What i've been up to..

I feel like I've abandoned my blog lol Well i'm back and thought I would do an update to bring you all up to date with what I've been up to.

Well Firstly I've just finished my GCSE's which is a huge relief so I've finally left school for summer but i will be returning in September as I want to carry on my education in Sixth Form.

To celebrate the end of my exams i'm jetting off to Spain on Saturday for 2 weeks. I'm going with my best friend Maisie and we're staying at my nans villa. I'm so excited. The weather here is pants, so it will be nice to get away where there is really nice weather so i can finally get a natural tan. 

I cannot wait to have paella as it never tastes as good here. 

I've bought quite a few bits for my holiday so i thought in my next post i would do a haul but i'll have to use pictures of what i got from the internet as i may have explained in a previous post my camera got stolen therefore i am unable to take my own pictures.

Hope your all ok.

What's everyone been up to?

lots of love

Help! I have sensitive skin

Many people come to the conclusion they have sensitive skin due to products they are using which causes stinging, burning, redness or tightness, However dermatologists look for skin reactions so things like skin bumps, and very dry skin which doesn't properly protect nerve endings in the skin as well as a tendency towards blushing and skin flushing.

So, How do you know if you have sensitive skin?

Well firstly have a dermatologist  check your skin. This is the best way to find out  whether you have sensitive skin or whether something else is causing your skin condition.

What should i look out for if i have sensitive skin?

 Fragrance is the top cause of adverse skin reactions to beauty products.

If you are using anti-ageing products be careful of the retinol and alphahydroxy-acids  which are used.

Essential oils are believed to be calming but believe it or not, someone skins can't handle them.

Then there is alcohol, Many toners contain alcohol which strips your natural oils making your skin very dry and irritable.

There's also Sodium Lauryl sulphate which is used in many foaming products which can be drying and lastly there's over exfoliation, avoid gritty face scrubs and try not to exfoliate more than twice a week.

There are many products out on the market which aim to help sensitive skin. Here's a few that i think are worth checking out..

1. Clinique a different nail enamel for sensitive skins £12.

Although these are not 'new' and there are many other sensitive skin nail varnishes out there, The colours of these are amazing. At the moment there are only 12 shades, but there will also be a further 9 limited edition summer shades in 2013. They should be released in may.

2. St Tropez self tan sensitive bronzing lotion for face £22.

Now everyone can get that st tropez glow thanks to their new hypoallergenic range. 

3. Sampar velvet cleansing milk £16

This is now available at feelunique.com or in marks and spencers beauty department in may. 

4. Trilogy sensitive very gentle calming serum £28.50

This is a bestseller and has all the benefits people will sensitive skin love.

5. Lastly, La roche-posay nutritic intense riche £16

This is great for anyone with a very dry complexion.

Let me know what products you love if you have sensitive skin!

Lingerie shopping - my top tips.

Lingerie shopping can be really frustrating and let's be honest, most of us have no clue what we're really looking for. So today i'm going to be sharing my top tips with you, so that you can fully understand what you need to do to make sure you purchase the best for you, to help you feel sexy, attractive and comfortable.

1. Make sure your buying the perfect fit! -  whether you go to victoria secret, ann summers, la senza etc.. make sure you get the right fit. Take your time to get fitted correctly, as there is no point in buying something that you are never going to wear. Wearing the correct bra size lift's, contours and shapes your figure. I recommend getting fitted every 6 months at least.

2.Ensure the bra under your bust is level and snug, but not too tight. Many people are wearing a band size too big and a cup size too small!

3. Feel good in what your choosing! - chances are your buying your Lingerie with someone special in mind, if you don't feel comfortable in what you have selected then you aren't going to feel good wearing it for someone else.

4. Be in the mood to shop! -  although this seems obvious, how many times have you gone out shopping looking for some gorgeous outfit to wear out, only to fall out of your shopping mood because nothing works for you?  Lingerie is the only item that requires the right mood. Department store mirrors and fluorescent lighting don't always flatter your body.

5.If you don't feel comfortable shopping for this type of item in public then you can always buy online, order a bunch of items that take your fancy in a range of sizes and styles, try them on in your own home, but always check the returns policy so you can always return  whatever you decide against.

I hope this was help to you all!
