January Favourites | Beauty, Fashion and Lifestyle

January has come and gone so quickly, I can't believe we're into the second month of 2016 already! It seems to have been a positive start to 2016 for me personally and I'm excited to see what the rest of the year brings. This year, I'm aiming to share with you my favourites from each month as I love seeing what everyone else has been enjoying using as I think it gives a thorough review on what's really worth purchasing etc. So as you can tell from the title, I shall be sharing with you what I've been loving this month, let's get into it shall we? 
















Fleur De Force Cosmic Bronze Eyeshadow Palette

I was so happy to receive this palette in the Feel Unique beauty advent calendar. I had my eyes on this quad when the line was launched, however I decided against it as I thought I had enough natural eyeshadows. I was wrong, I was totally missing out not having this palette! It has a beautiful range of natural shades, my favourites have been the matte nude for all over the lid, the matte brown for in the crease and the brown shimmer for in the centre of my lid. These are really well pigmented so a little goes a long way, it's small and compact so would be perfect for travelling also!












Nuxe Reve De Miel Lip Balm

This is another one I received in the Feel Unique beauty advent calendar. Once again, I was so happy to receive this as I've heard lots of great reviews on it. I received this at perfect timing, my lips were so dry from the cold winter winds. After just a couple of uses, I noticed a huge difference. My lips were no longer dry and flaky instead they felt and looked healthy. I love the thick texture of this balm, the scent also has a hint of lemon which is nice. I'd really recommend this lip balm despite the £9.50 price tag.












Rimmel Match Perfection Concealer

I picked this up on a whim as I was completely out of concealer and it was the only one in my tiny local Boots that looked worth purchasing.

I vaguely remember seeing good reviews on this concealer, in particular that it was good for hiding dark circles under the eyes due to the 2-in-1 highlight. I love how easy this is to blend under my eyes, I tend to do the triangle then blend with a beauty blender. So quick and simple, makes me look more awake and so affordable. 











Zara Soft City Bag

I first saw this in a haul on YouTube and fell in love! I knew I wanted a new bag but was unsure what I wanted. As soon as I saw this, I had to have it. I couldn't believe it was only £20 from Zara, I think it looks much more expensive! I popped it on my Christmas Wish List and Santa listened. It's been perfect for everyday wear as it's not too big nor small, it's simple so will go with almost everything and is ideal for work and the weekends!








DW Home Calming Waves 3 Wick Candle

It wasn't until a few months ago that I discovered TK Maxx has amazing candles!? Ever since I've been popping in every time I'm in town to check them out. Just before Christmas I came across this one, a huge 3 wick candle that smelt mineral-y(definitely not a word) and spa-like. It seemed like the perfect candle for a relaxing bath or evening in so I didn't leave it behind as it was only £6.99- a total bargain. Ever since I've been burning it non-stop and I'm coming to the end of it which I'm gutted about. I'm going to savour it a little longer and only burn it for an hour or so every now and then! I must keep my eyes peeled for something similar in TK Maxx as I've never seen two of the same candles there at one time.









BNTM



I was so pleased to see Britain's Next Top Model back this year. I used to love this show and have watched almost every series so I was excited to see what the new one had to offer. It's a little different which I like, though it still has some of the original features like Model Mail, Challenges and the typical bitchyness in the house. I'm still yet to choose a favourite as I like the majority of the girls still remaining, though I'm sure their personalities will come out and help me decide. 

Are you watching it this year? I'd love to know what you think and if you've got a favourite!





That's all! I'm sure there has been lots of other things that I've been enjoying this month but these are the things that stood out in particular. I would love to hear what you've been loving this month so feel free to let me know in the comments down below. Also, don't forgot to let me know what you think of BNTM if you've been watching it!

September Favourites | Beauty, Fashion and Lifestyle

When it comes to favourites post, almost everyone seems to highlight the fact that the month has gone by so quickly, for me September has dragged! I used to dislike September as it meant back to school or college, but this September was different- I wasn't going back to education so it marked new beginnings which was exciting! I've not been trying much in terms of beauty this month so I thought i'd share some of the fashion and lifestyle bits I've been loving too! 

First, I shall get the beauty bits out the way. I got my hands on one of Fleur De Force's lip glosses, this is in the shade Written in the Stars which was described as a 'your lips but better' kinda shade. This is definitely how i'd describe it, unlike most drugstore lip glosses this is highly pigmented which is perfect to effortlessly pop on when you're in a rush to get out the door. These are exclusive to Feel Unique at the moment and are £6.99 which is pretty reasonable!

My skincare favourite this month has been Lush Mask of Magnaminty which is a face and body mask. I haven't used this as a body mask yet but I've been really enjoying using it on my face once week, usually on a Sunday to pamper my skin at the end of the week. I recently reviewed this so you can see my full thoughts here.

You may have seen this jumper in my latest haul, I mentioned that I believe they're supposed to be slightly cropped so I got mine in a larger size so that I could wear it to work also. This has been so ideal for those days where I can't be bothered as I can throw this on with a pair of cigarette trousers or over a smock/skater dress and i'm good to go. Also this was only £7.99 so I picked it up in the mustard colour too, i'm tempted to go back for the khaki colour!

I thought i'd mention a food favourite this month, it's Kaspas an ice cream and dessert where I live. I believe Creams in England is similar though! This is a bit of a cheat as I've only been once but I've wanted to go back ever since! I had a waffle with fresh strawberrys and chocolate drizzled over and whipped cream on the side, I dread to think how many calories that were in it, but it was goood!

Finally I thought i'd also mention a lifestyle favourite. This month I started a new job with an agency doing supply work as a Teaching Assistant. It's been so nice to get back out there doing what I love, gaining experience to either go to university next year or find a full-time job. Of course it's also been lovely to be earning, especially when Christmas is on it's way- just under three months people!

And there you have it, a run down of what I've been loving this month!

I'd also like to apologise as I've been lacking inspiration on the blogging front recently, seeing that it's now autumn and lots of festivities are ahead, i'm hoping to get my mojo back! I would really appreciate any post suggestions in the comments below. Let me know what you'd like to see from me!

July 2015 Favourites | Makeup, Skincare, Fashion and More!

It's been months since I last done a monthly favourites post, so seeing as there has been quite a few things I've been loving this month I thought i'd share them with you. Personally, I love reading and watching favourites as it gives you an insight to what people are loving and whats worth spending your money on. I thought i'd split mine into a few sections- makeup, skincare, fashion and other which consists of things I probably can't show but can talk about- so here goes.

Makeup

Collection Lengthening Mascara
I received this in a beauty box at the beginning of the year and from what I had experienced with previous Collection mascaras, I sort of put it to one side and didn't think much of it. I recently rediscovered this when sorting through my makeup and this was the only one I hadn't tested so thought i'd give it a go. I'm so glad I did! I was using the Benefit Roller Lash sample at the time and I found this done a similar job. Although, I still would really like to repurchase the Roller Lash, I don't see much point as I love this just as much. It creates length as the name would suggest and separation leaving you with natural fluttery lashes!

Seventeen Phwoarr Paint Concealer in Fair

I was coming to the end of my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer and although that is a great concealer, I wanted to try something different. I had heard that the Seventeen Phwoarr Paint was a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Corrector Concealer so decided to give this a whirl as that is a concealer which is much raved about. This covers my dark circles like no other and doesn't crease throughout the day as I found the Collection one did a little. However, I must set this cream concealer with powder otherwise it will slip and slide in the warm weather! This will definitely go in my basket again.

Botanics All Bright Radiance Balm

I'd never heard about this product before reading it on someones blog a month or so ago. As it was on offer while making an online order I decided i'd give this a go as I remember, whoever reviewed it said it was amazing for creating that 'lit from within' glow. I use the L'Oreal True Match Foundation on a daily basis which I love, however it is a satin/matte finish and I prefer a dewier look during the summer. This works alone to make you look fresh and healthy when really you've just rolled out of bed but also works well mixed in with foundation. If you see this whilst shopping at Boots, swatch it! It has the most stunning iridescence running through it.

Skincare

Botanics Shine Away Invigorating Face Scrub

I've recently ran out of the other scrub from the Botanics range, although that was lovely I thought i'd give this one a go. I'm so glad I did as I much prefer this one! The other has plastic micro-beads however this has a more fine and almost sand/sugar like scrub which I much prefer as it feels like it's really working to lift any dead skin cells to leave you with much smoother skin. This is also for oily skin which has been working wonders to mattify my skin during the summer months.

Fashion

Primark Nude Loafers

I actually picked these up to wear to an interview as they're very plain and simple which I feel can be dressed up or down on more casual days. Since buying these they've not been off my feet, hence why they look a little worse for wear. I went back to pick up another pair but unfortunately they had all sold out, maybe that's a sign to invest in a more expensive, higher quality pair- eh?

Other

You may have seen a previous post of mine, talking about meeting up with family after a long while, you can read more about that here. But yes, I went to another gathering this month with all my family there for my cousins 2nd Birthday. It was so lovely to see the family but really nice to celebrate her special day also. I was in my element while shopping for her, as you may know- I work with children. We decided on a Peppa Pig puppet book and the most gorgeous little top with ice lollies and ice creams on- perfect for her holiday! She absolutely loved the Peppa book, and Peppa is her new favourite thing- so sweet! 

And that's a wrap of what I've been loving this month!

I'm just wondering, do you guys like these sort of posts or would you rather see something different?

April Favourites | Makeup, Skincare, Fashion and more!

It's favourites time! I feel like I haven't done one of these posts in a while and considering there's a few new and old things I've been loving I thought I'd share them with you. I'm going to split these into categories and first up is makeup.

Fairly recently I picked up the MUA pressed powder in what I believe is the darkest colour, shade 4. And yes you're probably thinking if you're a regular reader of my blog- but you're pale!? I actually bought this as I heard it was a good shade for contouring and as I wanted to get into contouring and sculpting my face I thought this was a good call for only £1! I've been using this with a light hand using the Real Techniques Duo-Fibre contour brush and it's been great for adding warmth and life to my face, though I've not quite grasped contouring, I'll keep going at it!

Next is skincare and I've actually gone back to an old favourite the Garnier Moisture Match moisturiser for combination and oily skin. I nearly always pick this up when I see it on offer as you can usually get it for half the price. As my Origins Gin Zing moisturiser is running out I started to use this one again as my skins been very combination recently with a few dry and oily patches so this has been perfect for hydration and combating oils, although I would say this doesn't make my skin look matte like the writing on the packaging suggests.

There have been a couple of things in terms of fashion which are both in fact from Primark that I've been loving.

First is these gorgeous grey suede pointed flats that have cross over straps. I've been wanting a neutral pair of pointed flats for a while and after scouring many websites, I thought i'd pop into Primark to have a look. They did not disappoint, as soon as I saw these I got down on the floor to search for a size 5, lone and behold just that, right at the back! These were only £6 I believe and I'm completely smitten.

I've wanted a black pair of Topshop Joni jeans for a while and after nearly caving and spending £40 on jeans that should last, I heard Primark had a rival for only £10- what!? I'm so glad I picked them up, they fit almost perfect all over and are so comfortable. I must go back and pick up another pair and see if they have any other colours. Fingers crossed they do a white pair!? Apologies as I don't have a picture as I stupidly put them in the wash just before taking pictures!

Last up is miscellaneous as I had no idea what to call this category but basically I've been loving Spring. The past couple of weeks the weather has been gorgeous in Wales, I think Summer came early? I've loved brighter mornings and lighter evenings, they give me the boost to just get up and go- as cringey as that sounds.

I've also been enjoying lighting more Spring/Summer appropriate candles and both these have been my long standing favourites for a while, Yankee Candle Simply Home Sunlight on Snow and Pink Sands. Granted the first doesn't have a very spring appropriate name but the scent is light and fresh which is ideal and Pink Sands is the most gorgeous sweet-smelling scent I've come across. Definitely thinking of getting both these in jars soon!

There you have it, a run down of my favourites this month. I look forward to what May has to offer as we move more into Summer, let's hope for less stress and lovely weather!

November Favourites | The Mixture

Hello!

December is here so I thought I'd write up my November Favourites! I've decided to just call it my 'November Favourites' as there has been quite a mixture of things I've been loving this month so without further ado, here goes...

 First i'll get the only beauty product out of the way and that is the Maybelline Colour Drama Intense Velvet Lip Pencil in Berry Much. For a few weeks I popped into every local Boots and Superdrug and the shade Berry Much was nowhere to be found and it seemed the others were in high demand too, while wasting some time in Superdrug before work there lied Berry Much! It was a 3 for 2 offer so I picked up Red Essential for my mum and a mascara for myself, anyway more about the pencil. These glide on the lips very easily as they're so creamy though I have to be careful with these to avoid looking like Miranda Sings, they sit on the lips lovely and last a pretty long time once blotted with tissue. I'll definitely be picking up some more in the near future!

While having a nose on the Primark website before my next lesson in college, I noticed they had fairy lights, clear and coloured for only £1.50 for 20 or £2.50 for 40. My friend said she had bought some for her room and that she's had no trouble with them at all so I quickly nipped into Primark to pick up some for myself. I had no idea what I was going to do with them but I needed them to make my room a little more festive, seeing as I have fairy lights wrapped around my bed all year round. I picked up 20 coloured lights and I've been trying out different places in my room to find where I like them best, though i'm not settled- I love how they look and they're a bargain for just £1.50.

Recently I felt like I was lacking in the technology department, I have a laptop(though its not strictly mine as I broke mine a long while ago- cries), my iPhone wasn't cutting it. I've wanted an iPad for a while and I was going to wait until Black Friday to pick up the best deal, although my brother told me I can get something just as good or better for much cheaper. After a bit of searching for the best android/windows tablets out there, I settled on a Lenovo Yoga 2 8" with multiple modes and 18 hour battery life. Since I've had it I've not really been off it- I'm completely smitten with it and it fulfills all my needs seeing as I can use Instagram, Twitter, Blogger and even do my college work on there.

I've been loving the festivities this month and i'm super excited for Christmas. My Christmas shopping is nearly done and I just have to pick up one last bit for my mother(I'm putting it off each week as she's so hard to buy for), I've been Christmas decoration shopping and the Christmas lights are up in my town. I've been hinting to my mum to get the tree up but she's having none of it, so it'll probably go up around the 12th December!

That's it for my favourites this month but rather than leave it there, I thought i'd share some of my favourite blog posts I've read this month(in no particular order).

6 things | August Favourites

Hello!

As you may or not know about me, I like to do things in 6's. Apparently 6 is my lucky number, I have no idea why as it's never been remotely lucky to me or unlucky for that matter. Coincidentally when I was racking my brain for favourites of August, I had 6 firm favourites and that was me done and sorted. Without further ado, I'll get straight into them.

Each of these will be in groups of 2, first up is beauty or rather skincare favourites if you must. 

1. The Body Shop Vitamin E Moisture Cream, here. 

A moisturiser that's been in my beauty stash for a while but I was very close to running out so I abandoned it to avoid it, logical eh? I thought I'd give it a whirl again as I hadn't used it in a while and I wish I hadn't stopped. This is such a lightweight daily moisturiser that is gentle and hydrating on the skin, by that I mean you can feel that it's working as it soaks into the skin. It also smells pretty good so I'll definitely be re-purchasing this when I sadly run out! 

2. Boots Botanics All Bright Purifying Face Scrub, here.

I can't remember exactly where but I had heard good things about this, after I ran out of a Clean and Clear scrub that I wasn't overly impressed by, I saw this on offer and picked it straight up! This is again a more gentle scrub without being to abrasive but definitely does the job to remove excess dead skin cells and leaves my skin feeling super soft and plump! I love the smell of this as it is natural, sourced from the Royal Botanical Gardens, it can only be doing good for my skin! 

The sun went in and the lighting went funny, excuse the quality of this and some other photos.

3. Hamsa hand necklace.
You may have seen this in my recent clothing haul, I saw an instagram account I had bought from previously selling them so I purchased one and i'm more than happy with it. I love pairing this with a basic plain outfit as it makes it looks more well put together!

Apologies- this is obviously not my photo, it's from the website. Photos wouldn't do these jeans justice.

4. New Look Mom Jeans, here.
I love the look of Mom jeans, I saw these in the New Look sale reduced from £24.99 to £10(not sure why online it previously say's they were £12) so of course I got them. I love how they look on and I think pretty much any shape or size could get away with wearing these jeans, I think they're so flattering! I've had these on multiple times since I purchased them about 3 weeks ago, so of course they had to be a favourite!

5. Yankee Candle Pink Sands wax tart, here.
One I've had for a while but loved so much I couldn't bring myself to melt it, although one day I was definitely feeling it after cleaning my room. I love this smell, it's quite strong yet so feminine and I've found it perfect for the warmer months, although i'll definitely continue to melt this through Autumn/Winter too as I love the scent so much, probably my favourite Yankee Candle scent!

6. Store Twenty One White Storage.
I fell in love with this shop when I found it in Exeter, I just wish they had one closer to me as their home ware was great and so were the prices! This was reduced from £10 down to £7 and i'm using it as makeup storage. I love how this looks on my dressing table as apposed to the clear muji storage and it's definitely more unique! Unfortunately this is not on the website so I could not link it!

And that's it for my favourites this month, I hope you preferred this to my usual more lengthy beauty favourites. I feel like I've brought a more wider range to this post, so hopefully you've enjoyed that!

Let me know below in the comments and also comment what you'd like to see next!

July Favourites

Hello!
I honestly cannot believe how fast July has gone by, I feel like I say this each month but July has come by and gone in a flash! I didn't even get around to doing my June monthly favourites, but here I am back with with things I've been loving this July, as the title states!

The Body Shop Vitamin E Cream Cleanser- £8.50 here.

First up is The Body Shop Vitamin E Cream Cleanser(hoping this hasn't been mentioned in a favourites before). I purchased the smaller sized bottle of this to try it out before I spent £8.50 on the larger bottle and then find out I don't actually like it. I'm glad I did although after a few uses I realised I loved it, it's so gentle and makes my skin feel so clean and soft! I've also experienced less breakouts as a result of using just 2 cleansers, one in the morning and this in the night after removing my makeup! I've also tried the moisturiser from the same range and really like that too, so I think i'm definitely going to try more!

L'Oreal True Match and Rimmel Lasting Finish- here and here.

I had a Rimmel foundation sitting in my makeup storage that I haven't used in a while as I'm not too keen on the foundation on it's own- it's the shade up from what i'd usually get too. I thought rather than not waste it i'd mix a little with my current L'Oreal True Match foundation for the summer, believe it or not I do get a little colour on my face rather than being the palest of pales. The L'Oreal True Match offers a satin to matte finish but mixed with the Rimmel 25 hour foundation offers a dewy finish which I love in the summer, without looking oily! I love the colour and finish it gives on my skin so will definitely continue to use this combination throughout the summer!

Tea Tree Water (Toner Water)- £3.95 for 100ml here.

Eu Natural!

The last beauty related item i've been loving this month is the Lush Tea Tree Toner Water, again I purchased this in the smaller bottle to see if I liked it, i'm so pleased as the bottle isn't even that small- I think it's the perfect size to use within the use-by-date. I bought this as my skin can be quite oily so I thought i'd give this ago to combat the oils and keep my skin clean throughout the day and after cleansing. Tea Tree has anti-bacterial properties so is perfect to keep your skin at it's cleanest and prevent spots, i'd definitely give this a go if you have oily skin- it's also super refreshing in the warmer months!

The sandals I've been wearing, they're well worn in from H&M about 2 years ago.

Mentioning the warmer months there, Wales is actually experiencing 'Summer'. This is rare as normally we get the odd few days then the weathers back to its usual self, grey and dreary! The weather has been so nice recently, it's actually warm enough to go without a jacket and wear sandals..although that's not a favourite of mine, people with their feet out- not the prettiest sight! I've loved being out in the garden in the Sun to get my daily dose of Vitamin D, like we all should be! I hope the weather sticks around especially when I'm off on my travels to the South of England.

You may of seen me mention a few times that my sisters moving out, and that she has now! Although that's not what I've been enjoying but I have been enjoying shopping with her. We've been quite often recently and although I do like shopping on my own, I don't mind accompanying her when she wants to do some shopping. After all, who would say no to shopping? Not me! Keep an eye out, you'll see a haul here very soon!

Lemon Ice Tea in the sun.

Last but not least, I've been loving drinking Lemon Ice Tea- so refreshing in the summer! I only actually tried it a month or 2 ago but I actually love it! I'm so glad I ventured out to try something new as I don't do that often. I do enjoy the Lipton Ice Tea(only the lemon flavour) when i'm out and about, but my Mum also buys a big bottle from I think it's Lidl as she spotted it in there when buying our fruit!

That's it for this months favourites, what have you been enjoying this month? Let me know!

Recent Favourites

As its currently a Sunday, I thought i'd catch up on some blogging! I have completely neglected my blog recently but I am slowly but surely getting back into it, I have already written one review which is waiting to go up, so hopefully I can catch up today and perhaps schedule some posts. Anyway i'll stop blabbing and get on with what today's post is going to be about, my recent favourites as you can tell from the title! I decided not to do a monthly favourites as I have been using some of these products longer than a month!
I wrote this blog post a few weeks ago, I haven't had time to take photos as when I do have time the lighting isn't great, so apologies for these photos not being my own, credit to Google images.

I am going to try and be quick at explaining why these products are my favourites but that doesn't tend to happen a lot as I have so much to say about things! First of all is the Garnier Pure Foam Wash, this is a product I was excited to try as I had read nothing but good things about it and Garnier definitely didn't disappoint! I love this wash for every day use, it smells fresh, makes my skin feel at its cleanest and definitely helps with my oily T-zone. I say this as usually facial washes tend to make my skin 'too clean' and provokes it to produce more oils, but this wash definitely keeps the oils under control! I'm not going to say much about this as there already is or will be very soon a full review on this product!

My next favourite is the Rimmel London Stay Matte liquid mousse foundation. First of all I must say, I was confused as to what a 'liquid mousse' foundation looked and felt like and the only way I can describe it is a very light mousse. Awful description I know, it comes out like a blob of mousse then when I apply it using the Real Techniques Buffing brush it covers just like a liquid would. Now don't be fooled by this foundation being 'light', it gives absolutely amazing coverage! I love how light it feels on my skin and how it looks, covering all my imperfections and helping to control the oils- it definitely stays matte!

Another favourite of mine is quite unusual for me! It's the MUA Matte Lipstick in Wild Berry. I absolutely love dark vampy lipsticks, especially purples! I just never ever had the confidence to wear one, but as I follow MUA on instagram and saw how incredible it looks on the lip, for a £1 I just couldn't leave it! I wasn't fooled when I saw the colour in the bullet being so dark almost black, as I had seen how it looks on, but if you do see this lipstick in Superdrug definitely swatch it! It comes out very pigmented but sheer, but it is definitely buildable, usually 2 coats is enough for me! I love how the lipstick looks and for a pound you cant go wrong- I've definitely got my wear out of it this Autumn/Winter, I will continue to wear it until it becomes too Spring, haha!

I've also been loving the Skintruth Lavender and Chamomile soothing cleanser, this is from a 3 step kit but I only particularly like the cleanser. Now I hate Lavender but this cleanser really isn't that bad, I can't really smell the lavender when applying. This is just a slightly more expensive alternative to treat my skin a little usually once or twice a week, I only do not use this so often as this is a Salon brand so it's not quite as easy to get hold of- my sister is a qualified beauty therapist though, so that's the only reason I have it! This is as it states, very soothing and cleansing as it leaves my skin feeling lovely and makes me feel better about my self all round- that's quite cheesy but, I guess it really is soothing! If you happen to see this in a salon near you or would like to try it, I definitely wouldn't hesitate! I love it!

Last but not least beauty related product, its the Beyonce Heat perfume. I never thought I would be saying this as Beyonce is not a person who particularly interests me- but this perfume is amazing! I was looking for a cheaper alternative to my Giorgio Armani Si perfume, for every day use- as Si isn't quite as affordable! I'm not saying this perfume is a similar scent to Si but I saw a lot of people had it, so I thought it must be good! I finally went into town and gave this a whiff in Boots and I loved it instantly! I cannot explain the scent but its slightly sweet and spicy at the same time, perfect and affordable for every day wear! It's so affordable, I purchased the 100ml size for under £15!

My final favourite isn't beauty related, it's something I got for my Birthday. If you don't already know, I kind of have a thing for Olly Murs, like a big thing. I've seen him live 4 times and met him twice, once a competition I won to go to his book signing and the second time- me and my friend waited outside in the cold from 10 til around 4pm. Then after went to see him live! My most recent to date 'thing' is that I won a competition with Heart FM to ask him a question and got to say anything I wanted to him- I asked him to follow me on twitter ofc! He did on Boxing Day and it was the most amazing thing, I listened to him answer my other question and just cried. Probably very sad I know! So to highlight my thing for Olly, my parents got me this signed picture of him framed which is going to sit on my wall very happily!

I hope that wasn't too long and that you're still here! If you are then thank you so much! That's all for today's favourites post- what would you like to see? Please comment below your feedback and if you have tried any of these products and let me know what you think of them! If you have anything you'd like me to post then feel free to comment below and i'll try my best!

Talk soon my lovelies! X
