♥ My Favourite Cookie Recipe ♥

I shared this picture on Instagram the another day and thought I would share to recipe with you.

Ingredients:

• 125g sugar
• 125g butter
• 1 large egg
• 1tsp of vanilla extract
• 225g sifted self-raising flour
• lots of chocolate and treats (like sprinkles or chocolate drops)

Pop your oven on to 200 degrees celsius 

Cream together your butter and sugar 

Crack in your egg

Add in your sifted flour 

Add a bit of milk if your flour isn't mixing in or the mixture is looking to dry

Throw in all your chocolate and treats 

Line your trays with baking paper 

Start making your cookies about the size of a golf ball (I normally get around 20 cookies but it depends)

Pop them into the oven for 15 minutes and leave them to cool for about 30 minutes (keep checking them regularly after 15 minutes if they are not cooked.

♥ 5 Favourite Products of the Moment ♥

Today I thought I would share my 5 favourite products of the moment.

I adore this mascara at the minute its the Rimmel Lash Accelerator its the perfect combination of a lengthening and volumising mascara.

I've been a little bit obsessed with the Revlon Colorstay Moisture Stains at the minute I will be doing a review soon. This particular one is in the shade Rio Rush and its a perfect bright coral for the summer time. 

A birthday present from my friends was the TopShop lipstick in the shade Brighton rock its a lovely bright pink again lovely for the summer time. Also can I just say I love the smell of TopShop lipsticks and for a drugstore brand the packaging is so pretty.

An all around favourite is the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. I'm loving this at the moment because I can't stand full coverage foundations in the summer time I much prefer just to put on some concealer on my blemishes and this is a definite favourite. 

Another birthday present from my friends was the Naked palette I have been using this nearly every single day since getting this. I love to put Toasted in the crease and Half Baked all over the lid. Thank you Claire and Nicole.

♥ My Shower Routine ♥

Today I'm going to be talking about what I use when I take a shower. I do take a shower everyday however I do wash my hair very other day as it is bad for your hair to be washing it to often.

My current favourite shampoo is the VO5 Smoothly does It Shampoo it just leaves my hair so soft and it helps to control the frizz in my hair.

 Of course I use the matching conditioner. I'm thinking of trying a new shampoo and conditioner soon as I do love this one but it is for dry hair and I don't have dry hair so I think I might try the VO5 shampoo and conditioner for normal hair.

 I do wash my face in the shower and this is my favourite face wash for life its the Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Facial wash. If you need a new face wash please check this one out its around £5 and its so good.

I do switch out my shower gels but my current one is The Body Shop Cranberry Joy Shower Gel that I actually got two Christmases ago it smells really good and I really like The Body Shop shower gels as they are really easy to lather up.

I also use the Aveeno oil as I do have some eczema so its just really moisturising and really good for eczema. So if you have eczema I'd really recommend you checking this out.

So that's all I do in the shower (let apart from singing to myself) Thanks for reading.

♥ American Candy ♥

Recently the lovely team over a Taffy Mail sent me one of there Lite boxes to try out. This contains 4 to 5 treats and costs £7.49 but you can get 10% with the code CLH10, however this does expire in 3 months time.

So I'm going to go over my likes and dislikes from the box I got sent.

My winner for the sweets was very easy to pick as they were definitely the Swedish fish they were different to what I first imagined as I thought they would be a similar consistency to Haribo's but they are a lot small and less chewy which I prefer as sometimes Haribo's can leave my teeth feeling really sore.

Next in the rankings would be the Caramel Apple Pops as it did have a nice flavour and didn't make the roof of my mouth feel sore as some lollipops can do. I thought the flavour was nice and quite original and something you wouldn't really see in a shop here in England.

The Twizzlers was definitely not for me I just don't like liquorice typed sweets I think they just taste weird. 

My favourite out of the chocolate pieces was a lot harder top chose than the sweet favourite as I did love them all but if I did have to pick a standout it would be the Mint with Dark chocolate M&M's they taste like After Eights which are one of my favourite Sweet Treats. 

Of course the White Reese's were a good one as I already love Reese's products but Reese's Pieces do have to be the winner from that brand. 

The 5th Avenue was a nice chocolate bar however it wasn't anything special that I had hoped for. 

So that's my overview of the box I was sent I hope you enjoyed reading and it gave you some inspiration to pick up a box for yourself. 

This box was very kindly gifted by the company but this post is not sponsored and all my opinions are my own
