September favourites


Hello guys I Hope that you are all doing well ;) Today I will be sharing with you my September favourites. Keep on reading!



Make up

Loving this make up brand at the moment so much !! Its animal cruelty free and a couple of make up stores have just opened maybe a bit more than a month or so. There are many colours to choose from and the price is quite convenient and affordable. Cant wait to buy a darker colour for this season



Koko K

Fran gave me this lipkit and its my first time owning a beauty product from Kylie Jenner. I really love the lipkit in general, the consistency, the scent, the matte texture and that it is very long lasting.


Fashion

Bought this skirt back in September and I wasn’t too sure if I should buy it or not . Infact I remember asking Fran if I should buy it or not and I ended up buying it. I bought the skirt for a very good price from New look, not too sure if it is still there now but you will find replicas of it for sure ;)


Jewellery

I remember seeing this necklace at berska and not having enough money for it so I had went next day to buy as I wanted it so badly and I am glad that I did buy because I wear this necklace too much.


Music video
The chainsmokers- closer ft Halsey

Been listening to this song all day everyday during the month of September. Not entirely my fault because it’s number one worldwide at the moment on Spotify .



That is it for today’s September favourites . I hope that you liked this blog post talk to you next time.



Love,

How To Go Vegan

Hey dolls today I'm going to be showing you some steps and tips on going vegan. Veganism definitely benefits animals, the environment and of course our own health, so I definitely suggest you at least consider it.
It is not something that has to happen overnight especially if you are used to eating meat, dairy and eggs. You can cut things little by little, or consider being an 80% vegan. 

The first step would definitely be to educate yourself through research, documentaries, tips from fellow vegans....
Gary Yourofsky's video called The Best Speech You Will Ever Hear has some really good and eyeopening information.
You can also watch other youtube videos like  Cowspiracy, Farm To Fridge, Earthlings... As well as youtubers such as The Vegan Activist and That Vegan Couple.
For some recipe videos The Vegan Corner has some really good ones. 
You can also find a ton of recipes online and on apps such as Pinterest. 

After you have gathered enough research start making small changes daily towards a plant based diet. As I mentioned earlier you don't have to go vegan overnight, although some people manage to do so.
In the beginning it can take a little extra time and effort until you get used to it, but it is so worth it in the end. ( vegans save about 200 animals a year 😉 ) 
Veganism doesn't have to be expensive if you eat a mainly plant based whole food diet - potatoes, rice, beans and pulses, fruits and vegetables.
If you like though you can find a lot of meat and cheese replacements (these are more on the pricier side). They aren't the healthiest option but you don't have to limit yourself completely from them.  

After you've altered your diet you can focus on clothes, bags, cosmetics etc
Veganism is not only about refraining from eating meat and animal products but also from using animals for clothes, shoes and bags (leather and fur) as well as not buying shampoo, lotions, make up etc from brands that test on animals. 
You can find plenty of clothes, shoes and bags that still look great but that use synthetic leather and faux fur. 
Make up brands such as tarte, urban decay, nyx, too faced, becca, ABH, Charlotte tilbury and many more don't test on animals. 

Don't worry if you make a mistake along the way because it is not a matter of perfection. You are already making a great impact 😀 
I hope that you found this post informative and useful. There is alot more to say in reality but I didn't want to make the post super long. Let me know if you want any other information or a more in depth post in the comments below and I'll talk to you next time! Have a great week lovelies

Xoxo,
Fran
