It's been quite so time since I did a favourites on both my blog & youtube channel.
However May has been a great month, so why not!
I have a variety of different items from home to fitness clothing.
Benefit Dream Screen
I'm sure I've favourited this item before, however I do love it! It is the first facial sun cream I have ever found that isn't super oily, in fact it's oil free. This makes it perfect for everyday and perfect for underneath make up.
Soap & Glory Heel Genius
I'm not really one for feet, but we all like to have nice soft ones. This foot cream is super moisturising & has a really refreshing peppermint scent. It's seriously saved my feet this month!
NYX Intense Butter Gloss & Matte Lip Cream
These are my first NYX lip products & I have to say.. where have they been all my life?!?
I love the formula & scent of these. My overall favourite is the matte lip cream as I have been loving a matte lip recently. However I think they're both going to be in my make up bag permanently.
Oral B 3D White Brilliance Toothpaste
I've been wanting a whitening toothpaste that actually works for years & I think I've finally found it! You can actually see all the crap & discolouration in the sink when you use this toothpaste, which is reassuring. I have also noticed a visible difference in colour. It's nothing too dramatic but I can see that it's actually working.
Wood Wick Candle
You guys know me, I love a good candle. Recently I discovered wood wick candles, which are quite a simple yet amazing concept. Every candle has a wooden wick, which means it crackles whilst it burns. It is honestly the most relaxing sound ever! The candles also burn really evenly & are highly scented. The perfect candle really!
Gymversus Leggings
It's so hard to find good quality gym leggings, that don't go see-through, especially when you spend a lot of time squatting! However I have finally found some that are worth some hype. These leggings are by a company called Gymversus & they are just amazing quality, as well as really nice designs.
If you're serious about the gym I would definitely recommend them!
I am not one for feet as a whole, however sometimes you do need to give them some TLC.
So when it comes to pampering my feet I like to use a foot cream. Especially when it's that seasonal transition my feet can get dry & feel a little gross.
My current favourite foot cream is this one by Soap & Glory called Heel Genius.
The reason I really like this foot cream is because it is really thick & moisturising on the feet. Weirdly enough though it sinks into the skin really quickly, considering how thick it is. Which for me is a must in foot creams, because lets face it who's got time to run around with sticky naked feet (not me)!
So if you're in a bit of a rush & need to put your socks straight on, go for it.
There are some things I'm not that keen on with this product though. The first is the scent, it has a very strong peppermint smell. I'm really not a peppermint fan, so if they could bring out one with a different scent that would be ideal!
I also find the gel like texture of the cream gross to touch, odd I know. I just have to shudder & get over it, as the product moisturises too well to pass on.
It's finally summertime here in the UK, so that means it's time to get those feet out, wear so cute sandals & colourful nail polish.
However as we all know it's not quite that simple.
So here's how I get my feet summer ready.
1. Removing any old nail polish
This is a must. You need to get off any old or chipped polish that you have on your toes. I like to use cotton rounds & Cutex Moisture Guard nail polish remover. This nail polish remover is great for dry nails.
2. Trim your toenails
This is another must. Simply because nails that are too long & unkept aren't very nice. Also if you don't trim your toenails they can start to grow under the skin, which is painful!
3. Buff feet
Now it's time to buff off any excess or dry skin on your feet. There are various tools you can use to do this, I just use a manual Scholl one (as pictured above).
4. Apply foot cream
Now that your feet are all smooth it's time to apply some foot cream. Sandal weather means the skin on your feet is very exposed and can get very dry. By applying a foot cream regularly you won't need to spend as much time buffing your feet next time round. The foot cream I'm currently loving is Heel Genius by Soap & Glory.
5. Apply fresh nail polish
This is optional. However I always feel like toenails look 100% better when they're painted. Especially if you're getting them out a lot.
