I've always told myself that I don't have anxiety & am fine. However it wasn't until recently that I started reading into what anxiety actually is!

As I'm on holiday I thought I'd do a hotel review. Now I haven't done one of these before on my blog, but I am always posting reviews on Trip Advisor!

(I love that website too much!)

The hotel that I'm currently staying is El Pinar in Cala Llonga, Ibiza.
We've been staying here for the last three years, so I think I'm more than qualified to do a review on the place.

Firstly the location is beautiful, right around the bay of Cala Llonga. You can literally step out of the hotel & onto the beach, so if you love the beach you'll love it! The bar & restaurant also overlook the beach/ sea, as do a large percentage of the rooms.



Onto the rooms, they have two separate blocks, we have stayed in both blocks. Both are very similar however the balconies are better on the front block, which I like. Depending what you like the bar is also in the front block. The rooms are nice, nothing too fancy or too basic.


The staff are very friendly & attentive. The food is relatively good depending what dish you pick. I wouldn't advise doing all inclusive, but that's just my personal choice as me & Reece eat out a lot. Locally there are some really nice restaurants.

Overall I'd give it four stars.


Where's your favourite hotel?

It's time for another horsey moment here on the blog!

Today's subject: tail trimming.

I love when a horse has a lovely long tail, however there comes a length where it just needs trimming. Otherwise they can get messy & scraggy looking, which is not a good look!

Here is a short video tutorial on here to trim a horses tail.

I have done 'essential product' based posts in the past, but this one is slightly different.
This one this basically what I keep with me when I'm poolside on holiday.


Magazines/ Books
I don't read much when I'm at home, however it's a great pass time when you're just chilling on a sun lounger catching a tan. I like to read a variety of different things including topic specific magazines, books & ebooks on my iPhone.

Sun Cream
This really is a MUST for me, being so pale. Although it should be for anyone! Sun cream should be applied regularly if you're sitting out in the sun, especially after having a swim. I like to use Nivea sun creams for my body & am currently trialling Benefit's Dream Screen for my face.

Sunglasses
I have to wear sunglasses whenever the sun is out so I wouldn't be able to cope without these bad boys. In case I carry multiple sunglasses with me at any time.

Bottle of Water
This is again an important one! It's essential to drink water to stay hydrated when you're out in the sun. You will be sweating more & losing water quicker than normal, so drink up! If you are drinking alcohol it's still important to have water as alcohol will only aid in dehydration.

Hand Sanitiser
I take these everywhere will me, for so many reasons. Smelly, sticky sun creams, if you're eating or if you just want to refresh your hands it saves you a trip to the toilet.

Lip Balm

The sun drys out your skin in general, including your lips! Cracked, dry lips are not a good look.

iPhone

My hub for music, calm apps & books. Just an essential in life. Sorry not sorry.

Headphones

Linked to my previous item, the only way to listen to music around other people. There's nothing worse than someone playing music out loud, because let's be honest we don't all like the same things!

Let me know what's in your pool bag in the comments below.

What are your bad hair day solutions?

 I, like everybody else wants perfectly white teeth.

However I don't fancy sitting in a dentist's chair for numerous hours to achieve this look.

I have tried a few different types/ brands of teeth whitening products in the past & had no luck with them. So when these dropped through my letterbox I was really excited to give them a try.

These are Doll White 7 day teeth whitening treatment strips.

The idea of these is that they work as a seven day treatment plan, where you use one once a day for seven days. They do also offer treatment packs for 14, 28, 42 & 56 days. You pick your pack depending on how discoloured you feel your teeth are.

I personally prefer the idea of the shorter packs & using them prior to any big events I have coming up. Just for that extra burst of whiteness!

Below is a before & after photo.


After using the kit I have to say it does work! After seven days there is definitely a noticeable difference, which I think is great. I personally noticed a bigger difference to my top teeth than my lower teeth, however I think this is due to the difference in the shape of the strips.

The only thing I would say is that next time I would probably go with the 14 days treatment pack, based on my start shade & desired result.

This outfit consists of:

Dress - River Island

Blazer - Boohoo

Bag - River Island

Shoes - Carvela, Kurt Geiger

Watch - Michael Kors
Hair - Bellami Hair

The dress I did have to get take in as the size 6 I ordered was way too baggy in the back.

There are two brands in particular that I like at the moment, these are Meguiar's and Auto Finesse. I have also been getting into using Auto Glym recently too.

So my top products are:

- Meguiar's Gold Class range in general

- Auto Finesse Revived

- Meguiar's PlastRX

- Meguiar's Interior Detailer Cleaner

- Auto Finesse Tripple

- Auto Finesse Crystal

I've tried to pick drugstore products that aren't going to break the bank!

So this look is about using less products to save yourself some pennies.

For the base we'll be using a tinted moisturiser as I don't feel foundation is necessary for school (unless you are suffering with your skin & prefer more coverage).

We're also keeping the eyes simple, using one colour of cream shadow & just mascara.

As with the brows & only using a tinted gel.

I have also put in some optional extras, like the primer, blush & bronzer.

So watch the tutorial here:

I hope you all had a great summer holiday!
