I didn’t think I could do it but here we are again. Welcome to my monthly favorites from May 2012. It is a very time consuming process to do these installments but they are really fun and I have made it my mission not to slack off no matter how busy I am :) Without further ado, here are the favorites!

Bring out the Kool Aid and fancy glasses for it is a time to celebrate! Sugarpill, my favorite indie makeup brand has released a new precious for my collection. The beautiful Heart Breaker quad has arrived in my mailbox and I couldn’t be more excited. Let me kick off this post by giving a round of applause to Miss Kika who is the artist behind Sugarpill’s ultra cute packaging graphics. Every time I look at the cuteness of the box I feel like exploding into a shower of pink cotton candy glitter onto an ocean of rainbow ambrosia >_< So cute!

Lush Ocean Salt Facial Scrub

Lush Ocean Salt Facial Scrub

Lush Ocean Salt Facial Scrub is a product that I have been using for years and I do believe that it was one of my first ever Lush purchases. What first attracted me to the product was the amazing fragrance and bright blue colour. It was heaps more interesting than the ol Freeman’s Apricot Scrub that I had grown up with. This is a product that never lets me down. It buffs and moisturizes at the same time and the smell takes me away to a far away place where palm trees sway in the ocean breeze and I can feel warm sand between my toes. It is a really a pleasure to use.

Montagne Jeunesse is a brand that I have been using on and off for years. I really enjoy using their colourfully packaged products – in particular their face masks. A few weeks back I tried their White Chocolate Deep Cleansing Mask which was a delicious experience and so when I went back to Target to pick up a few more packets I spotted this other mask in a tube. It looked really promising – cinnamon and ginger, self warming, 10 applications per bottle and so in the basket it went. I couldn’t wait to try it out that night!
