September Favourites

Saturday 4 October 2014

Did anyone else recoil in horror when they looked at the date and realised it’s now October? Tomorrow I will be 3 months away from turning 22 and it’s safe to say I’m dreading it. That’s an entirely different post in itself though so let’s just stick to my September Favourites in this one.


1. Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine in Pink Punch

Pink Punch has barely left my nails since I purchased it. I hadn’t bought a nail polish in a long, long time so as soon as I saw Pink Punch I immediately snapped it up. Barry M Gelly Hi-Shine nail polishes are incredible (although I usually have difficulty applying a second coat for some strange reason) and Pink Punch is no exception to that. It’s long lasting, looks amazing on and best of all, it was only £3.99.


2. Illamasqua ‘Virgin’ Lipstick

If you read my review on Illamasqua Virgin then you’ll know I wasn’t overly pleased with the fact it’s more of pink rather than the true red I believed it would be. Despite that though, I’ve been rocking it as often as I can. Although it’s not the shade I expected it is still a lovely colour and it’s a fairly long lasting lipstick. It is a shade I was missing from my collection so I think I can get over the fact it’s not the red I wanted.


3. Lush African Paradise

I think this may potentially become my favourite moisturiser of 2014. It’s helped clear up and keep my eczema at bay and those annoying dry patches of skin I usually get have completely disappeared. As mentioned in my review of African Paradise I’m not a fan of the smell but I can overlook that since it does such a great job at moisturising my skin. Another win for Lush.


4. Jeffrey Campbell Litas

My lovely Litas were abandoned throughout the summer mainly because Scotland actually warmed up but also because they were in dire need of being resoled. There was a day in July when I decided to wear them and as soon as I picked them up the little stubby bit on the heel (what is that even called?) fell right off. In all fairness it had been coming off since around December but I just never bothered to fix it properly. Now that my Litas have been resoled I’ve been wearing them non stop. I know they’re not everyone’s kind of shoe but they’re so comfortable, go with the majority of my wardrobe and they’re incredibly easy to walk in. Thank god I finally had them fixed.

5. The Return of NFL

Ok so technically the NFL came back in August but that was just the pre season, now it’s the regular season and I’m practically drooling at the mouth. Annoyingly we’re already a quarter of the way through the season but my adorable Chargers are sitting pretty at 3-1 and hopefully that will go up to 4-1 when we play the Jets tomorrow. I still maintain we shouldn’t have lost that Cardinals game but hey, we beat the Seahawk so screw it.

So there’s my September Favourites. I was actually planning on just writing about my new Chargers jersey but I didn’t want to come across as some obsessed lunatic. I think the fact I’ve just told you that outs me an obsessed lunatic anyway. You probably already knew that though so hey ho. Ok now I’m just rambling so I shall end this post right about…now.
