6am on a Sunday… because apparently we don't do slow Sundays around here 😂⚽️

A very quick attempt at making myself look slightly more human before leaving at 8am for football.

And I'm REALLY getting into this fresh-face era lately 🤍

✨ Medicube collagen gel — absolute game changer and one I genuinely won't be without now (thank you to the friend who recommended it )

✨ Collagen eye cream
✨ Collagen under-eye concealer
✨ Charlotte Tilbury Flawless Filter — I NEVER wear foundation but this ... 👌🏼
✨ Beauty & Brows powder just to fill the gaps
✨ Wild Refill lip balm — OMG. New must-have. My lips feel ridiculously smooth, plump and juicy 🤌
✨ No mascara
✨ No lashes

And the hair?

Overnight curls still hanging on for dear life… quick brush, hat and GO. 😂

Although apparently choosing WHICH hat required more thought than the entire makeup routine.

Ready by 8am. ⚽️

Not such a slow Sunday…

It's a Soccer Sunday. 🤍⚽️

Anyone else spend their Sundays standing on the side of a football pitch? 😂

That weird in-between stage where life looks exactly the same from the outside… but behind the scenes, it feels completely different. 🤍

Same routines. Same chaos. Same us.

Just a quiet feeling that the story is shifting somehow…

Some chapters are better kept quiet while they’re still being written. ✨

The rest? Still unwritten and to be continued....🤍

LifeChanges StillUnwritten

Anyone else feel like their brain has approximately 37 tabs open at all times? 😂🙋🏼‍♀️

Life has been LIFE-ING lately… work, family, plans, decisions and about 462 other things happening in the background 🤯

Definitely not feeling like I have everything figured out — but maybe we’re not supposed to.

One thing at a time. Enjoy the little moments and remember it's OK to take a moment of quietness, but most of all just keep moving 🤍 (or so I keep telling myself!)

Tell me I’m not the only one currently in this era 😂👇🏼

Lifestyle Relatable KeepMoving

Life has been FULL lately 🤯

And if I’ve learnt anything, it’s that you don’t need the perfect routine, the perfect diet or 2 hours in the gym to keep moving forward.

If I’m being completely real, my gym routine over the past few weeks has been all over the place. I’ve seriously struggled to get back that momentum and drive I normally have.

But I keep showing up.

Some days I’ll have a great workout.
Some weeks it’s Pilates.
Some days it’s just getting my steps in.
And sometimes I’ll go to the gym knowing I’ve only got 20 minutes in me.

And that’s okay. 🤍

Because 20 minutes is still better than deciding there’s no point because I can’t give it 2 hours.

✨ Something will always beat nothing.

Especially for us women in our 30s juggling work, family, hormones, life… and approximately 462 things in our heads at once 😂

I’m learning that consistency doesn’t mean being perfect. Sometimes it just means not giving up when you’ve lost your momentum.

Keep showing up. 🤍

The hubby broke my 10-year-old hairdryer… so really, this purchase is HIS fault. 😂💸

With a full head of extensions, I wasn't about to panic-buy any old hairdryer, so after debating Dyson vs GHD vs Shark for FAR too long… I went for the Shark SpeedStylePro. 👀

£109 on Amazon and my first reaction when I switched it on says EVERYTHING. 🤣💨 I genuinely wasn't prepared for the power!

First impressions though… 😍

My hair felt so sleek, it helped tame the frizz and the Scalp Shield feature is 👌🏼 when I'm working close to my roots or styling my fringe.

Bought myself — not gifted. Just sharing because I'm genuinely impressed!

Now tell me… Dyson, GHD or Shark — which team are you? 👀👇

Well… Wild got me 😂🫧

I recently became an affiliate after trying their products and clearly they won me over because I’ve now gone and spent my own money on the body wash too. 🤣

And I’m SO glad I did because the smell 😍🤌🏼

The tiniest amount lathers up ridiculously well, it feels lovely and thick on the skin and even my teenage boys have given it their approval… which is basically the highest level of product testing in this house. 😂

I also LOVE the refillable canister idea — less waste, looks cute in the bathroom and you just replace the refill when it's empty. ♻️🚿

Safe to say this one's staying in our shower!

A little unboxing from today 💕📦

I deliberately left this one completely natural — no fancy edits, no frills, I'm even wearing my glasses for the reel (which is a never 😂) ...just a genuine first look at what arrived because I wanted you to see the products, packaging and my actual reaction as I opened everything.

✨ Deodorant refill case + mini refills
✨ Lip balm refill case + refill
✨ And how CUTE are the designs?!

I honestly can’t wait to start using them! 🥰

Thank you for sending these over — I’m excited to put them to the test!

Would you do this in Vegas? 👀🏎️

We turned up with no booking, jumped in a full electric car and spent an hour driving around Vegas with absolutely NO doors and NO air con… in 43°C heat. 🥵😂

Let's just say the “Vegas detox” was very real. 🤣

You can choose your route, with guided tours taking you around either the Strip or Downtown/Fremont while the headset tells you about the sights along the way.

Did I love it? Honestly… no. 😂
Was it an experience? 100%!

Some things you try once just for the story… and this is definitely one of them! 🇺🇸

Would you give it a go? 👇
