Fuerteventura

It seems like it's been forever since I got back from Spain and I haven't done a post about it yet. This year on the 24th June Matthew and I travelled to the lovely island of Fuerteventura. (You'll see this after reading my June faves) We stayed in a wonderful hotel in the south of the Island in an area called Jandia, sometimes known as Morro Jable which is basically next door. It was our first 2 week holiday abroad together, we've obviously been away together before but not for quite as long. Quite wary about the area and lengthy stay Matthew and I made sure to include plenty of excursions into our holiday, this way we would never get bored and would get to make the most of our holiday and the area we were staying in.

 

Fuerteventura itself is a pretty scarce island with sometimes nothing for miles away from the airport. Our hotel being in the south of the island amongst beautiful beaches and picturesque mountains was around a little over an hour and half's transfer from the airport. We made the most of the scenery and took ourselves on walks across the beach (which was the only way to get to the other towns other than taxi) to get to Jandia town where we spent a few days enjoying the beaches, shopping areas and restaurants.

 

We went to the Oasis Park which is Fuerteventura's only zoo. It was massive! Name an animal and they have, it was brilliant. We made the most of our day out by paying that little bit extra to meet some of the animals. We rode on Camels, met the Lemurs in their enclosure and fed Zebras, Elephants and Goats. Definitely an experience I won't forget.

 

Not to forget, We also had a day of adventuring on a 4x4 Jeep Safari. Matthew, me and 2 other English couples were taken in a jeep around different parts of the south of the island by a lovely Italian guide called Benny. We were taken to parts of the island that are only accessible by off road, we saw huge mountains and beautiful sandy beaches. We were even taken to Point of Wind which stands by it's name as the windiest point of the island. Terrifying and amazing at the same time, I was scared that my donut would get blown off in the wind but it managed to stay put. Though we did get back to our hotel at the end of the day wearing half of the sand from each beach we visited.

 

Here are some of my favourite photos of our adventures in Spain.

 

I had a fabulous holiday with my best friend.

Thank you for the memories.

It was a holiday I'll never forget.

June Favourites

I am forever missing posting my monthly faves just because I sometimes haven't had any new products or things to share with you guys or I haven't had the time to sit and think what I've been loving and make a post for it. I'll definitely start to make more of an effort when I get new products, or have something exciting to share with you.

Fuerteventura
Matthew and I have recently just came back from our 2 week holiday in Fuerteventura. Neither of us had ever been to the Island and it is different to what we've been used to. This is mainly because the hotel which we stayed at; Club Magic Life Imperial is located in the south of the island and some of the area around that part of the island is fairly scares. But we made the most of what we had in our area and booked some excursions to take part in. We visited the islands zoo where we rode Camels, fed Elephants, Zebras and Goats and also went into the Lemur enclosure and I had a Lemur jump on my back! Definitely an experience I won't forget and would love to do again!

Soap and glory body mist
The Soap and Glory Body Mists have been a big fave of mine this month! I think they've actually been in my faves before, but whatever! I can never decide which perfume to use on a daily basis and regularly reach for my different S&P Body Mists (INCLUDE NAMES OF THE 2). The package is just perfect for S&P and I can't wait to try the scents in there Citrus range. Not only have I been loving the Body Mists but S&P also have a Moisturizing Body Mist which is like a spray scented lotion, this stuff have been perfect for me in the evenings while I've been away, after using my regular after sun I would spray Body Mist on my arms and chest to give myself a bit of a shimmery glow and extra special scent.

 

 Barry M eyebrow gel

Just recently before I went on my holidays I found myself looking in the makeup section in Poundland. I am a massive sucker for a bargain! and when I was looking through the makeup section I had found they sell all sorts of different branded make up and products, from Sally Hansen Nail Polish to Miss Sporty Foundation and I picked up for myself a Barry M Eyebrow Gel. This little beauty has been wonderful for me, after having my eyebrows threaded before I went away, the eyebrow gel works it wonders to help keep my brows in shape and tidy. The gel is in the form of a mascara style brush comb. I use the W7 Brow Twister to fill in my brows where they are lighter and then use the Barry M Eyebrow Gel to keep them looking neat and tidy. The gel helps them stay in shape all day long! A bargain of a find for a £1 I think.
