March Favourites & An Update

Can't believe it is April already!
I have been loving some great products through march -

• St. Moriz Instant tanning mouse Gorgeous,natural colour with allot of green pigment to avoid the orange look! You can find this in savers for £3


• L'Oreal Solar Expertise Lotion Even though it is hardly sunny/hot in the UK, It is so important to wear sun protection whenever outside. Darling tip - I mix a little of this with a foundation to give it SPF protection, a sheerer coverage and a dewy finish!
  
  
• Rimmel Lasting Finish 25 Hour Foundation Great high coverage foundation, I'm dubious about it lasting for 25 hours but a great cheaper alternative to Mac SFF or Estee lauder Double wear


• Chloe Eau Du Parfum This has been in my favourites before, such a gorgeous girly scent. It has an initial flowery and powdery scent and a deep, musky base note which develops throughout the day


• H&M Nail polish Big fan of neutral nail colours, this is a gorgeous taupe that looks best when I am tanned


• Maybelline Colour Sensational Lipstick - Coral Fever 416 Fun, bright coral colour perfect for SS11. Darling tip - I warm this up between my fingers and apply on the apples of my cheeks for a long lasting coral, dewy flush!

On another note I have been uber busy this month, I have done allot of travelling across the country to visit Universities in Liverpool and Sheffield

February favourite's

I have been loving a few things this month



- Off your face Soap & Glory cleansing cloths
- Umberto Giannini Backcomb in a bottle
- Lush Strawberry feels forever massage bar
- Sleek Liquid illuminator
- Love Chloé Eau du parfuum

I simply have to show you another picture of the perfume bottle


The chain detail is so pretty on my vanity and makes it a more luxurious experience of spraying
Love is a much fresher and lighter scent in comparison to the original Chloé perfume which I already own.It has a floral, powdery and mature scent that lasts all day and develops into a more musky and amber scent.

Has anyone tried any of these products?

November Favourites

Hello Dolls!

I simply cannot believe we are in December already!
It literally feels like last week that we were in summer, and complaining about how hot we were and loving our tans, and now we are all knee deep in snow!

Anyway, here is what I have been loving throughout November!



Dark & Lovely deep repair body lotion
This was a cheap item from savers (Under £3), not the most moisturising product I have used, but the smell is amazing! A more chocolatey scent than Palmer's, and because it was so cheap I slather myself in tons of this!

Aussie 3 Minute Miracle - Luscious Long
I am sure everyone has tried/loved the 3 Minute Miracle treatments, I simply cannot be without these! This is definitely the best hair treatment I have ever got my paws on, and my hair has been feeling the abuse of the cold winds and drying heating recently! I use this two times a week for maximum benefit!

Sleek Pigment - InfernoThis is the most beautiful orange/copper/cranberry pigment and it doesn't have any chunky glitter in it, it is lovely and fine and looks even more intense if you apply it wet! Just a quick sweep of this under my lower lash line with a pencil brush, and it instantly brightens up my eyes, this is such a gorgeous party colour for us brown eyed girls!



Vera Wang Princess
Another product I think everyone owns and loves; This is a scent I love wear throughout the whole year. It's such a sweet, girly scent to being with, and by the afternoon the musky amber notes come through, making it the perfect evening scent! On a side note, isn't bottle is absolutely fabulous?!

Gosh Velvet touch primer
This is such an amazing product, it is a soft gel like consistency and blends out completely, it makes such a difference to apply foundation, it simply glides on and keeps my makeup looking freshly applied all day! Definitely a must have product for the party season!

Carmex
This is hands down the best lip balm I have ever come across, I always have this on me! I love the scent, the tingly feeling, the packaging, everything! It makes my lips feel juicy, plump and moisturised. I can battle any weather with this by my side,You need a tube of this in your life!

My IPhone
As you girlys know, I was lucky enough to be given an IPhone 4 for my birthday in October, and since then it has been in my hand constantly! I am addicted!
I Love how I can update twitter, check up on every ones blog and I always have a camera with this!
I bought myself a sparkly black case to protect it, (I am ashamed I have dropped it a few times), but I am literally in love with my phone. Team IPhone!




Yankee Candle - Mulled wine
You girls know I love my candles, and this is the most christmassy/festive scent! I love lighting candles when I'm having a soak in a nice warm bath, candles are so essential for the perfect pampering session!



So those are the things that have been getting me through november
And I couldnt start December wihtout one of these now could I?!

October Favourites

Hello Dolls!

I have been so rubbish at keeping up with monthly favourites, but I am going to do them religiously from now on I promise!

So here is what I have been loving this month -



Handbag size L'Oreal Elnett hairspray
This is my favourite hair spray ever, I love the smell, holds my hair well & I am never in fear of the dreaded crispy hair look from too much spray! The small hand big size is so perfect for throwing in my bag for touch ups during the day. You know I love my volume and this is an essential!

8 Hour cream
I use this year round, but as it is getting colder I depend on this gem even more! I am not a fan of Vaseline and I find it just sits on my skin, but 8 hour cream is amazing! Smells spicy and wintry, and saves cracked dry lips, cuticles, elbows, brows, lashes,blisters anything you can think of! You need this in your life


Chloe perfume
This is my favourite winter perfume & the bottle is so pretty
it smells so powdery and cozy, and it lasts all day! Definitely recommend you having a little sniff next time you see it!




Mac blush - harmony
I bought this a couple of weeks ago and I have used this every day since! I use this as a blush and contour, and it makes my makeup in the morning so speedy - Just one quick sweep of this under the apples of my cheeks makes me look sculpted and awake, and then for a more dramatic look at nigh time, I use allot with an angled brush for killer cheek bones!



Bourjois healthy mix foundation
This is my most recent purchase, and I have to say it's probably the best drug store foundation I have tried of yet! I love to look dewy but still with a high to medium coverage, and this delivers. It has a lovely fruity scent and it is so easy to blend, although it doesn't last all day it's not bad for under £10!


Neutrogeana pink grapefruit face wash
I have been using this every morning since summer, and it has definitely reduced the oiliness in my Tzone. The scent is so zingy and fresh, definitely wakes me up in the mornings and I love the fact it is pink! Recommend this if you're looking for a new face wash

I have also loved the festive, holiday months of Autumn - It's my favourite season, and christmas is just around the corner!
I went to a fireworks display in my Town last night,it was so fun, I love golden fireworks the most





So that's what I have enjoyed using, among many other things!
What have you loved this month, any thing the same as me?

July / August Favourites

Hey Dolls!



I have been so pants when it has come down to monthly favourites, do forgive me!
This is a little collection of things I have been loving lately, recently & during July & August


Confessions of an Heiress - Paris Hilton
I am all for light hearted, fluffy, whimsical reads - and this is the ultimate
I got this a few years ago and I love to dip into it now and then when ever I need advice of what an heiress would do - This book is very tongue in cheek
It's very picture heavy, no headaches from this one, totally recommend it if you're a Paris fan!






Steam Cream
If you read my post a couple of weeks ago, you will know I was kindly sent this
IT IS AMAZING! This is my new night cream & my skin has never looked better, I cannot see myself without this now!



Hard as nails - Sally Hanson
My nails are always peeling and just generally weak , but this is making all the difference!
I am so lazy at nails, but this is a perfect base or top coat!



Mac Lipglass - Underage
This is from my uber nude lip obsession, anyone watch Lollipop26's videos when she used to love this?
This is seriously Barry M's Marshmallow in opaque gloss form!
Quite hard to work with, and sometimes it can look really chalky, but this lovely mixed with a clear gloss or dabbed over any lipstick! Totally recommend this to the nude lippie gals out there!



Britney - Curious
Now school is starting, I am not wanting to waste the good perfume on boring days stuck in a classroom! This is a lovely perfume for every day, really powdery & florally, it's not sickly like the fantasy range!



VO5 - High Volume hairspray
This is amazing! This was £1.50 or something ridiculously cheap in boots, for 400ml! I have been using it every day & it is so far the best spray I have come across for creating volume! It has a lovely smell, just like Glamalot by soap & glory!

I will do a post on my voluminous hair routine soon, if you would like - This is my secret weapon!




Note - Sorry the lighting in the pictures is messed up - I started snapping away & it got dark in about five minutes, summer time is truly gone!

So that was my very late post!

June favourites

Hey Dolls!

Crikey, is it July already ?
I cannot believe we are officially in full blown summer, the past months favourites have been lacking in makeup and have an increased summery tropical feel haha

Body shop Papaya body butter
Ahh this smells delicious, such a strong tropical juicy scent! This is so moisturising as well, perfect for slathering on over scorched skin or as an alternative to perfume if your wanting a sweet delicious aroma

Trident soft Tropical sugar free gum
Ah I am addicted to this! It is way more interesting than regular mint, yawn
It is pretty strong, and people always comment on the fruity aroma in the room when I am chewing this haha
This is a really good alternative to sweets or other snacks as it has no calories but a really sugary flavour!

Burt's bees Beeswax lip balm
This is definitely a cult beauty item
Lovely menthol tingle and very moisturising, enough said really!


Hawaiian tropics moisturising lipgloss - Mango & Papaya


This is so perfect for summer! It has an SPF of 25, and is completely non sticky!
It is super shiny and just gives the lips a lovely juicy plumpness and it is moisturising as well, ideal if your lips get especially dry in the sun and you don't want to sacrifice your gloss!
Words cannot describe how delicious this is either
Are you noticing a tropical fruit shaped pattern in this favourites yet

Heat magazine

Basically any gossip magazine, I have been lounging around outside allot and heat has been a lovely mind numbing read
I have noticed Heat has had allot more beauty and fashion in it recently, hooray!
And allot of features about Big Brother, yes I am addicted



So that was a very orange themed June favourites

March favourite's

Hey dolls!





Sorry for the lack of posts, I have had a super busy week, but I'm on Easter break now so I shall be blogging to my hearts content!

So I'm going to start with what I've been loving this march

Harmony hair spray
This isn't the best hairspray ever, but it was under £1 from savers and it does the job! I am really not willing to spend £4 or more on hairspray when i know they all have the same affect on my hair


Barry M nail paints - Raspberry and 3 in 1
I am loving Barry M polishes, they don't chip for ages and they have an amazing colour range.
I've been wearing raspberry practically all month, its the perfect berry colour if you don't want a really girly pink!
3 in 1, this is amazingg. It makes polish last all week and makes nails super shiny. Best top coat I've tried!

Bodyshop Total energy enlivening body gel
I love this! Its a gel/lotion and smells so lovely and zingy. It has a really strong citrus and bergamot scent, it might not be to some tastes though!
It might be a gimmicky product, but i love using this in the morning and thinking it wakes me up haha. Its really moisturising and and non greasy, I will definitely be re-purchasing!

Juicy couture- Viva la juicy
I have fallen in love with this again, I went through Christmas time with not wearing this, but it is perfect for spring!
It smells so floral and fresh and people always comment on its lovely smell, arhh i love this so much!

Bodyshop Vitamin e eye cream
I blogged about this before when I first bought it, I LOVE IT.
I have used it everyday all month, it keeps my eyes lovely and soft and I have noticed a decrease in dark circles! I seriously couldn't go without this!


Revlon super lustrous lip gloss - Nude lustre
LOVE THIS. The texture is really creamy and the colour is perfect for everyday. Its a peach/ terracotta with gold shimmers,I feel like my lips are 10 times bigger when I'm wearing this. Well not really 10 times bigger.. haha .
Anyways I've been using this allot this month over bare lips and a little lip liner, super easy and natural. I am definitely going to be tyring out other colours from the range!




Chanel Les ombres eye shadows - no. 77 Influences
I think this may be discontinued, but these are the loveliest colours ever. I love this palette and I've hit pan on nearly all the colours, BOO. The pigmentation of the shadows is so good, they are really pearly and soft..
Ive been using the peach and pink shades all over my lid, and a using the sparkly black with a fluffy brush in the crease so its a really sheer wash of colour.



Enjoy! Comment and tell me what you think of these products or what products you've been loving this march!
