OLAY Super Cream Review
A lightweight, hydrating SPF moisturiser that melts into the skin, protects well, and leaves a glowy, makeup ready finish. The refillable packaging is a win. The scent is quite strong for me again, but the formula itself is balanced, wearable, and easy to integrate into any routine.

OLAY Super Serum Review
Olay’s Super Serum claims to have 5 benefits all in one, texture, tone, firmness, fine lines, hydration, and honestly? It performs better than I expected. It sinks in instantly, leaves a healthy glow (not the fake, silicone-y kind), and layers beautifully under moisturiser and SPF.

Project Pan - November Empties/Reviews
Rimmel London - Volume Flash x10 Mascara Final score - 22/30 Price vs Value - 5/5 Formula/Performance - 3/5 Scent & Texture - 3/5 Longevity/Results - 4/5 Packaging & Experience - 3/5 Repurchase Potential - 4/5 If we’re talking value, £7.99 feels very fair for a drugstore mascara. The packaging is quite standard. Though I do have a bone to pick with the security label from hell plastered across the lid, it peels off at the corners and you’re left with a sticky residue that cli

You’re Not Half a Person Just Because You’re in Love
The fastest way to lose yourself? Get into a relationship and stop doing anything without them. Suddenly, your likes, dislikes, and hobbies are just… whatever they like. Your personality? A tragic collage of “shared interests” and joint Spotify playlists. Cute. Until you wake up one day and realise you’ve become the human equivalent of a “Live, Laugh, Love” wall decal. It’s Not Selfish to Have a Life There’s a fine line between being selfish and just having the audacity to e

October Soundtrack - For When You’re Mostly Fine, But Not Really (Spotify Playlist #2)
October has been a strange kind of limbo month for me, part reflection, part rebuild. The nights are darker, the air feels heavier, and apparently, my playlist followed suit.

Project Pan: Falling Out Of (and Back In) Love With Makeup
For the uninitiated, Project Pan is basically beauty rehab. It’s the art of committing to the products you already own until you can literally see the bottom of the pan, bottle, or bullet.
It’s finishing what you started. It’s holding a mirror up to the capitalism fuelled beauty industry and to your own shameful bathroom shelf.
And in my case? It’s more than just using things up. It’s about finally letting go of an era.

What September Sounded Like (Spotify Playlist #1)
September was… a lot. Equal parts stress, melancholy, and a desperate need for noise to drown out the shit show in my brain. Lucky for me, music does what therapy sometimes can’t, it gets me out of bed, into the car, through the workday, and occasionally allows for a cathartic bathroom floor breakdown. So here it is, the run down of the soundtrack of my September.
