#MYBEAUTIFULSTRUGGLE

   I don't really know what I'm going to call this blog post. I have to discuss Jordan Bone's latest YouTube video "My beautiful struggle". This video had over 25,000 views in 24 hours! ( Congratulations Jordan) . The point of this video was for Jordan to show her viewers The struggle she has to apply make up. It's almost like a behind-the-scenes about how difficult it was to learn to do her make up. She is a positive, beautiful, ambitious inspiration which makes her the perfect role model for so many different people not just those with disabilities. It's not easy to put a video like this online for everyone to see. To admit that you can't do most things for yourself and have to ask for help with everything is difficult. Down to silly little things to normal people ( able people ), like brushing your own hair or dressing yourself. Do you take that for granted ? Maybe ? You probably don't even realise your morning routine is completel

Beginnings of a Bucket List

Recently i've been wanting to travel and do more with my life. To put it simply - I'M BORED! There are things i'd love to do but realistically there not going to happen unless anyone has a fairy godmother i can borrow? Yes being in a wheelchair makes traveling a struggle and an expense! You know dragging a carer around the world and paying for equipment hire at each destination increases the price of that back packing, hostel staying experience. I figured if i make a list ( gotta love a list ) I might start planning to do more. Some things may just be dreams but dream big thats what i say! On a side note i will add some bucket list achievements that i have done. It's a good feeling to accomplish a dream. Own a house Work in Radio Travel across The Golden Gate Bridge Go Parasailing Graduate from University  Watch Star Wars Be in love  Shop in Dubai  Meet an idol -  Whoopi, Tina Turner, Shania Twain, Jennifer Aniston, Barbara Windsor .. my list goes on

                                     Recently I went to a BBQ on that one day that we had sun this year - haha! Rimmel Lasting Finish Nude Foundation Nude Ivory - £7.99 I wanted a light base with coverage and SPF. This foundation is great for summer because its light, doesn't feel cakey. It also has a    SPF 20 which is great! Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer Cool Medium 2 - £4.19 I love this concealer!! It's my go to at the moment. Quick and easy to use no faff - blends easy. Great for dark circles and blemishes too. Max Factor Creme Puff Blusher Lavish Mauve - £8.99 Perfect summer glow. No need for highlighter because its multi ton al in different lights. Benefit Roller Lash mascara - £19.50 This is one of few mascaras that actually hold a curl! No smudging down my face which is a bonus.
