Doodle Diaries

Hello! I have returned after a fairly long disappearance, and I know I know, i'm terrible! Since i've been gone I have altered my illustration style slightly and learnt some new tricks along the way. I am really enjoying doodling at the moment, so here is a little update on some new scribbles of mine.

"FOXES" - a request from one of my followers on tumblr

I bought some daffodils recently, they are currently in bloom next to my window

My outfit on March the 2nd, the weather was lovely for the time of year

Bangkok, for a tea project!

"Can you draw some mountains? I love mountains" - another tumblr request

I am currently creating a small book on Greenland

Girl stuff #internationalwomensday

Lavender - anon request on my tumblr blog

Mooses! A pretty cool idea from a follower

As you can see, I have become an avid fan of drawing with ink and adding color on Photoshop. I find the ink gives a lot more personality to my lines that I struggled to get with fineliner.

5 Autumn Favourites

✧

The nights are getting darker and the leaves are falling to the ground, ah autumn. I do love this season, it is a shame it doesn't last too long. There is nothing more satisfying than feeling some crisp autumn air on your face as you leave the house. I have been using a mixture of skin and body products this season, so I thought I would share!

Tea Tree Water - LUSH

My skin has been playing up recently so something had to be done. Anything with tea tree seems to suit my skin and calms it down, and this does just that. I spritz it on my face after cleansing in the evening and let it absorb. In the mornings before I apply my make up I spray it onto a cotton pad and wipe away any left over make up from the night before, as well as calming any redness. I love LUSH skincare products, and you always know what you are putting on your face.

Hemp Hand Protector - The Body Shop

Due to the cold autumn winds my hands have been cracking and becoming fairly dry. I had heard good reviews about The Body Shop's "Hemp hand protector" so I decided to try it out for myself. I find that this is perfect and really helps soothe brittle skin. This product is also popular with males, and with my boyfriends hands feeling rough this will be perfect for him too. 

Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion - Clinique

I have always had dry skin around blemishes and red areas, but with the change in weather they have become more obvious. I picked up this little bottle of joy when I was back home and I would like to thank my past self for doing so. This works wonders when applied to dry areas just before you apply your make up, it stops those annoying dry spots which can ruin your hard crafted foundation efforts. I would definitely recommend investing in this stuff, as a little goes a long way! 

Nails "Domestic Goddess" - Topshop

This color just says 'Autumn'. You can't go wrong with a Topshop nail color; they dry quickly and last for a good amount of time at a decent price. I have been wearing this color for the past week and love it, its rather classy in a way. (Color of photo is a more vivid than in real life)

Sweet Mint Lip Balm - EOS

Dry hands, dry face and now dry lips! I have been using this EOS for the past 3 months and won't be turning to another lip balm any time soon. It provides a good amount of hydration without that slippery lip finish. I have been reaching for this a lot more often this season.
