10 WAYS TO GROW YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA PRESENCE.

Tuesday 24 October 2017

Ah social media, the medium we all have a love/hate relationship with. I remember the simple days when having 20 followers who found your content funny and interesting was sufficient. Which it still can be, if you're just doing it for you. However in the world of content creators, we all know brands and people only look at your numbers  great content. This post is not just about helping you gain 100s of followers, but how to increase the amount of traffic driven to your blog/pages and create a larger audience overall. I'd also like to point out I'm no internet influencer, I'm just talking from my experience and what has helped me grow on the likes of Instagram and Twitter.

HOW I LOST 10KG (AND KEPT IT OFF, FOR NOW)

Sunday 22 October 2017

Firstly, I want to take a moment to congratulate past (June) Giana for deciding to finally commit to this 'healthy lifestyle/fitness journey' and actually sticking to it. More over I gave myself the challenge of losing 10kg by graduation (5th November) so hey, go me! Did it mean eating kale and chicken for 4 months? No, because then I could have probably lost it by August but would have been a big meatball by now again. We all know that muscle weighs more than fat, so aside from that I've lost around 3 inches from my waist, hips and all that jazz. If you're looking to shift a bit of weight or just here to have a nosey, here are some of the tips I followed to lose weight - P.S here's me sweating like a pig at the top of the Rock of Gibraltar.

Thursday 19 October 2017

So there's just over a week left until my favourite holiday of the year, which means I get to make everyone watch my favourite movie genre this month too. Even though my movie list would suggest I only watch thrillers, I do love a good jumpy horror. Whether you're spending your halloween dressed up as a sexy cat, or hiding behind your pillow watching films whilst ignoring trick or treaters here is my list of 10 'horror' movies to suit the occasion.

SUMMER BEAUTY FAVOURITES.

Saturday 14 October 2017

Now that I have a stable pay check, I can now kind of justify splurging on beauty products. I've always been quite standard with the make-up I use and my routine, I think the only thing that changes  daily is my shade of lipstick. Even though I tend to be more bare faced in the hotter months, there are usually a lot more events and things to dress up for, hence more time to experiment with products! Here are some of my beauty based favourites from the summer month.

10 APPS I USE IN MY DAILY LIFE.

Tuesday 10 October 2017

So recently (yesterday) I became the proud new owner of an iPhone 8 plus wehey! I planned this post whilst I still had my iPhone 6 (hence the photography), but with having a new phone means downloading the apps I still use frequently, and not Pokemon Go because we all know that phase lasted 2 seconds. Obviously Facebook, Twitter and Instagram are a given, seeing as I spend my life on Twitter and tagging my friends in memes, but here are the other apps I use on a daily basis. This post is written in collaboration with GoCustomized where you can create your own personal phone cases in a range of styles. In my case I decided to go for the 'mum' cover, and sadly the time I took it off, my screen smashed ha.
