May Favourites

Wednesday 3 June 2015
















I can't believe it is actually June. It feels like it was Christmas only last month! But May is over which means only one thing- monthly favourites time! I always enjoy reading these type of posts and of course, being me, I couldn't just do a beauty favourites so this one includes a bit of everything.


Elizabeth Arden 8 hour cream

This has been my go to lip product this month and has never left my hand bag. My lips are constantly dry but seem to get even worse when the seasons change. Despite tasting like plastic it is a thick consistency and instantly soothes my dry chapped lips. I have been applying this first thing in the morning, last thing at night and during the day when needed.


NKD SKN by Vita Liberata Medium Tan Mousse 100ml
 
My level of expertise when it comes to fake tan is beginner/novice/I just want to be brown! But this fake tan is really easy to use and most importantly DOES NOT SMELL OF BISCUITS! I have to get my boyfriend to fake tan my back (much to his delight), but even he considers himself a pro at this after a few uses. I used this for my end of uni ball and it gave me a lovely golden look with no streaks. I think its a bargain at £14.95 from Superdrug and when I purchased it last week you got a free tanning mitt with it too which is still available.

Younique Moodstruck 3D Fiber Lashes

When your Dad randomly asks you if you are wearing fake eyelashes you know you have a winner when it comes to mascara. This stuff is ah-ma-zing and I have been trying not to use it everyday as I don't know how long it will last. I will most likely be doing a separate review post on this at a later date but basically there are 2 wands; 1 which looks and acts like a normal mascara that you apply first and the other which adds fibres making your lashes look thicker and longer. It really makes a difference and I have been loving using it this month.

Home made juices

This month my boyfriend and I bought a juicer as part of trying to be healthier and created the best mango, orange and banana juice! I'm not one for all this green veg stuff so fruit juices are definitely my favourite and they are great in the mornings or as a snack in between meals.

TIGA Lizard Skater Shoes from Topshop - link here

I was looking for a dress and walked out with a pair of shoes,*typical me*. I had been wanting some casual flats since the weather had started to improve and had seen Tanya Burr wearing some similar ones on her instagram. They are not something I would normally go for but when I tried them on they were so comfy and they go with so many outfits including my usual jeans and tee combo.

TV Series - Once Upon A Time

I will admit that I binge-watched the entire 5 series of this from the end of April and througout May. If you like anything to do with fairy tales and adventure then this is for you. Its a modern take on all the classic fairy tales such as Snow White and Red Riding Hood with all the best from Disney like Mulan, The Little Mermaid and Frozen and is set in the modern day. It's a light hearted series available on Netflix and is definitely my most watched thing this month.

What are your most loved and most used favourites this month?
