I'm such a huge lover of drugstore skincare and definitely have my favourite brands, so today I'm talking you through my top 5 products!

First off, is the L'Oreal Smooth Scrubs nourishing scrub. I have been obsessed with this as the weather has gotten warmer! I tend to find that the sun really dries my skin so I've been loving using this to get rid of any dry spots. It's got 3 different sugars to tackle different things which I thought was really good ; it's got white sugar to buff away impurities and dead skin, blonde sugar because it's a natural moisturiser and brown sugar as it's rich in minerals to help strengthen the skin's barrier.



The next is a mask that I was sent by Formula 10.0.6 a couple of months ago (to see my review of all products click here). I've been loving using this mask to clear the pores around my nose. It feels so gentle on the skin, but still really detoxes pores. It makes my skin feel so clear and fresh - it's not like any other mask I've tried! It also smells amazing - the bergamot makes it such a lovely scent for summer as well as it's not too heavy.


You'll probably all be bored of me droning on abut this moisturiser now, but I literally cannot get enough of it! It's a water based formula so feels really light on the skin but still feels like it's doing good. It makes your skin look really dewy and glowy; what else could you ask for in a moisturiser?! They also do it in 3 types so they cater to all skin types ; dry and sensitive, dry to normal and normal to combination! It's also infused with hyaluronic acid so really helps improve the appearance of the skin's surface!

I think we can all agree that the 2 dresses Meghan wore yesterday were absolutely GORGEOUS! So, I've decided to round up as much information as I can find about the two dresses and put them nicely into one post!

So, the first dress was designed by Clare Waight Keller for Givenchy, who said the aim was to create a "timeless minimal elegance". The dress was a simple A-line style gown with a boat neckline. The simple design was accentuated by the three-quarter length sleeves and a short train. To add to this, there was a 16 foot silk tulle veil that had every national flower of each 53 Commonwealth countries.












The second dress was a simple high neck dress by Stella McCartney silk crepe dress that she paired with Aquazzura satin heels.

I've always been one to get very excited about a royal wedding, and this is the first one since I started blogging so I couldn't not do a post on it could I!? In light of that, I'm sharing with you my recent discovery that will make sure you celebrate in style!


So, lets talk about cake! Recently, I discovered a gorgeous little cake company called BakerDays and they really kindly offered to send me a cake to share with you lovely lot! They're an incredible brand that lets you customise your own cakes - you can add any photos and text that you want and all of the styles are utterly gorgeous!


I got a letterbox cake which, as the name suggests, fits through your letterbox! It's literally the best idea because you don't even need to be in to take delivery! This size is designed to give 3-4 portions, but they also do: cupcakes (12 portions), small (10-12 portions), medium (18-25 portions) and large (40-55 portions), so you can get a cake for anything from a small family party to a huge street party!


My cake has a gorgeous union jack design, with a picture of Harry and Meghan in the middle, and  you literally cannot get more Royal Wedding than that can you! They also do the best range of flavours - including gluten free and dairy free cakes, so there's something for everyone for any occasion as they have designs for over 40 different events! I went for chocolate and it tastes incredible! It's so rich and velvety but not in a really heavy, sickly way!

If you want to order your own cake go to www.bakerdays.com and use the code LOULOVES15 at the checkout for 15% off your order - the code's valid until June 30th! If do order a cake be sure to tag me on Instagram so I can see which style you went for!

So, now you have the best cake for your party, here are some really useful posts I've found with all the essentails:

- Real Simple

Thank you so much for reading, I hope you all enjoyed this post, and I'll see you all next week!
