July has now come to an end, and it’s been a month of ups and downs. Even though it’s been a sad month in some way, I’ve had some good times as well. Here’s 5 favourites from the month of July.

MAC paint pot - Painterly 2

MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in Painterly: I’m so glad I bought this paint pot. It’s the perfect base for any eye make-up look, but especially neutral ones. I’ve been wearing it non stop the past month.

e.l.f. Wet Gloss Lash & Brow Clear Mascara: As I mentioned here, I’d been looking for a clear brow gel and finally decided to get this one from e.l.f; and I’m glad I did. It keeps my eyebrows in place all day long and it’s so affordable.

Revlon balm stain - Lovesick

Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain (colour: 020 Lovesick): It’s not the first one of these bad boys you’ve seen in a favourites post (actually it’s the third), but I just love them. This hot pink one is my most worn lip product this month, so I had to feature it in this post.

Braided ponytail (hairstyle): This is the first hairstyle I’ve featured in a favourites post, but due to the warm weather this has been my go-to hairstyle. A braided ponytail is such a nice way of keeping your hair away from your face.

What would Audrey do 1

What Would Audrey Do? – Pamela Keogh: I usually don’t read much (I usually only read for my studies), but in the beginning of July I read this lovely book about one of my favourite actresses. If you’re a big fan of Miss Hepburn (like I am) I’m sure you’ll enjoy this book about every aspect of her life. I’m sure she can teach you a thing or two:)

5 favourites – May

Where did May go? I really can’t believe that May is already gone and that the first month of summer starts tomorrow. May was such a great month. Probably the best month of 2014 so far. I got to see Scouting for Girls live at a big party with two lovely ladies, I handed in my last assignment for this semester, I went home to Denmark to be a part of my youngest sister’s confirmation which was such a lovely day (outfit will be on the blog soon), I went to the McBusted concert in Nottingham and went on several other day trips around England, so I would say that May did me good. My stay here in England is soon coming to an end, and I’ll make a post about my stay here when I’m back in Denmark, but for now I’ll share with you 5 favourites from the month of May:)

Batiste Dry Shampoo Fresh Cool & Crisp: I usually don’t get very excited about hair products, but I do love dry shampoo and I’d been wanting to try out one of the Batiste ones for a while. As I wrote here, I wanted one with a fresh scent. I can’t describe what this one smells like, but it sure is a fresh scent and I think it works incredibly well too, so I’m a fan:)

Collection Lasting Perfection Ultimate Wear concealer (shade: Fair 1): This is actually not particularly a May favourite; it’s been an absolute favourite since I bought the first one (the bottom one in the picture) in March, but I thought I would mention it now since I bought a stock of this concealer. I love that it comes in a very fair shade, because it can be difficult to find a good concealer colour wise when you have rather fair skin. Other than that it just does the job of covering spots/blemishes and under eye darkness as well. As you can see the text wears off really quickly, but if that doesn’t bother you I would definitely recommend this concealer.

Revlon Colorburst Balm Stain (colour: 045 Romantic): I’ve been really into wearing red lips the past month or so, and this balm stain from Revlon has been my favourite shade (I’m wearing it here and here). And then let me just mention again how much I love these balm stains. If you’re a girl who loves lip products and you haven’t tried these, you’re missing out on something great. Just saying:)

GoodMythicalMorning-HappyBirthdayRhett100

Good Mythical Morning (Youtube channel): I watch a lot (emphasis on lot) of Youtube videos daily, and Good Mythical Morning has become a part of my daily routine:) I’d heard about Rhett and Link before and their main channel on Youtube, but it wasn’t until a stumbled upon GMM that I found out how hilarious these guys are. I’m still not convinced by their main channel, but I’m loving GMM and it definitely makes a great start to my day:)

McBusted concert: This probably doesn’t come as a surprise, but the McBusted concert I went to on May 20 was the highlight of my month! It was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me and it fulfilled all of my expectations and even more than that. It was a night that I’ll remember for the rest of my life:)
