Healthy Breakfast Idea ♥

Today I am going to share with you my quick and easy healthy breakfast that I have on a day to day basis. I really enjoy this 'recipe' and I just love having it every morning as it fills me up till lunch time! My breakfast recipe consists of:
 ♥ 3 tablespoons of Greek yoghurt
 ♥ 3 handfuls of granola with raisins and nuts
 ♥ A variety of fruit like - strawberries
                                       - bananas
                                       - blueberries
                                       - apple
                                       - raspberries
                                       - blackberries
 ♥ A dash of honey on top
I absolutely love this breakfast idea and I would recommend it to everyone and anyone! I also like to serve this with a glass of orange juice or water to keep me hydrated :)
I hope you have enjoyed my recipe and stay tuned for more quick,easy,affordable recipes,

My Skincare Routine ♥

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog.Today I am going to talk to you about my skincare routine.
In my opinion I would not have the perfect most flawless skin,I break out in spots mainly around my chin every so often and I get very dried skin around my nose,forehead and chin...

The main products that I use in my skin are routine are Liz Earle Skin Products.
These products are absolutely amazing!! I have never found one fault in any of the products I have purchased off Liz Earle.

My Skincare Routine Consists Of:

• Using the Liz Earle Hot Cloth Cleanser to remove all of my makeup in the evening..
I find this product amazing as you can use it to remove all of your eye make up since it does not effect your eyes in any way!
Liz Earle-Hot Cloth Cleanser.


• I then take the Liz Earle Face Toner. I use this under my eyes,on my forehead and chin with two cotton pads..
This toner is very refreshing and after two weeks I defiently seen I difference,especially under my eyes!!
Liz Earle-Travel Size Toner.


•The last and finally product I use is the Liz Earle Moisturiser. I apply it to all of my face,ears and down my neck.. 
This Moisturiser is defiently by far my favourite product from Liz Earle. I use it twice a day and I feel so refreshed and moisturised for the full day and throughout the night!! I would deffinitely recommend this to any one of you!!
Liz Earle-Skin Repair Moisturiser.


That is really all I do for my Skincare routine.I hope you all enjoyed reading this Blog!

Beauty Favourites Of The Week ♥

Urban Decay-Lush Lash Mascara

This Mascara is by far my favourite mascara of all time! It is so moisturising while also making my eyelashes look long and full.The packaging of this mascara is also very cute and I am constantly getting complements on how lovely it looks and how fabulous my eyelashes look!! I would for sure recommend this to anyone who is looking for a good long lasting mascara :)
Catrice Costmetics-Liquid Liner

I love love love this liquid liner!! I never really wore liquid liners only for when I was going to special occasions beacause of how annoying and how long other liquid liners took me to get on but after I purchased this liner I couldn't wear it enough! It is long lasting,no smudges and glides on so smoothly. What I also love about this liquid liner is that it dries so quickly so, by the time you have finished your eye it is completely dry! Amazing and so inexpensive!! 

Catrice Cosmetics-All Matt plus Shine Control
Make Up

This is my most favourite foundation ever! It is the only foundation I use as it  matches perfectly to my skin colour compared to any other foundation. It is a very moisturising foundation while also giving you the
coverage you need :)
Catrice Cosmetics-Prime and Fine

This Prime and Fine Primer is and excellent primer. Its is very moisturising and it keeps your make up on for the full day. I first used it for a night out and I couldn't believe it when I came home that night that my make up was still perfectly on thanks to this primer,outstanding!! 




Hey Guys!! So I decided to do a 'Beauty Favourites Of The Week'. I just picked out my all time favourite beauty products that I absolutely love! As you can tell I am a really big fan of Catrice Cosmetics and Urban Decay as it is the only make-up branches I use. I just find their make up so good and long lasting and very affordable! Make sure to check out both Urban Decay and Catrice Cosmetic's Websites for fabulous deals!
More beauty Blogs to come :)

Changing My Life! ♥

Since January I have been trying to loose weight and to be honest it was certainly not a walk in the park. I was unhappy in my body and I felt everyone always looked down at me because of my weight.So,during my Christmas Holidays I decided it was time for me to change my whole life around. I was just so fed up about being so upset and unhappy in my body I knew it was time for a serious change. 

When the 1st of January came I walked down to my local gym and got a gym membership with my best friend Aoife. It was the best thing that every came into my life as it had changed it completely!! Now I'm not going to say you only have to do a exercise 7 days week,eat healthy 7 days a week and have no cheat days ever,It's knowing what your body can take and what it needs.(and plus everyone needs a cheat day) My routine was:
  • Eating clean every single day of the week for about 5 months 
  • Going to the gym 5 days a week 
  • While doing my own cardio/weights at the weekend.
I found this very difficult to get the hang of but after a few weeks I got it! Eating healthier and working out did not only change my appearance but it changed my: 
  • Energy Levels.
  • Organisation
  • Clearer Skin
Of course I had my off days where I didn't want to do any of my programme but I just kept thinking about if I don't stick to it I will just be the unhappy me and if I do I will be a happier person!! 
Now here I am nearly 2 stone lighter in a happier,healthier body. I have never been so happy in body till now,I find myself wearing more flattering clothes,doing more fun things with my friends and family and just living my life to the full while still eating right and exercising.
If you are trying to loose weight and are finding it tough keep going,think about how happy you will be and how amazing you will look!! 
Now is the time to change !!

First Blog Post!

Okay..So, today I decided I would start up a Blog. I have always wanted to for a long,long time and today I finally went 'You know what Anna? Just go for it!' So I did. I feel like a lot of people my age are really interested in making Blogs,Youtube channels,tumblers and so on but with the way our generation is going young people just do not seem to find the courage to as they feel like people would make fun of them,tease them for having it and just really take the piss out of them for having it which I think is absolutely ridiculous that people would actually take the time out of their day to tease someone like that.I feel like everyone should be able to do what they like and to be honest I think Blogging,You-tubing and all of that is so interesting!

One blogger that I absolutely love is Zoella.
I'm sure most of you have heard of her as she is a Youtube sensation with over 5million subscribers!! She is a true inspiration to anyone who wants to start a Blog or a Youtube as she herself came from rock bottom!
Every time I think to myself 'There is no point in me starting up a Blog,I'm not going to get anywhere with it.' I think of her. She has come to only having like 5 followers to have millions!!! Hearing this just keeps me going and pushes me to make the best Blog for everyone to enjoy.

My Blog is going to have a mix up of everything in it like Fitness,Beauty,Animals,Goals and Life. The main reason I decided to make a Blog was because I just loved the idea of sharing your thoughts and ideas with different people all around the world. I feel like having a Blog will also keep me organised as it will keep me up to date on my fitness routines,healthy eating what I done for the day and it will push me to do more exciting things as I would like to post them and share my days with you!

Anyway enough with my rambling on..My Blog post will hopefully be getting better and better throughout my time as I am just getting used to using it. I hope you guys have enjoyed my first Blog post and remember to follow me for more exciting Blog posts to come :)
