MAY FAVOURITES

It’s that time again for another edition of my monthly favourites! Scroll down to discover what I’ve been coveting last month!

I have been using this every AM & PM for the last few months and I am absolutely in love.  It’s so refreshing and preps my skin perfectly (without drying it out) to absorb the rest of my skincare regime!
Another Darphin Paris favourite, this cream is the perfect consistency.  Light but creamy and you feel  a difference in your skin after the first use.  I’m so picky when it comes to moisturizers, this is easily in my top 5.
If you haven’t already heard of Sugarfina you’re missing out! These chic treats for adults are just as yummy as they are beautiful…hoping they open a Toronto location soon!
I’ve been using so many different creams during my pregnancy, I feel each month it changes depending on the size of my belly but during my second trimester these two were my go-tos!
   
This beauty was gifted to me from my sweet Mr.  By now you all know how deep my love for Kate Spade runs right? This was the perfect addition to my growing collection especially since it’s in my favourite hue! Totally on brand.  I love that it’s a punch of colour but still neutral enough to match with everything!
   
I had heard so many amazing reviews of this that I had to try it for myself.  I’ll be honest I was not expecting to love it as much as I do! We have a full Charlotte Tilbury tutorial coming to the blog soon but this has been my go-to for all of May and I don’t see it changing anytime soon! The bronze is the perfect shade for my skin tone and that hi light…oh la la!
   
Another CT favourite…I usually go for red tones for me lips because it’s really difficult for me to find a nude that compliments my skin and lip colour – this is a perfect hue because it has a touch of pink.  I love it!
   
Hello Blizzard season! I think what I love most about blizzards is that there is a mini size.  It’s the perfect little hit of deliciousness.  My favourite has always been mint oreo (snapchat family knows) but sadly they are discontinuing it! so I’ve been trying to test new flavours! The new royal blizzards are coming close to becoming my new go-to! Any suggestions?
   
I cannot believe I am only talking about this now as I’ve had this mattress for the last 6+ months.  I really enjoyed this mattress when we first got it but I have to say I’ve been even more impressed with it as I become bigger and bigger! It’s the perfect mix of firm and soft – it holds my lower back perfectly.  You can’t beat the price point whether you’re in the market for yourself or for a guest room look no further – this is your mattress!
   
I was ‘off’ coffee for months during my 1st and 2nd trimester only the last two months or so I’m so glad I’m able to drink it a little again (just the thought and smell of it for months made my stomach turn!).  When I’m out I can go for a hot latte but at home I’ve been opting for iced Americanos! I splurged on this Krups machine when Ko and I first got married (best money ever spent).  I make a small shot of espresso, coconut milk, water and ice…I do drink my coffees super watered down.  I used to put two shots but I’m limiting the amount of caffeine I’m having since I’m preggo!
