_________________________________________________________________________________

This books takes you on the journey of understanding depression as well as opening your eyes to the wider world and much of what we take for granted (especially if you do not suffer with a mental illness). This story is unique to Matt as it is the story of how he overcame his depression, his low points and he makes it known that it can happen to anyone and it it nothin to be ashamed of. 
I found this so inspiring and motivational, it opened my eyes to what other people might be dealing with and to think that everyone has something going on and to just be kind and supportive!

I would definitely recommend this book to anyone, despite the morbid name this book is anything but! Matt writes in a way that is so carefree and positive, which is quite rare for this topic. This positivity gives me hope and made me feel like I now how a better understanding of how to encourage people and to make them feel welcomed in my presence. 

This book has definitely impacted my life for the better!

If you are a follower of mine (especially on instagram) you already know that I am a huge fan of L'oreal's new skincare range!! After it being recommended to me by a close friend I thought that I would try it out, and now I am hooked!

I do feel like my skin has a newer glow/brightness to it as well as clearness however it is subtle. But I have definitely noticed a change in skin texture and feel, my skin feels smoother and my pores are smaller but still there. I am also using the charcoal face wash, which I love as well and it smells like fresh heaven. Now to the holy grail for all those with combination to oily skin!!! Drum roll pleaseeeeeeeeee
