I can't believe March has been and gone already for 2016. It's crazy how fast this year is going. For March I didn't have too many beauty related favourites - though rest assured I still had plenty of other favourites for the month.
Beauty
I'm not typically a soap person, and tend to favour shower gels. But over the past month or so, I have been using the Porridge Soap from Lush and having been loving it. The soap is creamy, rich, lathers nicely and the pinhead oatmeal helps to exfoliate. The only downside is the pinhead oatmeal will get all over your shower floor...but trust me it is still worth it.
A while back when Priceline had one of their 40% of haircare products, I purchased this Charles Worthington Style Setter Dry Shampoo and only recently pulled it out of the cupboard to try. This dry shampoo is a great all-rounder. I not only reach for it when I need to refresh my hair, but also to add volume and texture when I'm are styling my hair. I find it is light weight, absorbs oil well and virtually unnoticeable once it has been worked through my hair. The scent is pleasant and subtle, and is not at all overwhelming - which is another plus in my books. It comes it two sizes, 150 ml and 50 ml travel size.
I finally got around to watching The Intern. I literally laughed my head off throughout the entire movie - it is definitely worth watching. Plus can you really go wrong with a movie that has both Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway?! The movie is about a 70 year old widower Ben Whittaker (played by Robert De Niro) who takes the opportunity to be a senior intern at an online fashion website run by Jules Ostin (who is played by Anne Hathaway).
I had been wanting to see this movie for a while now (after first seeing the trailer in October 2015). I was not disappointed. The movie is a historical drama set in the Cold War era and is inspired by true events. Tom Hanks plays James Donovan, an American insurance lawyer, who is asked to defend a Soviet spy in court and ends up facilitating an exchange between the Soviet spy and a captured American spy plane pilot...
I may have re-watched seasons 1 through to 6 of ER in March. Oops. I know there are more seasons, but we only have seasons 1 - 6 at home so far. I had kind of forgotten how much I like the series and quickly became hooked again. The show is a fictional medical drama which is set in Chicago and focuses on the lives of the doctors and nurses of the emergency room at the County General Hospital.
So admittedly, this was sitting on our bookshelf for a while, waiting for me to read. I had heard mixed reviews of the book previously and wasn't sure if I would enjoy it. But I was pleasantly surprised. I was sad when I finished the book, because I loved it so much. The book is about the small town of Pagford and focuses on the town after the sudden death of parish councillor Barry Fairbrother...
