current favourites


With everything a little hectic at the moment (promise I won't mention how busy I am again any time soon!) I didn't get the chance to post my September favourites & whilst I was wracking my brain for blog post ideas I thought, why not share some current favourites instead? 

First up is a sweet smelling perfume, LUSH Snow Fairy, which was unfortunately limited edition last year but I'm hoping/praying it makes a return for the festive season again because I'm running low! I've had quite problematic skin & it's something I've been trying to get under control as it really knocks my confidence. I knew I had a product that could help reduce the spots I've been suffering with & the amount of joy I felt when I discovered my tiny pot of Origins Super Spot Remover last week was slightly ridiculous but very relieving! Applying a small blob of the gel on any problem areas dries out the skin & lessens redness. It certainly doesn't remove imperfections over night but it definitely helps to speed up the process of achieving blemish free skin. I've been loving lighter coverage foundations recently, with YSL Touché Éclat being one of my most loved & Revlon Nearly Naked following close behind. The thinner consistency still fulfils my coverage requirements without the cakey feeling some foundations have. Running late seems to be my speciality at the moment so I've been reaching for the  Rimmel Scandaleyes Shadow Paint in Rich Russet as the doe foot applicator allows me to create a smokey eye look in seconds, it's blendable, highly pigmented & won't budge all day! My final favourite is a bit of a treat, my Mum & Nana surprised me with a pastel green bag containing a box filled with Laduree Macarons after their trip to London at the weekend, which I unfortunately had to miss out on (boo!) If you're ever wondering which flavour to choose, I'd recommend Salted Caramel, they're to die for!

Let me know your current favourites in the comments!

october favourites


John Frieda Full Repair Styling Spray - I'm planning on doing a review on the Full Repair range as I got sent a few items to try out, this product smells so good & protects my hair from heat damage.

Johnson's Dreamy Skin Night Facial Cleansing Wipes - I've used these for absolutely years, but because this is my first 'monthly favourites' post I thought I'd include them. I know people say makeup wipes are bad, blah blah blah, but these smell delicious, are soft on my skin & do a pretty good job at removing everything.

MUA Pro Brow Kit - I did a full review on this here, I've used it everyday for the past couple of weeks, it's a great kit & I can't see myself ever going back to my old eyeshadow now.

Soap & Glory Hand Maid Antibacterial Cleansing Gel - I've had a couple of bottles of this & will always repurchase, it's a definite necessary living in London & catching the tube... it's the nicest smelling hand sanitizer ever to!

Miracle Oil - This is of course a dupe of the much raved about Moroccan Oil, which sadly I can't afford... I picked this up from Aldi for only £4 & it makes my hair much easier to manage. I add a couple of drops to the palm of my hands & smooth it through the ends whilst my hair is damp.

Revlon PhotoReady Foundation - Probably my favourite foundation I've ever tried! It's the perfect shade for my skin, lasts all day & is great coverage. I can't recommend this foundation enough!

Figs & Rouge Rambling Rose Balm - I got this ages ago in a Glossybox, its really moisturising on the lips but it can also be used on your skin, I have a really awful anxiety habit of picking the skin around my nails & when I apply this it soothes the skin, resulting in a quicker healing process.

What are your October favourites?
