Do you love freebies as much as being environmentally conscious? It's easy to rack up several products empties only for them to end up in the bin, but more beauty brands are becoming more eco-conscious such as Body Shop, Benefit, Kiehl's, Lush, Origins and Garnier to name a few, to exchange all your empty products for a reward.
The Back to M.A.C scheme has been around for a while, you can bring six old casings in exchange for a free lipstick of your choice (except the Viva Glam or one of their Limited Edition lipsticks) to any of their stores, counters or through the mail (their website will be able to tell you more information on the latter).
"Because we share your commitment to the environment, M·A·C accepts returns of its primary packaging through the Back to M·A·C Program. By returning six [6] M·A·C primary packaging containers to a M·A·C counter, you’ll receive a free M·A·C lipstick of your choice (excludes Viva Glam Lipstick and Limited Edition Lipstick) as our thanks to you. Please note, Lipsticks provided at no charge cannot be returned or exchanged".
The website also details items that are not accepted for the program such as sample containers, travel sizes, cosmetic applicators and tools, bulk wipes, refill pans for the Pro Palette, blotting sheets and limited edition products. Sometimes they will deny your exchange if you have depot your singular eyeshadow pots because it does not contain the metal pan, however, if you make a bit of a fuss and inform them that others and yourself have done it previously and the exchanged has worked they should still give you your free lipstick.
However, American or M.A.C Select users can benefit from the Back to M.A.C Extended program, and exchange their 6 containers for a free lipstick, eyeshadow or lip gloss as well. They also do not have to wait to finish a total of 6 containers, instead, members of the program can use the Back to M.A.C tracker to bring them in one by one until they have a total of 6. We definitely need to have this system here in the U.K.
When you start university, it is a whole different playing field from secondary school and college/6th form. University has much higher standards and want so much more out of you, and that should be expected, after all you pay £9K to do the degree you want to do.
Want is a very important word - what is the point of spending all your time and effort doing something you don't love? You will never get fulfilment from it later on in life and you won't especially have a passion for it.
Any how my point being is that at university you're on your own when coming to essay writing and learning how to be independent. But that doesn't mean you can't ask for help even though you're not being spoon fed information. I have listed below a couple of links that would help with things such as essay writing and tips on how to live at university independently. Have a look below!
Use a grammar checker, Grammarly is one of the best tools I have come across to check sentence structure and spelling. It is x10 better than word spell check!:
Use a plagiarism checker to make sure that you haven't copied other peoples work even if you didn't realise it, you never know what might pop up as copied or what you haven't referenced properly in your essay:
Brunel ASK Service is for the students from my university but the resources they provide applies to all students and I believe are free for all to use:
If you're finding it hard to reference, try this Harvard Referencing Generator all you need to do is input the details of what you're referencing and the generator will give you a bibliography and citations: http://www.citethisforme.com/harvard-referencing

Happy pre-Halloween my fellow readers!

Hi everyone, with Halloween coming up I thought it was a time to get festive with my posts. I edited these awesome images on this online photo editing programme/software that is FREE yes I said free and it is called 'picmonkey' I used to use it for all my media studies coursework and for my blog images as it is easy and great to use.
You don't need to install or download anything to your PC/MAC, you can use this programme online with any browser. I believe you can download this on many portable devices and follow them on almost all popular social media.
