10 Of The Best Fake Tans / Self Tanners In 2019

Gifted press items featured in post - I feel as if it’s time I write an updated best fake tans blog post. One of the questions I always get asked is what fake tan I use. Just like with hair care and skincare, I don’t use just one brand religiously. I easily could be loyal and stick to one brand forever, but there are so many incredible fake tans and self tanners out there, I like to mix and match. I’ve been using fake tan since I came out of the womb, no seriously, I’ve been using it for years and have honestly used the majority of the big names on the market and feel as if I have a good insight into which the best self tanners are. Yes I’ve looked like an oompah lumped/tangerine many times but hey, we’ve all been there. Here’s a list of the best self tanners and fake tans to buy in 2019.

I've been wanting to write a designer dupes post for quite some time now but as someone who loves designer (but also loves high street), I always felt like there's something a little *wrong* with people copying designer. On the flip side, I get it, maybe you don't want to spend thousands on a designer handbag and that's okay but rather than point blank copying it and going for a fake designer bag (illegal!) a dupe is a good way to get the designer look for less if you like the style. Hopefully this blog post will help you out with lots of designer inspired items without the cost of designer or hey, maybe it'll inspire you to make that life-long designer purchase instead. I always find I lust over the designer item so much, find a dupe of it and then end up going for the designer one anyway haha. One of the things I've been requested the most on my YouTube channel is a designer dupes video so I thought it was the perfect time to do a blog post featuring 12 of the best designer dupes on the high street in 2019 to go alongside my video. Open up for the best high street designer dupes! 

Social Media Influencers And Paid Ads - Disclosure, Sponsored Content

Today I want to talk about a topic that’s been on my mind for quite some time: the ‘not an ad’ discussion. I wrote a blog post years ago about influencers and sponsored content  so I guess this could be a little update on that post. For most of us, blogging started out as a hobby and we had no idea there was any type of reward let alone any financial reward from doing so. In fact when I wrote the post I refer to above, traditional jobs were still the norm and social media related jobs were only just becoming a thing. Now, people are running businesses from their homes, talking about things they are passionate about and making a living from it and I think that should be celebrated. Working hard to create content that people like and get some use out of and then being paid for it, seems to be a quite controversial matter for some reason but it is actually just a job like any other job that people get paid to do and I hope this honest chat will explain a bit more about the world of influencers, paid ADS, posts and more. Let’s discuss…
