Bedroom inspiration

My bedroom is my haven.
Its where i go to relax and clear my mind of all the bad things that happened that day. I tend to spend a lot of time in my room, whether its doing homework, or watching something on my laptop, so this is why I ABSOLUTELY LOVE designing my room and deciding what would look nice in it. 


I recently moved house and was super exited to be able to redesign my room and start off with a blank canvas again. My main Inspiration for my room was tumblr. The minimalist, artsy rooms that had a couples of cactuses, fairy lights and windows. TYPICAL


     

        
          

SKIN CARE

January Skin Care 



This product is a really affordable Micellar water that's great for removing make up and cleansing the skin. Unlike other liquid cleansers it doesn't irritate the skin or cause hyper-pigmentation and redness.

Although this isn't yet available in the UK you can find it online or in some shops in mainland Europe. We both use this before applying our makeup in the morning and after we have removed  our makeup in the evening, however this product works equally as good with a full face of makeup on. This facial spray would also be great in the summer to cool you down.

This eye cream works great at moisturizing your under-eyes, reducing the darkness and puffiness and making you look as though you've slept for 24hrs.


This hydrating toner helps absorb your moisturizer and eliminates the look of pores. 
it leaves your skin feeling smooth and fresh.

EOS lip balms moisturize your lips and it is an inventive new way to apply lip balm with its sphere-like shape. It come in many different flavors and colors.

☺HOW☺TO☺NOT☺BE☺SAD ☺

Hi everyone,
Todays post is how not to be sad, 
being a teenager, feeling sad is something that isn't rare.
I have come up with two tips over time that have helped us to stay happy when we are having one of those days. we hope they help some of you 

 

Number 1☺starting you day with a smile
try to smile for 20 seconds when you wake up, even if you have to force yourself. Its proven to make you feel happy for the rest of the day as difficult as it may be starting the day with exercise can also make you more ready for the day ahead, by exercise I 1000% do not mean waking up at 5 in the morning and going for a 5km run, no no no. By exercise I mean doing something as little as walking to school instead of taking the bus or doing a few sit ups / star jumps before breakfast. THINK POSITIVELY - if you start the day thinking it will be awful then chances are its going to be. You are going to pass that science test you hardly revised for you are going to get the last edible sandwich in tescos for lunch, you are going to have a fab day starting as soon as you wake up.

Number 2 ☺ don't stress
with sadness comes worries and stress, they can sometimes be the cause of the sadness altogether. For me personally I tend to worry about everything just as I falling asleep at night, and when your tired things seem 10 times worst than what they really are. Thats why I keep a small notepad and pen by my bed so I can write down the things I'm worried about. That way i have them out of my mind and onto the paper and i don't have to worry about them until the morning and by that time they don't seem so bad anyway.
