The next thing is to photograph or video (or both) the product. If it's make up, swatches are always good to photograph too. Try to create different backgrounds & set ups for photographs so they don't get boring/ too similar (unless this is part of your theme). I like to try to make them fit the theme of the product or season.

Fashion/ style photographs might be a bit more difficult, you may need to get someone else to help you by taking the photos. For fashion images I would advise scouting some cool locations, so you can get some awesome professional looking shots.

Then the next stage is to go through all your photographs at decide which ones you're going to use. Then it's time to edit them. I edit mine on photoshop, however you could easily do this on your phone or tablet.

Now you're ready to upload your images and get started on your blog post!

Firstly, the title. This can be the deciding thing to make someone read this blog post or click away, so think what you want it to say.

Now this is what I sometimes find the hard part, writing up the blog post. You want it to be informative but not boring or too long. It really is about getting the right amount in there without waffling on. I will say there is also another format which can work, which is a predominately image based blog post. Once you have done this & spell checked, you're ready to publish your blog post!

I hope you found this useful!

You guys might not know this but since starting the gym I have been OBSESSED with gym wear.

I mean what can I say, it's all so comfortable to war & very flattering on the body!

So here is a little wishlist of gym wear items I'd love!

Ryderwear D-Maks Raw Grey lifting shoes.

I have mixed feelings about training shoes, however I do lift some serious weight so I don't see why I shouldn't have a pair really! These ones by Ryderwear are pretty affordable & nice to look at! They have good selection of colours but I felt the grey were the most wearable.

Gymversus Black Airtex vest.

You can never have too many vests, right? This one by Gymversus is particularly cool as it somewhat see through. So if you have a cool sports bra you want to show off without going topless it's perfect.

ICanIWill Comfy V2 Tights.

Ok so I am a legging addict! These legging just look amazing don't they! Nice grey leggings are really hard to find, but these look like they are spot on. I love the piping detail too!

Gymversus Lightweight Stretch Bottoms.

I don't really wear joggers much ever, however it is starting to get a little too cold even for leggings.  I like the slim fit of these ones & how simple the design is.

ICanIWill Perform Tights in Khaki.

Khaki is huge this year & it's awesome to see it's starting to get into the gym wear market too! I think it's a really flattering colour on most people. I also like to black panel design on these.

Nike Elastika Tank Top.

I've seen a lot of these vest with the strip back, however a lot of them just don't look very nice. This one by Nike actually looks really nice. Simple colours & a thin strip down the back. This sort of vest is great to show off your back!

Powder. A really awkward product for me. I feel like it's really hard to find a good powder, that does exactly what you need it to!

I tend to use powders to set me under eye area or if it's appropriate as a powder foundation sometimes.

There is one powder I have found so far that does a pretty decent job of both & that is MAC's Mineralised Skin Finish Natural.

I have actually repurchased this product a few times, so it must be pretty good. I actually prefer to use this as a powder foundation, as it have quite nice coverage for that. However I do also sometimes use it to set my under eyes if my concealer is a little light in tone (in the summer).

This powder is great because MAC seem to make this in lighter shades than some of their liquid foundations, which I'm sure I'm too pale to use. I also feel like this powder has a brightening aspect to it, which make your skin pop & glow a little. It just creates a really fresh, healthy look.

Overall I would have to say that this is my go to powder at the moment. I have tried a few different ones from the drugstore that I've liked, however none have compared to this one. It's also really helpfully having a mirror in the compact, which a lot of drugstore powders don't have.

Overall, if you're feeling a bit spendy I'd definitely recommend this powder!

Now you guys all know that I absolutely love GlamGlow's SuperMud face mask, so I have since purchased some of their other face masks to see if they're just as good.

So I recently tried out their YouthMud face mask & I have to say I have some mixed feelings about it.

So I have used this mask a few times, so I think I can make a fair comment on how it worked for me. I will say it does work, it makes your skin feel super clean & look a lot healthier/ clearer. However it is one of those masks that brings all the nasty things to the surface, so after a few days don't be surprised by some spots!

There isn't the features of this mask that bother me, it's more the texture & feeling of it whilst on the skin. It honestly has the texture of sand, which I find a little hard to apply to the skin or too abrasive for my skin at least. Another thing is that it kind of strings my face when I first put it on & for probably the first five minutes of the face mask. I have heard a lot of people have this or worse, a burning feeling when using this face mask.

So that's why I'm so undecided on it & with the price tag being so big, I don't think I'll be repurchasing this mask. I'm glad I tired it, but I feel like it's really not for my skin type.
