Bullying , it is NOT a joke!

Bullying can come in many forms such as emotional ,physical and cyber  bullying. The definition of bullying is to : 'use superior strength or influence to intimidate (someone), typically to force them to do something.'

Bullying happens in every school and i think it is absolutely disgusting! I have experienced bullying and i can say that it has definitely affected my life, it made my self esteem so low, i had no confidence at all and made me have very destructive behaviours. I was depressed and anxious all of the time and it contributed to my eating disorder, although its not the full cause. I will never ever forget the words that people have said to me. People have told me to kill myself and i seriously don't understand why you would say that,  it is so low.

A study in Britain found that at least half of suicides among young people are related to bullying! This is absolutely shocking! Nobody deserves to be bullied, no matter what they've done - and most of the time they have done absolutely nothing wrong! Bullies often use the excuse that it is 'just a joke' but do you really think tormenting someone is a joke? It can lead to mental illness, do you realise how serious that is? What will it take to stop bullying? someone that you have bullied attempting suicide?! That is absolutely sick. 

Bullies often have their own insecurities but this is no excuse, just because you feel bad about yourself you shouldn't try to make others feel as bad as you do. It is NEVER ok to bully someone. Please make sure that you tell someone if you are getting bullied because it needs to be stopped before it gets out of hand.

July favourites

Hey guys here are a few of the things that I've been absolutely loving this month!

• Pretty little liars -Season 7 is absolutely amazing and i would definitely recommend watching it. It has kept me on edge throughout each episode.

•  Flower crowns -I have literally been living in flower crowns this month. They are so summery and make me feel as if I'm going to a festival

• Eco tools make up brushes -These brushes are not only free from animal cruelty, they actually make applying make up much easier.

• Macbook air- My dad bought me a new laptop and it is AMAZING! I love it so much. I definitely recommend this although it isn't the cheapest of laptops.

• Lush Whoosh shower jelly - As i have said previously this shower jelly has a fresh citrus scent which always leaves me feeling fresh after a shower.

Lush products review!

WHOOSH! SHOWER JELLY. This is literally AMAZING it smells so fresh like lemon and lime. I would definitely recommend it! It is a shower gel in the form of a jelly so you can rub it over your body. It can be chilled or frozen or used straight from the pot. I am definitely going to re-purchase this!

R&B HAIR MOISTURISER. This product is perfect for hair that is damaged and frizzy (like mine) It moisturises your hair and leaves it looking sleek and smooth, although it doesn't smell as good as other lush products.

CUP O' COFFEE FACE AND BODY MASK. I absolutely love this! Today was the first time that i have tried this and i can honestly it is worth the money. It  has grains of coffee that exfoliate your skin. I also love the strong smell of coffee that this product has and the brightening effect it has on your face. However when rinsing this off your face it does create a bit of mess , which looks like you've just spilt some coffee.

The good thing about lush products is that they are free from animal cruelty which makes me love lush even more! I would recommend all of these products :)
