Hey dolls,
So it has been a WHILE since I posted on here.. I have been super busy with working on a few campaigns which you will all get to find out about soon.. HOWEVER this little post right here is about one campaign I did this summer..
On Tuesday June 27th, I was flown out to Malaga for a secret project with Feel Good Drinks. Feel Good Drinks are an independent soft drinks company based in the United Kingdom, it's owned by the creators of Vimto drinks and can be purchased in so many stores including Asda, Morrisons, Sainsbury etc.
They have a range of drinks from still to bubbly, and it is all 100% natural so not only is it healthy but tastes unreal too..
So back to the campaign, me and a few bloggers were contacted by the amazing team at Social Chain who work with influencers to get involved in a skinny dip.. yes you read that correctly.. A SKINNY DIP. I was sooooo shook at the thought of it because although I do promote lingerie/bikinis etc on my social media I am not the most confident person when it comes to my body. Everyone has their own little insecurities and flaws so of course this was daunting at first but I decided to take part because the whole aim for this campaign was to promote female empowerment, positive body image and how important looking after yourself is while driving awareness around Coppa Feel; Coppa Feel are a charity who promote breast cancer awareness.
Everything was paid for thanks to Feel Good Drinks, honestly they gave us the absolute most amazing experience there from taking care of us at the airport when we arrived to shooting and the event..
I arrived in Malaga and we were taken to a secret location which was an unreal mansion with a gorgeous private lake in the garden which is where the skinny dip took place. The whole day was super fun and I got to meet a bunch of lovely ladies and bloggers/influencers, literally had a fan girl moment over each and every one of them. I can honestly say I made some true long lifetime friends. It is amazing when you meet people with the same interests as you and you just click instantly.
Obviously the word skinny dip is pretty self explanatory but we basically had to get naked and jump into the lake.. I went in with Alisha LeMay, literally had to hold onto her hand so tight because I was so scared about jumping in and drowning (I'm so extra) lol.. After a whole day of filming we got to relax socialise eat and drink and then after we went back to the hotel.. The hotel was UNREAL..
The campaign had to stay a secret which is why if you follow me on social media like Instagram snapchat etc, I kept referring to it as "secret project/campaign". The day we could finally reveal everything was the night we were all invited to Manchester for the launch of the advert. We stayed at the Raddison Blu Edwardian, the most gorgeous hotel and loveliest staff..
The event was at Be Impossible Manchester, I got to see some of the girls who were at the skinny dip in Spain. It was such a surreal night, there was a photographer/videographer, never ending supply of prosecco, cocktails and food.. We got to watch the advert a few times before it went live on TV, youtube, and everywhere else..
After the event we got another goody bag (if you follow me on snapchat and Instagram you would have seen the first thank you gift Social Chain sent us), and then we went out around Manchester for some cocktails..
The following morning before heading home, me and a few of my blogger gals went to visit the Social Chain HQ. Honestly their office is amazingggggg, they have everything, a photo studio, bar, slide, cute little puppies.. Literally EVERYTHING you could wish for in one place..
Overall the experience was just unreal and I am so happy I got to be a part of something so amazing. I never thought this one thing could change my confidence for the better and honestly I would advice each and every one of you to do something that's out of your comfort zone because it'll 100% change your outlook on life. One of my greatest achievements..
