All Time Favourite Films
Tuesday, 28 August 2018 • Other
I'd love to say all of my all time classic films grace IMDB's Top 100 Greatest Movies of All Time list, but I'm the hugest RomCom fan, so basically none of them make the list but honestly, I don't care. They're just the best kind of film and they are my favourite feel good films. Whenever I'm feeling down, or if it's cold and rainy and gross (or equally, muggy and rainy as it has been today)I just pop one of these films on and chill out!
1. Notting Hill
Absolute classic and I love anything with Julia Roberts in. Who doesn't also love Hugh Grant?! Hugh Grant's character is so loveable and so relatable it has me in stitches. My favourite quote being 'These carrots?' 'Murdered' hahaha.
2. My Best Friend's Wedding
Another Julia Roberts classic, with Rupert Everett and the absolute DILF who is Dermot Mulrooney. A classic tale of woman being in love with her best friend but not realising until the very last minute.
3. Clueless
Love, love, love Clueless. That is all.
4. Mean Girls
THE ULTIMATE GIRL FILM. Need I say anymore? Bitchiness, the fight for queen bee status and everything being fetch.
STOP TRYING TO MAKE FETCH HAPPEN, MOLLY!
5. 10 Things I Hate About You
Heathy, we miss you. This is one of my all time favourite films, with Julia Stiles playing a perfect role as a moody and angry teenager. My favourite quote has got to be: 'Am I that transparent? I want you, I need you, oh baby, oh baby'.
6. Pitch Perfect
I love Pitch Perfect, and if you don't agree... I'll pitch slap you.
7. How to Be Single
I first watched this when I had literally just come out a year long relationship. I loved every minute of it and it definitely helped me learn and grow as a person, as well as having a proper laugh at my fave Rebel Wilson.
8. Rush
Slightly different to the rest of the films on this list, but who doesn't love a cheeky bit of Chris Hemsworth.
9. How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days
Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey- match made in heaven on the silver screen. The twist is in this is so obvious but heartwarming. This film is a fantastic watch.
10. Love Actually
Technically a Christmas film, but I have zero shame in admitting I watch this all year round.
What are your favourite films to chill out to? Do you watch films more than once? I'd love to know!

Palmer's Protein Hair Pack Review
Saturday, 25 August 2018 • Beauty
Having blonde hair, and having to use toners and purple shampoos on my hair to keep the colour fresh, my hair tends to dry out veryyyy quickly (slightly unfortunate!). I had been on the hunt for a good hair mask to give my hair the moisture boost it needed, so off I headed to my local Superdrug (again! They must make a killing out of me!) and picked up the Coconut Oil pack and also the Manuka Flower Honey pack, to test out and see whether they suited my hair.
With both of the packs, you wash your hair, as normal and apply the pack leaving on for 15-20 minutes. As my hair is in need of the moisture, I choose to leave the pack on for the full 20 minutes and I found that both packs left my hair smooth, non-frizzy and both feeling and looking healthy!
Although I liked the Manuka Flower Honey Protein pack, I found the Coconut Oil Deep Conditioning pack did more for my hair, and gave my hair more of the moisture boost it craved. I would re-purchase the Manuka Flower Honey pack if the Coconut Oil Protein pack wasn't available. I use the Coconut Oil Protein pack every Sunday now, without fail, as part of my Sunday night routine (as detailed in my Skinny Tan Review!).
You can purchase both of these packs from Superdrug (I should really buy some shares in Superdrug now!) here. The Coconut Oil pack retails for £2.09 and the Manuka Flower Honet pack retails for £2.99.
Have you tried these hair masks? What do you think? I'd love to know!

Lo-Dough Review
Thursday, 23 August 2018 • Food and Drink
As someone who is forever on a diet, I'm always on the look out for new ways to reduce the number of calories or carbs I am consuming. Which, for a pizza addict like me, is a small problem.
I was browsing Instagram and one of the sponsored posts flashed up as I was scrolling through my feed. It was Lo-Dough, which promised me a low carb pizza base at only 39 calories. I was skeptical, verrrrrrrry skeptical! Nonetheless, I ordered 2 bases to give them a go.
Firstly, I'd like to point out, these are by no means cheap. Traditional pizza bases in Tesco go for two for £1.70 but these work out at around £2.50 per base. So for the two, it was £5. Luckily, I was armed with a 10% off code, which reduced the cost to £4.50 for the two.
The postage however, was free, but it did take the specified 5 working days to get to me.
Once they had arrived however, the box was so cute! It kind of reminded me of a pizza box.
Upon unwrapping my Lo-dough there was a very doughy smell, which for me, would put me off using it as a wrap. However, I used it as a pizza base. I topped it with my favourite toppings and baked it for the recommended 14 minutes and MY GOD did it deliver. It was like a perfect thin crust pizza. I topped mine with passata, EatLean protein cheese and pepperoni with some rocket on the top. ABSOLUTELY DIVINE. And, all for less than 250 calories. LIVING THE DREAM. I couldn't taste a difference between normal thin crust pizza base and the Lo-Dough pizza base, a winner in my book! The finished product is pictured at the verrrry top of this post.
I'd also like to point out, Lo-dough doesn't necessarily have to be used as a pizza base, it could be used as a quiche base, a wrap or even a burrito holder- the world is your oyster! This product is also gluten, sugar and dairy free, high in protein and fibre and low in carb. It's also suitable for those who are vegetarian.
I'd definitely repurchase Lo-Dough, despite the price tag, and you can purchase Lo-dough exclusively from the Lo-dough website.
Have you tried Lo-Dough or another alternative? I'd love to know more!
