Hi my lovelies!

Since I last posted, I haven't really had much time to myself and I feel like I'm now juggling so many things. 
I've begun to pack up our stuff and maybe a little silly of me, but I have also started daily vlogging. 
I wanted to be able to keep you all updated through this whole move process, but it's just dawned on me that we may be without the internet for a bit when we actually head down south. Doh! So I guess the vlogs will have to hiatus until will get sorted. Fingers crossed we can somehow make sure it gets turned on as we get there. 

Anywhoooo, I just wanted to check in and share the first couple of vlogs. 
Hopefully this weekend, I can actually sit down and get some proper posts written up. I'm going to try and write and film like a mad person, so there won't be a huge gap in posting whilst we move. If there is anything you would like to see, either on here, or over on YT, please let me know in the comments below. Also, if you've seen any new tags floating about, let me know about those too. I think they'll be great fillers for whilst I'm not about.

Apart from that and more box packing, all I have to look forward to is cleaning like a crazy person, freshly painting walls and laying some replacement carpet before we go. Fun. 

I hope you are all well!
Sam

The Schuermans! 
     Now that sounds a little stalkerish doesn't it, but seriously, these guys are the best. Sam, Jay and their beautiful son Mr. Phoenix are the Schuermans, a family of vloggers on Youtube whos channel follows their daily ups and downs. Follow them through their daily uploads, and I can guarantee that you'll feel like part of their lovely family.
     I found them through a video from Marie 'Bitsandclips' and I've been watching their videos ever since. They have the power to make me smile, even on my down days. So if you do ever read this, I just want to say thank you for that!
     Along with their daily vlog channel, Sam has her own beauty channel giving tutorials, Friday favourites and giveaways, and Jay has his own Q&A and cooking channel. I personally cannot wait to try some of his recipes.

Hi lovelies!
     I thought I'd just do a quick post to share with you my daily essentials. I swear by these products, and would recommend them to anyone. 
Loreal Paris Elvive Damage Care Repairing Shampoo
I love this shampoo! I've been using it for about 4 months now, I actually managed to buy two big bottles buy mistake (I was meant to buy a conditioner too). Thanks to dying my hair for years, my hair looked pretty damaged, but after using this I can see a massive difference. I'm still dying my hair, but the broken, bushy look has totally gone.
Herbal Essences Uplifting Volume Lightweight Conditioner
Ok, so I have only been using this for a week. Liam and I were shopping the other day and he was in a hurry to leave, so I grabbed the first conditioner that said 'volume' on it and hoped for the best. I actually thanked him for making me rush this morning, because I probably wouldn't have got this conditioner other wise, but it is incredible!!! I usually use herbal essences, but I find the conditioner is quite heavy and I sometimes have a hard time getting it all out of my hair, meaning when I blow dry it, my hair still feels rather greasy-ish. This one on the other hand, because it is 'lightweight' it washes out really easily and still leaves your hair really soft. The other benefit to this conditioner is that it really does give your hair added volume. My hair is really thick and heavy and usually sits really flat, but not when I'm using this! It feels bouncy and full and I absolutely love it, I can't really say anymore than that. 
Garnier Skin Naturals Anti-blackhead Deep Pore Wash
I bought this today because my skin has been progressively becoming worse recently. I've been really lucky with my skin and have never really suffered, even throughout my teenage years and I'm guessing the change in my skin is down to my change in diet recently. I've noticed more blackheads around my nose, but after using this only once, they seem a lot clearer and smaller. I will do a proper review after I have used it for a couple of weeks. 
Garnier Soft essentials Vitamin-enriched cleansing wipes
I'm going to hold my hands up and admit that I am awful at taking my make-up off at night, and when I do, I usually only use cheap baby wipes. With the change in my skin though, I have decided to keep to a proper routine to try and look after it more. I haven't used these for long, but they are said to be for dry skin, so I am hoping they will do some good. 
VO5 Heat Protect Styling Spray
I have always used a heat protection spray for my hair, but this is one of the best I have come across. I find it's lightweight and doesn't leave any residue in your hair. I tend to use it on damp hair as I am blow drying and also when using my straighteners. 
Jean Paul Gaultier Classique X Perfume
I just had to include this in my essentials post. I love, love, love this perfume. If you have read my recent posts, you will already know that I got my first sample of this at Sephora, and I feel in love with it. Liam got me this for Christmas last year and I'm still not sick of it. As you can see by the amount left in the bottle, I try not to use it every day because I want to make it last as long as I can, it does have a bit of a price tag on it. 

So what guys do you swear by? I'm always open to trying new products, so let me know and leave a comment!
