February Favourites

I've had some things that I have been LOVING thoroughout the most of February so I thought that I'd share them with you, here goes!

Herbal Essences 0% Naked Volumising Shampoo and Conditioner - I've spoken about these two in a previous post but I really do love them, they give me so much volume whilst not compromising on shine. A total winner. I only picked these up because Sainsbury's had run out of my usual shampoo and conditioner but I do not regret it one bit, if you are in need of new hair care soon I strongly suggest you pick these up and give them a try.

Candles - I went up to the Oxford Street Primark a few weeks ago and spent about 20 minutes going round and sniffing all of the different scents of candles. I came across 'Wild Orchird' which smelt divine! I'm terrible at describing smells but if I had to sum it up it's basically a very musky yet sweet scent. And at only £1 I couldn't not pick it up. They're so long lasting too and the packaging is adorably cute.

Fairy lights - Yet again I picked these up in the Oxford Street Primark. They were £4 and are battery operated so massive plus. I've wrapped them round the headboard of my bed and they look super cute making my room have a really nice warm glow with a homey feel. I've had cheap fairy lights before but so far these are holding up stronger than the others.

Real techniques stippling brush - I recently purchased the Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation and felt that when I applied it for the first time it was a bit too full coverage for me, I then picked up the Stippling Brush which I had bought in the US last year because it was so ridiculously cheap but haven't really used it. I applied the foundation using it and it was so silky smooth and airy with a lighter coverage. So I recommend this if that is the sort of effect you want to go for with your foundation.

Lush elbow grease - I have ridiculously dry skin (I'll do a blog post on that sometime soon) and it needs constant moisturising otherwise it just cracks and hurts like hell...not fun. I got given some of the Lush 'Elbow Grease' for Christmas, it's something that I'd never seen in Lush before and I'm a huge Lush fan. After using it just before I went to bed I woke up with perfectly smooth hydrated skin, it's a saviour! It's quite oily on application and I know that won't be popular with some people so just be warned. It also melts quite quickly and if an almost creamy consistently. Either way I love it and if you're like me and have terribly dry skin you may want to give this a try.

Barry M Nail Paint in 66, Matt White - This is a perfect white, I was getting quite bored of the same old deep red on my nails so picked this one up as most of my others I already owned had gone gloopy. It's got a really great fanned brush so three strokes and you're done, it also doesn't require a second coat which is just as well as I can only really stop fidgeting long enough to let one layer dry let alone two! I really do love Barry M polishes though but this is a new favourite.

Stylfile emergency nail file - Oh my goodness, this has saved me so much trouble recently. I didn't know how much I needed it until I got one. I've just hooked it onto my keys and it's there when I need it. It's shape makes it so quick to use and its size is perfect for my bag.

Cadburys Dairy Milk Fruit and Nut - I've never been a massive fan of flavoured chocolates, I usually just stick to plain old cadburys dairy milk but this month I branched out and tried their fruit and nut, mainly because it was on offer. But my oh my it was good, it was the same smooth, creamy consistency I was used to but had a really nice crunch. I'll certainly be having this more often!

Best Fiends - I know everyone and their mother has been talking about this game and I was pretty late jumping on the bandwagon, but now I'm hooked. It's a similar concept to that of Candy Crush Saga so if your familiar with that then it will be pretty easy to pick up. I downloaded it last week and I'm already on level 45 maybe not too good for my revision so I might have to go ahead and delete it until  Summer but it's such a good game.

There you go, that's it. They are my February favourites.

Let me know if products or things that you think I should try.

I'll see you next Sunday at 5pm GMT,
Love, Lily xoxo
