I often get questions about how I get my hair like it is or how I care for it. Being naturally curly, my hair is very dry so I need to choose products that calm frizz and inject moisture. It's taken me a while but I think I've finally found the right hair care routine for me and I'd like to share it with you all.

Since I've been working in America all summer, I haven't blogged much at all. I have a rotten cold right now and look far too snotty for any form of make-up based or outfit post so thought I'd do a quick post of some bits and pieces I've purchased recently. Basically, I should be doing dissertation reading but I'm trying to think of every possible excuse not to come to terms with the fact my final year at university has started...

Primark these past few months has been soooo good! the gems in Primark do sometimes take a little hunting to find, a little waiting for your size and a lot of patience and persistence! 

I find myself shopping at Primark more than ever these days, especially since I'm a student. I think the quality has vastly improved since they started out, my dad (who is a complete Primark hater) actually complimented on a dress I bought the other day!

Here's hoping you enjoy my haul and find something you may like yourself.

Some of the items I bough a few weeks+ ago, so prices are estimates.

I was lucky enough to be gifted the Magnitone Pulsar, an advanced daily skincare brush. You may have read my introduction to the Pulsar review, I apologise if I repeat any of the information or opinions in this final review of the product. The difference with this review is that I am writing this at the end of my 7 day challenge, having used the Pulsar morning and evening, applied fake tan and used the Pulsar for removing excess tan.  

Summer is coming! And your hair can also make the most of those summer months! When you read this post, you'll either be like "duh, everyone knows that" or completely amazed, I'm thinking...

You're probably aware of the increasingly different types of earrings that are around today. From the traditional chandelier to the new craze of the dermal punch jewellery. But what suits us best? This post is going to look at some hoops, studs and cuffs which I was lucky enough to be sent from Touchstone Accessories to blog about. So this is the start of my blogging collaboration using this set of samples. Today's post will explain the simple art of choosing the right earrings to complement your style, complexion and face shape! When buying earrings, we probably tend to pick up anything that we initially like - of course there is nothing wrong with this! But if you want to make to most of your facial features with the help of earrings, read on..

I got this adorable journal for my birthday this year. I asked for it after seeing it on Instagram (where else) and thought it was a really cute way to note down my thoughts. 

Tan accelerator? I like the sound of that! I came across this product called Eco Tan Accelerator on Amazon and the reviews were excellent and basically persuaded me to buy it. It claims to boost the melanin (something in your skin that changes the pigment of your skin) levels in your skin, hence helping you tan faster and making it last longer. 

I think I speak for 99% of the Instagram population when I say 'I need a Triangl bikini', right? They're terribly gorgeous, but also terribly expensive - especially for a student like myself (boo hoo). I'm not quite sure why I've never searched for dupes before, I guess I thought Triangl was so unique, it could not be replicated. I know high street shops like River Island and Primark have made their own versions with piping and similar materials, but still these didn't quite match my love for Triangl. I came across a blogger (I completely forgotten her name, I feel awful!!) and I was having a little feed stalk (as you do) and tapped on, what I thought was a photo of her Triangl bikini - it wasn't! It was dupe! Omfg omfg omfg, a new door had been opened! I immediately found her post on her blog about the dupe and found out how I could get my hands on a Triangl dupe.

OOOOOOOMMMMMMFFFFGGGGGGGG I GOT THE JOB

This e-mail was such a surprise!!! I'd been invited to a regional recruitment event! 

I was pretty happy!
