The Body Shop | 2015 releases

Hello readers!

Today I'm coming at you with the new launch releases from The Body Shop which are AMAZING! Trust me, you're in for a surprise. Today I met the lovely skin care expert Alicia at TBS who is great at explaining skin types and differentiating between the conditions of each person's skin. She kindly gave me skin consultant on the new products which she also tested on my skin to get an in-depth overview of how the products work and their significance. 

Personally when it comes to public consultant I'm the type of person that would shy away however the workers at TBS are excellent in making you feel comfortable and engaging with work with a hands on approach.

The products displayed in each of the photographs I can hands of heart say were fantastic with the Camomile cleansing oil being my favourite from them all! I would never think of placing oil on my skin however even now as I type away on my laptop I can still feel the nourishment and cleanliness to my skin... oh how wonderful! :D

The vitamin C glow boosting moisturiser is amazing at giving the face a nice, healthy sheen without looking oily or wet. The thick, vibrant shade of the cream creates a perfectly soft and hydrating effect giving the feeling of plumpness especially to the cheek area.

Overall I enjoyed my visit to The Body Shop at Trafford centre, the experience was truly great, thanks to Alicia! If any of you are interested in purchasing the products presented above or have any inquiries regarding them then leave a comment or equally send me an email so I can fully answer any questions.

Wardrobe Makeover | Sliding Doors

As I type this blog there's just a few days left till I finally move out and so most of my Friday was spent packing and unpacking boxes of clothes to the new house which I was super excited about. Firstly, my new wardrobe is A LOT bigger and rather spacious then my previous fitted in wardrobe which was quite small but this time I opted for a 3 door sliding wardrobe which a cute little (smaller then I expected it to be) work desk. 

At start I was quite hesitant to purchase a sliding wardrobe as it just wasn't for me, I thought at the time but due to my parents request I decided to go ahead with it and place the order. Believe it or not, as exciting as 'moving house' seems it can be quite stressful at times especially if your managing the builders so don't expect it to go like a walk in the park because trust me it's not!

So what seemed to be like forever, my wardrobe was finally made and I decided to go for 'PURE WHITE' glass panels on both sides and the center door being a 'SILVER GLASS' mirrored door, which once it was all complete looked very classy and elegant, just how I wanted it to be. In the planning design a few shelves were placed for tops, 2 drawers and many top shelves for miscellaneous items and quite a few poles to hang long, flowy dresses as they can be quite the task to fold and maintain in a neat, tidy way. 

I am so far very happy with the look of my interior  in my new room as the colour theme is very calm and fancy which I opted for but to spice it up a tad bit I will be doing more DIY's (mostly Tumblr) ones to give the extra bit of mysteriousness to my room and hopefully add some fairy lights when I finally settled in.   

I would definitely recommened sliding wardrobes especially if you're going down the new, modern look to your house but try to ensure that your plans are the correct measurements and also invest in good builders who can carry out the tasks even if you have to pay a tad bit more, you'll have a peace of mind by the end of it. 

No Introduction Needed..?

Hello readers! I'm Summaya... Summaya Ali and I've been thinking of creating a blog for quite a while now so I guess here's my very first attempt which I hope to publish too :)

So what inspired me to create a blog? Hmm well for me its not really that difficult as I feel as though I'm surrounded by inspirational and motivating people all the time and seen as though I spend pretty much 99% of my time on the internet 90% YouTube haha, I love watching Zoella, Pointlessblog, Sprinkleofglitter, Marcus Butler, Mylifeaseva, Jim & Tan, Lifelongpercussion, Dinatokio and the list goes on.. 

Hence I thought I should probably make some good use of my time and therefore decided to write (or shall I say 'type') a blog. I've previously written past blogs for an online school rewards company called VIVO and it was pretty cool and they liked it so why not start my own webpage?! Right!

This year I've focused on being healthy. At the very start i admit it was very very difficult but I can definitely say that I feel 100% happier and fitter. Blogilates here on YouTube has great videos on health and fitness, so you should probably check them out!

In April I flew to Turkey for the Easter holidays and it was a great way to release all the stress from the GCSE exams which i was taking. I stayed in the city Marmaris at Green nature resort and spa hotel which FYI is superb and caters excellent food. My mouth waters just from thinking of it haha but it was a great experience and there were many activities to partake in which was super cool.

The hotel served fresh food everyday resulting in a variety of desserts, the backlava is by far my favourite! The food is so fresh and organic but surprisingly tasty! Even the huge range of salads took me by surprise. 

And when a teenage girl goes on holiday, what does she do??? Yep a lot of shopping damage haha. I bought a pair of Burberry trainers which fir perfectly, quite a few T-shirts and pretty much everything! The highlight of my trip to turkey was probably having a relaxing Turkish bath, it was so soothing and all in all incredible. Oh and if you do decide to go Turkey you should definitely go on the excursions; I went on a boat trip to a local place and also went mud biking which was great fun.

Along with the holiday comes a bundle of exams which surprisingly when well! Try revising at least a few months before the exam to ensure you are fully prepared on the arrival day and give it your all. My personal way of revising which helped me the most was to re-read every note but everyone is different so try out different methods of revising to know which suites you best! Oh and that cupcake, my maths teacher gave me :) It feels so goods once all the exams are over so always try your best before its too late.

Hope you enjoyed my very first blog, it feels weird to say that haha. Have an awesome day :) 

Love, Summaya
