August Favourites!

Well it's the end of another month!

And a perfect opportunity to reflect and review on different things that I'm currently loving!

Each month I will bring you a list of my favourite things, from beauty, to blogs I'm following, books I've read, a coffee shop I may have visited!, a person even! It really could be anything!

So here goes my list of August favourites!

1. Lush products- In general, I mean the entire shop! I love lush! I have a love affair with the place at certain times of the year, around Christmas when they bring out gorgeous christmas items good enough to eat!, after a holiday, when I'm looking for beauty treats to soothe my sun parched skin when it's in need of an alo Vera bath bomb! Highly recommended!
And around my birthday when if I'm given any birthday money, it's a fabulous place for a birthday splurge! Loving Lush!

2. Lemon Grove. The book. I had seen this advertised in magazines over the summer, I read it from
Cover to cover in about 3 days! It was a book I struggled to put down!
Simply because the plot was so basic, you almost willed for something crazy to happen!
Of course you could almost tell what was going to happen from the outset but I felt compelled to still read it!
It was ok, not the best, but the reason I mentioned this in my favourites is simply because it was my easiest read in a while, of which I actually finished and finally, it was a fun, easy going, mummy friendly read!! And it was set in marjorca which I love!

3. Twinings Ginger and Lemon herbal tea.
Not being the biggest herbal tea fan, I decided to give this a go after feeling a little run down! It's actually very nice and subtle and warming when your full of cold or hayfever in my case! I'd recommend it!

4. Yankee candles- christmas selection!
I know I know! It's only September but give me a christmas cookie candle any time of the year! I could literally eat them! I found this selection in Asda, they were only £6 which for 6 Is not bad at all! And they smell divine!

5. Dolly bow Bow- You tube VLogger
I stumbled across Dolly bow bow quite recently, she's just had her first baby and she is just so sweet and lovely to watch, check her out on You tube.

6. Amanda start at the online stylist.
I have followed Amanda for some time and I adore her blog! It's a  fabulous mix of fashion, beauty, candles, coffee, her daughter and husband and lovely dog, it's easy reading and I just love receiving my daily email  with her latest blog update. Simply brilliant.

7. Johnson bedtime bath. My children love this and so do I! It smells very gentle, lavender is probably the best description, calming for children pre bed and it's very reasonably priced and normally on offer at most supermarkets.

8. Ghost adventures on Really! Now being a total wimp really where supernatural things are concerned I would never normally watch this sort of thing,but it's actually really quite addictive! Thursday night is ghost adventure night! Sad but true!

9. Ren ever calm day cream
Now this isn't cheap but after trying a few freebie samples, when M+S recently had a discount week on beauty I brought some. I have tried so many face creams over the years and this is so gentle, it was worth every penny!
I will try and do a full product review on this soon with more Information.

10. Benefit Gina perfume.
Now I didn't purchase this recently but I've used it a lot this month and I love it, it's quite strong, if you like Angel,I think you would like this!

And that my line up of August favourites! What were your August favourites?
