April Favourites

Hey Everybody!!

So, today I am going to tell you my favourites for the month of April, I haven’t done a favourites post before and i’m super excited!!

My first favourite for this month is the Palmers Cocoa Butter moisturiser.

I purchased it after having a bad spell of eczema (I though i had gotten over it ) for £2.99 in a little shop called Victoria London (you can get it in most places). As most of my friends know this isn’t something I would normally buy as my skin is very sensitive so I tend to stick to the stuff I know doesn’t irritate me but in the spur of the moment I brought it and i’m glad I did! It has cleared my eczema up and has left my skin extremely soft, I would recommend it to anyone.

My next favourite is a pair of high-waisted jeans I brought from TopShop.

I don’t really know what to say about these apart from the could be the worlds comfiest; this was tried and tested on the 6 hour return journey from London. Oh and however comfy they may be they aren’t the cheapest at £40 but it was well worth the spend.

Another favourite for this month is the VO5 heat protect spray.

When I went to the hairdressers last month, my hairdresser recommended  VO5s Heat Protect  spray as I blow-dry my hair often and I can truly say it has changed my hair. Before using this my hair was dry and dull, but since using this product it has given my hair a healthy shine whilst protecting my hair from heat damage, LOVE IT!!!

The album I have been loving this month is Bastille’s Bad Blood.

 

 

I know this is not the newest release but I have recently discovered it and have fallen back in love with it, I mean is is constantly on repeat. At the moment my favourite song is Daniel In The Den but it keeps changing! I can’t wait for their next release.

See you soon,
