July Favourites


This month I have tried lots of new products that I have been extremely impressed with. I recently went into boots, lush, super drug and Debenhams and I managed to find a few bargains as well as being extremely naughty buying some Urban Decay products..(sorry bank account). I also have included my favourite songs and movies at the minute as music and films are such a big part of my life.


 I am such a big fan of Lush. If i won the lottery, the first thing I would do is buy every single product in this shop. I am just obsessed with it. I really wanted to try a new moisturiser that would keep my face feeling smooth and refreshed during this hot weather so I went with the "enzymion facial moisturiser" which was £11.50. My first impressions were really positive, it really makes a difference to my face and makes it feel so much better. The only down-fall is the tub is so small that is will only last a few weeks, which is quite annoying when it is quite pricey. Overall, this is a really nice moisturiser I would defiantly recommended it if you are looking for a soothing cream that gives your face a glowing look and keeps it smooth through-out the day.



Recently, I have wanted to try a really good eye make up remover that was quite a good price as I didn't want to spend too much on a make-up remover. As I have never really tried any simple products I thought I would try this out as it was a really good price. There is no negative things that I could say about this as it is really good and it is certainly gets all of your make up off and leaves your eyes and lashes feeling really clean and fresh. I also like how it has added vitamins in this for your eyes which is an added bonus. There are a lot more expensive eye make up removers that may do a better job but I think that this one is perfect for £3.99




 A brand that I have never really got to try is Urban Decay and I have always wanted to try the NAKED palettes so I thought I would take a trip into Debenhams this month to purchase this palette. I think the case for this is so attractive and has a really good look to it and I also like how all the shades have names. This also comes with some samples of their other eye products and comes with a really nice Urban Decay brush which is an added extra. 

  This palette is extremely pricey and I think that £37 is slightly over-priced for eye shadow but it is Urban Decay which is an extremely popular brand and I really think that all the shades are so pretty and really blend well with other colours. I also like how there is a mix of light and dark shades so there is a colour for every occasion as-well as the summer and winter. 

The shadows stay on your eye-lids really well and don't fade like others and really stand out on your lids which I really like. 

Overall, I really like this pallette and extremely enjoy testing and using the different shades. I would definitely recommend any of the palettes from Urban Decay.




I have always been a big fan of TRESemme products and wanted to try something that would take away any frizz after I had washed my hair. This is the perfect product for this as my hair has been a lot more calmer since using this and I have noticed a big difference. It is also a really good price and even cheaper in places such as 'discount UK' and is usually around £3 to £4 which is a brilliant price for something like this and you only need to use a drop in your hair every time so this will last quite a long time so you really get your moneys worth. 














My new favourite shoes have to been these that I have purchased this month. These are from BLUE-INK and available for £25.99. I really think these are so trendy and go with so many different outfits. They are also suitable to wear in the day as-well as a night out. I am usually not that keen on heels but these are extremely comfortable and I really enjoy wearing them. 












My favourite film of the month has to be "the fault in our stars." Recently I went to the cinema to watch this and I fell so in love with this film. It is defiantly my favourite film of 2014 so far. The story line is so touching and there are so many metaphors in this and so many inspirational films. It is a really good film and I know that just about anybody would like this film even though it really is a tear starter! 












My favourite song of this month has to be Gecko - overdrive. This is such a party song and I love a song that makes me want to dance! I am really enjoying this song at the minute and it is defiantly a most-played song on my music playlist. If you haven't already listened to it then go and listen to it now!

Monthly favourites

My favourites of this month

As a lot might agree with me, Lush is a really good shop and has a lot of great products! Recently I went into a local lush store and decided to buy a few products for my face as I wanted to try some new face washes and moisturisers. I decided to buy the 'herbalism' face wash that I've absolutely fell in love with! All you need to do is put a small amount in your hand and use water and rub it together and it creates a paste that you rub onto your face.. it only takes a few minutes and it feels your face feeling extremely fresh and smooth! It is also for people that have dry skin or have acne. I'd really recommend it! Another product I decided to buy was the 'tea tree water spray' this is something that you can spray on your face whenever you wish and it just freshens your skin up and it is also for when you have a few spots and need to get rid of them immediately. It's a must buy! I've always thought that the products in lush were a bit pricey and it does put a lot of people off but I certainly think that they are worth the money and they do make a difference!

 



I also took a visit to the body shop recently. This is another place I love and it has some amazing products in there. The body creams are just amazing and it's quite hard to pick a favourite. They are quite expensive but they do last a long time and the smells are UNBELIEVABLE. I decided to get the strawberry body polish. This was £10.99 so I was unsure as to whether I was prepared to pay this for a body polish but it is so worth it! It smells so nice and fresh and is definitely worth the money and has been a big favourite of mine this month. I also decided to get the strawberry body cream just because I am such a fan of the smell! Body shop is such a perfect shop and I'd advise people to check it out, it's definitely worth the money!




This month I have been in love with the Vo5 products for my hair. I think this brand is so affordable but does the job! I decided to buy the head defence spray/frizz free cream which is so good as my hair always has a crazy moment when I come out of the shower and this product keeps the frizz down so it is perfect. Another product I have brought is the styling spray! I usually just spray this in before I curl my hair as it protects it and also helps to style it and I think it does a great job! I'd advise anybody to use these products as they are so good and an affordable brand. 


A mascara I have been obsessed with this month is the Rimmel accelerator endless mascara! This is just amazing and makes your eyelashes look a lot more longer and a lot of people have asked me if I have fake eyelashes on while wearing this mascara as they look really long which is one thing I love about this. I have not really been keen on the Rimmel collection of mascara's but I think this one is perfect if you really want your lashes to stand out and have a lot of volume.


This is me with the mascara on 

My favourite song at the minute has got to me 'ready for your love' by gorgon city. What a brilliant song! I literally listen to this song around 200 times a day and I still am not bored of it. I'm also obsessed with disclosure at the minute as I went to a concert to see them this week and they were absolutely amazing so I have their album on repeat at the minute :-)
