Face Cleansing


So, a couple of months ago I decided to buy the Boots Tea Tree Witch  Hazel face wash and face scrub! And it is honestly one of the best things that I have ever brought! I first brought these back in July and have only just emptied out the bottle. So that meant that I needed a re-stock. And since the bottle was full, I thought that it was the best chance to grab some blog photo opportunities off them!

Anyway, I first heard about these on YouTube. I first heard them from Lucy & Lydia. And then a few days later, I then saw Emily Canham mention them in one of her vlogs!

Because the formula of this product is a jelly, it is super soft on the skin, and you always feel like you face is really clean afterwards! And also, because this product is a Tea Tree product it helps reduce spots and leaves the skin shine free! Also, again, like I mentioned earlier, the product literally lasts forever, as you only need a pea sized amount! And it also smells amazing, as it has extracts of Berry!

These amazing face washes are on offer for three for two at the moment in boots, and in order to take advantage of that, I got the Black Charcoal Face Mask which was free!

Low Fat Banana Bread


Ok, so if you have been reading my blog since the very, very beginning then you will know that my first ever post was a low fat banana loaf. And if you have read the title of this post then you are probably thinking why on Earth, I'am blogging about the exact same thing. 

Well if you have been reading my blog since the beginning then I think it is fair to say, that I have progressed in my photography skills. And so because I feel that I have improved with my blogging ability, I thought that I would again share with you all my low fat banana recipe again. But instead, I also get the idea out that you can also toast this loaf aswell. However, depending what you put on it, it may add to the fat content, and may add a few calories, which if you were me, I would end up loading each slice with a large amount of Lurpack butter. I know healthy right! haha.





                 Difficultly; Easy Peasy                                       Prep Time; 10 minutes

                Cook Time; 40-50 minutes




Let's Do This!

You Will Need;

200g Self- Raising Flour
140g Caster Sugar 
1 1/4 teaspoon Baking Powder 
1/2 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
2 Egg Whites
3 Bananas (Mashed)
1 Tablespoon Of Golden Syrup for extra sweetness (this is optional)


In Order To Make The Banana Loaf You Will Need To;

 First, Preheat your oven to 180°. And then grease and line your 20x10 cm (8x4in) loaf tin

 Secondly, In a large bowl combine the self raising flour, sugar, baking powder and the ground cinnamon.
Add in the mashed banana and egg whites and combine.

Lastly, pour the mixture into a loaf tin and place in the oven for 40- 50 minutes.

And that's it! Once cooled you can then if you want to toast each slice for an extra crunch!

How To Display Polaroids


Ok, so since having my Polaroid camera I have to admit that I have millions and millions of tiny photos just laying around in my bedroom. This is because I have yet to find a creative way to display them all!

So, I have search the whole of Pinterest, and have found two amazing ways that enable me to display at least half of the amazing photos that I currently own!

And if you know me, then you will know that they both may or may not include FAIRY LIGHTS!

Anyway, let's get to the DIY'S!



Ok, so for the first DIY I thought that it would be an amazing idea to store most of my Polaroids in a big frame, which may or may not have fairy lights around it!

You Will Need!


  • 1x White Frame - The one I used was 20"x16" by 16"x12." But you can use whatever size frame to want.
  • Lot's and lot's of Polaroids!
  • Whatever type of Fairy Lights you want - I recommend using the small Christmas kind!
  • Some Super Glue - Make sure you get help with this, as you don't want to end up sticking your fingers together!
So, the first thing you will need to do, is to open up your frame and remove the picture that is on a loose piece of paper! Myn had a flower on it, but your's will probably have some family on it!

Next, you gonna want to get out the big piece of cardboard out of the frame and layout your Polaroids!

Once the Polaroids have been organised you can just stick them down carefully and with help if you need it!

Lastly, leave it to set for twenty minutes and then out the frame back together, then if you want to you can just add some fairy lights over the top of it!

Ok, so on to the second DIY;


You Will Need;

1x Set of fairy lights. 
1x Bag of tiny pegs. I got these ones from ESK!

Whatever Polaroids you want to use!

And the only thing you will need to do, is to attack the peg and one of your Polaroids to the wire in between each light!

And that's it, Your Done!
