In another life I think that I would have really enjoyed being a dermatologist. Specifically a professional pimple popper. But as I have already outstayed my welcome as a student, rather than 6 more years study, I get my kicks from popping my own pimples. You can purchase blackhead poppers from any basic beauty store, and they are the best […]
A few weeks ago, I set up a question poll on Instagram and asked people to state their assumptions about me and/or my PhD journey…. “Your PhD journey feels like a duck on a pond. Calm to the eye, frantic below the surface” This is 100% true. I know that the person who wrote this also has a PhD, […]
I am always looking for small changes that I can do to minimise my waste, and one thing I have recently switched to is reusable make up cloths. I purchased mine from Green + Kind, in a pack of 5 that came in a super cute mesh bag. They work really well with just a little bit micellar water. They […]
I have shared my love for The Ordinary Skincare previously on this blog. The products are cruelty free, very affordable, and effective! For that reason, I have had my eye on the AHA30% +BHA 2% peel ever since I saw it on…. TikTok (obviously an incredible reputable source). It was hard to get my Aussie hands on the product but […]
** In Collaboration ** There’s often nothing more terrifying than the thought of having to try and sell yourself at an all important interview, as it’s your only opportunity to get your message across whilst proving to your potential future employer that you are the right candidate for the job. Preparing for such an interview needn’t be a difficult task, […]
My personal view on bathrooms is the more plants and art the better! I purchased this cute piece from RedGateArts on Etsy. There are so many colourful pieces from this artist that I am already eyeing off a few more.
**In Collaboration** Giving your family the best start in life is something everyone thinks about at some point in their lives, either before you decide to start a family or as your family grows. It is only natural to want the best and providing your family with the best can come in many different ways. Savings We all need a […]
**In Collaboration** Privacy can be very important for many people, but it’s not always a given depending on where we live. Furthermore, sometimes privacy is a more abstract idea, such as dealing with how your in-home devices track your activity. If privacy is important to you and your family, how can you add it to your home without curating a […]
I recently hit 10k followers on Instagram, which is something I honestly never thought would happen. I started this blog and the accompanying Instagram four years ago- and wow has it grown. Whilst ‘followers’ on Instagram and views on the blog are superficial to many, to me it is humbling to know people engage with my content. I wanted to […]
My vision for the main bathroom is jungle x gallery. There are currently ten plants and three pieces of art, and I am not done yet (with art that is, plants are done!). I wanted to get a bright bath mat and found the cutest one from a brand called Sage X Clare– they have heaps of options. It is […]
