My April Favourites

Hello Internet!

Sorry I have posted in a while but I'm back! In this post I'm going to talk about my favourite must have items for April.

My Favourite Makeup products

The witch naturally clear BB cream is a product I have been using for a while now. It is a really great cream that you can use under foundation as a natural base layer. It is skin coloured (this one is in pale for my colour) and is really good at covering up spots for a natural look. It is about £6.99 and can be bought from your local super market such as sainsburys.
It works really well at covering spots and reducing redness. I never go anywhere without it. 



The benefit 'They're Real!' mascara is a product I have only recently been introduced to. I got a freebie at The Clothes Show Live 2013 and my friend told me it is a brilliant mascara. I agree. It is anti-lumping which is always a good quality for a mascara to have, unless that's what you like. When you put in on it lengthens you eye lashes beautifully and makes them look really elegant. This size is really nice to pop in your pocket and carry everywhere with you! They are about £10 from benefit and the full sizes are £19.50.


Okay so let me just say I know how hard it is to find good makeup wipes! I have really sensitive skin and most makeup wipes burn on my face. These ones are for people with sensitive skin and remove all makeup including mascara and liner. They are so soft on your skin, like a soft, fluffy puppy on your face! They are £1.50 in superdrug.




My Chilling Favourites
I can't go without my doggy slippers. They are my world. They are so soft and so cute. I have had them for 5 years and they are still amazing! I don't now if you can buy these style anywhere. I got mine from an online shop called Aroma Home. I can just slip into them after a long day with a cup of tea and chill. Look at them! They are such cuties woof woof!!




I use this sanctuary spa bubble bath all the time. It foams up really well and smells of oranges. It is absolutely lush. I love relaxing with a few non-scented candles, just swirling the bubbles around  in the bath! I am really into the whole sanctuary spa bath stuff line at the moment, they smell so nice!



My Favourite Accessory
I love collars and collar necklaces, I don't know why but I think they are really stylish. I think I might be a little behind on trends but meh it's what I like. I can wear this with any outfit that involves a circular neck and it looks amazing. It has little silver rose patterns which I love even more!



 My Favourite Book
My mum bought me this book for my birthday and I haven't had time to read it. I have now and it is amazing. It is similar to The City Of Bones and it is captivating. This is the second book in the trilogy of The Mortal Instruments, it has some of the characters from the City of Bones series. I love this book it is really interesting and has different plot twists to keep you entertained and on edge all the way through.

 My Favourite Film
This film is amazing. It is the 2nd Hobbit film called The Desolation of Smaug and has Martin Freeman as Bilbo and Benedict Cumberbatch as Smaug the Dragon. It is a really good film and is on DVD for about £10.99. I love this film and you guys should definitely watch them. I was going to say Frozen was my favourite but since that was out in March I thought I'd do one out this month.

So thats it for this post. If you liked this post, want any more information or have a suggestion for another post leave a comment, share this or tweet me: @LizzieJeffs or @Youtuberstyle

Review: Divergent Series

Divergent series

Recently I have been reading the Divergent series, recommended to me by a friend. I instantly fell in love with these books from the first page. These are a trilogy of books about a city organised by a faction system.

I absolutely love these books because they are full of action, romance and cliff hangers. Now I know that a lot of books are alright throughout the middle and have a rubbish ending but these are not like that. They hold your interest on every page right up to the last one. The endings are carefully planned to lead each book onto the other and to come to a thrilling conclusion.

Divergent and Insurgent are amazing throughout. I could find no fault! However I must say that the third one is a little slow through the middle section but the ending is superb.

I am not going to give you the full story but it is about a girl called Tris who is divergent. It follows her experience as being a divergent and ends with a dramatic conclusion. Obviously I am not going to tell you what happens because that would ruin the story for you! However I am going to tell you to go and by these books now! Just go online and buy it, download it, order it I don't mind but you have to read this book.

I think it might be out on film in the cinemas as well. That is a must see too. Shailene Woodley and Theo James, I have heard, are amazing in this film. (There have been so many fan accounts made over the past few months for Theo James!!! People really love him!)

So yeah! Buy the books. You have to read them.
