Christmas goodies!

Merry Christmas everyone!
hope you all had / are having a great Christmas !

I was way too spoilt this year and I thought I'd share with you what I got :)
I'm not trying to brag in any way, just sharing some of the things I received for Chrissy.
I've had a really good day, apart from being sick! (my whole family woke up with a flu )
I hope you have a good day too. :)

I couple of days ago I went into work (I work at Coles) and they said there was a present for me!
I was so surprised to see the huge present sitting at the service desk!
They had been running a December gift competition where each day up until Christmas eve they draw one team members name out of a barrel and that team member receives a gift.
The present gets bigger and better as the month goes on!
I got this on the 21st so the box was pretty big haha.
Here's what I got:

 

Maltesers Bon bon
Mix Vanilla Candle
Taylor Swift's 1989 Album

Think Positive

I want to share some positive thinking tips today, as I have a few tips which are helping me to keep positive at the moment. Everyone faces challenges in their life and sometimes it gets all a bit much.
 Here's a few things I do to keep a smile on my face.

- Show gratitude for all that you can -
Gratitude can do incredible things for your happiness if you practice it on a daily basis.
Everyone has something to be grateful for no matter what, and if you're in a low place it can really brighten up your day to be able to acknowledge what's going right in your life instead of focusing all your attention on what isn't.

- Affirmations do the world of good -
Belief is everything, and if you don't believe in anything but your full potential then you need to change something. Change the way you talk to yourself and you will change your whole world.
Life is way too short to put yourself down and feel sorry for yourself.
You're a champion.

- Live like every day is your last -

Lately I have been making the decision to have the best day possible, to live every moment to the full because the harsh reality is that no one really knows when their time will be up.
Do what you love everyday, go and do that thing that you've always wanted to do in life.
Spend quality time with your friends and family and stop waiting for the perfect moment to start living your dreams.


Nickleback may not be everyone's cup of tea, but I found this song really inspirational.
I listen to it everyday, and realize that... like he says, time is never on our side...



I hope that I may help someone out there who's reading, I think it's a really important subject that I felt inspired to write about today.

Grown Alchemist & Coconut Revolution | Skin care ♥

Hello there ♥

I'm back to share a few favourite skincare products

 by two brands which I just happened to stumble upon, thanks goodness!
Grown Alchemist & Coconut Revolution.

It's the first time I've tried both of these brands and I can truly say I am in love.

What I like most about these products are their scent and feeling on the skin.

 

 Grown Alchemist Firming Tetra-Peptide & Centella Eye Cream

The product on the left is the Grown Alchemist Firming Tetra-Peptide & Centella Eye Cream

which I picked up on SALE last year for $12.50 reduced from $59.95 because they were changing their packaging to a bottle.

Despite buying it just because of the price, I am loving everything about this eye cream.

I love the original packaging, and it's definitely a shame they changed it.

It has a beautiful floral scent, is light on the skin and hydrates the eyes perfectly.

The cream claims to help restore the loss of firmness and elasticity around the eye, target expression lines, wrinkles, dark circles, puffiness and provides below surface hydration.

 I probably wouldn't spend that much to buy it again, but it's a really nice product which I recommend anyone looking for a good eye cream.

There is still a bit in the tube, and if it looks like I've squeezed out every last drop,
it's because I have enjoyed using it that much!

Coconut Revolution Original Body Lotion

In one of the first blog posts I did, I wrote about going to the Beautiful You Beauty Health and Fitness Expo in Melbourne.

The lotion was a sample in a goodie bag I received, and I'm so glad I did!
There's no doubt in my mind that everyone who received the goodie bag went and ordered this lotion.

It is has the most beautiful scent in the world and I just want to slather it all over my body.

It is incredible.

It smells like coconuts - obviously and it's really nice and moisturizing,

I've been keeping this in my handbag and using it as hand cream, I just can't stop smelling it!

Coconut Revolution have products for skin, body, hair and inner health.

I also use the coconut revolution coconut oil as a body moisturizer and recommend that too.
Overall, I am very impressed with these products and wish to buy more from these brands.

 

Have you tried Grown Alchemist or Coconut Revolution?

My new watch! :)

Hey there!

❤

Just thought I'd make a post about one of my favorite pieces of jewellery that I now own! :D

Yep that's right I paid off this watch over quite a few months, and today is my last payment! It was expensive for me, but I really don't regret it, it's so nice, and I loooooooove it.

This is the Citizen Eco-Drive

Chronograph Diamond Watch in Rose Gold.

RRP $799 AU

Because this watch is so beautiful, I take crazy good care of it which you should do with any of your jewellery if you want it to last obviously. I use a jewellery cloth to polish it and store it in it's original box. I don't wear it everyday either because I feel like it's just too nice to wear on a normal day, so it's being treated well haha!

Love love love the color. The clock face is mother of pearl and 28 diamonds surround the outside.

it's a beautiful watch, I'm glad it's finally mine and hopefully it lasts me for many more years to come !

Hope you all have a good day or night, wherever you are.
