January Favourites




Its weird to think the first month of 2015 has come and gone. But just like at the end of every month, its time for my monthly favourites!

Beauty

Sadly, my Collection concealer is coming to the end, so I have been using my Rimmel Wake me Up Concealer a lot more. This is a very brightening concealer, I have noticed there are tiny winy shimmer particles in it, but they are so small you can barely even notice it! I just love this concealer under my eyes, it instantly brightens and makes me look more awake, hence the name.

I have discovered a new mascara favourite which I have a post all about coming up this month! Its the L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes mascara and oh my gosh its incredible! My lashes are so long and curly after I use this and they are so defined and look amazing!

Although I have read many mixed reviews on the Maybelline Baby Skin Primer, I think it is a really good product. I can feel that my makeup lasts a lot longer when I use this and it smoothens out my skin and leaves it feeling very soft! However it doesn't have any coverage or change the appearance of my skin, which is what I thought it was going to do. But apart from that I think its a very good product!

Non-Beauty

If you follow me on instagram, you would've seen some of my posts on my new journal that I picked up last week from TK MAXX. It is so adorable and says "Leave a little kindness wherever you go" which I think is a really cute quote. I am obsessed with it at the moment, the pink and gold just look so lovely together and I have already started writing and doodling inside it. The journal is just a really nice way for me to be organised and write about really random things that I want to write about!

Books

I know I am like SUPER late on the bandwagon with this, but a few days ago I had never read (or seen) Divergent, shocking I know! But I started reading the book at the end of January and I literally couldn't put it down! I finished it in about 3 days which is really fast for me as I am actually a very slow reader. I just think the whole storyline is really good and its a very easy read book. Now I just need to watch the film and get the next book in the trilogy!

Music

I know I featured this in my Current Favourites post in the beginning of January, but I am still in love with 1989 by Taylor Swift. Though I am beginning to get a little bit bored of it, but only because I listened to it so many times. But in a few months I will rediscover it again, I always do that with albums! Anyway, I am including this in my January favourites because I was loving it in the beginning of the month, but not as much anymore!

That is all of my favourites for last month! I hope you enjoyed this blog post, thank you for reading!

Weekend Reading




Weekends are a great time to relax in bed with a cup of tea and a book. My post today is all about weekend reading, for one of those days where you just want to chill and lose yourself in a book. I really like the book: A Walk in the Park by Jill Mansell

This book is about Lara who returns to Bath for her fathers funeral who she hasn't seen in 18 years. She meets her childhood bestfriend Evie who is about to get married - or so she think. Her ex-boyfriend, Flynn who she left 18 years ago, finds out about her secret she's been keeping for all this time. It's a great laid back easy to read book. I'd really recommend it as it is funny and keeps you wanting to read more! Perfect for those Sunday mornings!

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed this blog post, bye!
