Hello my lovelies!
It's that time of year again and as you may well know I flipping love Christmas, so here are some of my essential things I must do around this wonderful time!

1. Have a cosy Christmas blanket. This is the perfect things for when it is cold outside and you are all snuggled up watching a very christmassy film! which leads me onto...

2. Buy Christmas films and watch them repeatedly! Some suggestions are:
Elf! The Grinch! The Night Before Christmas!

3. Buy quality hot chocolate and squirty cream and marshmallows! for the ultimate Christmas experience proper hot chocolate is an absolute must! There is nothing better to warm yourself with!

4. Make sure you have nice wrapping paper. It's no good having amazing presents if your wrapping isn't up to scratch. (I don't think this matters too much buts it's nice if it's wrapped all pretty) Paperchase always do great wrapping paper and Christmas cards!

5. A Christmas Onesy. I don't think I should explain it but I will, after Christmas day and all you want is to lounge in front of the TV a Christmas onesy is probably essential for this as that Christmas jumper is probably covered in more turkey than you would care to admit.

6. Listen to your Christmas music. It always makes me feel so happy when I listen to Christmas music I just want to dance around even though I actually can't dance (it's so embarrassing). Michael Buble is my fave!

7. Have a Christmas Party. This doesn't have to be a crazy party just invite a small group of the people you love and chill with them eat food and watch a christmas film and play games with them in your favourite Christmas wear.

8. Christmas is a time for family and friends so just enjoy being around the people you love and who love you. Try and leave behind all negative feelings for the season and just be jolly like Santa. Decorate your tree and put your family before friends don't miss out on putting up the tree or decorating the house because of your friends, spend time with the people who will always be there and love you!

I hope you all have a great time preparing for Christmas!
You all deserve to have an amazing time!
Much love <3

Hello my lovelies,
Todays post is my skin care routine, I have really sensitive skin so have to be super careful with what I use. I hope this helps some of you enjoy!
First thing in a morning I wash my face with warm water and dab dry with a towel this leaves my skin feeling a little bit fresher. (I take my make-up off at night with some make up removing wipes)
Secondly I will apply a decent amount of Simple's "Kind To Skin Purifying Cleansing Lotion" onto a cotton pad and rub it in.

 I find this really gentle on my skin and I really like how it is un-scented, this also comes with a toner and I used to use that aswell but it started to burn my skin!


After I have rubbed it all in I will put a cotton wool pad under the hot water tap and wipe my face with this again. (This isn't necessary I just find it works best for my skin) Again after this I will dab my skin dry with a towel.

To finish off my face I moisturise with No7's "Beautiful Skin" day cream for normal to dry skin as this helps cover me if I'm having a bad skin day. I leave this to sink in for 5-10 minutes depending on how much I've used and then do my makeup. 


I hope you're all having a great week. 
25 days until Christmas! 
Much love <3
