May Favorites



Hello, hello :)
Welcome back to Wonderland, today's post is going to be my May favorite's. I'm going to share with you lovely lot some products I've been loving that little bit extra during the month of May so let's get started...

Boot's Rose Water & Glycerin Toner

I have super sensitive skin, in fact I've been on medication from a young age due to horrible acne. These day's I have much better skin, I'm quite lucky to have clear skin (for the most part anyway!). I have tried so many skincare products in the past, some with horrible results and some with next to no results, BUT this rosewater toner from Boot's is amazing! Yes, I said amazing. This is my 2nd or 3rd bottle this year and I'm still in love.I use it every night after taking off my make-up and all that jazz. It smells divine and really does help my skin a lot. If you haven't already, give it a try - you won't regret it!

Maybelline Vivids

I'm not going to talk too much about this here because I already spoke in detail about it here, but I have been loving, loving, loving this! How many times can a person say loving in one sentence!? The colour I've been obsessing over is Hot Plum, which is a super bright shade of purple that's suitable for a day time or a night time look! Perfect...

Barry M in Ridley Road

This is a bit of a controversial one now because when I went in to pick up another one....or four, they were gone?! As in removed of the shelf due to issues with the quality standards or something? Is this just in the Boots where I live or has anyone else seen it? Anyway, rant over, this textured polish in Ridley Road is a beautiful mint green colour and I love it so much. The textured effect means its very hard to mess up which is great when you have no patience like me. It's lasting power is impressive too, 5 day's without a chip and opaque in only 2 coats!

Spiked Chain

I've seen this style of chain floating around a while ago, and I really liked it. I'm a huge fan of anything spiked or studded so you can see why I like this so much. However, been a poor student I couldn't splash out on some of the nicer ones so the budget friendly student in me came out, hit eBay and found this beauty. It was € 1.17 including P&P, How could you wrong? I got mine in 'gun metal' silver but these are also available in silver and gold. I'd love one in metallic pink or purple. Hmm.... 

NARS blush in Orgasm

If you've been around Wonderland for a while you'll know I received this stunning NARS blush as a present and it's certainly been my go to blush throughout May. It's such a pretty colour with just the right amount of shimmer to it. It's so gorgeous I think I'll be loving it throughout June too...

So that my little beauties are all of my May favourite's - my first post of this kind, and hopefully not my last! I quite liked sharing my monthly picks with you guy's!

What have you all been loving this month? Any recommendations for products to look out for in June? :)

Keep Smiling! x

New In - Maybelline Vivids

Hello, remember me? I'm sorry it's been a while since I've blogged I've been so busy with life stuff but I'm back babies! Today I want to tell you about two b-e-a-utiful lipsticks I've acquired in the last week. The new Maybelline Vivids... Ladies I cannot get enough of these, they have the most amazing colour range I've seen in a long time and from Boots too! I got the colours 'shocking coral' and 'hot plum' and after I seen Essie posting pictures of these lipsticks on her Instagram I knew they had to be mine.. The colour pay off is great and they apply so smoothly I really am trying to stop myself from buying the whole range! At the minute in Ireland they have €10.50 buy one get one half price, you defiantly can't go wrong with that :) How are you all? It's been super sunny here the last few day's which I've been loving :)

Will you be looking into these?

Purple Knits & Messy Hair

Hi guys!
I have another outfit post for you today. I'm aware that this is 4 in a row but I've had these ready to go for a while now & I'm only getting round to it now due to college work! my tights are a new purchase from Pennys/Primark and I am obsessed, I love them so much! my purple cardigan is one of my most loved pieces during both Winter and Summer. Summer is never exactly umm, hot in Ireland so wearing knits all year around is perfectly acceptable where I live. This purple one is speckled with lot's of different colours and it goes with the majority of the wardrobe. I like this outfit, it has a boho feel to it, maybe it's the shoes hmm.. Messy hair, dark eyes and bright lips all to accompany my fashion choices this time! What do you think?

Podka Dots & Red Lips

I'm pretty sure everyone will agree with me when I say you can't go wrong with a red lip. Personally I love a classic red lip and this one is a smooch one that I got a while page, it's so soft and silky, it's a dream to apply!! Green trousers are a bit.. weird? but I think they work quite well with this simple black tee with white podka dots :) my studded leather flats are the same ones I wrote about in my 'for the love of spikes' posts and as you can see I still love them and wear them far too often!

I'm going out tomorrow night to celebrate been finished exams so that's exciting, and I start work on Saturday morning. I got a job for the summer as a childminder for two gorgeous little girls so I'm excited to start that :) Anyway, my outfit on Tuesday consisted of a black skater skirt, black tights, leopard print pumps, an extremely old but mega comfy grey tshirt and my favorite blazer :) pretty simple but I got a few compliments which is always nice! What have you all been up too? Did you miss me? ;)
