February Favourites

That's it Februarys over so that means for you guys a new blog post, without me going on and on lets just jump right into it.

The first thing I'm going to talk about first is skincare. I've been wearing fake tan a lot so that means I've had to exfoliate my skin too so the one I've been using is the Soap and Glory Sugar Crush body exfoliator with smashed brown sugar, Sweet lime, Almond oil and Macadamia Grains and honestly this does smell like Lime its one of the best smelling things Soap and Glory have done. After using the scrub I like to use the Zoella beauty soak opera and im not just saying this because I like Zoella's videos but this smells soooo good it smells like vitamin E, Shea Butter and Aloe extracts but honestly I just think it smells like Shea Butter. As most of you know when you come out the bath/shower your skins a bit dry and my skin has been the driest its ever been :(. So after looking around in my body box ( I have a box full of body stuff) I pulled out two that I feel work really well for my skin and they are the Soap and Glory Smoothie Star with Almond, Cocoa , Yogurt, Oats and Honey and OH MY GOD if this was an actual smoothie I would 100% drink this...is that bad? and the Vaseline essential moisture pure oats extract this smell takes me back to when I was about 20/21 ish... I seem to like the smell of oats this month...



Next up is hair and honestly my hair has been shit and I mean shit. Its felt lifeless, dull, dry and greasy all at the same time. Can your hair even be all of those? But after using these products I have found that my hair feels a wee bit better but still not 100% yet but the products I've been using are the Garnier Ultimate Blends Honey treatment shampoo and conditioner, the Loreal Kids Pear Detangaler and the Primark hask Argan Oil from Morocco. You're probably wondering em why is she using something for kids and that is because my hair gets tangled really easily and I mean easily I tie it up take it out and oh look a big clump of hair at the back of my head.



Next  is teeth I have been trying for sooooo long to get my teeth looking a wee bit whiter so I have been using the Arm and Hammer baking soda minty toothpaste gel Brilliant Sparkle and I like to use this before I use my Macleans white and Shine and I know this sounds daft but I love the feeling this has on my teeth, and lastly is Aqua Fresh Extra care mint breeze alcohol free and I love this it does have a wee bit of a burn to it but it works well.



I had mentioned that my body has been feeling dry but my hands have been super dry. Every time I wash my hands they just feel so tight now just not healthy so I have been using the Soap and Glory Hand dream Number 1 formula super cream and this smells like grapeseed, macadamia and shea butter... I think there's a smell theme in this post. Up next is nails I know I said in my blog post last month that I was loving Essie Fiji and I again this month I am, it is just this beautiful off white pink colour that looks amazing on any skin tone. Along with Fiji I have been loving the Boots own Nails acetone free nail polish remover... I know how can I be loving a nail polish remover? well I hate the ones with acetone as I feel it ruins my nails.

This is annoying because the nail polish is coming off as this blue sort of colour.

 
 

Now my favourite part make up Ive not really been grabbing much this month but I have been grabbing the Match perfection foundation by Rimmel in the shade ivory this works for me when I'm on my third or fourth day of tanning and for when Im just going to the gym or a class ( and by class I mean Spin class, Metafit and Step tone). Another foundation is again another Rimmel foundation and that is the Lasting finish nude 25 hour... I don't actually know if this foundation last for 25 hours as I take my makeup off at night.

 


As usual here's an over view of all the products I have been using this month if you guys would like me to go into more detail of any of the products I have used this month just leave  a comment down below and I will get back to you.

With that being said I hope you guys have had a fun weekend so until next time stay beautiful
