What better way to end the year than to base my last post on my monthly favourites. So here are the things that I enjoyed the most during December. HAPPY NEW YEAR. What are your plans for tonight? Hope you have a good one.

Coconut & Sweet Almond Shampoo- Superdrug// I once read that you should invest more time and money into a good conditioner rather than a shampoo, so I didn't feel too sorry for my hair when I picked up this Coconut and Sweet Almond shampoo from Superdrug for just 98p. I'll be honest, it's probably one of the sweetest smelling shampoos I've used in a long time but it leaves my hair feeling super soft which is a bonus.
Banana Conditioner- The Body Shop// My lovely sister gifted me this conditioner for my birthday and I'm not sure how I survived without it before. Not only does it smell incredibly delicious but I've found that my hair feels a lot stronger and healthier after I leave it in for about 5 minutes. I'd definitely recommend this.
Schwarzkopf Beach Matt Spray- Boots// During my GCSE days, I discovered back combing and have damaged my hair all in the name of having big, messy hair. I'd previously used Bumble & Bumble's salt hair spray and loved that effortless, tousled look that it gave and I'm happy to say that this Schwarzkopf number is as good as the Bumble & Bumble sprays. I usually leave it in my hair when it's about 80% dry and then I give it a little blow dry and just simply run my fingers through my hair. That's all.No Drought Dry Shampoo- Lush// I remember using my talc powders to get rid of greasy patches on my hair before the aerosol dry shampoos came out. I feel like I'm going back in time by using this but you know you're not going to be disappointed when it's a Lush product. I'll be honest, it does get messy and I'd recommend that you use it before getting changed but the results are so much more better than the aerosol dry shampoos. They leave a more matte texture and you genuinely feel like you've just washed your hair. Trust me.
Lip Balm- Carmex// I have the most terrible habit of picking my chapped lips which sends Jay crazy and leaves me with sore and bloody lips. I'd always heard people rave on about Carmex products and I can understand why now. My lips feel so much softer and at just £2, I may need to stock up on more Carmex products.
Netflix- I'd used LoveFilm about a year ago and although I was impressed with the variety of films that they had, the only downside was that a lot of the films had to be rented. Whereas with Netflix you can instantly stream them hence why I've already watched twenty features since signing up at the end of November. Talk about taking advantage of the free month trial, eh?
Orange Is The New Black- After 'Breaking Bad' finished this year, I kept looking for new shows to watch and after hearing positive reviews about 'Orange is The New Black' I decided to give it a go and I don't regret the decision. It's a pretty easy watch and 'Breaking Bad' and 'The Sopranos' still remain to be two of the best TV shows that I have ever watched but with season two coming out in the new year, I hope that 'Orange is the new black' will soon become another favourite of mine.
