SEPTEMBER FAVOURITES!

Monday, 7 October 2013
Here at LAOR we have A  LOT of favourite products, so we decided to show you guys them! We've had to narrow it down, here they are! Also, we want to know what your favourites of last month were, tell us in the comments!

Beauty:

Amy:

1 - Philosophy: Hope in a stick. This product is so lovely to apply, it's nice and moist so it doesn't tug at the lip. Nice and balmy. S'pose that's what you look for in a lip BALM, wouldn't be a balm if it wasn't very balmy, eh? Love a good balm! (No idea why I just said that, just going with the flow!) Anyway, its just an all rounder! Doesn't have a scent, but I. Just. Love. This! I actually got this in the Summer, when my Mum went to Hawaii, they gave her a philosophy pack on the plane, so I 'borrowed' it from her! Anyway - good product, highly recommend this!

2 - Sally Hensen XTREME WEAR nail colour - in no. 89 Ruby Stilettos. A wonderful shade, a sparkly red, I actually bought this in August with Christmas in mind (78 Days, OMG) but then found it in my bag one day and tried it out! Just brilliant, I wouldn't totally agree with the 'XTREME WEAR' part, it just lasted about average time, but I still love it! Rush out and buy it before Christmas, yay!

3 - NIVEA Smooth Nourishing Hand Cream, I don't think I can stress how much I love hand cream, it is an absolute essential in my life, it comes with me everywhere - school, in my hand bag, at home, EVERYWHERE, so I have tried many in the past and this has to be in my top 2, along with Soap and glory HAND FOOD. It is lovely, and not greasy at all! ILOVEIT, fast drying and a good scent! brilliant!

Megan:

1 - NYC Big Bold Curl Mascara, up until I purchased this mascara, I have always used high end mascaras as I thought 'the more expensive, the better it must be' I couldn't of been more wrong. I bought this in Superdrug (a drugstore here in the UK) for £2.49 - I couldn't believe how cheap it was, and, to be honest, I didn't expect it be very good, however, I was extremely wrong! I bought it in extra black - the blacker the better, and not only is long lasting, it makes your eyelashes look a lot fuller and curls them, hence the name! I'll definitely be re-purchasing this.

2 - Simple Replenishing Moisturiser, I adore this mostiriser! It's absorbs quickly and leaves my skin feeling soft and fresh and  it's also works really well as a primer for foundation. There is no scent and it contains vitamins B5 and E - both very good for your skin!

Song:

Amy:

This had to be Last first Kiss - One Direction... So as you might know I have a wee bit of an obsession with these lads, and I've always loved this song, its from their album Take Me Home and it's a good belter, love a good belter! My parents don't particularly though... This song is just perfect...


Megan:

Over the last month I have had many favourite songs but there is one song that just sticks out from the rest and that is Blue - Angie Hart. Although it's quite an old song, it's still really good. It's quite sad and quite slow, but I love listening to it - it's very calming. How I came across it is a bit weird - I was watching an old episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer (a show both Amy and I adore!) and I got it stuck in my head so I googled the lyrics and then became obsessed with it... Go check it out!

Film/TV:

Amy: (Film)

As you would probably guess, it has to be This Is Us. It was actually out at the end of August, but i was on holiday with my family so I saw it in September, and I'm not just saying this because its 1D, but because I loved it. Megan doesn't like 1D, so I went with another friend, we were the only ones in the showing, 3D might I just add.. and as we were the only ones there we were singing, at the top of our lungs, and just dancing around the cinema! It was such a good film! By the end, we sounded as if we had just been to the concert, again! I'd give it top marks, emotional, fun, musical! Well done Lads!


Megan: (TV)

As I previously mentioned, Amy and I love Buffy The Vampire Slayer, I grew up with it and was completely obsessed when I was about six, I actually thought that I was Buffy! Anyway, moving on from that embarrassing strory, I recently rekindled my love for the programme and managed to watch the entire 7 seasons in a month and a bit, I told you I was obsessed! It's such an enticing program, with lots of comedy, drama and action, it will forever be one of my favourites, definitely worth watching!

So there you have it, our September favourites! We hope enjoyed it, leave your favourites from the past month in the comments.

P.s We are going to (attempt) to update this blog once a week on Fridays.

Thanks for reading, 

Amy & Megan
