Unpopular Opinion: Make-up & Cosmetics
Today's post is one that may be slightly odd, especially due to the fact that my make-up skills are probably less that Ron's "emotional range of a teaspoon" (Harry Potter references are sometimes a must!) In other words, I'm not a make-up or beauty guru. However, in my latest video, I give a brief history on make-up and then my personal opinion or 'relationship' with it. I could have gone into depth and had a massive debate about whether businesses simply steal our money or if in fact it is a way to empower women, but I decided to keep it short and simple (and also confusing...sorry!)
If you would like to watch it, I'll leave the link below! If the three minutes of me talking may bore you :P then here is the overall idea:
If make-up and cosmetics make you feel happier, and it works for you, then that's great! However, if you feel pressured to wear make-up or look a certain way, don't be ashamed to be outside of the stereotypical definition of beauty. As the cliche' saying goes, 'Be Your Own Kind Of Beautiful!'
P.S. Don't ever shame people for their choices (!!!!) - whether they decide to wear make-up and use cosmetics, or decide it isn't for them.
Take care,
Hana :) x

Mini Haul ♥
Hiya everyone. So here's a few things I got in town today.
Primark: The patterned trousers (£9) and the polka dotted mirror (£1).
Boots: I don't know the prices of them exactly as they were on offer, with the nail varnish and lip balm as a free gift! I'm not a beauty guru AT ALL...and quite frankly know very little about make up. However, I like these products, so here are the names of them:
♥ No7 lipstick (Moisture Drench - shade DIVINE - SPF 15)
♥ No7 nail varnish (Stay Perfect - shade DUCK EGG BLUE)
♥ No7 BB Lips (Beauty Balm - shade BLINK PINK - SPF 15)
♥ No7 Lip Stain + Gloss (Stay Perfect)
Hope you enjoyed this, despite it being quite different. I would suggest checking out Boots's offers at the moment!
I hope to write a more beneficial post soon, however I'm dealing with certain personal issues right now and don't feel comfortable with discussing it quite yet. Hope your weekend is going well.
Take Care xo
