Hi, I'm Ellis

I’m a blogger and freelance journalist based in Glasgow, Scotland.

Ellis Tuesday is, has and will always be a space where I share what I’ve been trying, buying, reading, watching and doing. Whether that be the latest beauty product review, a detailed itinerary from one of my travels or the book that you simply have to read next, you’ll find it here plus much, much more.
