Botanics - Hydrating Night Cream 'All Bright'


Hello Lovelies

For me having problem skin is one of my most annoying features. For me its having dry skin which has turned slightly sensitive and worst for me flaky

Botanics 'all bright' hydrating night cream contains hyaluronic acid and hibiscus to brighten and well moisturise your skin whilst you sleep.



'All Bright' has a thick consistency for a moisturise which I admit smells amazing which feels like a serum when you apply it to your skin, its not too heavy and soaks in to the skin quickly not leaving a grease feeling which I find with quite a lot of moisturisers


After using this for two weeks I have noticed a substantial change in my skin its a lot softer and smoother and less flaky over all my skin feels revived and not as sensitive.

Botanics 'All Bright' Hydrating Night Cream usually retails in Boots at £4.99 but Boots tend to have a few offers on each month which helps a lot!

Motivational Monday #1

Hello Lovelies
Thought I would share this quote with you! I saw this the other day when I was having a particularly crappy day for work to home life. This quote just made me smile!
I have been having a lot of personal issues recently which I have found made me really depressed and lonely and I am still in this frame of mind to be honest. I recently have been coming home from work and either go straight out to my other job or sit in my room and watch netflix's. I am not the most social of people so writing this blog is a challenge for me as I know people will always judge me and have bad things to say.
But this quote has made me think about myself and life and to always take the positives out of life even if they are bad!
Anyway back to work I must go!

Working Two Jobs and still having Fun

Hi All,
 
So as the title suggests this post is about working two Jobs but still having fun and being able to do things outside of working.
 
I have always had a job since the age of 16 as I always wanted to be able to afford to buy clothes and pay my parents some rent.I have had a second job for just over a year and this is mainly to pay my dad back who was kind enough to lend me money when I was in a sticky situation.
 
I working in the day in a 8am - 5pm job with a 45 minute break, but I usually arrive at work at 7.30-7.45am. I work most evenings as a Waitress and one day at the Weekend in a Spa Restaurant. Dont get me wrong I enjoy both of these jobs but it is very tiring leaving my flat at 7.30am and not coming back until around 10.30pm-11.00pm.
 
A lot of people ask me about having fun and time for myself, but I do get time, working at the spa has its benefits for me from discounts on treatments to being able to use the Gym and Spa whenever I require.
I also enjoy watching a good film or two and I will usually watch these once home and on my laptop. I get home from work and the first thing I do is jump in the bath and have a 10 minute relax there then on to my laptop for a good Disney Film!

I also get to spend time with my parents which is quality time in its own right! From dog walking with my mum to pamering and meals out.

I just wish I had a few more hours each day to do my youtube channel as this is one of my main ambisitons. I will never be big on youtube but its all about trying right?

Anyways I best get back to work
