Nominated by Siree and Talyssa of The Hidden Thimble, thanks so much you girls are beauts. 










1. What’s the story behind your blog name?

My Blog name came from a last minute made up story to make a little girl smile, the story was based on the adventures of a little fox called Jayybear who thought she was a big ferocious bear. It picked up as a nickname and a username for most of my social media. I always felt like occasionally I was that little fox taking on the world. 

2. What does a normal day in your life look like?

A normal day means a day at work or uni followed by study for a few hours, after a good feed I finish the night with a cup of tea and browse through youtube videos or the blogosphere to see what's going on. Most nights if I'm not held up by studying I'll be blogging later at night or editing photos. My favorite thing to do is to look up trending restaurants or reviews for my Eatventures blog. 

3. Tea or coffee?

 Both. Start the day with a strong coffee followed by an English Breakfast tea half way through the morning. Later in the afternoon top it off with another coffee and end the night with another tea. Current favorite brews are Sydney Breakfast, Gorgeous Geisha and Sleep Tight (T2 teas) 

4. Why did you start your blog?

I wanted to get involved in such a avid and fun community and get amongst the world of friendly faces. I was excited to share my opinions and ideas about the products that are available out there to the community, I was heavily influenced and inspired by bloggers already and this was my way to give back to their inspiration. 

5. What’s the best advice you have ever gotten?

To write from the heart rather than what is trending. By letting go of what everyone else is doing and doing your own thing is how I found myself blogging in the first place. 

6. What is your favorite post that you’ve written? (Please provide link!)

My favourite post is Alleydays because it includes a couple of my closest friends messing around with cameras and trying to get the best shot. It's a past time of ours to take photos no matter the occasion, way before social media took over and we've continued to do the same ever since. 

7. What is the most exciting thing about blogging for you?

The most exciting thing has always been learning new things and seeing my readers respond to my posts. It always feels like a ramble into thin air until I get recommendations, meet bloggers or receive comments. And all these things blow my mind away, because I'd never imagine my writing on a screen could bring me somewhere or influence me or others so much. 

8. What’s your favourite social media platform?

Definitely instagram.
It's such an easy app and there's updates all the time to see what's new and what's trending.
The app makes it super easy to go through and explore in this app compared to anything else. 

9. Do you think of yourself as an introvert or an extrovert?

200% Introvert.
Sitting behind a computer screen is the most social i get most nights and blogger meet ups are extremely terrifying to me. If being a blogger has taught me anything, it's to conquer my fears. 

What I'm Wearing:

Ruby Woo - Mac

I chose Philippines shirt and Lachlan chose a shirt for Visayas, the majority of the crisis affected this region leaving 1.9 million homeless and 600000 displaced.

Sometimes we gain from the more we lack and this product talk by Nuffnang is based on that theory.

No Fragrances

*Refers to Ethyl Alcohol

This is bliss to anyone that has extremely dry and sensitive skin like me,  I've recently been trialing out the Dove Pure Deodorants and I've never been so glad to see the word no. 
The four things that Dove Pure lack are in fact some of the major ingredients listings in other popular anti-perspirants and generally cosmetics as a whole that can sometimes cause irritation to peoples skin.

What makes Dove Pure stand out is that it's targeted for people like me who often don't know they bought the wrong deodorant until it's too late. Irritation, dryness, itchy-ness and white mark's aren't the cutest and I'm always happy to find a product that can avoid all of these!
Using this product it's clear that simple is best, Dove Pure contains all the right essentials nothing more nothing less.

The product itself is a light formula that glides on smoothly and smells pretty much like nothing, which is great when you realize later in the day that you don't smell like anything either (in the good way of course!).I've worn Dove Pure on the way to uni and all day at work and come home confident and sweat free. Personally I love it when deodorants are fragrance free because I often feel like, even if it doesn't make any difference, that it really highlights your perfume for the day!
Having a fragrance free deodorant means that even if you reapply, you won't clash your 'anti-sweat' smell with your 'i'm amazing' scent, often when this happens you get this weird confusing overbearing smell.

One of the best things about Dove, especially for my terrible skin condition, is that the product contains 1/4 of moisturising cream keeping you soft and well nourished for the day.
Between the roll on and the aerosol, there's no real difference in results. Personally I don't have any preference, although if it is a going to be a long day or if I'm going to travel for a bit, I'll usually grab the roll on to shove in my bag.
For a small container it can last you a long time, so if you've got sensitive skin and have a few issues trying to find the it deodorant, I'd give this a go.
