My Depression

2014-08-13T09:01:00.002+01:00

Hey guy’s

So this post I felt like I need to strip it back and go down to my roots and talk to you guys about something I don’t really talk about any that’s my depression!

Have to bear with me as I never talk about this as I sort of feel a bit ashamed buy it? If you get what I mean.

I have suffered with depression since I was the young age of 13 at the time I was at secondary school enjoying life really and then I don’t really know what happened I kind of hit rock bottom and couldn’t pick myself up out of it! I mean we all have our bad days right?

So from the young age I have been dealing with emotions I didn’t really understand and just been a bit of an emotional wreck.

Many of you may or may not know I left school at 14 this was partly to do with my depression and partly to do with being ill. From the age of 12 I pretty much lived in the doctors with little things like ear infections chest infections and sinusitis. I was put on medication by the doctor and had nothing but trouble I had constant blood test and then found out my liver wasn’t in an amazing condition so I was battling that as well so this made me feel even more depressed.

At 15 I discovered the women who brought me up (my aunt) had cancer and they couldn’t treat it! Her wish was to die at home so we had everything put into place so she could be looked after at home! I stepped up and cared for her every day while everyone was at work. The hospital gave her a week to live after she left hospital but she lived 8! She was with us to plan our Christmas and wrap all presents and unfortunately died on the 15^th December! From then on I was lost I couldn’t work out which way was up (if you get what I mean?) I didn’t feel I had a purpose I didn’t have anything to stick around for! I will be honest and I will admit I tried to take me life a few times. I won’t go into how or why but I had given up on myself.

As time moved in I wasn’t improving so eventually the doctors offered me medication so I went on it from 16/17 up until November last year! Shortly after coming off the medication my Nan was taken ill and was in hospital. It was only supposed to be a short term stay, turned into us unfortunately losing her in January this year.

Even though times were tough I struggled through and can say I still haven’t gone back on medication! Yes I have bad day (more than I have good) but I have learnt that you have to cherish every moment you have and enjoy what you have! Happiness isn’t given to you, you have to find it and work for it!

So here I am 21 and looking at life in a whole new view the depression hasn’t gone away, I just don’t let it control me anymore!

My Teeth Cleaning Routine

2012-12-21T22:27:00.001+00:00

Hey, So as you may know I work in a dentist and along the way in my journey to where I am now I’ve picked up a few tricks along the way. I used to swear by my good old trust manual toothbrush and whatever toothpaste was on offer at the time and I have to admit I didn’t really brush for 2 minutes like I should twice a day. So after a while I thought I’d take in some of the advice and change a few things. First off I went and brought myself an electric toothbrush because a) it does half the job for you b) most have built in timers anyways c) gives a more spot on clean. The tooth brush I invested in was only a cheap one as I thought it wouldn’t make much difference so I brought myself the Oral B vitality. I didn’t have many reasons to buy this tooth brush we just sold it at work and I thought hey if we sell it must be good.

also at work we encourage all our patients to floss and I felt a bit of a hypercritic telling people to floss and I didn’t so again I just picked up a floss we had at work and put it to the test I always thought it was a complete waste of time but ohh my days the difference is amazing I feel like I have nice clean gums all the time now.

while on the line of flossing I also tried out some brushes we sold at work called tepe brushes, they come in different size for different size gaps and again I didn’t really get the point but ohh my goodness I love them I always carry one in my purse now in case I get food caught or something they are amazing!!!

So at the beginning I admitted I never stuck to one toothpaste ever. But after getting a sample from work I got stuck on the oral b pro-expert I love it and it’s not that expensive either

after suffering a bit of sensitivity a while I go I was told by one of our dentist to use a high fluoride toothpaste so I invested in the Duraphat 5000 which you can only purchase from the dentist now I believe but it’s amazing it stop my sensitivity and worked wonders

so guys that was a very quick rundown on my daily dental care i will do a video on it soon and if u have a questions feel free to ask hope your all ok Kirstie-x

Hey,

So today is our last day in sunny Cornwall!

So we walked around the beach and harbour and looked in all the little shops ( as seaside shops are always nice to look around) and now as I'm writing this were just driving around looking at the scenery !

Hey, So long time no blog right? basically i forgot my password and kinda just gave up trying but ive just sat at work for the last 20 mins bored stiff so decided i was going to reset it and write something: :s As of what im not sure to be perfectly honest, i could do an update on me but thats pretty boring as all i ever do is work :(. I havent really been doing alot the last few months and havent been trying many new make up products but the few new things i have brought ive kind of been loving i might do a blog post when i get in from work later talking about them but as of yet im not sure? This kind of sounds as if im talking for the sake of talking, really im just sitting at my desk at work trying to keep my fingers busy while i wait for the day to get in full swing. So it may be friday but i really dont want to be working today we have threee dentists off and its just a really slow day. so if you guys are on twitter feel free to follow me and tweet me all day as im going to be bored stiff probably and if i dont reply staight away dont worry i will. so if you search either @miss_bumbles or @Kirstie101ox you'll find me Kirstie

My Favourite Buy's Of The Week

2011-08-30T14:50:00.000+01:00
hey girlies

so this week i was in a bit of a change mode so went out into town on the hunt for some new make up bits. So Here's My Favourite Buy's Of The Week

Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector:

So i picked this up in a wim really was £9.99 in superdrug and i had seen a few people use it and i have always wanted to try a BB cream.
I am so glad i picked this up its a great alternative to foundation.
It gave me a healthy glow while Moisturising my skin so thats a plus. it wasnt cakey and didnt leave my skin feeling sticky or anything like that.

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Natural
So this again was a wim really i had been looking into getting a MSF for a while and never really found a reason to but on a shopping trip on saturday i came across it, tried it out and fell in love with it. The colour i got was Medium Dark which i will say may be a bit dark for me in winter but thats ok I'm a little tanned at the moment so fits perfectly. I love how this looks on my skin, nice coverage and just amazing so glad i brought it

Last but not least i just want to say i tried these two products together and they work a dream together so if you have these two products i Recommend trying them together and seeing what you think.

Anyways i hope you all had a lovely weekend

Make Up Of The Week

2011-08-17T20:57:00.000+01:00
Hey Girlies
So its been a long time since i did a blog post so thought that i would do a make up of the week post, so here we go:

Rimmel brow pencil 001 dark brown: i have to admit at filling in brows never used to be my thing but now i cant not do it, and i lovee this pencil but im also looking or an alternative product so if you guys know any let me know.

Urban decay primer posion Sin: i love this product i love it gives u a nice shimmer base love love love it

Loreal volume million lash mascara: love this mascara has to be my all time favourite mascara the effect it gives my lashes is amazing.

Rimmel khol pencil 061 jet black: i never used to like this eyeliner so just chucked it in the draw and forgot about it and grabbed it the other day in a hurry and now really really love it.

Body Shop Lightening touch conncealer: i brought this concealer on a wim really was just looking for a thick coverage concealer and saw this so picked it up and is great for under the eyes

Benefit sugarbomb: this blusher is soo pretty looks amazing when the sun hits your cheeks to give you a nice shimmery glow.

Benefit Dallas: i loveee this bronzer i use this to contour looks really nice but you do have to blend it out

Revlon colourstay foundation 200 nude: this foundation has to be my all time favourite because you can build it up for a thick coverage or have a medium coverage

Collection 2000 sheer loose powder: i really just use this powder to set my foundation as its not to expensive and lasts me a really long time and does the job perfectly

Mac Retro speck: this eyeshadow has to be my all time favourite its a beautiful champaigne gold colour i use this all over the lid

Mac Sable: this shadow works great with most eyeshadows but i personally love putting it in my crease with retro speck to deepen out the eye

So that is my make up of the week guy
Hope your all doing ok

My Excuse For The Lack Of Blog Abuse

2011-07-02T23:12:00.000+01:00
Hey Lovlies

So again im making excuse's for not blogging (i know right all the time) i seem to be going through stages of wanting to blog then running out of things to say. and im jsut slightly lazy i think.

So in the month of June i was slightly busy. Start of the month was my aunties birthday (who is no longer with us) then not long after a member of the family passed away from leukemia so wasnt really in the mood to sit at a computer and write thing's, and didnt really want to talk about it.

I've also been lacking in video's because i'm that rubbish, just havent had much to smile about and theres nothing worse then someone with a face like a slapped arse filming a video. I know thats no excuse for not blogging but im sorry.

i hope you guys are all well and i shall be back soon

Hey guys

So I'm stuck on the m1 in traffic as a mobile office fell off a lorry and hit another lorry (painful huh?) so u thought I'd dig out the iPad and do a quicky blog post. So alliance can see is tree's and cars have lovely lorry drivers talking to me witch is nice as were in our race van so we get classed as a trucker haha, so yeah there's people walking around and the radio really not being any help were between the two jcts we just missed the junction before so now were stuck ohh the joy so if you follow me on twitter ask me questions I've been sat here now for nearly 2 hours lol. But you know luck of the draw I guess lol. Ever played the number plate name game?? I've been playing that but as I'm seeing no new cars it's getting a tad boring haha.

Anyways my lovely people I'm going to go back to talking to my lorry drivers. I've moved about 200 yards in the last hours lol looks like I'll be here for a while.

Loves you all

Valentines Day Make Up Sort Out

2011-02-15T11:13:00.000+00:00
Hey Guy's

So Valentines day has now been and gone and i spent my valentines day sorting through my make up. I was surprised to see how many pink lipsticks i have for someone who doesn't wear lipstick and doesn't wear bright pink, I'm more of a baby pink kind of girl. So after i sorted out my make up it got me thinking to how much of my make up i actually use. After a few looks through i realise that i just buy make up for the sake of it and don't always use it. So I've decided to Switch up my make up more each week and experiment just to use most of these product's. I will keep you up to date

Tony and Guy 38mm tourmaline tong

2011-01-27T21:59:00.000+00:00
Hey Guy's

So i was out the other day just looking at hair tools and for soo long i have been after a thick barreled curing tong and i've seen a few people use this one before so thought why not ill give it a shot. first impressions were good until i went to use them and i just ended up with just a kink. so i thought after a day with my hair i'd try again so i did. and this time worked perfectly. I had great fun playing around with this product and think its a good tong for loose curls/waves. i also thinking im going to do a review video on my beauty channel if you guys wanna see so let me know :)
Much Love
Kirstie-x
