In honour of the winter Olympics which finished today in Pyeongchang, South Korea. I thought I'd do a little travel guide for my second home-town of Busan, South Korea. For those who don't know, I used to live in Korea and I think of it as my second home as I spent most of my childhood growing up there. Slightly different to your average childhood!

I'm a bit of a false lash fanatic. I honestly, cannot go out out with a pair stuck to my face. I get my eyelashes dyed on the reg, but am always on the hunt for longer lashes and as someone who is allergic to the glue that they use for eyelash extensions, I have to resort to false lashes.

In honour of National Lash Day (tomorrow!), I thought I'd share a little review of Kiss Lashes. I've tried many different kinds of eyelashes, and I used to be exclusively an Eylure kind of girl, but recently they changed their lashes and made them awful and super inflexible, so I've been on the hunt for a new brand.

I got sent Kiss lashes in Boudoir and Midnight, and honestly, they make my eyelashes look longer and fuller which is what I strive for! These can be bought at Superdrug for £7.99 and although they aren't most inexpensive lashes, they achieve the desired effect and are flexible! They definitely finish my out-out look and I'll be purchasing some more. I would recommend these as an alternative to Eylure lashes, if like me, you've been let down by their lashes recently!

What I would say though is that one of these pairs of lashes (Midnight) came without glue so I'd recommend purchasing a good eyelash glue. I'm very reliant on my Benefit lash glue!

Many of you may know the amazing Becca from Tea with B, and I happen to be very good friends with her! She writes the most beautifully written posts and her knowledge of tea is ridiculous, so if you don't know her, you should definitely check out her blog and her twitter! I wish I was that knowledgeable about something! However, a few months ago, we decided as she is from the USA and I'm from the UK we would do a swap of all things American and all things British. 

Another year, another Valentines. And for a change, I'm single on the blessed day #foreversingle. All jokes aside, Valentines day can be quite demoralising if you don't have another half, but, IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE!

Everyone goes on about how it's amazing to have another half and a partner, which, I'm sure it is and to be fair, I love being in a relationship. But right now, I'm happy doing me and just getting on with life which has been super busy as of late.

So, if, like me, you are single this Valentines, follow my step-by-step tongue in cheek how to survive Valentines Day guide, and live your best life. I certainly will be!



Step 1- All of the Brownies

Obviously, the first step, would be to dive head first into comfort food. Comfort food doesn't come in a better shape than chocolate brownie. Especially from Brownie Heaven.

I'm not sure if you read my Brownie Heaven review but, they are DIVINE. They've recently come out with their Valentine's range, and I was sent the most indulgent, decadent, moist, delightfully gooey and soft heart-shaped brownie.  Which was genuinely as big as my head, LIVING THE BROWNIE DREAM. As mentioned in my first review, the brownies also keep for up to 5 days in the fridge, and as I've taken this Brownie as a portion for one (piggy a f) I can personally confirm that my brownie heart was still as delicious as the first day I got it.



Step 2- Pop that Champagne

Why should Champagne on Valentine's day purely be reserved for couples? All I can say, is pop that cork and treat yo' self. Call it a hump day treat? Who doesn't love Champagne on a Wednesday? Certainly not me, sign me up! Although I don't think Thursday me will appreciate the champagne induced hangover.



Step 3- Treat yo' self

I don't think people in couples should be the only one to get presents on Valentines. On this purely commercialised day, why not join in? Treat yourself! Go on, you know you want to! That palette you've had your eye on? Go for it! Those pretty shoes, dooooo it!

Think about it, that money you've saved on hotel/ flowers/ dinner/ gifts/ cards/ chocolates/ teddy bears/ engagement ring/ anything else you can possibly buy your partner for Valentines, is just sat there- waiting for a purpose. If you're anything like me, get yourself on ASOS, splash the cash and treat yourself.


Step 4- Get That Bubble Bath on the Go

For me, there is nothing better than a bubble bath, super relaxing and de-stressing which is definitely something needed mid-week. Chuck a Lush bath bomb in it and you're onto a winner.

Thinking about it from a single gals perspective though, no need to share the bath. I'm not sure who came up with the notion that sharing a bubble bath is a romantic idea. It's not. It's cramped and uncomfortable. As a single pringle, stretch out, and enjoy your bath. You deserve it!

Step 5- Win yourself some Brownies

As mentioned in Step 1, I think one of the keys to a fabulous single Valentine's is through Brownies. Specifically, Brownie Heaven Brownies. Brownie Heaven have provided me with another (non-eaten!) heart-shaped Brownie to giveaway to one of you, my lovely readers! All you need to do, is head over to my twitter and Brownie Heaven's twitter, give us both a follow and retweet my pinned tweet. Winner will be announced Sunday 11th February 2018 at 7pm GMT. Good luck!
