Instagram is absolutely killing me at the moment. It feels like I put so much effort into it for absolutely nothing at all in return. I don’t think people get to see my posts and my likes are going down and down. Whenever I do get a new follower, I know they just want me to follow them back. Is there anyone genuine anymore?

Now I’m no expert (I only have 3 tattoos) but I thought I’d share the process I go through when getting a tattoo so you know what to expect.
Beauty: My First Ever Tarte Order
Tarte is one of those brands that I’ve admired from a distance, but never really dug into. I have seen it countless times in Sephora and yet somehow it never crept anywhere near the top of my wishlist.
