did anything special. I'd often try different products not because I needed too but to see what works for me and how it feels. But it wasn't always this way, my teens was a constant battle with these disgusting spots coming out of my face. Now for some reason there are back! Least to say I ain't having it.

Memories of my youth came flooding back, when just touching my forehead feels like I'm rubbing up a kebab. Yet parts of my face (mainly my cheeks) are crazy dry? Now I certainly do not claim to a beauty guru or any of the jazz, I'm just a normal girl with for now a spotty oily/dry face.

I rarely rave a products but this one is so lovely I'm going to. Biore Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser has been an absolute life saviour, I love this product!

 The formula leverages Skin Purifying Technology that addresses the needs of combination skin, whilst providing an all-over clean without stripping skin's natural moisture. Personally I really like the soft thick texture. After application there is no stickiness or oily residue, my skin feels soft and hydrated.

Also, application is so easy...

On a clean wet face, pump the cleanser into hands and work into a form. Rinse thoroughly.

The result?

Instantly rejuvenated, hydrated skin

Hope you guys find this helpful. Biore Combination Skin Balancing Cleanser can be find at Superdrug and selected departmental stores and major hypermarkets, for about £4 - Bargain! ;)


Take care!

MCM London Comic Con

Hey everyone,

So last weekend I went to the London Comic Con, I have been wanting to go to this for ages and just never got round to it. Although it was a last minute thing I was determined to go, and I'm really glad I did - I had a great time. For those who don't know basically its a convention that brings together movies/TV, games, anime, comics and loads more. There was screenings and special guests from 'Once Upon a Time' and 'Teen Wolf'. The perfect place to embrace your inner 'geek'.

On the show floor there is a huge variety of merchandise stalls from the UK and around the world, from cute cuddy Totoro toys to those hard to find items.

Here are a few cute bits and pieces I found. The below are quite girlie things but there was more masculine things available too like Samurai/replica swords for example.  

As cute as these things are I think they went a bit crazy on the price!

These iPhone covers are so cute - I don't have an iPhone though

What I really like about being there was that there was such a huge variety of people, long gone is that annoying stereotype that people who enjoyed anime and games are 'friendless, weirdoes that barely see the light of day'. You had older people, younger people, white, black, Asian people - everyone was there and it was such a friendly atmosphere. You could literally go up to anyone and ask for a picture with them or just start a conversation.

Me and hot Dante - hehe :)

Here are a few other cosplay guys I came across. I would to give it a go myself one day, but If I did, I would want to be amazing or there is just no point. But I really admire the effort these guys put in, they look great.

Ahh Sailormoon! How I used to love Sailormoon :)

So I hope you've enjoyed this post and maybe next year I'll see you there. I'll finish this post with a nice chill out picture of the Marvel and DC crew lol. 

Thanks for reading x



Supermarket Goodies

Hey guys,

We here in the UK are so lucky right now, the weather is gorgeous!

Beautiful blue sky :)

Seriously I can’t believe this is October, I mean c’mon our summer wasn’t even that good.

I thought I’d show you guys a few things that I’ve pick up recently that I’m loving. Check these little beauties out!

I really needed a jumper, cause around this time it starts to get cold so I wanted something that wasn’t too thick to like a light day jumper. And this one from Tesco’s works a treat the color and pattern are so cute for that preppy-look and the quality is really good and soft. And to top it off the sleeves are lovely and long, which is something thing that I normally straggle with. Buy Jumper from Tesco

I also picked up these gorgeous loafers, aren’t they cute. I wanted a pair of day-shoes because living in converses all the time just doesn’t work. Anyways back to the loafers really comfortable and as if by magic when they are on they make my feet appear small and cute. This was my first time buying clothing from Tesco and I am impressed (every little helps indeed!) :)

Continuing on through my supermarket sweep ASDA do a decent pair of plain black leggings, this is actually my third time buying these. Quality-wise really good, they hold their color well, they don’t bobble and they don’t gather at the knees. And most importantly they are NOT see through! (this is a big problem with leggings these days).

As you can probably tell I’m a make-up novice but I am really liking this All Over Face Brush from Avon. Very good quality and well made. It doesn't drop any bristles and is soft and silky so feels lovely on your face when applying powder. I think It is a bargain even at full price but if it's on an offer you should go for it! I would defiantly recommend it. Buy All Over Face Brush from Avon

I haven’t really been buying much recently, these days things are getting quite expensive but if I do see a bargains I’ll defiantly share with guys (^_^)

Bye x

M&M's World

Hey guys,

Yes another blog, but this one is real quick. Just finished my lunch break and while I was out on my wonders I spotted the new M&M's World Store in Leicester Square.

 Today is the opening day so loads and people and hyperactive staff flying around. I know its their jobs to look/be friendly and fun but omg it is so annoying when they’re in your face, I felt like I was in the bloody Apple Store. *you have to fight them off with a stick in that place’. Anyhoo the actual place was really colorful and fun, with loads of photo opportunities like the M&M’s version of the ‘Beatles’ walk, London bus etc. However in terms of content it really is shit, it has  things that may seem cool at the time, by the time you get home – what do you do with it? They did have this bit downstairs were there were load of different colored M&M's

Look at all the different colors - ok that is pretty cool

hmm...

So this is just a quick review guys, talk to you soon x
