March Favourites 2017

March Favourites 2017

In my two years of blogging, I’ve never done a full year of monthly favourites and this year I’m trying to change that (which isn’t so good for those of you that don’t like these posts, but hey, at least there’s only nine more to go) March is the month that I finally went self hosted with my blog, which is exciting and feels like its been a long time coming.

These are my March Favourites 2017.

Urban Decay | Naked Palette

March Favourites 2017 | Urban Decay Naked Palette

I include this in a lot of favourites, and that’s simply because it’s my go to palette. This is the first high-end palette that I fell in love with, and it still holds a special place in my heart. I recommend this palette to everyone, as you can create a number of stunning looks. My favourite shades are: Sidecar, Half Baked and Smog.

Maybelline | Colour Tattoo On and On Bronze

Colour Tattoo on and on bronze

This is another old favourite, but just recently I have been really struggling with eye shadow, as no matter what I do it never lasts. It lasts slightly better with this base. I apply this with a brush, but you can use your finger too. Like the name would suggest this is a pretty Bronze colour, that can be blended out or packed on for an intense colour.

Too Faced | Hangover Primer

Too Faced Hangover Primer

I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned this primer on my blog before, but I love it. This primer is brilliant for those with dry skin, as it includes lots of hydrating qualities including coconut water. If you don’t like a dewy  finish, then you may not like this, as the hydrating qualities gives your foundation that glowing finish. I also love how this has a pump, as it makes it so easy to use, and it lasts for ages.

NYX | Beauty School Dropout 101 in Nude

March Favourites 2017 | NYX palette

I’ve not heard anyone talk about this palette, and after looking for it online I can’t seem to find it anywhere; which is a little strange.  I got mine from ASOS, but it isn’t there anymore.  There are six colours in this palette; two mattes and four shimmers. I love the brown, copper and gold shadows in this palette. I find they last really well and build really nicely.

The Sims 4

The sims 4

I love the Sims, but I often go through times of being obsessed and not really caring about it. March was a time of sims all day, everyday. I love the addition of toddlers, but I still prefer The Sims 2, as I used to love that version, and I really hope it comes to Origin soon.

The Co-Operative Irresistible Triple Chocolate Cookies

March Favourites 2017 | Co Op Cookies

I think this might be the first food that I’ve featured in a favourites post, but these are the best cookies that I’ve had. Yes, I know they aren’t good for you, but sometimes you need a break with a triple chocolate cookie, or five.

Those were my March Favourites 2017.

Thank you for reading!

    The naked palettes are my all time favourites, the Naked 2 is my everyday go-to. I’ve never seen that NYX palette before but the shades are gorgeous!

      They’re so good aren’t they? The Naked 2 has some really pretty colours! I’m not sure why it’s so hard to get a hold of now, I got it late last year and now it seems to have disappeared!xx

    I love the colours of your naked palette! I’ve never used it so far but you really made me curious. I think I would go for Sin, Sidecar or Half Baked. xx Simone from Switzerland

      It’s such a pretty palette, the quality is there because it’s Urban Decay and the colours work so well together! Those three are stunning!xx

      The original Naked palette is stunning! I know it’s called Bad to the Bronze in other countries instead of On and On Bronze, which is just confusing xx

    I love playing The Sims! I may be nearly 23 but you’re never too old for that game haha. I love the On & On Bronze Colour Tattoo, such a good go-to shade.

    I love the Sims! I’ve played it since it came out and I was 10 haha. I also go through phases of forgetting about it and complete obsession, over the weekend I played it for hours.

      All of the Sims have been great haven’t they?! I remember the original so well! That’s the only problem with playing, when you get into it you can be on it for hours!xx

Not only is there ice cream, they have: cows, ponies, and a donkey to say hello to🐮

We didn’t stop for food this time, but we’ve made a mental note to come back as everything looked so good!😋

Both kids adore @tractorteduk so I knew this would be a hit, and they spent ages playing!💚

What’s your go to ice cream flavour? This time I went for Raspberry Ripple and White Chocolate M&M’s and it was 10/10😋

Don’t get me wrong, I had a full makeup bag just to the side, but these were always out😂

From the iconic @soldejaneiro 62, which always reminds me of holiday to my much loved @charlottetilbury palette 😍

Saying that the @maybelline foundation is new to me and I have been really enjoying it! It has SPF 20 and is great for dry skin✨

What always makes it into your holiday makeup bag?🩵🌺

Also I know the lighting isn’t the best, but we’re going with it😂

Actual reality: Staring at my kettle in the UK wishing it could do magic tricks😭

Is it actually worth investing in a proper coffee machine? And more importantly, which one should I get?

I actually only like iced coffee, so I’m not sure if a machine is for me, but there’s got to be a way… right?😭😂

☀️ June ☀️ Spent the first half of the month melt ☀️ June ☀️

Spent the first half of the month melting on a beautiful beach on holiday, and the second half melting in my own house🫠 

Swipe to see how hot it was in Ella’s room, just in time for bedtime🙃

Isn’t the heatwave supposed to be coming back too? Send prayers (and fans)😂 How did you survive the  heat?!

1. Take off✈️
2. Couldn’t ask for anything more❤️
3.🐚🌺
4.❤️
5. I may have piled my flatbread a little too high😅
6. Father’s Day at @draytonmanor 🎢
7. There’s always time for a farm trip🐴
8. Our first cinema trip🎬
9. We’re big Toy Story fans in this house🤠
10. It’s been Caesar salad weather🥵
11. And we were able to sneak in a date afternoon🥰
12. An ice cream run was a must🍦
13. Especially as Noah was very brave during his preschool jabs🥺
14. I do not miss doing bedtime at this temperature🥵
Real talk family dinner review!🤍 (Gifted/ invite) Real talk family dinner review!🤍
(Gifted/ invite)

We treated the kids to a meal out at weathervanemeirpark this weekend, and the family vibes were lovely. One of the biggest wins was that the staff brought over colouring pages and crayons for both kids without us even having to ask. Which is a lifesaver with two toddlers🥵

Noah and Ella were completely won over by the food. Noah cleared his plate of sausage, chips, and beans, and Ella was living her best life with pasta, corn on the cob, and chips (a toddler dream combo, let’s be real😂)

As for the adults, Jake loved The Big Melt burger. I ordered the Katsu Curry Feast, and we did have a little hiccup where my chicken looked a little pink, but I always judge a place by how they handle mistakes. The staff were absolutely brilliant, replaced it immediately, and even brought over a complimentary drink to apologise. Great customer service honestly makes all the difference.🫶🏻

It’s a super welcoming, stress free spot if you’re looking for somewhere to take the kids this weekend. 

Swipe to the very end to see Ella making sure no ice cream got left behind😂

What’s your ultimate go to meal when you eat out with the family?🍽️
