My name is Parie and I am addicted to highlight. Even more so when its advertised as limited edition, it just makes me want it more and more no matter how much I resist. When BECCA announced their limited edition Royal Glow highlight, I knew that eventually my finger would slip and it would arrive through the letterbox. Since turning up, I haven't put it down and can see myself using this a lot.

Favourite posts are so hard for me to keep on top of, I just seem to use all the same products all the time and then just buy the same ones when I run of them. This month I tried some new things and I think next month is going to be even better because I have started planning my makeup out for the week to use more things up and try.
I asked someone at work what perfume they were wearing and when they said it was from Primark, I legged it over there to see if I could find it. The Polka Rose Oud is a gorgeous, sandalwoody, musky scent that just fills the room. My mum hates it but there's something about that just appeals to me.
Concealer has to be the number one product that I can now live without, I used to use the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer years ago but never got round to buying it again. Trishna kept mentioning it on her blog and that urged me to buy it again. It is so creamy, easy to blend and packs a punch. I love using this to cover any redness and wear on its own on a no makeup, makeup day too. The Primark Concealer has been my go to under eye concealer of the moment, it is way lighther than my skin tone so works really well and is decent coverage too - not bad for £2.
Another perfume favourite comes in the form of Scent & Co*, and I finally got the chance to try the very popular Flowerbomb perfume. Its a perfume subscription, where each month for just £14.95 you get to choose which scent you'd like to try! The little bottle comes in a travel container and fits in my tiniest little handbag and the scent is just amazing. Use the code INSTA15 for 15% off.
When shopping with friends, I end up buying things I really don't need! Like this Maybelline Superstay Ink, its £10 for a lipstick from Maybelline which is just ridiculous to me. I have to say though, it is worth every penny. This shade is a stunning mauve pink, the formula is very long lasting, matte and doesn't dry on the lips. It has a fancy wand as well and makes applying the lipstick a lot easier. I now need more from the collection...
My love of earrings is never going to go away, infact I wear a different pair everyday now - that is how obsessed I am. This little number is from Glistkin* and are only £2.99. They have so many gorgeous and some very dainty pieces in their shop and all under £10, I need to get some new bits from them because these are just incredible for such a low price.
I finally finished Grey's Atanomy, and by finish, I mean all 14 seasons. I only started in February but dedicated myself to the programme (I'm known as someone who can finish a series pretty quick). It has been a rollercoaster of emotions but worth every minute. Ahh its just amazing.
What have you been loving this month, TV wise? I need something new to binge watch!
3 Aldi Specialbuys You Can't Miss
Thursday, May 24
Aldi seem to always cause a stir when they release new product, a few months ago it was the Jo Malone sort of candles and now they've hit the nail on the head again. Their most recent release of special buys have hit the ball out the park and the best way to keep up with them is by signing up to their newsletter along and keep in the loop. Then you have to go either the day of or the day after to grab them because people are quick!

The Two in One Lip
Tuesday, May 22
One of the things I love about the online world is that there is no limit. Anyone, everyone can do anything and whatever they like without any restriction. This is the same when it comes to makeup, I feel like the beauty world has taken a massive leap since online blogs, instagrams, youtubers and more became so popular. With the growing popularity comes the urge to want to buy more things and create those looks. Let's not joke when I say its really hard. It is hard to recreate those glamorous looks without spending money on the same products because you just know it won't look the same. HAX, is a new brand and exclusive to ASOS who make this just that bit easier. They've created kits that makes recreating the instagram look so much easier!
