Lifestyle | Autumn Must Haves

For me Autumn is the month to relax and get cosy before the busy and jam packed Winter months, it's a time to reflect and really sit back and look back on the year of how much you have achieved and to look forward into the new year. Here are my must haves to make it as laid back and as fun as possible.

Beauty | Products I'm Loving

Rimmel 610 High Flyer Matte Lipstick
This lipstick hasn't left my bag for a while as I've been wearing it none stop, for only £6.99 it's a great affordable high street lipstick. It looks amazing on the lips as a dark rose shade that looks great in photos but also looks amazing as a dress up or dress down lipstick. It's a Matte shade but doesn't dry the lips out which is a massive plus for me!

Lifestyle - October Favorites

Autumn has been my favorite month since my childhood so I always end up with a lot of products and items that I've been loving, so I thought it was only natural to do an October Favorites and share with everyone my Autumn favorites. I always go for comfort in the colder months so a lot of the things I'm going to share are home comforts with a few beauty items.

Candles
I have been burning so many candles this last month that I might have to go candle shopping spree soon, from Yankee Candles to large glass jar candles there is always one burning in my room. The main scent I've been burning has been berries and citrus scents with the odd rich toned candle in the mix, I've been going for the brand Yankee Candles as I find there small sample candles to be cheap enough to burn at free will but also the scent fills the room with such heavenly scents.

My Three Favorite Blog's To Read

I've seen this style of post going around online and keep meaning to do one so I thought for today's post I would share with you my three favorite bloggers. This is a great way to share the love and also to discover new blogs so I love reading the posts and finding new blogs to read.

April 2015 Favorites

I feel like I haven't done a favorite for ages so thought it was about time I share with you all what I've been loving. There is quite a mix bag of items I've been loving but there all really great products that are well worth the hype.

Superdrug Anti Frizz Serum
My hair this month has just had the biggest meltdown and has gone really uncontrollable so I've had to use my anti frizz serum almost none stop over the last few weeks but I've been loving the effect it has on my hair. It makes me hair feel softer and gives it a little bounce for when I'm having a bad hair day, it's unscented and is a gel like texture which you only need a small amount of as a little goes a long way.

January Favorites 2015

This past month I've been loving quite a few products so I thought I would do a favorites for you as I enjoy reading them and I thought you may want to know what I've been loving the last month. I have a few beauty items and a few other bits and bobs so let's get started!

MAC Foundation
I've purchased a new MAC Foundation last month and have been using it as my day to day foundation, I find I get the right coverage and the right style of foundation for my skin tone when I go to MAC and I always find I get such a long lasting make up look that I always go back after trying some high street foundations. So I gave in and brought shade NW10 which is the lightest shade you can go for and suits my pale and oily face well, it is a bit pricey at £21.50 but I find you only need a small amount so it does last around 2-3 months.

Maybelline Colour 24hr Tattoo Eye Shadow
Over the last few months over Christmas and into January I've been using the cream colour 24hr tattoo eye shadow from Maybelline and have been loving it! It blends so nicely onto the lid and stays put which impressed me a lot. The shade you get from On and On Bronze is lovely as it's a really rich bronze/gold shade which adapts well to other eye shadows being placed on top. To pick one up there available at Superdrug for £4.99 they have a big collection of 15 shades so they should hopefully have the right shade for you!

BlowPro 
I was browsing the Superdrug sale and come across the brand Blowpro which I've tried in the past and loved so I picked up the serum, hair spray and mousse and was extremely impressed. The three products work so well on my thick and unmanageable hair that I have so much more time in the mornings now by using the Blowpro set, the mousse goes into the hair with no trouble and leaves it thicker and fuller while not leaving the hair weighed down, the hair spray gives the hair a nice hold and adds the right amount off volume while not getting to thick and unmanageable, and my favorite product the serum works wonders on protecting my hair before I blow dry it and leaves my hair soft and looking great. It's normally price at £6.99 but Superdrug were selling them for £1.99.

Zoella and Chris Pavone Books
I'm not one to normally sit down and read but throughout January I have read two great books that I just had to share with you and they were the Zoella book which is a great read for teenagers or anyone suffering from Depression/anxiety as it has some great help tips and some advice to help you get through it but it also gives you some great first relationship advice while still being a great read. The second book by Chris Pavone is called The Accident which is a crime and thriller book that keeps you gripped the whole way through while being a great read as you get to know the characters and the story line thickens all the way through before a really shocking ending I loved this book and can't wait to see what Chris Pavone has coming up.

New York Planning and Tokyo Planning
I have always had the travelling bug and as I've booked New York for September most of my time has been spent reading up and attractions and planning what shops to visit, I've also been looking online at hauls and having a look at other travelling blogs as I want to make the most out of going to New York. I've also decided in 2016 I shall be going to Tokyo and can't believe how cheap it is, to stay in a decent hostel for a weak it's £116 which was a massive shock for me. The one thing I shall struggle with is learning the language as I've had no practice or exposure to the Japanese language it shall be a struggle for me!

So that's it for my favorites if you have done a post then let me know I would love to check it out!

April Favorite's 2013

I only have a small list for my April favorites, but they have all been great product's they I have already re purchases or there on my shopping list.

The first product I loved was the Nip and Fab Mango Smoothie, I love this product so much, It goes on so well and keep's my skin feeling refreshed all day. The smell is so intense and lasts all day, for a full size pot it costs £5.90 or you can get a small pot for £2.95. I re brought a pot after getting one in my Glossybox, I brought one from TXMaxx for a fraction of the original price!

My next favorite product is the MUA Eye shadow palette Dusk Till Dawn, I've not found a palette that I've liked all the shades of until I picked this one up. Some are matte while other have specks of glitter in and they go on so well, they are super easy to blend and are great for daytime/evening wear. It cost £4.00 from Superdrug for 12 different colours.

I've also just started using my collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer, I was using the stick version but picked up the liquid one a few weeks ago and it work's so well. It goes on great and blends in nicely, I also don't have to reapply during the day. It cost £4.19 from boots.

Lastly I've been loving the vo5 shampoo range, I'm currently using the Nourish Me Truly pink bottle and can't seem to fault it. I was also is Boot's the other day and noticed they had a buy one get one free offer on the shampoo range so I picked up 2 more bottles! They only cost £3.99 and leave my hair feeling great.
