May Skincare Favourites

While I love summer and the sunshine it brings, my skin often reacts badly to hayfever and pollution. Over the years my skin has become increasingly sensitive so this month I'm doing as much as possible to protect it. As well as sensitivity my skin can often be prone to dullness and blackheads around my nose and cheeks.

I'm a bit of a skincare obsessive and love stocking up. For all natural ingredients I love LUSH and Nivea is also by far one of my favourite brands for when my skin is flaring up. I have recently discovered Chemist4U which sells high-street products at value prices. I recently wrote about my love of supermarket beauty and this is no different, it's great for stocking up on essentials.

Here are some of the products I've been loving this month...

Barcelona Hotspots

One of my favourite holiday hotspots has been Barcelona for a number of reasons -it's quick and easy to get to, the food is delicious and it has the combination of both city and beach culture.

Without a doubt, one of Barcelona's top attractions is admiring the city's architecture and the works of Antoni Gaudí.The most famous are the Sagrada Família, Park Güell, and La Pedrera.
