Favourites over the.. em... months!

Hi lovelies,


I'm having a bit of a stay-at-home day. It is 3.30pm and I'm still in my pyjamas with a lovely big unwashed bun on the top of my head. (mmm yummy ha ha). I will be getting a shower later on (DON'T WORRY!) but for now, I'm enjoying a lazy Saturday in my pyjamas.
So I thought I'd do a post on my favourites, and I know people do monthly favourites but seeing as this is my first and it's kinda in the middle of a month, I'll just be doing a favourites of the past few months. Kind of like things I am obsessed with (I think I did a current obsessions post before!)
So here we go . . .


  • Sure Naturals Deodorant


I have to say, this is my go-to deodorant all the time! I always want to switch things up and try out other brands, but I always seem to go back to this. It comes in the "pink scent" and the "blue scent" (the colour of the tick on the container) and I definitely prefer the pink one, it is so fresh and really keeps me dry through out the day :)


  • Batiste dry shampoo in fresh


I have always loved Batiste dry shampoo, apart from the fact it leaves my hair a bit white sometimes, but what can you do! I know they have a brown one, so maybe I'll try it out :) My favourite is definitely this fresh one; I find the other scents get a little sickening after using them a lot, but this one never seems to annoy my little nose! It smells lovely and "fresh" and clean, perfect for hair that needs a bit of a touch up in between washes!


  • Silvikrin Hairspray


Again, this is my go-to hairspray. You can get the biggest tin of this EVER and it still only being around £2! It comes in tiny tins too, perfect for on the go. It keeps your hair in place and is just all over, a very good and bargain choice for hairspray!


  • Rimmel 25 Hour lasting finish foundation


From my previous posts, you are all bound to know my constant struggles with foundation! I have a lot of acne and very oily skin and I've been through as many foundations as I can think of! If it's the right colour, it doesn't have full coverage. If the colour is awful, the coverage will be amazing. bla bla bla same story all the time! With this foundation - colour 200 is perfect and it is full coverage. PERFECT! Although I don't like how shiny it goes through out the day, I guess I can live with that, all that is needed is a touch up with powder, my next go to and most favourite in this list...


  • Rimmel stay matte powder

Again, my all time favourite powder! It's cheap, if you get it in translucent it's perfect for everyone, and it keeps shiny makeup looking matte! Really good for setting foundation and it is just a great powder, I have been repurchasing for years :)

  • Nivea soft cream

This is another favourite of mine. I've only ever had Avon cream before this, which was tricky to get a hold of cause you have to order it online etc. This is available on the high street for a reasonable price too. It's lovely and soft, not too heavy, and works great as a base under makeup :) It can also be used on any body part and comes in a great big tub like this.

  • Max Factor lash extension mascara



You know how I love my mascara! And the amount that I am dying to try and have been through... well this is my all time favourite! It separates, lengthens and blackens. You can put on just a little for the day and then add more coats for the night, over all a very good mascara :)


  • Models Own Nail polishes



I've really been enjoying these nail polishes recently. I have "nude beige" and "vintage pink". Vintage pink being my favourite so far. They are £5 in the UK. They go on really well which surprised me as their brushes are rather small, and I usually prefer big brushes like the Rimmel Nail polishes. They last a long time, and usually only take 1 coat, depending on the colour. I really like them and their colour selection is awesome :)


I think that's about all I can think of right now! I hope it wasn't too disappointing :) In these kind of posts, I always feel like I am writing way too much, or that you'll get bored half way down the page! So maybe this can be my favourites part 1 and then I'll later maybe to a favourites part 2 , just to not have you constantly scrolling and reading loads all at once!

ANYWAY, thank you for bearing with me! Hope you enjoyed. If you have tried any of these products or recommend some more like them, please comment :)

CIAO LOVELIES!
