Diaries & Writing | HelenaAsia

Woah! Hey there! It feels so nice to be blogging again since I know I haven't for 2 weeks :( Sorry about that but school has been a complete pain and I couldn't keep my blogging on top so I decided to take a break :/ 

Buuuut, I am so happy to be writing again and that's what I wanted to blog about today :) I always loved having a diary and I've had 3 so far: 2012, 2013 and this years and honestly I think that over the years it's been really nice to every once in a while go back to look at what you've done in the previous year/s.  For me, writing in a diary has helped whenever you need to get something out, whether it be anger or maybe something super amazing happened and it's a really personal way of documenting it :) 

I actually went back and read my diary from 2012 and I didn't realise how much juicy stuff that thing has in it! I never managed to finished my 2013 diary and stopped in August for some reason and this year I stopped for 6 months! I have gone back to writing in my diary as often as I can and I really want to stick to it - kinda like my blogging haha. I challenge any of you to try to keep a diary and make it anyway you like! I don't write everyday and I tend to keep and stick in cinema tickets, train ticket, little shenanigans that could give that day a little more life, weird but I kinda like it.

Sooooo after all that, I do hope to be writing more on here, this blog that I love and miss! Look forward to some more posts coming very soon I promise since after all it is the half term :)

Skincare? Body Shop? Wishlist Time!| HelenaAsia

I know what you're all thinking... is this sponsored or something but no haha, I remember back about a year and a half ago, me and my girlies loved going to The Body Shop and Lush and we'd buy stuff from there for Christmas and Birthdays! Since then the love has slowly faded but recently I've really want to delve into skincare and first I looked at Simple but then I realised The Body Shop have a good range right? So I went and used the Skincare Diagnostic Tool... 

Let me just tell you, I think you should try it and see what products you've been recommended for your skin because I'm gonna say I want to buy all of the products I got recommended! It is out of the The Body Shops skincare range not other companies, in case you didn't catch that haha! 

How it would go!
1. Vitamin E Cream Cleanser
First I'd go in with the cleanser and remove all the dirt and any makeup off my face and they recommended the Vitamin E cleanser because I think that this is for all skin types :)

2. Seaweed Clarifying Toner
The seaweed range is for combo skin and I definitely would say that I get so oily around my nose >.<  and the whole seaweed range is to help control oil and mattify your skin a bit.

3. Seaweed Day Cream
This day cream seems right up my street and this will probably be my first purchase from the wishlist! It says "Moisturises dry areas, balance excess sebum and gives a matt, shine free completion :)

4. Tea Tree Night Lotion
For those that didn't know, tea tree is amazing for your skin and since sometime we can all get the odd spot here and there, The Body Shop recommended this night lotion as something to help deal with that! It works overnight hopefully leaving you with better looking skin in the morning.

Extras!
There are a few little extras that they pop in...

• Vitamin E Eye Cream
• Seaweed Iconic Clay Mask 
• Seaweed Pore-Cleansing Facial Exfoliator

These little extras are going that little step extra in your skincare routine and maybe aren't that essential ^_^

I know this post is a bit different... hmm I don't know but I hope this may have helped if you are wanting to get into skincare and were a bit stuck! I know The Body Shop isn't the cheapest but it does have a wide variety that would help everyone's skin <3 nbsp="" p="">

Love you all <3 nbsp="" p="">
