April Favourites


Sorry I'm a bit late on this one. I'm now in my final two weeks of uni ever so it's interview and essay central, busy busy busy! Anyway, most of this month's favourites are goodies from my #NottsBBMeet goody bag because I've been playing with them all and trying them out.


Neal & Wolf Daily Cleansing Shampoo- Neal & Wolf are not a brand I had heard of actually but I have been loving how soft and healthy this has made my hair feel. Also, because it's cleansing I find I can leave my hair unwashed for an extra day and it gets a lot less greasy so I'm very impressed! Available on the Neal & Wolf website for £10.95.


Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser- If you've read my Battle of the Cleansers part 2 post you'll know how much I rave about this luxurious feeling cleanser. Starter Kit available for £14.95.

Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic- I have only just started using toner and this is one i'm enjoying, it does freshen and brighten my skin and makes it feel super clean after cleansing. Available here for £13.25.


Simple Hydrating Light Moisturiser- I think I have found the perfect moisturiser, I love this because I hate heavy- feeling moisturisers that take a while to sink in. This absorbs instantly and feels like I'm wearing nothing at all but still stops my skin from getting sore and dry. Available here for only £3.79.


Keihl's Actively Correcting & Beautifying BB Cream- Now I'm new onto the BB cream market but I've been loving using this! It gives great coverage and when I remove my make up I can see that it has actually done my skin good- smaller pores, more even skin-tone. It doesn't smell great but that quickly fades, full review coming soon. Available here for £23.50.


W7 Lashtastic False Liquid Lashes Mascara- I wasn't expecting much from this mascara but I was very impressed! The plastic brush is great for lengthening and separating lashes and the formula is long lasting. Unfortunately, after about a week it started to clump but for the price it is still pretty amazing! Available here for only £1.50. 


Sigma mini Blending brush E25- After wanting a blending brush for ages, this is brilliant and so soft. Full Size available here for £13.99

Sigma mini Eyeliner brush E05- This has literally changed the way I do eyeliner, no more thick lines. This helps me apply a really thin line perfectly. Full Size available here for £13.95.




MUA Undressed Eyeshadow palette- I'm late on the bandwagon for this but I have a new found love for neutrals. There are so many looks I can do with this palette and I'm loving experimenting! Available here for only £4.00..

I still can't believe I was lucky enough to try lots of these things for free!
What have you been loving in April?

August Favourites

Being a new beauty blogger, It's hard for me to determine between monthly favourites that I want to mention and all time favourites! But here is what I came up with...




Accessorize Nail Polish in Aztec- This is an amazing colour that I reviewed here I call it 'mermaid'.

No7 High Shine SPF 15 in Smile- I love this gloss in this lovely pink. These glosses are so long lasting, when the gloss has gone the colour still lasts on my lips. Reviewed here.

No7 High Shine SPF 15 in Whisper- This one is more glittery in a nude tone but still loving it.

Benefit Porefessional- Honestly, visible pores aren't really an issue for me but I've been using this as a primer and it gives a lovely matte base for foundation. This is a sample I got with Glamour a while back.

Benefit Triple Performing Facial Emulsion SPF 15- This is a sample I got from a benefit counter and I'm liking it, It doesn't leave my skin feeling greasy or oily.

Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover- I reviewed this here and I'll say it again, It's a wonder product! It's changed the way I remove polish and made me paint my nails more because it's just so easy.


n-spa Fruit vanilla creme brulee body cream- I bought this as a body butter and it's actually thinner like a body lotion. I just love it and the smell is devine. I'm really disappointed that this has been discontinued from the range at ASDA.

Johnson's face care daily essentials gentle exfoliating wash- I've got really sensitive skin but need something to keep the spots at bay and this is a good product, it's not too harsh on my skin.

n-spa Fruit vanilla creme brulee shower and bath gel- This product has also been discontinued which I'm sad about. I love the smell and the dual purpose works well.

Wilko Fruity Berry shower smoothie- This is a nice exfoliating shower cream because it's gentle,again, on my sensitive skin. I've had many exfoliating products which leave my skin too dry and are too harsh but this has less 'beads' and moisturises at the same time.

Aussie 3 minute miracle reconstructor- This product actually is a miracle for my hair! I use a lighter conditioner everyday and only use this every 2/3 weeks but after one use my hair smells amazing and is so much softer and healthier.
