A Glossier Inspiration | My Natural Beauty Top Picks

Glossier - natural beauty inspiration

Glossier stems from the brainchild of former Vogue assistant Emily Weiss. It all started when she was searching the internet for inspiration and couldn’t find anything that spoke to her; enter Into The Gloss, or ITG as it is now more commonly known. Emily created Into The Gloss; a blog where she interviewed models, makeup artists, and the strong women she admired about what they used and why.

The site has since become ‘the holy grail’ of beauty blogs and gained a cult following of dedicated readers from all over the world, leading the way for Glossier to follow. And so it was born, the home of the real-beauty revolution.

Scholl Velvet Smooth Electric Nail Care System

Laura Kate Blog. Manchester based lifestyle and fashion blog. Scholl Velvet Smooth Nail Care System Review. Laura Kate Blog. Manchester based lifestyle and fashion blog. Scholl Velvet Smooth Nail Care System Review.

Here in Manchester it appears that we have completely skipped autumn and are heading straight for winter instead. This means it’s time to up my skin-care game as the cold winter weather can be as harsh on the skin as the sun can, and it’s important to take care of your skin all year round.

I have only really begun to fully understand the importance and get into skin-care and beauty regimes over the last couple of years, and I’ve never been one for doing much more to my nails than painting them or getting them done when I fancy it.

That is, until I got this fancy new nail care system from Scholl to make it a whole lot simpler and to help me take care of my nails.Read More
