April Favourites 2017

These are the products I have been loving in April!

Radox's mandarin and lemongrass shower gel smells absolutely amazing. I love mandarin scented products and the lemongrass gives it an extra kick. I will definitely be buying this one again!

I have been using this pink jasmine lip balm from Avon this month and I love it. It is a great size for your pocket or handbag and the consistency is exactly as I like it. It is smooth and balmy with no nasty aftertaste and it prevents my lips from drying out.

I have been wearing my cushion cut peridot necklace a lot this month. I love the bright green colour!

This NYC City Proof Twistable Intense Lip Color is great. I have it in the colour Riverside Rose which looks quite natural on my lips. I think I'm going to have to make this one permanent in my make-up bag.

I have been wearing Jimmy Choo Illicit Flower a lot this month. It is a great, elegant floral fragrance. It is definitely worth a try if you haven't already checked it out.

My MUA lipstick in shade 2 has been another lip product I have been loving this month and it has already been upgraded to my make-up bag. It is a bit darker and more bold than the NYC lip colour but I think it looks lovely on.

I have been wearing my Avon Nailwear Pro+ nail polish in shade Barely There this month and I love it. It lasts impressively well. I also have this colour as a gel finish polish, but this one seems to be just as good!

I love Clarins Double Serum. I have raved about it in the past. It improves the appearance of my skin immediately. My skin looks hydrated and radiant after using it.

Ghost Moonlight is another fragrance I have worn a lot this month. It is a sweet and creamy but it has a darkness to it as well.

Travel Essentials

April always seems to be the time people start jetting off for their first holiday of the year.

I am going on my travels tomorrow and thought I would share some of the things I am taking with me. I am trying to travel light, but there are a lot of essentials I wouldn't be without.

I don't want to be carrying round a bulky bottle of perfume so I am taking this River Island London eau de toilette rollerball as my fragrance.

I am taking my Tangle Teezer as it is a compact hair brush and it has a lid so that dirt doesn't get caught in it.

I have a monopod selfie stick which is great for taking selfies or it can be used as a monopod which can help to make video footage smoother.

I am taking a lipstick case with a mirror in it and I usually put a few loose cotton buds inside as I don't want to take the whole box of cotton buds but I don't want to carry them loose in my make-up bag as they can pick up dust or dirt.

I always seem to get dry lips when I travel so I have this Avon pink jasmine lip balm to take with me.

I opt for a rollerball deodorant as most spray deodorants are more than 50ml which I believe is the largest amount of liquid you can take on a plane in your hand luggage.

I also have my Clinique wrinkle correcting eye cream which I am taking with me as I like to look after my skin while I am travelling.

I will also be getting some sun screen when I get there. I haven't got any that is under 50ml and I am not taking a case.
