September Favourites

Firstly, if you've read my last post you'll know i had no camera, however i just couldn't stand not being able to postpone my September Favourites any longer! Ive had to take these pictures using my phone, so understandably they're a bit hit and miss!

Batiste Dry Shampoo Tropical £4.99 - here

Ive been having a bit of a greasy hair month throughout September - i need to find a new shampoo! This has been my saviour, and gives me that extra day between washes.

O.P.I Avojuice Skin Quenchers in Crisp Apple - here

My hands have definitely felt the wrath of the cold weather, and this is doing just the trick - so much so I've nearly used it all! :(

No7 Exceptional Definition Mascara in Black £11 - here

This is also nearly ran out, yet it continues to make my lashes long and thick - this will always be a winner in my eyes!

Christina Aguilera Eau de Parfum £16.90 -here

Ive actually used this up this month, thats how much i love it! It reminds me of being in New York, so this is a very nostalgic smell for me!

MUA Sugar Lips Lip Balm £2 - here

These are amazing, I've just wrote a review on these to expect that very soon! They've given my lips just what they need in this cold weather

Barry M Nail Paint in Rasberry £2.99 - here

I LOVE this - i will be wearing this all Autumn - its the perfect colour for this time of the year, and its really chip resistant, which is what we need when wearing dark nail colours! This is definitely my all time favourite product this month, and you'll probably see it next month too!

My other favourites include a MAC blusher brush (129SE - here) and a Barry M Shimmering Eye and Lip Crayon £4.59 (here) (these pictures wouldn't upload). Ive used both these products daily and find the quality amazing. 

Non-beauty Favourites

The Hills - I've just started watching these from the beginning - 'you know what you did', Whitney falling down the stairs, and THAT rumour - what more could i want?

Galaxy Ripples - enough said really, these are divine and i need to stop eating them!

I hope you enjoyed this months favourites, sorry again for the poopy photos - i just really cannot find my charger anywhere, I'm lost ! :(

See you next month !

NOTD: DIY French Manicure

There will come a time in our lives when bright nails aren't appropriate, or we want to feel posh. A french manicure is perfect for these times, and with a little practice, theres no reason why we can't do one ourselves! 

Of course there are hundreds of polishes out there you can use to do this, but these are the ones i like to use.

L.A colours in French Nails Pink - here

OPI RapiDry TopCoat - here

Barry M Nail Paint in Matt White - here

The steps could not be simpler!

1. Paint 2 coats of a half moon shape over the white part of your nail (if you have shorter nails, you can cheat and make your white bit look longer ;) ) and wait to dry.

2. Paint 1 coat of the pink (i found that 2 coats don't work with this particular polish) and wait to dry.

3. Use a top coat to keep manicure in place for longer

4. Wear pretty jewellery on your hands so that everyone notices your lady like hands!

BIG collective haul

Im getting to the stage now where I'm running out of my favourite products, and whilst I'm trying to use up as many things as i can in a bid to downsize my collection, I'm still on the hunt for bargains and wonder products! So this is what happened... 

I found these in Sainsburys, and the fact they were 70% off (meaning i paid around £1 for each product) made this a no brainer.

Buff Your Stuff Body Scrub

Bare Necessity Body Lotion

All of a Lather Body Wash

Superdrug are currently holding a 3 for 2 offer on all cosmetics, and seen as id ran out of 2 of my most favourite products, i thought there was no better time to stock up.

Barry M Nail Paint in Berry Ice Cream £2.99

here

Collection 2000 Naturally Matt Foundation in Ivory £2.99

here

MUA Mosaic Blush in English Rose £2.50

here

This was a repurchase as i LOVE it!

Superdrug Vitamin E Skin Care Hot Cloth Cleanser £5.99

here

Ive heard too much about this, and if its anything like Liz Earle ill be one happy lady!

 I took a trip to TK Maxx for a spot of holiday shopping, and got these instead. Essie seems to be all the rage at the minute, and with 3 polishes for £9.99, i couldn't resist!

Bordeaux

I have no idea what shade this is which is really frustrating!

Capri

I saw these and thought they were PERFECT to take on holiday, they're teeny tiny and for £7.99 i thought this was great!

(L-R) 54, 51, 46, 52, 37

£2.50 - Tesco

This has fast become one my most favourite makeup products. Although some products from this range are priced a little higher, i couldn't believe how cheap this was! 

Simple Facial Wash - here

Simple Moisturiser - here

Ive nearly ran out of my clearasil gear, which means a change in my skincare routine!

To try combat my dry skin, I'm going to try out simple.
