CELEBRATING ONE YEAR OF LIFE OF EMILY

30 July 2017

Celebrating one year of Life Of Emily 

Life Of Emily has officially turned one and I wanted to make this post to thank each and every one of you for not only taking the time to read but also leaving me lovely comments to read. 

I am slightly disappointed how irregular I have been with how often I post and wish to post so much more content in year 2 of ‘Life Of Emily’. I feel that blogging takes up a huge amount of time, not realizing this at first. The important thing is to keep going no matter what and I realize it's okay to put my blog on pause for a moment as I want to publish the best content I possibly can. I love being part of the blogging community with little Twitter chats here and there and can't forget how fabulous the readers are. 

I know I have a long way to go, I really want to improve my writing skills, as well as photography and creativity. 

Again, thank you for taking your time to visit my little corner of the internet and HAPPY BLOGAVERSARY TO ME!

BETTY BOX: REVIEW

29 July 2017


I love subscription boxes. The element of surprise makes opening them feel like your birthday or Christmas and is a great way to discover new brands, products and items you may not have picked up or bought otherwise.



Betty Box* is a monthly period subscription designed to make that time of the month that bit easy with a choice of delivery dates to suit you. Betty box is a teen version of the pink parcel. Betty Box isn't just a period subscription box is a place where you can find everything and everything from body, lifestyle and people to style.

Each box contains a mix of pads, tampons and liners depending on which you select when designing your box online. Inside there is a selection of beauty products, sweet treats for a much needed pick me up when you're feeling down on the time of the month. 

Whats in the box?
I kindly got sent the July box and this is whats inside 

Candy Kittens Sour Blueberry Gourmet sweets 

Zero Crease Hair Tie 

Balance me pure skin facial wash 

Lisa angel shape bracelet 

Korres bergamot and pear body milk 

anatomicals deep conditioning hair pack 

Scrub love coconut affair coffee scrub 

L'oreal colour riche nail polish

Box for Late - Containing your chosen sanitary products 

Box for Night- Containing thicker towels or tampons for at night.



How does it work?
You simply go onto the Betty box website and simply select what brand of tampons and/or pads you would like to receive in your Betty Box, you then choose your delivery date out of three options, then wait for your box to arrive each month. If you are unhappy which I doubt you will be then you can cancel your subscription at any time. 

How much does the Betty box cost & Where can I subscribe?
You can get your 1st Betty box for just £6.99 and then £10.50 per month after which I think is still a great value! 

Overall thoughts 
I was really impressed with the Betty Box. It has got every thing you need for your period, it’s super easy and you don't even have to take a trip to the pharmacy or shop and you get a lot of sanitary products. I adore the design and colourful packaging.
