April Favourites!

Considering we're nearly in double figures and I haven't done my April favourites yet, is a bit shocking, come on Hannah you're slacking! The reason I have put my favourites off for so long is because money is a bit tight at the moment, so I haven't had anything new throughout the month, so all of my favourites are old gems and some are not beauty related and you may think I'm very weird by the end.

Let's start off with the Bubblegum lip scrub from Lush




This stuff is a life saver I originally had it for Christmas and used it a couple of times around then, but I never really noticed a difference because I didn't apply it right. I recently decided to try it again after I saw a YouTube video of someone using it, so I tried it again and I was really pleasantly surprised at the results, it tastes delicious, as it is partly made from sugar, so it tastes and smells amazing. It is a little pricey at £5.25, but that could just be not liking to spend a lot of money, if you want to check you can here!

Next up is a product from Simple, it's the kind to skin cleansing facial wipes


This product will forever be one of my favourites, as it's just brilliant, it removes make up and keeps the skin fresh. I use this every morning and every night and it keeps my skin looking healthy and feeling healthy. I have sensitive skin and once when I was using a cheap brand of wipes they left my face burning and blotchy which was not good, let's just put it that way. These wipes are just amazing seriously  I have been using them for a good couple of years now and even my mum uses them, haha. Check them out here!

The next item is not beauty related in fact it is cereal. It's frosted wheats


When I was younger this was probably my second favourite cereal, as coco pops always won and then after a while I stopped having these, so when I went to Tesco a couple of weeks back I remembered that these used to be nice and that I had them when I was little, so I wanted to try them again and I'm so glad that I did. These are exactly what they say on the box they are frosted wheats, so it's basically wheat covered in sugar. Now I never normally have time to eat cereal in a morning, but ever since buying these I have made an effort to eat it and haven't missed a day yet. They're just so good and remind me a bit of my childhood.

Last favourite is a group/ band whatever you want to call them, it's Bastille
Not my picture

I'm really ashamed that I've only started listening to these recently, as they are amazing! My all time favourite song by them is Of the night, as it is beautiful. The other songs I like by them are Pompeii, Flaws and Laura Palmer, although I like all of the songs on the album. If you haven't heard anything by them yet then you definitely should and if they're not your type of music then...I don't even know, haha.

February Favourites

February hasn't been a bad month for beauty products. I've tried new products and even rekindled my love for some older ones. These are the products that I have been loving through February!



Soap and Glory - Body wash - Sugar Crush LINK



I have been using this product for a couple of months now. I bought it in December and have used it every time that I've had a shower since then! Considering the amount of times that I've used it, I still have a lot of it left, it's lasted a lot longer than I thought it was going to. The smell is also great, my mum and I both love it! The soap also leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft, which is great.

The Body Shop - Japanese Cherry Blossom Body Mist LINK




I've been loving this! This just smells great, I wear it most days and it's just a nice scent it's light, fruity and floral. It's not an overpowering smell, but a couple of people have noticed it and commented on how nice it smells. I bought this at the start of February and I've used it that much that most of it has gone; I've used at least half of it!


The Body Shop - Born Lippy in Pomegranate LINK


I have been using this product everyday since I bought it around the start of the month, and it's definitely a favourite. I suffer with chapped lips a lot, especially in the winter and thanks to this they haven't been that bad, once my lips started to get chapped I would put this on every morning and within two days it would be cleared up. It also leaves a red tint to lips and tastes great! 


The Body Shop - Vitamin E Moisture Cream LINK




I haven't had this product for a long time, but I love it! It's great for dry skin, as that is the reason that I bought it because I was getting really dry skin on my face and this cleared 99% of it up over night! It also leaves skin feeling soft and smooth and not sticky. When applying you don't need to use a lot, I dip my finger into the cream and if I do that about four times, I've used enough for my whole face. See my full review here link

Primark - Nail Varnish Remover Wipes




My mum bought me these back after she had been shopping. They come in a pack of two and are great! When I first saw them, my first thoughts were that they were going to be terrible and that it was a waste of a £1, but I tried them and they are brilliant. By far the best nail varnish remover wipes around. I prefer using wipes and I've tried a lot of brands and only found one that I liked, but then this came along! These are just amazing. The wipes are only little, but I managed to only use two (One for each hand) These also smell great, I hate the smell of nail varnish remover, but these don't smell like nail varnish remover at all.
