October Favourites

Hey everyone! October has been a pretty busy month for me, which is why I haven't posted anything in while. But this post resumes my blogging habits, and I will hopefully start writing a lot more often from now on!

There are some amazing things featured here, all of which have actually become some of my all time favourites, so I highly recommend you take the time to try every one of them if you get the chance!

Victoria's Secret Eau So Sexy

Have you ever smelt a perfume and thought 'I want to smell like this every single day, all of the time, forever'? Well, that's exactly how I felt the moment I smelt this fragrance when I visited Victoria's Secret in New York. 

It is the sweetest and fruitiest scent I have ever smelt, not  sickly or overpowering in the slightest. Its smell is super fresh and it is actually described as a combination of bergamot, apples, and Chantilly cream- perfection in a bottle!

I'm really picky when it comes to perfumes, and I tend to go off the majority after a few uses (which has made me waste a lot of money over the past few years). But Eau So Sexy is one of the only perfumes that I keep spraying over and over again, so fingers crossed I have finally found the right scent for me.

MAC Strobe Cream

I know that a lot of people have been going crazy over this product lately. You might be sick of hearing about it but, I'm really sorry, I just had to include it in my October favourites!

Basically, you apply a small amount across your cheekbones underneath your foundation, and voila! You have the perfect shimmery complexion you have always wanted.

It's super soft and bright, and pigmented enough that you only need a tiny amount every time you use it. This is great because it means that it lasts for ages!
This cream it so good that, sometimes, I even put some on when I'm not wearing any makeup (on top of my moisturiser, of course). 

Vichy 3 in 1 Purete Thermale Micellar Solution

Vichy is by far one of my favourite skincare brands, as literally every product I've bought has proven to be fantastic.

This micellar water is part of Vichy's brand new range Purete Thermale, which is especially designed for sensitive skin, and it has an amazing variety of products.

Normally, I would buy Garnier's micellar water, mainly because it's one of the cheapest ones, and it does the job pretty well. However, a few weeks ago, and thanks to Boots' 3 for 2 offer, I decided to treat myself to this beauty by Vichy- and I am very glad I did!

You can really tell the difference between lower budget water and this one; the way it leaves your skin after you use it makes paying that little bit extra worth it. My skin doesn't look as red since I bought this and I haven't had any spots either!

Once Upon a Time Season 5

Last but not least, something a little bit different.

The fifth season of Once Upon Time started at the end of September, and it has literally been the only thing I have used Netflix for lately!

If you haven't seen OUAT before, then all you need to know is that it's real life Disney- a sometimes hit and miss real life Disney.

Don't get me wrong, I love it. I am addicted and have been ever since I started watching it last year. But sometimes plots contradict themselves, and things that were a major storyline two seasons ago are solved in one episode in later seasons.

Season 5 has had a slow start but the latest episode was by far the best yet. I love the idea of Emma becoming the Dark One, and the way that good and bad characters are mirroring each other and exchanging roles is, in my opinion, very clever.

I hope you have enjoyed these October Favourites!

What have you been loving this month?
