November Favourites ♥

It is time to share with you all, the many things I have been loving throughout this merry month of November! As per usual I have a few beauty bits and also a few random bits to share with you all, so let's start with the beauty bits shall we? 

Beauty

Batiste Fruity and Cheeky Cherry Dry Shampoo

Why, as a lazy student, I have only just started using dry shampoo I will never know. This stuff smells so delicious and cherry-like that I can't stop sniffing it. I love to use this on days where I have n0 time and don't want to look like I haven't showered in a few months. This works really well for me, but I do have a few friends with very thick hair who have said it pretty much does nothing, so it definitely depends on your hair type.

Tresseme Platinum Strength Shampoo & Conditioner

I am in love with this shampoo and conditioner, it makes my hair super soft and feel so healthy and strong. It has also helped control my frizz and makes my hair lovely and shiny!

Nars Sheer Glow Foundation in Gobi

I think for me, this is one of those 'love hate' products. Sometimes I'll use this and it looks flawless and other times it clings to dry patches and looks a bit on the yellow side. I have found that this works 10x better with a primer though and so lately, in conjunction with my Revlon Photo Ready Primer, it has been treating me well.

MAC Eye Shadow Quad - Grain, Cranberry, Embark & Sketch

I have two 15x MAC palettes that are full of beautiful shades that tend to get overlooked, so having a small quad that fits easily into a makeup bag allows me to rotate all my shadows, and make sure they all get a bit of loving. As it's winter, I thought I would show some of my more berry shades some love. These four shades are perfect for creating day and night looks and I do love a good smokey eye, so Sketch is a must. 

Random 

Film - The Hunger Games: Catching Fire

Catching Fire is my favourite book out of the three, so I was extremely worried that the film was going to screw it up, especially with that stupid handheld camera work that was over used in the first film. But alas, it was amazing and definitely did the book proud, not to mention Jennifer Lawrence did an amazing job as per usual. 

Music - Lorde, Pure Heroine

I wasn't too sure about this album at first, I'm not a massive fan of the song 'Royals' so I was a bit put off. But I have to say, there are some even better songs on the album. For instance, the song Buzzcut Season may be one of my favourite songs ever, yes I said it, EVER!

TV - Dr Who: 50th Anniversary Special

I only watched this because I'm completely in love with David Tennant. I'm also an old school Dr Who fan, my dad used to force me to watch it when I was a kid. It was definitely enjoyable and it was fun to see some of the older Doctors back, I'm looking at you Tom Baker! It was however written by Steven Moffat and was therefore completely over complicated.

Journal

And my final favourite of the month is my journal. I saw a blog post about keeping a journal to store all the quotes, stories, poems and song lyrics that make you happy and I instantly went out to Paperchase. I've been enjoying doodling and writing positive messages to myself and it has definitely given me the pick me up I needed. 

So that's all from me and my favourites this month, but let me know what things you've been loving down in the comments!
