Hi all!
I’m back with another product review from Social Soup. You can check out my other ones here. In keeping with the usual theme, I want to give my honest thoughts about the item, then have a quick discussion about a random topic. For this post, I will write about my new tattoo and the message behind it. Without further ado, let’s get into it!
I was given the opportunity to review the new Femfresh product, choosing between the Soothing Wash and Daily Wash. I chose the Soothing Wash. It smells incredible, with hydrating cranberry and cornflower extracts. It has also been dermatologically and gynecologically tested, so you know it’s medically approved. I really wish products like this had existed when I was going through puberty. We are always told not to use soaps or body washes down there, so it’s nice having something safe to apply in the shower – not worrying about the repercussions. It is 100% soap free, hypoallergenic and pH-balanced for intimate skin. I highly recommend it.
Now onto the discussion topic! On May 22nd (the day before my birthday), I received my second ever tattoo. I had been planning on getting it done since last year, but hadn’t told anyone. I got “long story short, i survived” inked on my left forearm. This is a lyric from Taylor Swift’s song: Long Story Short, off her album, Evermore. I won’t go too into detail, but basically, it represents all the hardships I have been through in life and have overcome. It highlights my strength and resilience, as well as an ownership of my dark history. It’s very empowering. I got my first tattoo at 18 (the Gemini symbol II – on my hip) and waited until my 33rd birthday, to get my next one. Nothing else had felt right, until now. I absolutely love it. It carries multiple meanings and layers.
I hope you enjoyed this post. Thanks for reading!
Peace & Love xoxo
