Things you miss at a music festival...

Hiya guys

Soo I've been away for a few days at a music festival. It was great but I thought I'd do a post on the products I missed while away (I had to pack light soo it really was bear essentials)

I took with me: Lush shower jelly
                         Lidl apple and tea tree shampoo and conditioner (bought while a away)
                         Make-up bag consisting of: Concealer (collection)
                                                                     Foundation (loose powder) (rimmel)
                                                                     Blush (benefit)
                                                                     Kjal Eyeliner Pencil (avon, colourtrend)
                                                                     Mascara (Maxfactor)
I also took my Real Techniques Expert Face brush and a non branded but very soft blush brush.

As you can see this was fairly minimal, but there were a few products that I really missed which shows how much I like them, the list is as follows;

1)  L'Oreal Elvive Full Restore 5 Repairing shampoo and conditioner 
     I love this shampoo and conditioner, I find they really help to undo the damage I have done to my hair over the past few years. I've recently been trying to take better care of my hair by using keratin treatments and avoiding heat. This shampoo and conditioner duo has a keratin treatment built in and is at very affordable price. All in all a five star product.

2) Organix Brazilian Keratin Therapy Anti-breakage serum
   When I went shopping for keratin hair products I was instantly drawn to the Organix Brazilian Keratin Therapy range, they are however rather pricey and the above shampoo and conditioner big bottles were on offer in Boots. Soo I decided that I would treat myself to the slightly more expensive serum and it was really worth it! It smells delicious and leaves my hair soft and manageable, I missed it soo much this weekend especially as I went swimming.

3) Palmer's Cocoa Butter
    I don't think this needs much explaining, it's a staple moisturiser that smells yummy and leaves your skin feeling soft and moisturised all day long. I missed this particularly after a long day in the sun and after swimming.

4) Botanics Organic Hot Cloth Cleansing Balm
    This is by far the best product I have found for cleansing my face. It leaves my face feeling soft and moisturised and clean without being at all tight. It smells lovely and natural and pleasant, a little like organic pale honey.

Are any of you going to any festivals or a away at all this year? What are your travel essentials? Please tell me I'd love to hear from you.

Lots of love

Sorry for the break...

Apologies for the HUGE gap there has been since my last post. I've been going through a rough time, I broke up with my first proper boyfriend who I'd been dating for five months, my ME/CFS has been playing up horrendously which has severely affected my body image and anorexia, due to the fact that I am unable to exercise. I have also had a lot of work to prepare for my return to college in September.

On the bright side things are starting to look up, I have been with my current boyfriend for just over two months and he makes me happier than I could ever imagine. My ME is still bad and this is still leading to poor body image but Reece is supporting me through it.

I have had my place confirmed at college to study music, musical theatre, dance and art. I am excited to start but i have a lot of work to complete over the holidays to prepare.

 I will try to keep posting regularly as it really does help me but obviously I am starting to be quite busy with preparation work, friends and Reece, plus looking after my pets who I will introduce you too in a later post.

Lots of Love
