Favourites
So I haven't done a
monthly favourites or a general blog post in a while due to being crazy busy
with my HNC course and then just wanting a break from it all. So now I’m
back. I’ve finished with the course and looking for work (o the joys).
So here is some of the things I have been loving over the last couple of
months.
Cinema:
Magic
Mike XXL
So I went to see
the new Magic Mike XXL with my best friend and her mum, I have the first one
on DVD and it’s not my favourite film, it jumps around too much it quiet dark
and is hard to understand where as the new film is light hearted, fun,
hilarious and not bad on the eyes it is so much better than the first. And yes
ladies stripper convention exist in the beautiful US of A twice a year…. Think I
know where my next girly holiday will be.
Minions
When I went to go
see minions with my papa and step mom we were the oldest child and parent combo
their but I’m fine with that as for Despicable Me 2 as me and my papa were also
the oldest parent child combo again. I feel this movie was hyped up way too
much, don’t get me wrong I really enjoyed it but I left feeling that I expected
more, and I probably buy the DVD and watch it again. Saying that it did show a
trailer for a new film for 2016 called The Secret Life of Pets which looks
hilarious, it also showed the Inside Out trailer which I shall hopefully be
seeing.
Spy
Before seeing Spy I
was in two minds it was either going to be amazing or not worth the ticket
prices, but I’m glad to say it was amazing Melissa McCarthy is one of my
favourites actresses, she is as always funny and witty and makes the film. It’s
a good Sunday film to chill and is an easy watch.
One film I haven’t
seen yet is Jurassic World and I am desperate to see it, it was supposed to be seen
by now but Magic Mike XXL and other things got in the way. But I’m still fingers crossed I’ll see it
before it disappears from the cinema’s.
DVD:
Focus
Focus I didn’t see
at the cinema but I remember seeing it on the wall when I came out from
watching a film. To start with I thought it would be very much car chases and
beautiful women. (yup had no idea really what it was about but seen the interview
or will smith on Top Gear) but It surprised me I really enjoyed it and all its
little twists and ‘mind games’ and as from previous blogs you’ll see I vary in
what I watch but I am very girly but give it ago if not pass it on to a family
or a friend.
The
Wedding Ringer
The Wedding Ringer
is a light hearted comedy with a stereo typical ending if I do say so myself
but it is a funny, easy watch with some ‘OMG NO’ moments if you’ve seen it all I’ll
have to say is the ‘Dog’ moment and you now understand.
Taken
3
Taken 3 like most
people I thought they can’t possible make another one and it be good but I was
wrong it’s a good film and props to the person who had to advertise it and it’d
over do it. Has a good plot feels new but familiar with having same faces
includes very twisty and keeps you thinking.
Other films I bought
were Kingsman and 50 Shades of Grey but seen as I review them in another blog
post when I went to see them at the cinema I’ll leave them.
Beauty:
Maybelline
Lash Sensational Waterproof Mascara
With all mascara’s I
only ever buy waterproof due to I have the magic power of turning all normal
mascara’s in to panda eye syndrome, it’s a gift. I find this mascara really
good at lengthening and separating my lashes and so far no panda eyes so it
works for me.
Hair:
Toni
& Guy: Nourish Reconstruction Mask
This mask has
literally made my hair so soft and helped it so much I bought it in March and
ran out after 5 uses but it’s so worth the price and at the moment both
Superdrug and Boots have 2 for £9 on all Toni & Guy products. I’ve already
repurchased a couple of times and now have spares, I use it once a week and that’s
more than enough for me. It also smells rather good too.
Ogx
Renewing Moroccan Argan Oil extra penetrating
This oil along with
the mask has helped my hair get the shine and softens, I use this after every
wash. For an oil it doesn’t leave your hand feeling sticky which is a bonus
point in my book. But it’s been great for my hair and could recommend it more.
Lee
Stafford ARGANOIL from Morocco Anti Frizz serum Spray
This spray has been
a life saver from my very curly hair in the humid weather in the UK (what the
hell I was find with one extreme to the other but not this warm but not sunny malarkey)
It keeps me with relatively straighten hair yayyy (and just me having relatively
straight hair is a miracle for me)
Fragrance:
Ted
baker Pink body spray
Ted baker have
vamped up their new products giving them a very beautiful and expensive look
and have the pink and mint collection I prefer the smell on the pink collection
I find it more sweet smelling and I’m definitely a sweet person.
Soap
& Glory’s Sugar Crush Fragrance Mist
This is the first time
using the Sugar Crush collection I also bought the shower gel at the same time
and it smells so good the mist is sweet smelling but an adult sweet if that
makes sense it not to sickly it lovely and very elegant.
Emporio
Armani Diamonds Violet
I already had the original
perfume and I got an email from boots saying
this was brand new so I thought I’d treat myself to this and it smells so good
also a sweet scent but like the sugar crush not to sickly and very elegant. I’d
definitely buy again.
Everything else
Shower
Now for shower I just
going to meant one collection by The Body Shop with is the New Virgin Mojito
range which smells incredible and I’ve used to Shower Gel, Body Splash, Body
scrub and the Sorbet. It’s such an amazing smelling range that lasts with the
help of the body splash which can be put in a spray bottle and sprayed after
you’ve showered. It’s a nice refreshing fragrance and if you love the smell of lime
and mint it’s a must. Must say if you go into the shop to smell it if it’s the
sorbet or body butter rub into your skin then smell it as it can be over
powering straight from the bottle. The Body Shop have also done Gifts with this
collection with a cocktail shaker and an ice bucket this will be a fun gift for
a friend who loves cocktails but also smelling like mojitos.
Books
Books is a new section
but I’ve been reading The 100 book and I’m on the third and final book I watch
the tv series which is shown on E4 but it’s on a break waiting for the next
series so I thought I’d give the books ago and I’m really enjoying them there
is quite a bit which is different which I like then it’s not just repeating itself.
If you’re into Sci-Fi and hopeless romantic
in a space ship that losing oxygen and is trying to find out if earth is habitable
by sending 100 juvenile delinquencies then you’ll love it.
EE
And final something
I got free from EE. The Power Bar if you’re an EE customer you could of claimed
your own power bar in an EE store. Which charges your phone, iPod etc. it comes
with an android connecter but you need your apple connecter to connect you iPhone
or iPod. And the best thing is if you run out of battery when you’re out and
you’ve got no charge in you power bar simply pop into an EE store and swap it
for a fully charged one for FREE. Thanks EE.
