5 Easy Tips For Saving Money


1. Create a savings account.
One of the first things you should consider when you start saving money is to set up a separate bank account which is different to one you use on a daily basis. Everyone's experienced that one purchase which was completely unnecessary, and it was bought because of that £20 lying around in your bank account. Another mini bank account you can have at home is a can or pot where you put loose change and after a couple of months you can take it to your local supermarket and get it changed - it soon adds up.

2. Set a monthly budget.
Last year I used to set myself a £15 budget for each month, tbh with me that didn't work because being a beauty guru that's not really a reasonable amount because there's little products you can get for £15, especially if you're hooked on high end products. If you do this then make sure you consider a reasonable amount which allows you to buy enough things but doesn't allow too much money to slip out your bank.

3. You've got a best friend called DIY.
DIY everything... well most things. This saves so much money over the months, if you opt for cheap things and then decorate them yourself with washy tape, pens and stickers which definitely works out cheaper than buying a new product. It's way fun starting from scratch as well, so best of both worlds. 

4. Look out for coupons, deals and vouchers.
Download voucher apps, google them, etc... There's so many vouchers which are always going around which can save you minimum £10 a month! 

5. Clear out old things.
This is something which is hard if you're anything like me - a hoarder! I can't just sell things straight away, I debate it for months and then finally put it back to place or finally give in and Depop it (beautybybeth on Depop). There's many websites and shops which allow you to sell items, so there's no reason not to sell something which you don't use anymore.

How To: Stay On Top Of Tasks, Blogging and Youtube

It's Beth here and the summer holidays are officially over - which means more work. Unfortunately, it's time to get that piece of paper in your planner covered in homework which we need to do for the following week, along with filming, editing and uploading videos, making sure our blogs are up to scratch and the best they can be, and the main thing having some time to chill and socialise with our favourites.







My number one tip for all of you sitting GCSE's in this upcoming year is to stay organised and don't let everything hide away in your drawers until the night before the due date.


We've all got a lot of things which need doing every day, however there just aren't enough hours in a day to achieve them, therefore I've found things which help keep me on track.


I can not stress enough how much calendars and to do lists are useful. Whether it's a to do list on your phone, paper or laptop - it is a perfect way of making sure everything you need to do gets done. Personally I like the old school way and having all of my jobs on paper. My to-do lists are my best friends because I'm a sucker for putting pen to paper. Something which I should do is prioritise the most important tasks and put the at the top of the list. You can then easily see what you need to do before getting distracted by something more entertaining. 

If you prefer a more technical one, a perfect app is Any.Do, your to-do list can also be seen on your computer. It's easy to use, easy to read and easy to get your job's done!
A bad habit which I have is that I want everything done at the same time and all at once, but that can never happen. I never think about waiting to do the least important last, until I am overloaded with things to do. Like I said I don't prioritise my work, which is bad because I don't benefit from it and it makes me very, very stressed! 


Something which I always tell myself is that "I can't do this because I don't have enough time". But really I do... I just need to use it wisely. No matter how much we want the days to slow down, they never will and not another hour will be added, so we have to deal with it and make the most of what time we do have.


What's your most preferred way of doing to-do lists?

Forever Repurchases






MAC Please Me Lipstick
My obsession with this lipstick began the first day I got it and a year later it is still number one on my list. I've been through so many pink lipsticks but this is still there top at number 1. I don't even know what my makeup collection was without this lipstick.


Maybelline Lash Sensational 
This mascara is my new love. To be honest with you beauty gurus I don't think you're going to get any better than this!


Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
Say no more. I'm just going to skip a massive paragraph telling you how amazing this is because everyone has heard at least 19325 people talk about this.


Prada Candy L'eau
I can't get over how gorgeous this scent is. If I had to choose the fragrance for a bottle, it would be this one right here. It's the nicest smell ever!


Maybelline Colour Tattoo On And On Bronze
I don't know how my eyes would cope without this beauty. This is by far my favourite single eyeshadow and if you haven't had this in your collection at some point, then you don't know what you're missing!


LUSH Fresh Face Mask: Cupcake

My last one I picked up expired whilst I was on holiday and the first thing I had to do when I went to town was to pick one of these up. My skin felt like it was in rubbish condition and my spots started coming out again, this week while I've been using Cupcake, the spots have seemed to shrink and lose their colour (meaning going away and losing the redness). I love it so much and it's definitely one of my holy grail skin care products. 

What's your number one repurchased product?
