Baby favorites
I have two main favorites that have been very useful for me this month. Firstly are some bibs, sounds boring but they are really good. We have two lots of these bibs that do up on the side which are so much easier than the "dribble bibs" that do up on the back. One set of bibs are from M&S and the other F&F at Tesco. If you are thinking of getting bibs as a present or getting prepared for a baby I would really recommend any that fasten in this way.
The best thing by far that I have this month is my Tommee Tippee Perfect Prep machine. It is a godsend. I intended on breastfeeding but it didn't work out so we are having to bottle feed. This is such a chore especially as we are demand feeding and to make a bottle with the kettle everytime takes forever as your supposed to let the water cool a bit and then make the bottle. This is easier said than done with a crying baby. I did a little research and found quite a few people recommended the perfect prep machine.
It makes each bottle within 2 minutes and is the perfect temperature to give to the baby straight away. It is by far one of the best purchase I made for the baby. I will write a full review at some point.
Body favorites
With the cold weather coming my skin has become so dry I had to find some really nourishing moisturisers. There are two that I have found that have really helped.
For hands I use Atrixo Intensive Protection Cream, this is really thick, I tend to use it at night as it takes a while to soak in but I really feel the benefits. For the body I have recently found Nivea Rich Nourishing Moisturiser, this takes a while to work in as it has the consistency of sun lotion but once I work it in it makes my skin feel so nice and smooth, I really notice the difference especially to the eczema that I am prone to getting on my legs.
Beauty favorites
I haven't been wearing much make up this month but when I have it has been very simple and easy.
The main products I have been using are a bit of concealer, my favorite is the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. Then some eyeshadow, I have been using my Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 palette which is really useful when doing an easy look as you only need the one palette to create the look. I mainly used shadows Skimp and Stark across the whole lid and then ran a bit of Cover through the crease. Then to finish the look I have been using a lick of mascara, I have been trying a few different mascaras recently so just use which ever one I fancy.
Television favorites
Now the nights are darker there is nothing better than snuggling on the sofa and watching some good tele.
There are a couple of programs I have been really loving.
Both my husband and myself have been really into The Hunt on the BBC. It is a wildlife documentary but the shots and picture quality are amazing. The basis is animals hunting and catching their prey. It also shows at the end how they got the footage and they spend weeks / months out waiting and filming to catch the action. I feel like I want to get into more documentaries, if anyone has any recommendations let me know.
A new show that I am enjoying is Scream Queens on E4, it is so good. I would say that it is a mixture of things like Mean Girls, 90210 and scary film parodies like Scary Movie. The basic storyline is there is a murderer on the loose and the targets are girls in a college fraternity. The script and story line is rubbish but that's what makes it funny and why I love it. The fashion in it is amazing, there is lots of fur and pink. A lot of the things you wouldn't wear but it looks amazing. If you haven't seen it I would recommend it just for a laugh.
That's my favorites for this month. Coming next is my Christmas series on decorations, craft and baking.
