February Favourites 2020

This post contains affiliate links.

I know February is a shorter month, but it feels like I was only writing my January favourites last week. After a slow January, I feel like February picked up, and I’ve had a great month; even if it has gone incredibly quickly. Anyway, let’s get into everything I was loving in February.

These are my February Favourites 2020.

ColourPop | Going Coconuts Eyeshadow Palette

If you’re a neutral lover, then you need this palette. It has everything you need if you like cool toned neutrals, and as it is a smaller palette it’s great for travelling. These shadows have amazing pigment and blend out easily. I find that the shimmers have a bit of fallout, but that doesn’t really bother me, as it’s easy to wipe away. My favourite shades are Palm Reader and Coco Crush.

ColourPop | Horse & Carriage Highlighter

This is the Cinderella highlighter from the recent Disney launch, and it is beautiful. It is described as a champagne pearl and it has warm undertones. The main thing I love about this highlighter is how pigmented it is, as it is blinding. However you can use a smaller amount to achieve a subtle finish, but even when it’s been built up it doesn’t show the skins texture.

Charlotte Tilbury | Bitch Perfect

I mentioned this in another blog post, so I won’t go into too much detail here. Bitch Perfect has been my go to in February, as it has such a comfortable formula. It’s a creamy lipstick, so the lasting power isn’t the best, but I don’t mind reapplying throughout the day. Nude lipsticks are my favourite and this one is a peachy nude, which I find very flattering.

Blackpool

For Christmas I bought tickets for Afternoon Tea in the Blackpool Tower Ballroom for my Nan. I know that she loves dancing and afternoon tea, so it was a no brainer to take her there. We went on the 15th, so it was a little stormy, but we spent majority of the day indoors so it wasn’t too bad. Even though my Nan isn’t well enough to be able to get up and dance she loved watching everybody else move around the floor.

Chester Zoo

At the end of February Jake and I went to Chester Zoo, and had an incredible time. I haven’t been to the zoo in years, so I forgot how much I enjoyed it. It’s such a good day out going to look at all of the animals; I would tell you my favourites, but it’s so hard to pick! We dropped on well with the weather too, as it didn’t rain which was nice.

Stylpro Brush Cleaner

Finally let’s finish with something practical. I hate cleaning my makeup brushes, I hate everything about it. That was until I received this for Christmas. It makes cleaning brushes so much easier, and I truly love it. I have the glitter set, which comes with everything you need and two makeup brushes. In order to use this you put your brush in one of the silicone collars, attach to the stylpro, put it in the water, turn it on and that’s it. I know; easy right? It’s simple to use, easy to do, and I don’t think I’ll ever wash my brushes another way.

There we have it! That was my February Favourites 2020.

What were you loving in February?

Thank you for reading!

    The lipstick and eyeshadow palette looks absolutely gorgeous and I need that makeup brush cleaner! I don’t clean mine anywhere near enough so to have that would be super handy!

    That colourpop palette reminds me a lot of the one from Zoeva that I used to own! I always see Chester Zoo on TV and really want to go there, so glad the bad weather held off for you!!

    Such lovely favourites! I love the look of that brush cleaner. I’ve seen it before and have always been interested by it. I hate cleaning my brushes and have been putting it off for way too long now that it’s disgusting how long it’s been. But this tool seems so helpful xx

Missing mornings like this✨ Current mood: Sitting Missing mornings like this✨

Current mood: Sitting by a pool in Greece sipping a freddo cappuccino😍

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?🍽️

🩵 Father’s Day at @draytonmanor 🩵 Yesterday we he 🩵 Father’s Day at @draytonmanor 🩵

Yesterday we headed to Drayton Manor for the first time, and we absolutely loved it! 🚂

The highlights:

🎢 We managed to hit all the rides we wanted.

⏱️ Queue times were super manageable—the longest we waited was 30 minutes, which is the absolute limit with a 1 and 3-year-old! 😂

🥵 It was too hot to make it to the zoo this time, but with animal-loving toddlers, we will definitely be back to check it out. 🐯

Have you been to Drayton Manor before? 

What’s your ultimate tip for taking toddlers to theme parks in the heat? 👇🏼
