Last Day And The Tide

Today is our last proper day together, I mean with my cousin, since she's leaving tomorrow. She has her flight from Glasgow, so we'll go there with her in the morning and then come back again.

We woke up and the weather was just so terrible that we even felt tired and like staying at home. But we knew that wasting this day was also not the best decision and despite the rain and heavy wind, we made our way to Portobello beach.
Once we actually got there, cold and wet, we hurried to the café by the beach, called The Tide. It is also a tiny art gallery, where you can buy cute little pieces of art for your home. We didn't buy anything, but we had a hot chocolate and a latte, and a wedge of carrot cake each.
I am lately obsessed with carrot cake and this one was also very tasty. My hot chocolate was also delicious, with a lot of cream and little marshmallows on top.
We sat there for a while and realised that the rain has stopped and the sun was coming out again. So we paid and went outside to have a walk at the beach and listen to the waves. The seaside is so realxing to both of us and we really enjoyed it there.
It wasn't too warm though and so we took the bus back home, but did the grocery shopping and went to the chippy as well before we arrived here.
We just ate a box of chips with salt and brown sauce and are laying in bed, tired after the whole day out.
Tomorrow we need to get up earlier and get to the airport, so it won't be the happiest day of this stay.
Once I'm back home I'll need to start my french exam revision, since I'll have it soon and didn't study for it at all yet. on Tuesday I'm also going back to college and the holidays are definitely coming to an end, which does make me a bit sad.

Hope you all have a nice evening.

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water | Review

Image
Today I finally decided to write a short review about the Garnier Micellar water, that many girls consider as a dupe of the Bioderma cleanser. I've been using this product for about a month or so now and I think it is about time to let you know what I, personally think about it. What information is given about the product: *good for sensitive skin * hypoallergenic * no perfume * removes make-up, cleanses, soothes * 200 uses 1) As you can see, I've used nearly half of the bottle and it says that it lasts for 200 uses. I've probably not even used it 40 times yet and it doesn't really look as if I could use it for 160 more uses. Of course, I know that this number is just an average number, but still, I think that it could be used for about 100 times, more than 200 to be honest. If I use it, then I use two small cotton pads, so I also don't use too much of the cleanser itself. It is strong, because one cotton pad takes off the make up of half of my face,

Christmas Wishlist In October?!

Image
When I was a child I used to write my wishlists for Christmas already in October. I have no idea why, but I thought it was a good thing to write down all my dream gifts as early as possible, as by Christmas I'd already forget all of them and I would remember them again when it was already too late. So, I still like to write down what I'd like to buy myself, what I'd like to put money aside for, or what I'd like to get for Christmas or my Birthday. I totally hate it when people ask me what I'd like to get and I just can't think of anything, even though there are always some small things I dream of.. Well, today I thought I could share five ideas for Christmas, that would make me extremely happy if I got them (or bought myself). 1) I would like to have a new bag for College. I have one at the moment, the GABS one, but it is too colourful to wear it with every outfit, which totally annoys me. But this is my only big bag, and I need a big one because I nee

Ziaja Body Lotion Review

Image
Hi again! A few weeks ago I already posted a photo on my Instagram ( which is here ), where I showed the 4 Ziaja body lotions I got to try and when I saw their generous packaging my first thought was: When will I use these all? But I was very happy about that because I got to find out which one is my favourite and which one I like using more on certain days etc. Thanks to the big choice I can also stay away from buying even more body lotions, which is great! ( I'm so into body lotions, it's crazy) The 3 bottles are 400ml each and they are from the Cocoa butter , Goat's milk and Natural Olive range.  The Coconut lotion comes in a 200ml packaging, so it's good for taking it on holidays or on a sleepover etc.  To give you an idea of these products I will quickly talk you through them. Let's start with the Olive range: It moisturises your skin thoroughly and leaves it silky soft and smooth. What is also great about it, is that it can even be use
