April Favourites !

Its the end of April !  Its been a very busy month with revision, d of e practice expedition and coursework but I have still have had time to try new things !

 

 

 

I love the Aussi 3 minute miracle light moose (I love mooses), it make my hair look healthier, feel softer and lighter (and it smells amazing)

 

I have never used a shaving gel before (which is really bad, I know!) this is the Satin Care Shaving Gel for Dry Skin. I could instantly tell the difference. The hairs were cut shorter, and my legs were softer, more moisturised !

 

I have been absolutely loving One Tree Hill especially after getting season 7 for my birthday ( which has quin and clay in it !!!). You should go and watch it !

 

Zoella's Fizz Bar, I got so many of these for my birthday as people knew I have been loving them recently ! They are just so easy to use as you do not have to scrub any weird glitter and what not ,from the bath after using it (unlike some lush bath bombs). The smell is really fresh as well.

 

Primark sandals I bought these 2/3 years ago (cannot believe they still fit) but absolutely love them. Went to buy a new pair but they have changed the material used for the flowers so I didn't like them as much. But spring is here and it is sandal time. These go with everything.

 

Dove Pomegranate Deodorant, I took this on D Of E with me, it meant I didn't need a shower. It smells so good ! So definitely try this next time you need a new deodorant.

 

Sanctuary Spa White Lily And Damask Rose Body Wash, I got this for my birthday and have used it in every shower since ! It smells AMAZING !!! I cant describe it but it must the smell of white lilies and damask roses ? Love it, you should try it.

Monochrome Outfit !

Hello. I am doing another outfit styling post today. A more sophisticated black and white outfit for going out ?

 

The top and skirt are both from Boohoo. This top is really cool, it is slightly cropped with a high neck, no sleeves, a thin red stripe to add a bit of colour and costs £15 !  And I thought a simple black skirt would go best, it is £5 from Boohoo. To make it a more casual outfit you could swap the skirt for a pair of ripped black jeans?

 

This watch is absolutely beautiful, it costs £75 which is too much for me to spend on a watch. But I still love it, it is class and simple so does not detract from the top. (it is from Topshop)

 

I love this triple ring (it is like a ring, but triple , ha) from River Island and it is only £3 which is a really good price.

 

These shoes ! I am saving up for them at the minute, as they cost £39.99. They are just so classy in my opinion and would be great for a meal out in the summer or a party or anywhere to be honest.

 

I hope you enjoyed this post.

What is your favourite shop at the moment? Mine is Boohoo, if you couldn't tell !

Hand Creams !

I have tried quite a few hand creams recently as due to the horrible cold weather my hands have been really dry (as dry as the Sahara desert ). So I thought I would share my thoughts on each of them.

 

No. 1-  Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula with Vitamin E Concentrated Cream for hands, elbow, knees and feet. It claims to soften and relieve soft, dry skin for 24 hours. I love the smell of this (cocoa butter) but it does not hydrate my hands for longer than an hour or two. It absorbs quite fast and has a thick consistency but I probably won't purchase the full size. It is £1.99 for 60ml which I think is quite a good price because this product is not amazing but it works.

No.2 - Vaseline Healthy Hands and Stronger Nails Hand Cream is what I have been using forever (or almost). This is a really good hand cream and always go back to it when others do not work well enough. It has a slight spell which is quite nice and clean (great description, I know!). Not sure about the stronger nails claim as its hard to tell. This absorb as fast as the Palmer's one but is thinner so it is easy to squirt out too much. This is £5.39 for the 200ml bottle which I have, it is definitely worth the money and is usually on sale.

 

No.3 - Neutrogena Unscented Norwegian Formula Concentrated Hand cream. It has no scent, and is amazing but it is really thick and makes my hands very greasy, which is find if used as a treatment before bed when you won't be touching anything. Definitely not a hand bag hand cream. This costs £3.69 for 50ml which is quite expensive but is definitely worth it for when my hands are super dry.

No.4 - Soap and glory Hand Dream Super Intensive Hand Cream. This isn't the distinctive soap and glory smell, it is slightly fruitier. It is very fast absorbing and works well but have to top it up every so often. It contains AHAs which makes your skin more sensitive to the sun, so I would recommend just using this like the Neutrogena before bed, unless you want to put sun cream on your hands constantly. This costs £7.00 for the 100ml tube, less than Neutrogena would be if it was 100ml, it is also half the size of the Vaseline and still more expensive but is not as good so not sure it is worth it.

Overall I think the Vaseline is my favourite as it absorbs fast and does not leave my hands greasy but still moisturises them. And I can use it through out the day. However if my hands are very very very very very dry I would use the Neutrogena one to sort them out.

I hope you enjoyed this post and found it helpful.

Trying to be a stylist ?

I've realised I do not do much fashion stuff on here. So thought I would try to style an outfit, which I love. I think this one is a summery/ late spring outfit but could be adjusted for early spring (its still a bit too cold for dresses without tights in the UK)

 

 

I absolutely love this dress ! it is cute and summery/springy, and at the moment I am loving shift dresses. It is from Boohoo and costs £18 which I think is quite a good price.

I think these chunky sandals from Topshop (£30, which isn't too bad considering it is Topshop) would go really well, making it been a less flowery outfit (if you know what I mean).

I didn't think much jewellery is needed with this outfit as the pattern is quite bold and colourful but I saw this simple rose gold chain necklace in H&M and think it goes quite well (kind of matches centres of the flowers) but it does cost £6.99 so depending on your budget may not be reasonable but most shops sell chain necklaces at the moment.

 

Did you enjoy this type of post ?

Please comment any suggestions and your thoughts.

HAIM - Go Slow

I am currently writing this post on the bus home, this suddenly came on through my headphones (trying to block out the rest of the bus) and realised how good this song is.

 

 It is so calming and I love the beat, the voices ...

 

Basically, I LOVE THIS SONG!

 

I like all the other songs from this album, but I think this is the best.

Sorry for such a short post, just had to let you know.

Happy Easter !!!

I do no know if you celebrate Easter or not, but I thought I would do this short post just to say that I hope you had a good Easter (day).

 

I did my mum made an amazing Easter hunt for us (my brother and sister), with not just chocolate. I got a Pandora voucher so hopefully next time I am in town I can go pick out a charm for my bracelet ?

 

Did you do an Easter hunt ?

March Favourites !

WOOH ! It has been another month ! With music exams, mothers day and many other things this has been a very busy month !!! But I still had time to try new things which became my favourites. SO here they are, MARCH FAVOURITES !

 

 

No1. Baby Shampoo - I had an allergic reaction at the start of the month (not sure what it was from) but I had a shower to reduce the itchiness. I used Baby Shampoo as it would not irritate my skin. I noticed that it left my hair really soft and shiny! So have been using it all month and my hair has been constantly shiny and soft.

 

No.2 This NYX is amazing, really natural blush which I love when spring is starting to emerge. So definitely one of my favourites this month.

 

No.3 A 5 set of highlighters. I have begun to revise for my GCSEs so have been using lots highlighting to help my remember everything. So has been a favourite of this month.

 

No.4 Nivea Raspberry Lip Butter. I bought this mainly for the smell which is amazing but it works really well. it is cheaper and stays more solid in my pocket than my Body Shop Argan Lip Oil but it is not as good. But is a favourite for when I am out and about.

 

No.6 Maybelline Rocket Volume Express Mascara. this was a recommendation from Essie Button and a friend. It is definitely the best mascara I have ever used, lengthens, volumes and curls my lashes.

 

 

Thank you for reading this post. I hope you enjoyed it.

 

What are your March favourites ?
