Hello and welcome back!! During this past week I decided to take to my Instagram stories to ask all my lovely followers what they thought about veganism today and what assumptions or thoughts they perceived about it. For myself personally, I am on this journey for the interest of bettering my health and exploring healthier food options, so my focus and idea is on health and wellbeing.

Previously I have done polls asking my followers, if they would ever consider going Vegan and the response was 49% said yes, they would and 59% said no they would not. My follow up question to this was a question box where they could comment their reasons for what is stopping them becoming vegan. The responses were similar, and I am so pleased as to how many of you interacted and responded! 

Many said about the inconvenience it causes as it would mean their family would have to cook separate meals as many of my followers live at home, which is a very valid reason. Others stated how they enjoy meat and dairy products too much and could not simply let go which again is very understandable as that is a big part of my usual diet too. People also responded by saying how they wouldn’t like any of the alternatives, the expense of vegan products and how its not practical for them and the timing, as it takes time to prepare and organise meals.


Another poll I put up was if they think being vegan is a “trend” in which 68% said yes and 32% disagreed. I asked this because I personally think people are increasingly becoming vegan as sometimes it can be seen as being the cool and popular option in today’s society.

Again, thank you so much for engaging and interacting with my posts, it means SO much to me!!

  The UK cosmetics market is huge! It is rapidly growing all the time and in fact it has been named as the third largest market operating in the UK. If any of you wear make up like me you will most likely know what brands you love and what brands you do not, you know what works for you and what doesn’t. But do you consider if the make up brands you are using and supporting are perhaps cruelty free? I must admit I do not eagerly look into the make up I am buying which I probably should, as I buy out of convenience and usually buy as and when I need certain products. A number of big brands within the beauty industry are known for being not cruelty free and that has put them under scrutiny for some time by many consumers. An example of this you may be thinking of is Mac. This is because their products are sold in China and China requires animal testing to happen on finished cosmetics in order to be sold. They may not be testing on animals themselves, but they approve of and pay fo...

  Hi everyone and welcome to my first ever blog post! Thank you so so much for following me and I hope you will enjoy the content that I am going to be producing both on my Instagram @_ohmyvegan  as well as this blog.  My name is Amy Dunne and I am nineteen years old currently studying marketing at Ulster University Jordanstown and I am now in my second year. For part of my Digital Marketing module we were asked to create a professional social media page as well as a blog to regularly upload on, all based on a topic we are interested in. These social media pages are so we can engage digitally with a wide audience and to make ourselves known in order to help us gather research for a future assignment. I decided to create mine on a new health journey I am embarking on, in the hope to eventually become Vegan! I will be doing so by small changes made in my diet in order to improve my overall well being and feel better in myself by doing so. This is going to be such a challeng...
