The Body Shop - Rainforest Volume Shampoo & Conditioner - £5 each

Rainforest Volume shampoo and conditioner have recently become my go to hair washing products. That don't contain any colourants or parabens but the real reason I first bought these products was the fact they don't contain silicones. I'm no expert but I'd heard for some time that silicones were very bad for your hair (although now I've come to find out there is bad and good points to them) so I decided I wanted to try some products that don't contain it. Products containing silicones usually make your hair look more silky which on my hair hardly ever works so trying out a shampoo without this substance in it didn't seem like a big deal. Silicones usually make the shampoo froth up and therefore this shampoo doesn't do this, unless you rub it in your hands with water but it's still not as frothy as a normal shampoo. However, if you can get past that this is a beautiful shampoo and conditioner that smell really nice but not too strong so it smells more natural. Overall, I'm really impressed with these products and will be using them for a long time. 

Yankee Candle - Clean Cotton Scent - £ --

I'm sure you've all heard of this candle scent before or if not you would have most likely at least heard of the brand. I've been a big fan of Yankee Candles for years now and can't fault them. This particular fragrance has always been a favourite of mine and therefore when I got a large version of it as a christmas present it was obvious I'd fall in love with it and burn it most days. If you love natural, clean smells, or the smell of clean clothing you will definitely love this candle! It also burns for ages so trust me, it's well worth it!

Too Faced - Semi-Sweet Chocolate Bar - £39

This eye shadow palette is my go to at the moment. The colours are beautiful, I really enjoy natural colours and this palette is perfect for that. The smell of these eye shadows is amazing, they do smell like chocolate, although I could see this being a problem if you don't like chocolate or are not feeling well. I will admit I first wanted the original chocolate bar but when we went in to get it (my boyfriend actually got it) the normal chocolate one wasn't in stock and I stupidly thought this one was it. Now I am so glad I got this one instead of the original because the colours in this are unbelievable and so pretty! Although I am also thinking of splurging on the other palette but might wait until my birthday for that one!

Marc Jacobs - Daisy, Eau So Fresh - £--

It is no surprise that I'm telling you how amazing this perfume is. I am a big fan of the daisy range, especially Daisy Dream, but I think this perfume actually know tops it. The Daisy perfumes always smell very fresh (most of these favourites smell very fresh don't they?!?) and this perfume is no exception. This perfume is definitely a sweet, fresh fragrance, again very natural smelling. I have had many compliments when wearing this perfume so it's a crowd pleaser as well. The bottle is also very pretty, with the typical large flower top, which can be annoying when trying to fit it in a bag but it does look very pretty sat on the side. 

Benefit - They're Real Mascara Mini - £10

Benefit make amazing mascaras, that's nothing new. This one in particular has been raved about again and again but I had never tried it before this month. I was a massive fan of Roller Lash when that came out and can't believe I hadn't tried this one any earlier. I like how long it makes my lashes look, even though my lashes are terrible it makes them look the best they can be. One thing I would say though is because I have very small eyes it can rub off near my crease which can be annoying but as long as you notice it you can rub it off easily so it's not that bad. 

Lush - Don't Rain On My Parade Shower Gel - £5 (sale!)

I got this shower gel in the lush january sales and I'm pretty sure it was around £5 which is amazing for how much product you get! I couldn't believe I hadn't come across this shower gel before because it is now my favourite shower gel to use, I even like it more than snow fairy! The scent of this product is a lot different to many of Lush's over products and is definitely one that both women and men would enjoy. It's got hints of vanilla and violet (some say it smells like parma violets) but it's such a nice different smell, if you don't usually like some of lush products definitely check out this one because you may be surprised! Also the colour is a vibrant green/blue which looks amazing, you feel like you are going to come out of the bath like a smurf but you don't, luckily. 

There you go, there's my favourites! Hope you enjoyed this post and please check out my youtube channel as I will be posting many more beauty related videos soon! Thanks for reading and please, let me know what you think of these products!

Morning everyone, hope you all have had a lovely week, I've had a week of trying to find apprenticeships and work experience within film but it seems very hard to find a place. But none the less, I'm sure I''ll find something soon enough. Moving on to the subject of today's post, my May favourites. May seemed to fly by, this whole year has been going so quickly so far I can't believe it is already summer! Soon enough we will all be sitting around a decorated table waiting for someone to bring in a turkey to start our christmas dinner. Ok, maybe not just yet but it does feel like it's not too far away!

My first favourite of the month is none other than lush's Comforter. The comforter is a bubble bar that you crumble under running water, leaving the bath a lovely pinky/purple colour and smelling like a sweet berry. I know this is a well loved lush product but only first tried it out last month. I got it as a birthday present and couldn't believe I hadn't tried it before. I have now repurchased it again as it creates such a soothing bath.

My next favourite is Barry M's Chisel Cheeks Contour Kit. Now I will admit I am not the greatest at makeup, I'm no beauty guru, but I wanted to try this out as I had heard it was a good product for it's price. I think it's a great contour kit to start out on and I usually use it to just add a bit more colour to my face. 

I had been looking for a nice skin exfoliator for a while when I came across L'Oreal's Skin Perfection Radiance Revealing Gentle Exfoliator. This product promised it would make skin smoother whilst making it brighter without having the tight skin feeling. Firstly, I was a bit skeptical but after using this product a couple of times I fell in love with the outcome. My skin felt so much smoother, even in my dry areas and looked tones better too!

I am the biggest fan of Benefit's Roller Lash so when I heard there was a cheaper alternative I couldn't wait to try it and see if it was any good. I was pleasantly surprised with Maybelline's Lash Sensational Mascara. It has the same time of wand as Roller Lash but is a bit thicker and leaves your lashes looking thicker too. The only problem with this mascara is that it gets a little bit clumpy but other than that it is a great alternative. 

I have become the biggest fan of bright lipsticks at the moment and Maybelline's Colour Sensation Vivid in Electric Orange is one of my favourites. I had always wanted to try an orange coloured lipstick but never got round to it, however, I'm so glad I eventually did because this one is such a lovely shade. 

Now my last favourite is a pair of tan heeled sandals from New Look that I can't seem to find on the website. I bought these for a night out, as I'm not great in heels I wanted to go with something that would be comfortable and these definitely were. I really liked these as well as they are very summery and I think they would look great even with a day time outfit.

That is all my favourites of the month, hope you enjoyed this post as much as I did writing it and I'll be back within another post very soon.
