July Favourites

Yet again I can't believe another month has just flew by without me even noticing. I'm going to get straight into it and start.
I think each month I may go a bit overboard when it comes to trying new products. I just can't resist buying them even if it's a product I've used before but just in a different fragrance.
Ogx Kukui Oil Shampoo and Conditioner


I've previously used the Coconut Milk one for a while and loved that so much that I wanted to try out another one from the same range. The Kukui Oil one is designed to combat frizz and to hydrate your hair. I'm that person who if it rains slightly or is humid my hair seems to just go frizzy and get much bigger. This works perfectly, especially using the shampoo and conditioner in conjunction with each other. I have even been able to use this and dry my hair without straightening it. I just smooths and gives your hair that natural shine.
Both of these are £6.99 each and can be bought from most highstreet beauty stores (Boots/Superdrug) and I think some supermarkets sell this too.

The Body Shop Body Sorbets


Anyone who reads my blog frequently will know that I love all things The Body Shop especially their body butters. Now that it's summer I wanted something lighter to put on that wouldn't stick to my clothes and would absorb quite fast. So I went and got myself a body sorbet. These have the consistency of a really think lotion but not as thick as a body butter and are quite transparent. They are really light and do absorb so fast which makes it easier to moisturise before going out. They are available in quite a few fragrances.

£8.00 from The Body Shop

No7 Beautiful Skin Cleaning Water


I always swore by the Garnier Micellar Water for cleansing/removing makeup. Recently I have a £5.00 off No7 voucher so thought I'd use this to my advantage and try something new. I absolutely love this product. It's great at removing make up and it even works on sensitive skin. It doesn't have a fragrance that is strong, it's more of just a fresh feeling. I just find that my skin feels a lot more softer and fresher after using this each morning and night. 

£9.50 from Boots

No7 Perfect Nails Top Coat


Trying to find the perfect topcoat for my nails was nearly becoming an impossible task. each one I tried either bubbled, peeled or just didn't give off that salon shine. The No7 Top Coat just does everything I need it to. It drys really fast and gives that shine that I want without any impurities. I am always going to have this in my nail varnish draw as it is a necessity and I won't be using any other.

£6.00 from Boots

The Body Shop HoneyMania Hand Cream


I love the HoneyMania fragrance at The Body Shop so couldn't resist the hand cream. I tend to get quite dry hands and find that some hand creams can sting or irritate my skin. This one sinks in perfectly and I have no irritation from it at all. I have noticed the difference too over the fast few weeks that my hands don't feel as dry anymore and they smell so yummy.

£5.00 from The Body Shop

Diesel Loverdose Tattoo Fragrance


I am a repeat buyer of the original Diesel Loverdose and I have tried this one before but recently I went into Boots and they had a third off the original price. I've just checked and it still has a third off so if you want one now would be the best time (Boot Website) When I sprayed it I realised how much I actually like this one maybe even more than the original. The fragrance just makes me feel more confident and it really does last all day. It's definitely a perfume for people who don't like that sort of sweet/floral scent as this is much more sexy and strong. I've just seen that they do a Loverdose Red, I have never even heard of that one, is it new? 

£42.00 for 50ml from Boots

River Island Brown Suede Satchel


River Island is possibly my favourite high street shop, I especially love their bags. I think altogether I've had 6 different colour satchels but when I saw this one I fell in love. It's the same size, build etc of their standard satchels but it's got suede effect which I think is perfect for the Autumnal weather and even winter with a parka jacket and boots. This also can be tuned into a backpack but I think I'll just use it as a satchel.

£30.00 from River Island.

 So that's my July favourites I think by the time this goes up we'll already be a third through August! What have you been loving this month? Have you tried any of the above and what do you think?

 Thank you for reading!
