Chronic Illness and Feeling Like a Burden
I've been thinking about this a lot lately, about my life, my contribution, the burden my chronic illness has on my loved ones. I know I'm not the only person suffering from a chronic condition that feels this way but since it's been on my mind, I thought I'd discuss it.

Daith Piercing for Migraines
As you can tell, I'm a fan of piercings; I now have seven in my left ear. I've wanted new piercings for a while, so when my fabulous blogging pal and twin (spiritually we're totally related) Beth, from Mermaid in Disguise, got her daith pierced, I had to copy. On a less child-like, 'I want the same as Beth,' level, I'd wanted my daith and tragus pierced for ages and Beth getting hers, reminded me.

Body Jewellery Shop
I'm a fan of ear piercings, I'm currently waiting to get my daith and rook pierced as I think it'll look cute, but that's another story. The Body Jewellery Shop kindly sent me some gorgeous ear piercing jewellery products and I'm a little bit in love.

Kylie Jenner Uses a Wheelchair as a Prop
The internet blew up on Tuesday night when pictures from
Kylie Jenner’s Interview magazine photoshoot
were released. Kylie is depicted as an absurd doll-like figure in a gold wheelchair
for a Steven Klein editorial, and I'm really not okay with it.

Atlantic.

Mac Prep + Prime 24-Hour Extend Eye Base Review
Mac Prep + Prime 24-Hour Extend Eye Base | £16 | Mac |
Not only does this eye primer by Mac have the longest name ever, it's also wizardry in a tube. I've tried various eyelid primers, Urban Decay Primer Potion (too wet), Too Faced Shadow Insurance (did nothing), Mac Painterly (still a fan), and this is hands down my favourite, I'll tell you why...

Everyday Autumn Make Up Look
It's cold, my skin is feeling a bit more dry, so lately I've been trying to stick to the same few base products that I know won't cling to any dry areas or make me look cakey. I've been exfoliating my skin religiously twice a week and slapping on a hydrating moisturiser. However, I've recently been put on new meds and it's playing havoc with my skin...I'll complain about that another time.

Toddler Life: Introducing the Star - KP
Let me introduce my nephew, Kaine, (KP). He's two years old (three in two weeks) and the highlight of my life. I have no idea what I was doing with my time before this child was born.
Above is my favourite picture of us, we sat one day taking selfies and he copied every face I pulled, and this is my favourite one.
I always tweet the funny things he says or does so I'm going to make it a series on my blog. Every so often I'll be dedicating a post to my cheeky little monkey of a nephew and I can assure you, it'll be equal parts hilarious and cute.
Taster:
(My mum, his nan, clearing his toys away)
KP - Good boy, Nanny.
Nan - I'm a girl.
KP - Good boy, Nan.
Nan - Thanks, Kaine.
Stay tuned. And follow my #toddlerlife tweets if you can't get enough.

Where to Start with Mac Lipsticks?
I'm not a newbie to Mac, I'm an addict, I own a variety of nudes, numerous berries and the odd red.
I thought I'd share some staple lipsticks that any Mac lipstick lover must have in their collection.
A make up counter can be quite an intimidating place; especially the Mac lipstick counter, all the different colours and formulas staring up at you hoping you pick them. Where do you start?

30 Things About My Invisible Illness You May Not Know
Many of you know that I'm disabled and raising awareness is very important to me. I use walking aids and a wheelchair most of the time but on my 'better' days, my chronic condition resorts back to invisibility and people think I've been miraculously cured - no, guys, just having a good day for a change. Anyway, let's get this thing started.
