This Week I'm Loving... #17

This was meant to be up yesterday so I am super sorry that it is late! But like they say... better late than never right?

Eat Natural Bars

You may have seen on twitter that last week I started a 6 week chocolate ban. Yes - I am insane, but until June 1st I will be eating NO form of chocolate at all. The first week has been a little painful but I've managed to get through it okay and I've found alternatives to hit that sugar craving just as much as a cheeky Kit-Kat. Eat Natural bars are SO yummy, my favourite has to be the yogurt coated blueberry and cashew bar, they are so, so good.... I just wish they were cheaper!

Sugar Crush Body Spray

This has to be my purchase of the week! I love the Sugar Crush scent and having a body spray on had 24/7 has been awesome, both me and my home smell sweet and zesty, perfect for Summer! (Here's the post I did a few days ago...)

Trouble - Iggy Azalea & Jennifer Hudson

TUNEEEEE! I love Iggy and Jennifer's voice is amazing so this song has me smiling everytime I hear it.... especially when James Cordon is singing it - please tell me you've seen that video?

Disney Tsum Tsum's

Having these delivered to me last week was the highlight of my week! They are so adorable... keep your eyes peeled as I'm sure they will be featured again, you know how much I love Disney!

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation

I thought I'd feature my everyday foundation this week! I've used this for the last 18months or so I'd say. I remember picking it up just after I had starting blogging after seeing lots of reviews and recommendations and immediately I fell in love, said goodbye to L'oreal's True Match and swapped over to this as my daily base.

 I cannot tell you how much bottles I've been through since then but this week I finished off yet another and made another repurchase. If you love a good coverage with a slight glow this is the stuff to try - plus it's less than £10!

Armani Si Perfume

This one is a bit of a cheeky one.... I don't actually own it... but I have been wearing it daily! 'How?' you might ask... well, I work with perfume so having a little spritz is a perk of the job, obvs! I LOVE this scent, it is so strong just one spray can last hours and hours, hands down my perfume pick of the week.

Revenge Season 4

Okay, I know you are all fed up of me talking about bloody Revenge! I have become pretty much obsessed this month. Sad as it is to admit but I have literally watched... 86 episodes this month. 86. ..... Eighty Six. Wow - that's kind of embarrassing to admit. I am totally upto date now, minus this week's episode which I am waiting to be uploaded. Not long until season 4 will be over and I won't know what to do with my life.

Tesco Damson & Pomegranate Candle

Candles are a right weakness of mine and I think I've talked about this one before either on here on on my YouTube channel. I love this scent and it is a total bargain, if you are in Tesco look out for it! 

the Balm Mary-Lou Manizer

Highlighter of the week has to be my Mary-Lou! I love popping this on my cheek bones, forehead and down the centre of my nose for a gorgeous dewy look. This brand is one that I really want to try more of this year.

theBalm Mary Lou Manizer Review

theBalm is a brand that I have admired from a distance for so long now, I have no idea why it has taken me this long to even try one of their products!
The packaging and naming of their products has always been something that has caught my eye when browsing sites such as Asos and Feel Unique and along with the fairly reasonable pricing they seem to have got their marketing on point.

I was extremely excited when theBalm recently contacted me and asked if I want to try out a few of their best selling products - of course I leaped at the chance (who wouldn't) and have been in awe of their awesomeness ever since!

theBalm Mary Lou Manizer*

I am such a highlight lover. For years now I have been constantly buying and looking for products to give my skin that radiant look that celebritys seem to rock with ease!

The Mary Lou Manizer (told you the names were genius) is a gorgeous pearly powder highlight which comes in a cute little compact with a handy mirror.

 I have been using this both under and over the top of my foundation to create a pretty honey hued glow for both everyday looks and my full-face "going out" make-up!

My favourite places to put it is on the apples on my cheeks sweeping up towards my temples, down the center of my nose and under my eyebrows!

Giving my skin a slight shimmer and dewy radiant glow this powder is definitely perfect for anyone's complexion, it gives the skin a softer and younger and it has gone straight into my everyday make-up bag to hang out with my other favourite highlighters!

This 8.5g compact is £16 - a middle of the road price overall I'd say but the quality in both product and packaging is much better than anything you'd get on the high street and I can tell this is going to be a product that lasts and lasrs!

If you are looking for a new highlighter or maybe thinking about treating someone for their birthday or Christmas I highly recommend this one! It isn't too OTT and you can build it up so easily - top marks to thebalm babes!

What are your favourite highlighters? Would you like to see my top picks for highlighters?
