What I've Been Up To

What I’ve Been Up To

Hey guys, so it’s been officially two months since I last came on here. Which is quite a while, I can’t deny.

The idea of writing whilst also writing two different 2000 word essays and preparing myself for another week of placement stressed me out quite a bit and definitely put me off of it. So I thought I’d let you in as to what I’ve been up to during the past two months…

So I had a really bad…

Why Self-Care Is So Important

Why Self-Care Is So Important

Hey guys, I hope you’re well!

I just want to speak to you today as to why I believe that taking care of yourself is so so important in keeping our minds and body sane. Don’t worry, this is definitely not preachy and telling you how you should feel and why.

I feel like sometimes we get stuck, whether it’s in life or our minds feel a bit run down – like when you don’t know how to make a situation…

What I Learned in 2018

What I Learned in 2018

If I’m being completely honest, I feel as if 2018 went so quickly, even though a lot happened within it. From working somewhere I really didn’t enjoy for a good 6 months, to getting the balls to go back to university, I definitely learnt a lot the past year. I basically just want to a round-up post of what I learnt this past year, whether its about myself, other people or anything!

Being Myself

My Year | 2018

My Year | 2018

The past year has felt like it went all over the place for me. It’s been crappy, and it’s been alright – for the majority of it, I was rather unhappy, which I’ve mentioned a few times on here. I’ll go more into detail like I usually do for these posts, but I’m a traditional person which means this is my third annual ‘My Year’ post… which is so weird. I can’t believe I haven’t just decided to give…

It’s Been Too Long

Hey, so I’m fully aware that this has been my longest and most unintentional break from my blog to date. I’ve really been uninspired recently, which I don’t know why. This could be due to being back at university and it truly kicking in, being handed assignments after assignments and the stress of finding a placement. None of these are excuses though, I just genuinely haven’t felt inspired to…

5 Things To Do On A Rainy Day

So I’m fully aware that’s it’s been around a month since my last post, and honestly I’m just trying to readjust to being back at uni even though I am part time for this half of the year. It’s weird to be back, and I’ve already completed an essay within three weeks of starting which definitely threw me back in the deep end.

Today I thought I’d share something quite easy with you all, and make a…

My Kylie Cosmetics Lip Collection

My Kylie Cosmetics Lip Collection

First off, I have too much… I’m fully aware! I’m not like a die-hard Kylie Jenner fan, I just love matte lipsticks (and now the velvet ones too) and how long wearing they are. I must have bought my first one around 2 and a half years ago when there was only around 5 lip kits and now her brand has expanded into something much more than the perfect lip. I have a lot, and I’m ready to show the world…

8 Things I Can’t Live Without

8 Things I Can’t Live Without

Hey guys, I hope you’ve been enjoying my regular uploads over the past two weeks. I’ve really been trying my best to get back into the blogging game and actually make more of an effort with it as well, such as taking photos for each post and updating my Instagram page. I think my goal is to get at least two posts up a week, of course just one a week is completely fine but I really wanna get back…

How To Decorate Your Uni Room

How To Decorate Your Uni Room

Going to university is one of the biggest steps that you suddenly take in life, it is quite a shock to the system. Most people in their first year have the pleasure of being placed in halls, which did not happen at my university. Your room in halls tend to be smaller than the ones you find yourself in a shared house for second and third year, so I can definitely imagine the struggle of decorating.

My Night-Time Skincare Routine | 2018

My Night-Time Skincare Routine | 2018

After discussing my troubled skin last week, I thought it would be good to do a new updated night time skin care routine. It’s been almost 2 years since I last wrote about this and things have most definitely changed. I think I’ve now really found out what works for my skin type and what really gets off my makeup, without using too much product because of how sensitive my skin in. I reckon this…

My Holy Grail Makeup Products | 2018

My Holy Grail Makeup Products | 2018

Hey guys, so its time for me to come back with some good old beauty posts.

If you were unaware, I am a big lover of the makeup world and have a genuine passion for it. I would never say I’m great at doing makeup, but I don’t think I would continue a love for it if I was a bit crap! I watch so many beauty tutorials/reviews on YouTube and avidly follow makeup artists on Instagram. I’m poor though,…

Surviving That Time of the Month

Surviving That Time of the Month

Many girls out there, including myself, really struggle when it comes to that time of the month. The pain, the hormones, the bleeding – the whole damn thing, that for some people can last a whole week. My heart truly lies with those girls. I’ve dealt with such bad period pains where I have passed out from the pain, thrown up and been physically unable to move from my bed without crying. Vaginas…

My Struggle With My Skin | Spots

My Struggle With My Skin | Spots

So as you can guess, this post is going to be a bit of a weird one for me to write about. I’ve said on my blog before that I’ve always dealt with spots, especially on my chin, since the age of 12. There is no ‘cure’ for spots, they happen and you just have to deal with them – but like many people out there, it’s not so easy to just brush them aside and think ‘meh, that’ll go down in a few days’.…

Going Back to University

So, hey, it’s been a while. I’m not gonna play it cool and say that I just “haven’t had the time to sit down and write” when I most definitely have, I just haven’t been in the right head space and any time I opened my laptop to write, it was always something depressing and I don’t want that to be on my blog.

I’ve taken some time to myself recently since quitting my job at the beginning of July,…

Two Years Later

Well hello there! This is just going to be a quick one for you because from what I can see, thatgirlinwonderland.com turns 2 years old today! Which is completely and utterly crazy how I still find myself sitting here, loving to write posts and actually keeping something up for 2 whole years.

I know I slack off quite a bit especially recently, but I truly love the space I have created for myself…

My Favourite Makeup Products for a Night Out

My Favourite Makeup Products for a Night Out

Hello again you lot. I’ve been rather stressed out about everything so apologies, as per usual for the lack of posts. I’m kind of all over the place mentally at the moment, I’m struggling with some stuff that maybe I’ll touch on one day but for now I want to get myself back into the groove of blogging. This blog is honestly my safe place, and not posting makes me feel all weird inside and I have…

My “No Makeup” Makeup Look

My “No Makeup” Makeup Look

Hello everyone. So I’ve had some time off of writing posts as I needed some chill time at home when its my day off, and also some time to catch up with friends and get outside more so I apologise for the lack of posts recently… standard Alice though really. Anyway, I’m back, and ready to share with you all a pretty basic post which personally I do think would be better if I were to do a video…
