Hello!
It's nearly the end of May ALREADY. Man, its going quick. Anyway, here's my favourite bits from this month...
BEAUTY:
The Body Shop - Baked-to-Last Bronzer
I honestly don't think this picture does justice to the beauty of this bronzer. It's probably the prettiest product I own, and I just love it. I didn't exactly need a new bronzer when I bought it, but I couldn't walk away from it in the shop, so I just had to buy it... At least that's what I'm telling myself to justify the price. It's one of the more pricey beauty products in my bag, but at £16, I can sort of afford it and it looks fab on my face. The bronzer is extremely shimmery and quite pigmented, so it's quite dark, but I think theres a lighter one available for lighter skin tones? (Don't hold me to it)
An all-round fab bronzer.
Lancรดme - Perfume
(Is perfume a beauty product?)
Ok, this is quite difficult because I have no idea what this perfume is, or how to describe how it smells. I'm not even sure it's lancome(I think it is). I was given this perfume by my parents, who bought it in an airport, so I don't know much about it, except that I love the bottle and the colour and the smell. The lid is the cutest, with a little purple gem on the top to match the colour of the perfume. It smells fresh, and kind of fruity, but I would't be able to identify a fruit that it smells like? It smells good, anyway.
FASHION:
Urban Outfitters - Watch
This isn't exactly a new favourite, but I feel as if I have newly appreciated it this month. I accidentally smashed the glass face of this a while back, and it was fine until I pushed the cracked piece of glass back and it got stuck, preventing the hands from moving. I was not impressed. It was with the repair man for ages, and I was stuck with my old, somewhat less sophisticated purple plastic watch until it was ready, so I was more than glad to see this guy again. I have a new found love for this watch and I have dedicated my life to protecting it from danger (and by that I mean not flailing my arms around quite as wildly anymore).
Another favourite that I have recently begun to appreciate again is the beautiful bracelet, bought for me by my beautiful best friend.
MISCELLANEOUS:
A Work In Progress - Connor Franta
I am incredibly proud to be able to hold this book in my hands, knowing that it was written by a truly talented gentleman who put so much effort into the creation of this masterpiece. The book is written by Connor, as a memoir, and is filled with stories from his experiences growing up and his beautiful photography. Even the cover is beautiful.
Flawless, Con.
Magnifying Mirror - Tiger
Ok, let me start by saying that it is virtually impossible to take a good picture of this mirror. I swear, it may be cursed. Anyway, this was a incredibly good value, only £2, and looks pretty funky sat on my dresser (not on my mum's bed...). It has got a simple wire stand that allows it to flip over from a flattering regular mirror, to a oh-wow-look-how-spotty-you-are, see-everything magnifying mirror on the other side. Once you are able to stop focussing on your skin, its pretty good for using to apply makeup.
So, that's pretty much everything I have been loving this May!
