Monthly faves: JULY!

End of the month can mean only one: it's time for monthly favourites! I usually always get a positive feedback on those short "reviews" of my favourite things, that's why I decided to start writing separate review posts, because some products are my all time favourites and will never make it into my monthly faves, because I use them all the time. Tell me your thoughts on that. :)

First product, I've been using a lot is Essence Marble mania blush in 01 swirlpool. It's a nice rosy shimmery blush, which gives my cheeks really pretty glow and I don't even have to use a highlighter with it, because it's already shimmery. :)

My favourite of the favourites has to be Seche Vite Dry fast top coat. It dries your polish in a minute, after ten minutes I can make myself a lunch :D. It makes my nail colouring so much easier, because I always manage to ruin my manicure somehow. I bought this magic bottle on E-bay, I think it was around 7 €.

Second nail polish I've been loving this month (I actually had it for a year now, but used it only once, because it dries so slowly, but thank you Dry fast top coat, you make my life so much easier :D) is Essence multi dimension XXXL shine in 68 Perfectly true. It's white with no glitter, shimmer, just plain white varnish :).

Another polish I've been loving lately is Essence colour & go in 38 Choose me! Year ago I wasn't really into shimmery polishes, but now I just love them. This one looks so cute on my toe nails!

I've been listening a lot of non-mainstream and non-commercial music, because working in a shop with clothes you hear that sh*t every day and some songs just make you nervous an you start hating them! :) On repeat this month: The Cunninglynguists - Darkness.

I am doing much more yoga and I started liking it. I still like my HIIT workouts though, but some days I feel like doing something much less impulsive or I combine both - high intensity interval training and yoga. I'm still a beginner at it :).

My favourite food of the month has to be salad. It's been so hot through all month that I'm not really in the mood to cook anything. I mix all kind of veggies, sometimes even fruit, mozzarella cheese, tuna, beans and other yummy healthy stuff :).

I know I'm kinda late, but finally I found time to watch all new episodes of True Blood season 5. Super excited for a new episode :). Do you watch True Blood? Which TV series do you like most?

That all for today's post. What are your faves of the month?

March '12 favourites!

In March I wasn't really trying any new products, but I fell in love with my older ones, which I had forgotten about and started using again ... I also mentioned my latest favourite book and song. Let's start! :)

1. Makeup Factory Mat Eye Shadow in a nude-ish colour has been in my makeup collection for about two years. I neglected it for some time, but when I started using it again I remembered why I had loved it so much before. It's so soft and easy to apply, it's so perfect for blending or for all over colour (I usually use it with my winged liner look) or even for setting my under eye concealer - works great as a powder, too :D. What a must-have product!

2. Second eyeshadow is from Catrice Absolute Eye Colour in 350 Starlight Expresso. This colour is so perfect for my eyebrows (it's kinda grey-ish brown), because with other brown-ish shadows eyebrows can look too red and it's just ... awkward. I apply it with my IsaDora angled brush and my eyebrows look even more awesome as they are :).

3. Best highlighter at the moment is an eyeshadow from Alverde in 09 Nude Rose. It's meant to be an eye colour, but it looks so great on cheeks, nose and cupid bows! I stopped using it because it fell on the floor and crushed into little pieces and was to lazy to fix it. I managed to fix it like MacGyver though :)). Will write a blog about fixing eye shadows!

4. I have never really been a book lover. But in March I read quite some books and one of them was from Jillian Michaels Unilimited (yes, she is a fitness guru, but also an amazing life coach). Been fan of hers for quite some time, but afterwards reading the book I feel in love with her even more. Do you wanna change your life? Then read it! :) I bought mine on bestseller.si.

5. Nah, I don't really like Justin Bieber, but this cover of his new song "Boyfriend" from Chester See and Andy Lange is currently my favourite! I haven't even heard whole song from JB, because the cover is so good and I believe the original would sound rubbish :D

Tell me about yours currently favourite products, books, movies, songs ... Would love to hear or read!
Hope you had a lovely weekend,
