My October Favourites

amomentwithfranca · 9 November 2015 · 21 Comments

It is already November so it is now time for my October Favourites! If you haven’t read my September Favourites check the link here.

As usual I have chosen the first 4 products related to me and the last products (2 toiletry bags) related to my girls. In the video I have explained each of the products, although for the first two I thought some additional information would be useful, so please see this below. I have then listed the remaining 3 items.

1.MARIA NILA – LUMINOUS COLOUR MASQUE

My Amazon subscription for my Dove Intense Repair 60 seconds shot was suddenly stopped by Amazon (not sure why which is a shame) so I was in the need to find something to replace it. I then saw that I had this Maria Nila Masque that I got from my September Glossybox so I decided to give it a go. I was so pleased to find out that this masque was really good! It really makes my hair feel soft and healthy and makes a difference after applying it. I’m pleased I tried it because now I have a replacement to the Dove intense repair shot!!

2. GLOSSYBOX EXCLUSIVE TRAVEL POUCH

This was a travel pouch I got from my July Glossybox. I always like it since the moment I received it but I never thought it was going to be so useful, as now I put all the make up that I need in it when I go away. It doesn’t look like you could fit a lot in it but I can put all my make up there perfectly plus I love the fact that it’s transparent. Also the design is lovely! Unfortunately it is not a product that you can buy but I wanted to mention about it because I really love it, and it may inspire you to find something similar!!!

3. NAOBAY CALMING FACE TONER 200ML FROM NAOBAY

4. AUSSIE MIRACLE MOIST SHAMPOO 300ML  and AUSSIE 3 MINUTE MIRACLE 250ML DEEP CONDITIONING TREATMENT COLOUR 

5. KIDS COTTON WASH BAG – PINK PIGS FROM TRAVELSTOCK  and KIDS COTTON WASH BACK – TURTLES FROM TRAVELSTOCK 

Have you tried any of the products I have mentioned above? If yes which one? Will you try any of the ones you don’t have? What are your favourite products for September? Leave me a comment below as I would love to hear from you. 

Thanks for stopping by,

Love you all ❤️

Franca  💋

    Fab products! I’ve never heard of the Dove intensive shot but it sounds fab, what a shame it’s stopped, though think I might try the other one as I really don’t look after my hair enough. Thanks for linking up to Marvellous Mondays. Kaye xo #MarvMondays

    I love all Aussie products as they smell AMAZING. Lots of brilliant products. My hair is in need of some TLC and the hair masque sounds like it would be perfect.x

    I’m so with you on the Aussie Miracle Moist shampoo and the 3 minute miracle conditioner. I use the 3 minute miracle one before going to the office twice a week – it makes my hair really soft and easy to style (and makes up for the general neglect my hair endures the rest of the week!)

    I haven’t tried most of them, actually, but the Aussie Miracle Moist shampoo used with the Aussie 3 minute miracle was always how I used to save my hair when I used to swim regularly! #parentingpicks

    I swear by Aussie!! They are so great. My hair used to be super frizzy and now it’s always sleek. I love the little travel bags too. I love little things like this to take away and organise your products. They’re such cute little designs. x

    I love toiletry bags and those ones for the girls are so cute! I’d be very tempted to get some for mine when they are old enough to have more than a tooth brush and flannel. If they are like me that won’t be long! 🙂 #parentingpicks

    I adore the Aussie miracle moist line and the 3 minute miracle. I forgot about them for a while as I was trying new things but just last week I went out and repurchased them 🙂 #justanotherlinky

    Wow so sorry this comment is late! I watched your video ages ago and thought I had commented! (my bad!) Love your October Favourites – especially the cute wash bags for the children, I love the designs on them. I think I need to try the Maria Nila Masque not just because its my name but I tend to suffer from dry ends in my hair! 😉
