Johnson's Baby Skincare Wipes, Tresemme 24 Hour Body Shampoo, Vichy Normaderm Moisturiser, Natural Collection Mango and Papaya Body Spray, Lush Bubblegum Lipscrub, 17 Wild Curls Mascara, Natural Collection Lip Liner in Almond, Bare Minerals High Shine Colour in Glisten, MAC Lipstick in Kinda Sexy, Rimmel Stay Matte Powder, Accessorize Merged Blusher in Pretty Pink, MAC Sheertone Blush in Pink Swoon.

I'm currently rediscovering Johnson's Baby Wipes after finding them on offer in Boots for just £1. They remove eye make up wonderfully and leave my skin feeling soft and soothed, they also smell beautiful - but remember, these aren't a substitute for cleanser! I love Tresemme hair care, it's my favourite and this shampoo never fails to impress me. My thin, flat hair always looks volumised after this has been used. I have a love/hate relationship with Vichy Normaderm moisturiser, some months I love it, others I hate it. But this month it's been a firm favourite of mine as it moisturises my skin but also controls shine and eliminates my pores. The Natural Collection body spray is something that I use every day - I've even had compliments on the way I smell. For just £1.99 it's a definite must have. And even if you don't like Mango and Papaya, they do a variety of different smells.

As for make up, Lush's Bubblegum lip scrub works wonders on my lips and leaves them feeling soft and ready for lipstick (especially as I've been wearing matte lipstick all month)! It also tastes yummy. I'm loving 17's Wild Curl mascara as it lengthens, defines, volumises and also curls my lashes, it's great for every day! Rimmel's Stay Matte powder is my all time favourite as it really does leave my skin completely matte and shine free - which is great for my horribly oily skin.

L-R Natural Collection Lip Liner in Almond, Bare Minerals High Shine Colour in Glisten, MAC Lipstick in Kinda Sexy, MAC Sheertone Blush in Pink Swoon, Accessorize Merged Blusher in Pretty Pink.

I've never owned a lip liner and I thought that it was about time that I did. So I decided to buy a Natural Collection one as it only cost me £1.99. It's a bit hard and not very nice to work with but it's practically the same colour as my lips and makes lipstick easier to apply and also lasts longer. I'm loving Bare Minerals eyeshadow in my crease for when I go out at night time, it's really vibrant and shiny and looks beautiful. Of course, MAC's Kinda Sexy lipstick is my all time favourite at the moment, it's great for day night and night time - so versatile. I love it! As for these two blushes, they pair very well together and can be built up depending on when they're being used!
