3 months of 2017 have passed so far, and I must admit this is the hardest post for me to write so far this year. This past month hasn't particularly been great for me, as college has been difficult and I was very ill at one point. So I haven't been using makeup that much this past month, and due to my exams approaching I have spent most of my time studying rather than doing much else. But I've managed to find a few things for both the beauty and non-beauty sections just to write this post for you all.
Let's start with the beauty favourites.
My first favourite of this month is something I was seriously surprised to love (despite its massive price tag). It is the BareMinerals Original Foundation in the shade 'Light'. I've heard great things about this foundation before, and in a way I expected it to be good as it costs over £25, but once I realised it was a powder foundation, I was unsure. I have never used a powder foundation before so I was unsure about how they actually worked and if it would work for me. It doesn't offer amazing coverage but it does feel very light on my skin, which is perfect for college as it doesn't make my face feel greasy, lasts all day and doesn't crease. Even though it costs a lot of money, I would seriously continue to use it a lot in the future.
The next beauty item on my list this month is the Bourjois bronzer that is shaped like chocolate. I mentioned this last month where I mentioned that this was a product I hardly ever used. Well, I started using it every time since then and it reminded me of how amazing it was. It's a light lighter than a lot of the other bronzers I have ever used in my life, giving me a gentle glow rather than a harsh tan (I have found that darker bronzers are more likely to oxidise). I prefer this for my bronzers as, being a very pale person, I don't want the bronzer to look too harsh on my skin but I do want to darker it slightly. And another great thing is that it smells amazing too - just like chocolate!
The final beauty item of this post is the I Heart Makeup Unicorns Heart Highlighter, which I have been so desperate to own this, but it was always sold out on Superdrug. But then I found it on the brands website and ordered it straight away. This has become my favourite highlighter ever, as it is very pigmented, easy to blend and gives a beautiful glow. It's a rainbow highlighter which is great as you have a choice of just one colour or mixing them all for the out of this world glow.
Now onto the non-beauty items.
I have loved watching 'The Big Bang Theory' on Netflix recently, especially putting it on in the background whilst I have been studying. I have watched every episode of this show before (when I was very ill with tonsillitis for the first time last year) but it's so great that I will constantly watch it over and over. I study maths at A Level now and studied Biology at A Level a couple of years ago so there are some jokes within it that I do understand, but there are some that I don't understand and have to get my very nerdy science-y brother to explain to me! But I would recommend it to anyone looking for a very entertaining show to watch.
Another thing that I have been interested in this month is actually a very controversial subject, I've been interested in this before, but recently I have been looking into Astrology a lot. I know a lot of people don't believe in astrology but I always find it fascinating, such as the idea that your star sign can affect your personality. It's something that I would love to study in further depth in the future.
The final thing in this post is the SacconeJoly family and their Youtube channel. I heard about them a couple of years ago but only just started watching their vlogs within the past few months. And they're just the sort of family that you get invested in, as on camera they seem like the perfect family. It is the highlight of my day to watch their usual 15 minute vlogs. I also wanted to offer a massive congratulations to them on the birth of their new baby girl!
What have you all been loving this month? I'm hoping that the favourites post for next month is easier and better to write/read next month, as I am hoping this next month is going to be slightly more exciting (due to the Easter holidays),
I will be back on Wednesday with another post for you all.
I hope you all liked this post. If you did, be sure to subscribe/follow, comment and share with friends.
Byeee!!!
