There's a time to be nice & a time to be fierce.

1. WHENEVER you cream/moisturise your face & neck moisturise up using upward strokes, dont drag your skin downwards because it’s best not to drag the skin on your face down in any way.

2. PRODUCTS that contain alcohol are often way too strong for teenage skin. You can tell if a product is too strong if it dries out your skin and leaves your skin feeling really tight. It’s good to look at the ingredients in the in products you use.

3.KEEP your skin clean. Remove any make-up before you go to bed. If you wear foundation you’ll need to care for your skin more because foundation blocks your teeny tiny pores.

4. CHANGE your pillow case regularly because what’s the point of cleansing your beautiful face before bed If you’re gonna put your face on a nasty pillowcase that hasn’t been changed in months.Yuk!

5. STRESS, dehydration (lack of water), too much artificial sugar, binge drinking, smoking, drugs, not enough physical exercise can have a negative affect on your mind and body but also on your skin.

6.WE all have different skin types. Don’t follow anyone else’s basic skin care routine just take the time to understand your skin type and do what is best for your skin.

Thank you to our friends at QTI Beauty for these amazing skincare tips.

Tulisa was arrested and bailed this week after being accused by a The Sun of Sunday who said she introduced their reporter to a drug dealer.

Some people are now saying that she is a really bad role model to her thousands of teenage girls fans. However her rags-to-riches tale has been an inspiration.

Despite all the family problems growing up and leaving school with no qualifications, she found her talent, joined a band, became an X factor judge and launched a solo career. 

Anyone who has family problems at home knows just how horrible and hard it is. I think she’s done really well for herself considering all the obstacles she’s had to overcome.

I must say one thing that really irritates me is how people are super quick to attack Tulisa. I’d love to see the people cussing her use their time, energy and tweets to raise awareness and help solve some of the problems drugs cause in our society.

As a society we could definitely do more to prevent young people from the misery of drug addiction that’s for sure.Can someone please tell me what good calling Tulisa a ‘drugdealer’ ‘chav’  and ‘council estate barbie’ gonna do? Nothing.

if convicted Tulisa could face a £££ fine or a prison cell; this story is a warning to anyone who may need a reminder of the danger of setting up a drug deal.

1.EVERYDAY you make hundreds of choices both consciously and subconsciously (the part of the mind that we’re not fully aware of which influences our actions and feelings) that shape your day. Your choices have power! Some choices will shape your entire life.

 2.OFTEN choices made in the heat of emotion are best left for some other day. Avoid making long term decision based on a temporary emotion. For example: avoid making important decisions when you’re H.A.L.T (hungry,angry,tired or lonely)

 3”.NO one else can make your choices for you. Your choices are yours alone. They are as much a part of you as every breath you will take, every moment of your life.” Shad Helmstetter

 4.THINK very carefully before you choose. Aim to make choices that you won’t regret in the morning.Life is all about making choices so always do your best to make the right ones, and always do your best to learn from the wrong ones.

 5.WHEN you have to make a choice and don’t make it, that is in itself a choice.  ~William James

 6. THE dictionary defines choice as an act of selecting or making a decision when faced with two or more possibilities.
