July Favourites 2013

 Yes people, it is that time again. It's a new month which means it's time for another monthly favourites, woo! This months favourites is a bit random so I'm just going to get straight into it.
 The first thing on my list of things that I've been loving throughout July is a book, which might be surprising for those who know me because I don't read much. I'm going to be honest, I haven't actually finished this book yet but I only have about a chapter left. It's "I Was a Boy in Belsen" by Tomi Reichental and I got this book by the author who is a survivor of the holocaust and he visited our school to talk to the history students about his story of surviving the holocaust and what it was like for a Jewish person living during World War II. The book not only talks about what it was like for him during the holocaust but also how some of his family survived. I found the book so interesting but it was also really sad to see so many people being treat so badly, but I think everyone should read it so Tomi's story can be shared around the world.
 If any of you follow me on Twitter, which you can do here, you'll know that I've been absolutally obsessed with Bondi Rescue lately. For any of you that don't know, it's a TV show about Australian lifeguards that work on Bondi Beach. I think it's so interesting to see how professional lifeguards work and save people's lives on a daily basis, and not only are the lifeguards extremely good looking but they are also really funny so you can get a good laugh watching this. For anyone wondering, I love all the lifeguards but my absolute favourites have to be Mouse or Chappo.
 The next thing I've been loving is probably the most random, it's McDonald's Iced Mochas and oh dear lord are they delicious. They're practically chocolate milk mixed with coffee with crushed ice and cream on top and they're amazing, I could live on them. They're my favourite drink of all time, ever!
 Since the weather was really nice in Ireland recently and it was really hot, it does make you sweat whether you like it or not, so a product I've been loving has been the Sure Long Lasting Protection Deodorant. They stop you sweating, obviously but the thing I love most is they have a range of loads of different smells and they all smell really nice and the smell stays on your skin so you don't have to keep spraying it on you throughout the day.
 Another product I've been loving is a really cheap lip gloss by Natural Collection. It's one of their Juicy Lips in "Raspberry Ripple". It's a nice light pink colour with a bit of shimmer and I robbed this lip gloss from my mam because she didn't like how the glitter felt on her lips but I don't mind it. My favourite thing about this lip gloss is that it smells amazing, it smells really fruity and just really nice.
 I'm not one to use fake lashes because I was blessed with lashes that I'm happy with but I was at a party the other day and decided I would try some. I bought some iEnvy by Kiss ones in Pennys/Primark, they were the "Au Naturable 01" ones and people said they couldn't tell I had lashes on. I was really surprised with how well they stayed on throughout the night because they were quite cheap but they didn't move at all and I kept touching my eyes so I thought they were really good!
 The last few products in my July Favourites are all hair products. The first is a dry shampoo, it's the Batiste Dry Shampoo in "Cool and Crisp Fresh" which smells really nice and makes my hair feel really clean and fresh if I don't have the time to wash my hair in the shower. I'm not saying I don't shower and just use this, I shower very often but sometimes my hair just feels a bit icky so this product just gives my hair the lift it needs.
 The last two products are from the same range, they're from the Trevor Sorbie "Beautifully Straightened" range. My favourite products from the range are the "Protect, Flatten and Shine Spray" and the "Lightweight Serum" which I use before I straighten my hair with a straightener. They protect you're hair when you use a straightener and it keeps your hair super straight until you curl it, or wash it. It also makes your hair very shiny which is always nice.
 We're finished, yay! So they're all the things that I loved all throughout July and that I will probably love for a very long time to come because they're all fabulous. Hopefully this post will, maybe, introduce you to some new things that you will grow to love as much as me and if you have any suggestions of thing you think I should try then feel free to leave a comment or contact me in any way, all my links are always on the side of my blog. And if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask, I'd be more then happy to help. As always, thanks for reading :)
