April Favourites ❤

I can't believe it's the end of April already, 

this month has flown by.

I've really enjoyed this month, I hope you have too, if not I hope 

May is better.

Here's what I've been loving this month.

'Dangerous Woman' by Ariana Grande

This is Ariana Grande's latest single from her new album of the same name and it is amazing. I do think this is her best single yet. It's a midtempo pop and R&B song with an arena rock chorus and a guitar solo during its bridge. Lyrically, Dangerous Woman explores the theme of empowerment and confidence in a relationship and how a partner can bring a different side out to a woman. In the music video, Ariana proves she isn't shy by showing off her 'dangerous' side.

The Huntsman: Winter's War

When I first watched Snow White and the Huntsman I thought it was a great film. I loved the twist on the classic fairy tale story where, instead of the Huntsman taking Snow White into the woods to kill her on the Evil Queen's orders, he teams up with the young princess and the two work together to defeat the Evil Queen. Winter's War is a prequel/sequel and it's really good. In the first film, we know that the Huntsman is a widow and in this film, we see how the Huntsman met his wife and how she died. The majority of the film is set after Snow White defeated the Evil Queen, Ravenna (Charlize Theron), however she doesn't make an appearence. This film's main focus is on the Huntsman trying to find and retrieve the Magic Mirror before Ravenna's sister, the Ice Queen, Freya, can get her hands on it.

10 Cloverfield Lane

In 2008, Cloverfield showed the destruction of New York and focused on several citizens trying to survive this monstrous attack. By using shaky cam-footage, the audience felt like they were part of the action. Now, producer J.J. Abrams has brought us the sequel, 10 Cloverfield Lane. However, he describes it as more of a 'blood relative' than a sequel as none of the characters from the previous film are in this and the director, Dan Trachtenberg, has decided to use a steady camera. The film focuses on Michelle (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) who, after surviving a car crash, wakes up in a bunker where she meets Howard (John Goodman) who tells her that he saved her and that the outside world is 'contaminated'. Of course, she doesn't believe this until she tries to escape and gets an glance at what the outside world has become. Now, she, Howard and Emmett (John Gallagher Jr.), have to live together and wait until this apocalyptic event is over. However, Michelle is suspicious of Howard. The film is full of tension throughout and Goodman's Howard is really creepy. When Michelle doesn't abide by his 'rules' he gets angry. The ending is brilliant too and full of action. I definitely think there are more films to come. If you'd like to read my full review, click here.

The Comforter shower cream from Lush

I love Lush because their products are vegetarian/vegan and they don't test on animals. They even have their own campaign to stop animal testing. Not only that, their products are really good. They're best known for their variety of bath bombs and other bathroom products including shower creams and gels, bubble bars, ect. Recently, I went to Lush and I bought 'The Comforter' shower cream. I would say that the smell is very sweet like the Snow Fair shower gel, which is only available during November/December. After using this, my skin felt very smooth and I can definitely say this is my favourite Lush shower cream.

Granny Takes A Dip bubble bar from Lush

I love Lush's bubble bars as they last for a really long time. You break small pieces of the bar and hold it under a running tap to create bubbles. I've never tried this bar before and it smells really nice and I love the colours. It's my favourite bubble bar. 

Thank you for reading my blog, I hope you liked it. ❤️
