April Favourites





Hullo Guy's and Girl's,

I thought this month, I'd do an April favourites blog about all the stuff I've been liking recently. I've tried to make it varied, so let's get stuck in shall we? (In no particular order..)

First on my list of favourite things are, these lovely mint plimsoles courtesy of primark for £3.00 For that price you can't really go wrong, they come in a range of different pastel/candy colours perfect for this time of year. I've been wearing these beauties for about 4 weeks & there still in pretty good condition. 

Second on my list of favourite things are both pairs, of my didn't break the bank sunnies. Because I couldn't choose between them, and I love them both equally. The first pair (pictured below) are from New Look, they are the Tortoiseshell Retro Frame Sunglasses £2.99.
The second pair are my Jewelled aviators, again from Primark, £3.00 
All I can say is, everyone looks good in aviators.
My favourite beverage, this month (weird I know!) Now the sun is out my love/need for iced coffee, has returned, with a vengeance. I wouldn't say I'm a big coffee drinker. I enjoy things with a hint, of coffee, hence the reason I am partial to a Starbucks, I alway like there seasonal coffee's as it's always paired with something that takes the edge off.
I've been enjoying these caffionata Latte things, that you can pick up in all supermarkets. Especially the vanilla & caramel one's.  

I've had this product for a while,I brought it shortly after it was released. But I've only recently been able to enjoy using it. It's the Naked Flushed blush pallet. From Urban Decay. Now, I don't know about you, but I used to be a bit afraid of blushers, mainly sticking to bronzers. Due to the fact I always had a little redness in the check area. But this really is good, especially if you're new to the cheek biz. As it comes with blusher, highlighter & bronzer all for £20 & if it's anything like the Naked eyeshadow pallet, it will last you ages. It defiantly helps you to achieve that ''spring glow" that everyone's after.

I'm not much of a cinema goer these day's as I live on a budget & I find buying a dvd, is cheaper then going to the cinema these day's, (These days, cause I'm ancient. ;]) Anyway this film completely bypassed me, until a friend recommended it, that is.

The perks of being a Wallflower; based on  the book.Truly is a heart moving, coming of age, film that chart's the wonderful highs and crashing low's of growing up. I must admit I didn't have high hopes for this film, but it completely surpassed any of my expectations & now I highly recommend it. 


The last 2 products on my April favourites list are both bath/shower products so I thought why not, kill 2 bird's with 1 stone & all that jazz. As I use these together, include them together.
First, Radox Moisturise with chamomile & Jojoba oil, I will start by saying I don't always use Radox, its just that it was on offer, so when in rome & that. I really like this, mainly the smell I find is calming yet fresh, it lathers really well, a little bit goes a long way and I do find after using it my skin does feel softer. 
And now for the Dove Silky nourishment shimmer effect body lotion. 
I got this as a part of a christmas gift, but haven't got round to using it until recently. Again I wouldn't say Dove, is a natural go-to product for me. But I've been enjoying this along with the radox, they seem to complement each other, nicely.
Now that it's started to get warmer I've been wanting to moisturise, but with a moisturiser that has a lighter feel to it. A posed to the heaver more intense creamy moisturiser that I use during the winter months.
This has been perfect. It has a thinner consistency but sinks into the skin nicely without leaving any residue or horrible artificial smell. The only downside, is there does't seem to be 'shimmer' quality too it. 


Hope you enjoyed this post. Let me know if you guy's try any of these products and let me know what you think.
