Friday Favourites

Happy Friday everyone! Every Friday I am going to share with you guys five of my favourite buys, places, recipes, and more from the week before. Here is my very first Friday Favourites post - check back every Friday at 8pm for more!

MAC Mineralize Skinfinish Highlighter in "Soft + Gentle"
Having heard so many amazing things about this product, I decided to invest in one for myself. And wow - I now understand the hype. This peachy highlighter gives a really natural but striking glow. Whilst the Sleek Solstice Palette (for a review, click here) is great value for money, this highlighter - in my opinion - is far superior, and well worth the extra dollar!




Black Eyed Susans
I really could not put this book down! Black Eyed Susans is a compelling thriller which flits between two time periods from the life of victim and narrator Tessa Cartwright. Her testimony helped to put away the person she believed to be her attacker - but now, as his capital punishment draws close, Tessa starts to have her doubts. Working with a team of lawyers and forensics, Tessa tries to draw together the clues from her past to find out the truths of what really happened decades before.





Lindos, Rhodes
Having just spent an amazing week in beautiful Rhodes, all I can think about is a gorgeous little town called Lindos. With a maze of narrow pathways, surrounded by white rooftop restaurants + shops selling pretty ceramics, Lindos is a popular destination for tourists. But the lagoon-like beach, hidden at the bottom of the hill, is peaceful + serene, away from the bustling crowds above. If you are ever in Rhodes, make a trip down to Lindos, where you can shop, swim + even hire out your own boat. My Holiday in Rhodes post goes live this Sunday, 10am if you want to see what else I got up to on my travels!




Nars All Day Luminous Weightless Foundation
This foundation promises to give a natural yet full coverage, provide 16-hour long wear, and be completely weightless. And you know what? It completely delivers. The coverage is similar to MAC's Studio Fix, yet this foundation is so much lighter on the skin. Best paired with a primer, All Day Luminous is buildable, easily blended and really does last the whole day.



Orange Is the New Black
I realise that most of the English-speaking world have watched, or at least heard of, this prison-set comedy-drama. However, having just binge-watched it's fourth season in under 30 hours, I felt this Netflix-original deserved a place in my Friday Favourites. The topics touched upon in the latest OITNB series are harrowing + hard hitting. And even though by the final episode you're left feeling as angry, heart-broken, and vengeful as the complex characters incarcerated at Litchfield Prison, this is my favourite season by far. If you're not already hooked, then head over to Netflix to get your fix. Roll on season five...


What are you loving this week? Can you spot any of your favourites above? What did you think of OITNB's cliffhanger ending?
