Looks aren't everything, obviously. But beauty is fun and we all like to feel our best, whatever way gets us there. For me; beauty can play a big part in how I feel, how confident I am, and ultimately how I act. I decided I'd like to make a list of all the little beauty goals I have for 2016, in the hopes it will keep me motivated.
This isn't me being super 100% serious though, I mean... I'm not gonna get super down on myself if I dont own 200 MAC lippies. Ya feel me?!
Beauty Goals for 2016-
1. Skincare - Master it! I have already got some holy grail products now, but there are still aspects of my routine I'd like to have perfected this year. Finding the best exfoliator will be one.
2. Find the perfect lipstick. Okay this sounds silly, especially as I know I have at least 40. But none of them ever feel 100% perfect all year round. I want one that applies beautifully, lasts ages, doesn't smudge easily, goes with my skin/hair and can become my signature colour. Where are you?!
Hello lovelies! I've been so excited to share today's post with you all, and I've been squealing with joy ever since I knew it was going to happen! You see, I was recently contacted by the lovely Tessa from the HOW Jewellery Club, with an offer I couldn't refuse.
If any of you don't know, I love all things Disney (actually, why have I never done anything Disney related on my blog before?! Hmm. Ideas...) and I even have an Alice in Wonderland tattoo on my foot which features some famous AIW icons (namely the mad hatters hat, teacup, potion etc) and it also has 'We're all mad here' written underneath. It's a tattoo that really speaks to me, and hopefully represents my quirky, childish side.
Anyway, when House of Wonderland got in touch and mentioned December's box was an Alice in Wonderland themed one, well I jumped at the chance of course! (Okay this is about to get photo heavy, in an attempt to do this box justice!)
I've been dying to catch up with you guys properly for days now, I really felt like I had a million little things I needed to say. None of them super important to be honest, but it always feel so good to indulge in a chatty post with you lot - it's my favourite type of blogging! I hope you don't mind.
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year, and 2016 is already being kind to you. I got utterly spoiled by loved ones and I feel very grateful. My favourite gift by far as my new graphics tablet from Gary; it's something I need to use every single day and him getting me an awesome one makes a big difference! We had a quiet Christmas and New Year to be honest, and I was okay with that. I never usually like staying in on NYE, but this year was okay. I brought in 2016 content, working hard, being creative and feeling loved. Perfect. (Okay, not perfect. Perfect would have been 15 Jagers, blaring music and all my friends around, but there we go.)
So I'm writing this one in the company of a dear JIV aka Liv. We've had quite a few drinks and we've been on periscope all night and it got a bit weird tbh. I've had to delete some because oh my god they were awful. OMG It got rude.
Lemme just get real for a sec. Tonight we ordered vibrators from LoveHoney. I got one for Liv as a pressie because if you cant do that for a mate WHAT THE HELL CAN YOU DO. Im a good friend.
We also chatted about what makes someone gay, how to tell if someone is gay, and very many a sexual thing haha. Oh dear.
Anyway she's a good little JIB.
I forgot what else I wanted to talk about.
She's made me a white chocolate latte. She's whipped. HAHAHAHA.
I was thinking about secrets and we revealed a few on Periscope. Well, we played that '2 Truths 1 Lie game' LOL and nobody guessed my truth right. I duno hwo to feel about that haha.
Liv moaned at me saying I have to have a lie in tomorrow so there we go. Lie in for Jem. She's gona text me from the front room like a freak when she wakes up. ALSO someone on periscope got liv to keep saying 'Mike Hunt; over and over. HAHA. Yep. I'll leave you to work that one out haha.
I am gonna curl up in bed in a bit with my latte and clean my makeup off and get in jim jams even though liv moaned aba jim jams im making her sleep in them or gary will get a surprise when he comes home in the morning hahahahahaha. Liv pure pantless in da living roo HAHAHAA
On Monday I'll be seeing JIV again for our new PROJECT hahaha. For 2016, and its gonna be awesome. Then I also have to give her her vibrator next week too, obv. She'll be fuming if not hahahaa. So if you all realise Liv is extra happy next week YOU KNOW WHY. HAHAHAA.
ANYWAY.
Goodbye.
Hello 2016.
LOLZ Mike Hunt.

January is a time when most of us find ourselves more motivated, determined and inspired than ever. There's something about a new year, a new calender, a blank page that seems so appealing and refreshing. It's wonderful to have a reminder that we are in charge of our own life, and we can damn well do with it what we please.
This year, I hope to be even more creative than last year. Don't get me wrong, I feel like a super creative person anyway. But I would like to explore new hobbies/activities that I've never tried before too. With this in mind, I thought I'd share with you guys a list of things that always inspire me. Because we can never have too much inspiration, right?
Some of these things are quite random, but they never fail to light a fire inside me so I've included them anyway.
LOOK HOW CUTE IT IS. Okay, hey, yes, hello.
Apologies. I planned on writing a proper intro there, but I couldn't quite hold back in how cute this makeup bag is from the guys at Planet Camping. The lovely folk over there decided to send me one (Hi Leigh!!) and when it arrived I swear I looked like the heart eyes emoji.
It's now my most unique and quirky makeup bag I own, woo! Also super spacious too which is handy, since I seem to find that I can't stop buying lipsticks and eyeshadow palettes.
I had no idea Planet Camping did anything so fun and cute, which made me want to mooch about their site for more info. After a good nosey through, I came away quite impressed with all the fun accessories you can get to make camping even more fun (and super useful obviously!). I got thinking about what festivals/trips I'd like to do this year, and I think January is the best time to plan out these things. I'm very tempted by Download this year, and The Secret Garden Party festival which I've never been to. But failing that; I at least want to organise a group camping trip somewhere! How fun would that be?!
I'd love to know if you guys have any particular camping locations around the UK that you think are lovely/worth a visit? Please let me know, I'm determined to have lots of adventures this year! :)

Let me start today by admitting to you guys I already have a bunch of planners; I'm a bit addicted. There's no easier way to tempt me than to put a blank, pretty planner in front of me - you can be sure I'll buy it within minutes. The problem I usually have though is I don't have one single planner that is completely perfect for me. Functional, useful, nice layout, pretty, etc. There's always something. So when Stigu got in touch with me and asked if I'd like to receive their planner to try out, I thought 'Hell yes!'.
