November Favourites

Hello All,

Long time no speak. So it has been a considerable amount of time since I last posted something and I can only apologise, I have just been so busy, time has just run away with itself.

I thought I would come back and share a favourites with you as it has been a few months since my last one. Now things have changed a little and I have really had to curb my spending habits as I have reduce the amount of hours I am working in my part time job and this equals a seriously poor Bexx. Because of this I haven't been able to try out too many new products as my bank balance just won't allow it but I have uncovered some old favourites as well as some fashion and lifestyle favourites too.

Bare minerals mineral veil powder

I stole this from my mums make-up bag as she never uses it! I really like this powder, it provides great lasting power but doesn't look cakey on the skin. Also it is transparent so there isn't any added colour here.

MAC dark deed

I got this lipstick as a gift last christmas, and quite frankly was a little scared by just how dark it was. However this month I discovered it and thought I would give it another go, and know I am in love! I just pat this in with my finger, as it is so dark a little goes a long way but it is such a gorgeous plum shade I can't believe it has taken me a year to realise it!

Body shop tea tree cool and creamy face wash

This was in my September Favourties so I won't ramble on about it too much but this stuff has reached holy grail status for me. I does an amazing job of really purifying the skin and keeping the blemishes at bay but is not at all drying, I use this every morning and absolutely love it!

Vo5 Plump it up Mousse

As I have expressed in previous posts, my hair sometimes resembles a pancake. I was a little fearful of putting mousse in my hair as I always associate it with crispy, crunchy hair from my teenage days but in an attempt to get more volume I thought I would give it a go. I put some of this on freshly washed hair and it just adds a really nice lift to the roots. This is also a heat defence - added bonus!

Benefit Posietint

I got this mini in a little set with sun beam and cha-cha tint. I was a little confused by this to start with, mostly about how to apply it so it got thrust to the back of the draw for a while. I have found that if I put it on my hand and then pat it into my cheeks, this way it leaves a really natural flush that really brightens the face.

Turtle neck jumpers

Roll neck, turtle neck, whatever you want to call them, I love them. I find them very warm but also very easy to wear and layer up. They have become my go to thing to chuck on when I am not sure what to wear.

How to get away with murder

If you haven't watched this yet, then you are seriously missing out. I know I am a law student so this immediately appealed to me, but I do really think it would appeal to a lot of people. It is set in a university law school and is based around 4 law students who have murdered someone. It is a true murder mystery, I am now 6 episodes in an still none the wiser as to who killed the victim and why!

So there it is, my monthly favourites. I seriously cannot believe it is nearly the end of 2014, I know we all say it every year but this one really has flown by. I will try my best to start uploading regular posts again.

Until next time,

RebeccaAnn.

June Favourites

Hello everyone,

I have missed out favourites for a few months now so apologies for that but I haven't really felt as though I had too many favourites to rave about, this month however I have plenty to chat about.

Dove shampoo and conditioner
I know this is a little random but my mum recently picked up dove shampoo, conditioner and bodywash and I think they are seriously nice products. When I think of dove I immediately think of the classic dove soap smell (you know the one?) and thats not something I am really a fan of, but this smells amazing and left my hair super soft, I was so impressed.

Shy girl - MAC
I don't own many MAC lipsticks but I was on the hunt for the perfect nude and I figured with MAC's huge shad range I was bound to find something and sure enough I did! This shade is a beautiful peachy nude which I think compliments my skin tone really well. I wear this near enough every day. An all over winner for me and likely to be a favourite for a long time to come.

L'oreal true match foundation
I picked this up after hearing some pretty fantastic things about it and I must say this really is a lovely foundation. It is a very runny liquid, I find it is best applied with the Real Techniques miracle complexion sponge as this gives the most flawless finish. It is medium coverage and looks really lovely and dewy on the skin. They also have a pretty impressive shade range for a drugstore foundation.

Naked 3
I got this for my birthday at the beginning of the month and it was love at first swatch. I had been lusting after this for so long and it truly is just the most beautiful thing ever! I am generally not a day to day eyeshadow wearer but this has converted me and I have worn eyeshadow nearly everyday since receiving this!

Non Beauty Favourites

Birkenstocks
I recently did a post on these so check it out for more info but I am literally obsessed! I wear them all the time, they are so comfortable and I feel literally go with everything. These are most certainly a summer staple for me.

Reading //




The fault in our stars
Since finishing uni I have had a lot more spare time on my hands and I have really got back into reading. I read the fault in our stars knowing that the film was coming out soon and hearing lots of great things about it. Although a very sad book (had to put it down I cried so much) it is also very real and heartwarming, I thoroughly enjoyed it.






Fractured
I have also just finished reading Fractured which was a very good book that takes some surprising twists and turns, I don't want to say much more or give too much away but a very good book and something a little different to the sort of thing I would usually choose which was nice.






Arden Rose
I thought I would start including a youtuber/blogger favourite of the month to share the love a little. Arden Rose is frickin' hilarious and she also has great style. I just love her channel and if you haven't heard of her I would recommending going and watching a few of her videos, you'll be hooked like me before long.
