Hey guys! Today's article is about useful tips and tricks to do with hair. 1. Plait Your Hair Before Bed And After Showers! Not only does this keep it from getting tangled overnight, but when you take them out, it achieves beautiful, even curls that don't use heat or damage your hair. I find that dutch or french plaits work best, especially to get more curls near the top of your head. It looks especially nice with a far side parting! 2. Rinse Your Hair In Cold Water! Again, this works best straight after showers. If you dip or rinse the ends of your hair with cold water, it will help it grow longer, faster and healthier! 3. Avoid Too Many Products! Excluding products to wash your hair, it is best to use as little chemicals as possible. Over a long time period, this will damage your hair. Also too many products an make it greasy and not look nice anyway... 4. Don't Use Elastic Bands! Elastic bands, different to hair bobbles with material around them, are actu...

Heya guys! Today I’m going to tell you about... Everyday Makeup Hacks! And yes, it deserves capital letters. Hack 1: Put concealer underneath eyeshadow . This helps it to stay on longer, and makes the colour underneath more even so that the eyeshadow looks more even too! Hack 2: Put powder underneath lipstick. Very similar to the last one, to make lipstick stay on longer, (I've only done this once because it went away after a few hours) It might be an old trick but it actually works, any way, put on a coat of lipstick, then lay a tissue across you lips. Dust translucent powder on to make the color set so it stays on longer. Hack given by Blue Lake go follow! Hack 3: Mix your foundation with moisturiser . I have very pale skin, so a lot of cheap makeup brands don’t have foundation light enough for me, so I mix it on my hand with a little moisturiser- it also gives better coverage and helps it to last longer! You could also find a small plastic bottle and put a lot of bot...

Adios, hallo, bonjour, hey! Sorry I'm feeling in a really language-y mood - I just did my German and Spanish homework :P Back to this article. So I know that it can be really stressful trying to get all your homework done well, on time and without having meltdowns over it. I'm going to include lots of random homework hacks which will hopefully make it easier!  Like I say, these will be pretty random, so they range from revision techniques to printing out tricks. Enjoy! Not the homework, of course. No one enjoys homework! Although if you do, I am happy for you :) Revision 1. Use Flashcards! I find these the most useful for learning definitions and words, especially in other languages! I make mine myself, simply by cutting up paper and writing on both sides, but there are some apps or websites you can use that do it for you, for example cram.com or crava.com , which are my favourites, although you may find a better one which works for you. 2. Copy Things Out! Have y...

Hiya guys, and happy 2017!! It's finally 2017! Whoop whoop! I know everyone is saying how bad 2016 was, with all those celebrities dying, and Brexit and all that... but actually for me it was a pretty good year! I got my first boyfriend (and my first ex but that's a different story), started y8, got my braces, done lots of dance exams, and grew a lot personally and physically. Thinking back to this time last year, I can't believe how much I have changed! Do you make New Years resolutions? I do. Most people only make three, but, being me, I have to go that extra step. Last year I did 18, but this year I did 27. Yes. 27. It's probably because there's so much in my life that I want to change... I won't bore you with all of them but here's my 5 most important ones... •have more self confidence •try and make my friend Christian •get my forward walkover •get over £20 in my bank (that doesn't sound like much but I spend faster than Taylor Swift brea...

Heya guys x So I know how hard it is to write a blog that people will enjoy and follow, and if you are new to blogging it can be really difficult to find viewers.  Obviously I don't have very many followers yet but I have some knowledge which can help anyone looking for advice. I have been blogging for just under two years now and I have become more confident and comfortable in it and myself as time has gone on. So here are some tips on how to become more confident and better at blogging. 1. Be chatty People like a friendly person who makes them feel at ease and happy. Use language you would use normally, use it to impress your readers not your english teacher! It might help to pretend that you're talking to your friend, so that you feel more relaxed and more cheerful. 2. Post what your viewers want to see Your viewers are only going to read your blog if the content interests them. Mine is a lifestyle blog so I post a bit of everything, with a few areas that I know mo...

Hey people (please please please comment ideas of names for you guys🙏  ) Have you ever had one of those amazing friends who makes you smile 24/7 and you really cannot imagine your life without? I have. I do. In fact I'm having a sleepover with one now😊 She (lets call her Abi) is the one person I treasure the most in the whole world. I have known each other since we were 4 years old and ever since we have been the bestest friends in the whole wide world. I know this sounds really cringy but its true! However recently it feels like we're not such good friends anymore. Last year when we started year 7 we were put in separate halves of the year which meant that we weren't in any of each other's classes. Since then she has made a lot of friends in her classes, which of course is fine, but uses my group as a kind of backup. It feels like she only comes to us when there is no one else. Also I have a 2 year old sister (who to be fair is SUPER cute and adorable) who ...
