Having Blogger Block?!?

It's a Tuesday morning in May when I write this and to be honest I have no idea what to write. I have no inspiration of what to write about; I look round my room and all the ideas I can think of are boring or I can't think of any. To be honest I never really had blogger block in the past but at the moment I am suffering from it (I'm making it sound like a disease).

When I get home from school all I seem to do is relax, revise and watch Netflix. I don't watch much YouTube anymore, which I think is one of the reasons why I haven't got any inspiration. If I wrote blog posts about my life it would be so boring as I have no exciting storytimes and nothing interesting happens. 

Writing this mini blog post has helped me think of some new blog post ideas which I can do such as an After School Routine and a Current Favourites but I won't promise anything as I'll probably get bored writing them and give up. In my draft folder I have 2 draft posts but I haven't scheduled them yet as I haven't been bothered to take the pictures of them and I wrote the posts in March.

Hopefully in the summer holidays I'm going to write a lot of blog posts because I'll need them when I go back to school in September due to the fact that I'm going to be in year 11 and probably have no spare time! 

If any of you have had experience with blogger block (I'm still making it sound like a disease) let me know what you did to overcome it because I don't want to be forcing out content that I don't like but I really want to write. In the meantime, I have been posting on Twitter (@TheLipInsider) and Instagram (@thelipstickinsider) so if I'm not posting on here I'll be posting on either/both of them.

Sunday Shopping Haul | #1

Personally I don't really like writing big hauls but I still want to show you what I've bought recently so I've decided to do smaller hauls. They'll probably contain a few new items which I've bought and I'm really excited about. I actually have a lot of new stuff which I never showed you (due to never writing a haul I had planned) so maybe I'll need to do a current favourites?.... 
 Bright Pink Cropped Hoodie- I already this exact hoodie but a brown version and I really like that hoodie and I love pink so this seemed perfect for me. I haven't worn it yet (I only bought it less than 24 hours ago) but I'm really excited to.
This was £7 from Primark 

Vaseline Spray Moisturiser in Cocoa Radiant- My beloved Victoria's Secret Pink body lotion is nearly finished and as I haven't been near a Victoria's Secret recently I haven't been able to buy one. However I have used this one before and it's probably my favourite from the drugstore and I love the spray!
This was £3.29 from Boots (on half price)

Radox Feel Pampered Bath Soak- When I use a Lush bath bomb I don't like using a Lush bubble bar aswell so I decided to buy another bottle of bath soak so I can still have bubbles when using a Lush bath bomb; I refuse to have a bath unless it has bubbles in, that's how stubborn I am.
This was £1 from Boots 

Dragon's Egg Bath Bomb- I've never actually had this bath bomb before but I've heard good things about it so that's why I picked it up. I'm not really a fan of the citrus scent so I'm hoping it will smell nicer when in the bath.
This was £3.95 from Lush

Intergalactic Bath Bomb- This is one of my all time favourite bath bombs and I used it the day before I went shopping so I decided to pick a new one up so I have one in my stash. This creates so many lovely colours in the bath and that's why I like it so much!
This was £4.25 from Lush 

The Comforter Shower Cream- When I go to Lush I only buy bath bombs and bubble bars (apart from Snow Fairy at Christmas) so I decided to buy this shower cream called The Comforter. I expected it to smell like the bubble bar of the same name but it doesn't really but I'm still excited to use it.
This was £4.95 from Lush 

That's all that I bought last time I went shopping. I did actually go shopping the day before but all I bought was 2 revision guides and a repurchase of a mascara so I thought there was no point showing you. Make sure you go and follow my Instagram (@thelipstickinsider) and Twitter (@thelipinsider) for more on me!
