May Favourites


I'll start this post off with the typical 'I can't believe it's June already!'. But really this year is going so fast, I'll be finished college it two weeks, finally the end of my HND then off to University for 2 years in September! Anyhoo I'll stop babbling and get into my May favourites. 

I'll start with my haircare favourites, firstly I've picked the original Tangle Teezer, here for £10.99. Everyone raves about how good these are and I eventually picked one up. I have quite long hair so it gets tangled easily. I really love this brush, it's been a total revelation for me. It gets tangles out so easy, with very little pulling. Next on haircare is the L'Oreal Elvive Extraordinary Oil For Coloured Hair, here for £9.99. I am totally in love with this oil, after washing rub a couple of drops on your hands then apply through the lengths and ends of your hair. I think this oil really helps dry hair, with mine being bleached in dries out so easily and this oil makes my hair shiny, nourished and soft. 

Onto makeup, I'll start with the Hoola Bronzing Powder, here for £23.50. This is the first bronzer I've used in ages! I'm ridiculously pale and I'm a little scared of bronzer but everyone raved about this and I finally picked it up. I think the colour is great, not too dark and not shimmery. It stays on the face really well. Although I'm not a massive fan of the brush it comes with, I apply mine with the Real Techniques Kabuki Brush. Onto a lip product I've picked the MAC Lipstick in Peach Blossom, here for £15.00. This shade is the perfect nude in my opinion, it has hints of pink with peachy tones, I just love it, it's really easy to wear. Next I have the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer, here for £29.00. I love finding a good primer, I've tried some awful ones in the past that just made my foundation slip off my face. That is not the case with this one, It keeps my face on all day! It's a really good base, I have dry skin but this says it is for all skin types. Expensive but worth it! 

Next I have a little stationary favourite. It is from my all time favourite stationary shop Paperchase. I got this as a present from one of my classmates, so I'm not sure how much it cost. I absolutely love stationary and I think this notebook is gorgeous, I love the design. To be honest I love anything from Paperchase! 

Moving onto skincare, firstly I have the Tea Tree Toner Water, here for £3.95. I only picked up the small size at first, just to see if I liked it. After using it for a few weeks I will definitely be getting the larger one once this runs out. It makes my skin feel really refreshed. It smells gorgeous and is a total must have! Then I have the EOS Hand Lotion in Berry Blossom, here for £8.00. I've tried EOS's legendary lip balms which I love so I thought I would give the hand lotion a go! I don't really have dry hands, but I like to keep them soft. This lotion smells amazing and makes my hands so so soft! I also think the packaging is so cute! 

Finally I got a new phone last month which I am in love with so I thought I would include it. I got the iPhone 5S. After 2 years of having the 4S and it totally dying on me towards the end, this new phone couldn't have come quicker! I just love how it looks, I chose the gold colour. It's more of a champagne, rose gold. I just love it!

  • I already use the loreal hair oil and I love it, I am currently in the decision process of whether i should take on holiday with me back packing, but the glass bottle is annoying. But it really makes my hair so manageable and smells nice !! xx

      I'm obsessed with it! The glass bottle is a tad annoying for travelling though, it does smell amazing!
