Looking back at each decade, I feel both ‘older’ and ‘younger’, I see the change in my features, the change in my way of life, the change in my personality and the experience itched on my face. I am grateful for the life I have lived thus far and excited for the life I am yet to live. 
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

2026 - 39, (Home, England), I am ready for this final year before my 40s but also ready for this next decade. 
2016 - 29, (Oslo, Norway), this decade was about self discovery and building the life I dreamt about. The life that I am super proud of and truly grateful to be living. This decade, I built my financial life and in later years choose to heal from the trauma gained in the last decade and now I feel well equipped for the future. 
2006 - 19, (Glasgow, Scotland), I thought I was grown (look at the cheekbones 🤣🤣) and ready for the world, chiiiild was I wrong, let’s just say, I am still resolving the trauma the decade brought me but I am grateful because I met my best friends and made decisions for the future I wanted to have. (Spoiler alert - I did better than I dreamed). 
1996 - 9, (Home, Zambia) this was my birthday but my little sister insisted she had to be the one in the middle. The only way we knew whose birthday it was, was by standing in the middle but this year I remember baby sister crying her eyes out and refusing 🤨
1988 - 9 months, (Chililabombwe, Zambia) although my mother looks tired and traumatised😟, I know I was loved and happy.

{Review} Summer with Scholl

A July Dreamer (1)

Summer is here and it’s time to bring out those gladiator sandals, open toed shoes and your best wedges in town. I love summer so much since I am a summer baby but one thing that puts me off is having or seeing someone with cracked feet. I do not know what it is about cracked feet that annoys me so much but it does, all year round I make it my mission to ensure that my feet are crack free and look as presentable as possible in my open flat shoes. Though I do not usually paint my nails (I ain’t got time for that) when summer comes I know I need to get my toe nails done. A few weeks ago I shared with you an addition to my nail care collection the toenail clippers from Clyppi which are really strong pair of toenail cutters. I have another addition to my collection, feet products from Scholl the “Scholl Party Feet invisible gel cushions & Scholl Dry Skin Instant Recovery Cream“.

Scholl Party Feet invisible gel cushions ~ When I started university back in 2009 I was introduced to the world of clubbing and wearing high heels. I loved my heels and still do but after a while I started to get uncomfortable in my heels and used to annoy me big time. Then one of my good friends introduced me to invisible cushions and let me just say they worked wonders and I loved wearing them in my heels but almost always one thing always seemed to happen, they would loose there stickiness and then fall of making it uncomfortable for me when I was out and about in heels. I have been trying the scholl party feet invisible gel cushions and I must say I am very impressed, not only are they ultra slim they are so comfortable and easy to put in my heels. I definitely recommend them for those party goers or those who wear heels regularly.

Scholl Dry Skin Instant Recovery Cream… ~ As I mentioned early I am not a huge fan of cracked heels so it has been a pleasure putting the dry skin recovery cream to the test and so far I will say I am impressed. The cream is white in colour, very smooth and does not have a funny smell like some creams I have tried in the past. The cream contains Deep hydrate formula which exfoliates dead dry skin and allowing special moisture which penetrates deep into the upper skin which gives instant results of gentle softening and smoother looking skin. I am happy with the product as I have been using it for almost a week now and my feet has never been better. I definitely recommend it for those with dry skin and want to have nice looking feet, you can read more HERE.

How are you taking care of your feet this summer

    I’ve always wondered about those party feet and whether they were any good. It’s been a while since I’ve been partying though so I don’t think I will be needing them soon, unfortunately.

    I always use Scholls each time I have an event and have to wear heels. The invisible cushions are great from my open toe shoes.They are truly a lifesaver. I am definitely going to give the cream a try too. Thanks for sharing

    Scholl is pretty good, I don’t currently use them, but those probably work very nicely!

    These invisible gel cushions are amazing! I was so struggling to wear my high heels, until I have discovered it! Indeed, very good for girls, who love wearing high heels.

      Definitely love the invisible cushions, I had them for my graduations in my killer heels and I was amazed at how good they were.
