Leesha Loves #2

Well I'm back with my second Leesha Loves posts and

the first post of 2014!! Happy new year everyone!

I was all ready to do a 2013 favourites post today and then realised that some of the things I wanted to put in it are at uni so I will have to get that done as soon as I get back! 

The 5 things I have been loving this week are...

1. Catching up with friends

Its been really nice this week to see my friends, especially now my best friend Chloe is back from her holiday. She leaves for the Navy in March so I'm trying to see her as much as I can before she goes! Can't believe it. We've been friends since we were about 4 and now she's off to the Navy. I'm so proud of her! Even if I will miss her like crazy!

2. Soft Hands

My hands absolutely hate winter. Every year I use different soap and different hand cream and nothing ever works no matter how much I spend! Soap and Glory Hand Food has always been one of those products that I tried once, probably when I didn't need it, figured it probably wasn't worth the hype and forgot about it soon after. However, it recently re-entered my life in a gift set that I got for christmas and I am so glad! It's fixing my hands and they smell amazing now too! Can't believe I ever forgot about it!

3. Feeling Fresh

Since I've been using my Nutribullet I have felt so much more healthy. Even just increasing the amount of fruit I eat and drinking more water has really helped and I feel a lot more alert and ready to face the day instead of feeling sluggish and tired all the time. 

4. Me Time

I only have a shower at uni and even at home I mostly just jump in the shower rather than having a bath.This week I decided to just scrap everything I had to do one evening and have a really nice, relaxing bath. I used Lush Products and tried out the James Brown Intense Treatment which I will be reviewing this week! It was nice to take some time out!

5. Straight(er) Hair!

My hair is currently at that stage where it wants to be long more than anything but it's not quite there. In fact, it's quite short. My hair is naturally straight but when it's growing it tends to flick out in the most random places and leave me looking like a bit of a Hairspray reject. My Dad bought my Mum the Nicky Clarke Frizz Control Styler for Christmas and although I wouldn't usually buy something like that for myself, the hot brush has really helped to tame my flicks! I also really like the straightening attachment because I feel like there's less direct heat that straighteners, especially when I don't really need them! 

I would love it if you could leave a comment and let me know even just 1 thing that you have been loving this week!

2013 In Pictures!

I thought I'd write a quick post with 12 memories of 2013! They're all from Instagram so since I don't instagram everything, not all of these are my 'best' memories, just some of my favourites!

1. SNOW SNOW SNOW!! Last January I woke up to this view out of my bedroom window! It finally stopped snowing in April and I never got bored of it!

2.  I bought my tortoise Eliot early February and I love him to bits! He's such a cool pet and I really miss him when I'm at uni!

3. My baby cousin Ava was born! She's such a character and I can't believe how much she's grown up over the year! 

4. My lovely boyfriend bought me a matching Pandora ring and charm for my 19th birthday. I love the colour of them and haven't taken them off since!

5. Me and my boyfriend had a lovely day out near where we live, playing mini golf and walking down the beach with an ice cream!

6. This is the most memorable lunch I have ever had! It was so yummy!!

7. The amazing pancakes I had at the pancake house when myself, my boyfriend and our 2 friends went to Center Parcs over the summer! 

8. Finding out that I had a place at Edge Hill University was definitely memorable! Especially since I hadn't slept the night before!!

9. Trying to organise my makeup took a lot longer than I thought! Was sat staring at this for quite some time!

10. I got glasses and met up with friends to say goodbye before I started uni!

11. I rediscovered my love for drawing during a boring saturday at uni

12. I met some absolutely amazing people at uni that I hope I will always stay in touch with. We've had some great nights since september!

What are your best memories of 2013? Drop me a comment and let me know!
