April Favourites

By Hellofreckles @tashajsteel
See what I've been loving this month!
It seems by some coincidence everything I've been loving in April has been pink or in pink packaging. On Wednesdays we wear pink, springs to mind...

Soap and Glory's Sugar Crush range gets mixed reviews. Personally, I love it, the sweet scent smells good enough to eat and I like using the body buttercream after a shower following on from the body wash. The sweet lime scent is just so fresh and citrusy, I love it - did I mention that already?

Models Own 'Bubblegum' was the first nail varnish I bought from the brand. If I remember correctly, it came in a beauty box last summer from Selfridges. At first I thought it was way too bright for me, but I actually love how it gives outfits a pop of color and although it's bright neon pink, it doesn't wash out my (already very) pale skin tone. I've actually just picked up a new Models Own nail varnish in Boots, oh you 3 for 2 how you tempt me!


The final two products I've found myself using together almost everyday. L'Oréal Collection Privée Color Riche lipsticks are all nudes named after a celebrity that would suit that shade. The idea is that you'll be able to get a nude lipstick to suit you by picking the celebrity that has a similar skin tone to you. I've got 'Julianne's Nude' which is a great nude pink for me as she's fair skinned with freckles (just like me) and I like to put the L'Oréal L'Extraordinaire by Color Riche liquid lipstick in 'Rose Melody' on top to add a glossy rose sheen which lasts for hours. They've been compared to YSL glossy stains and at a fraction of the price, they're amazing. I'm already tempted to swatch more next time I visit Boots!
