Nevertheless, these have been getting me through the month.And a little over, as I'm well aware I'm slow with this (why change the habit of a lifetime, ey?)
So here are the Style Resolutions Monthly Favourites for February...and a bit of March
- Face Brush, Body Shop- £4
But turning 24 is also making me think about the future. And investing in my skin.
Like all bloggers, I've done a lot of research (code name for spending hours on youtube/ blogs) and while I can't yet afford a Clarisonic *one day, one day* I really think facial massage has it's benefits. As does double-cleansing. (FYI, this is based on no scientific fact. So we'll see how my skin's bearing up in 20 years).
This face brush has been my cleaning tool of the month. I did slightly break out after about the third use, but then I thought that might be the fact it's bringing all the sh*t from down below out, right? Maybe I'm just spotty, who knows.
I wouldnt suggest using this everyday, because it is quite 'scrubby'- get it out once or twice a week. And make sure you wash between uses.
And don't press down too hard. Furiously scrubbing does not a nice face make.
- Nail Polishes, Rimmel- Around £3.69
In fact, looking at the brightness of this colour again makes me want to just run right home and dive in to a pool of it.
I wont. Because that's solvent abuse. In the extreme.
This is Ready, Aim, Panit! by Rimmel
- Original Beauty Lotion, Jergens- £1.79
What I really like this is the smell- it's like cherries and marzipan.
Moisture-wise, I wouldn't say it's unbelievably drenching, but it does the job and it keeps you soft for the standard 24 hours.
- In Style magazine- £3.80 and Zest £3.70
The last two months I've picked up In Style and Zest and I have to say, I really enjoy both.
Zest, to be fair, was a conscious decision. I've decided this is the year of health (as well as style resolutions, of course) and I've gotten so many little tips and tricks from this.
Whenever I feel like reaching for the Cadbury's I have a little flick through this and it helps me get out the banana instead.
And by banana, I mean banana.
In Style, I randomly picked up because I was going on a long train journey and I'd natch already read every other one of my go-to mags- Cosmo, Company, Glamour et al.
Butagain, I really like this. Full of 'oh yea, I'd have never thought of styling it like that' moments. Also cuts out the 'does he love me, how to please a man' crap you sometimes have to endure in other titles.
Though it's just a shame everything costs like, £300.
