Friday Favorites!

And we're back for another friday favorites post, which means another week has come and gone! Cha ching! Friday Favorites are quickly becoming my favorite way to wrap up a school week, I get to blab about some random things that make me happy! Yay! Let's jump right in!

Skincare

I've been loving the Philosophy When Hope Is Not Enough Replenishing Oil this week. I've had this little bottle for a while but I've recently picked it up again. After removing my makeup at night, I put a few drops on my hand and rub this all over my face. Since I have combo/oily skin, you'd think that putting an oil on my face wouldn't be the best idea, right? Wrong! It's so light and sinks into the skin right away, and it doesn't make me look shiny or anything! On the Philosophy website, it says that "our lightweight oil hydrates dry skin, while helping to protect it against environmental attack. the nurturing formula helps maintain skin's elasticity." 
I don't have dry skin, as stated above, and I don't exactly know what elasticity is, but this oil makes my face feel really nice and I like it.

Books
Last night, after on-and-off reading since September, I finished Jk Rowlings The Casual Vacancy. A full book review will be coming sometime next week, but I really liked it. Parts 1-3 were really interesting, parts 4-6 were meh, but the last part (7, I think) was so good and talk about a plot twist holy crap! But yes, a full review will be coming soon!

Music
Rock me by One Direction. Their entire album has been leaked (because their management team are absolute idiots and I'm pretty sure they're the spawns of satan) and Rock me is probably my favorite song, next to They Don't Know About Us for obvious shipper reasons. This song is just so catchy and amazing and so not like One Direction that it makes me happy. I definitely recommend checking it out, yes sir. 
I've also been loving Zac Brown Band, which is really weird as I don't often listen to country. But it was recommended by a friend and, he was right, they're amazing. The songs I have are Whatever It Is and Goodbye In Her Eyes and they're really lovely. 

Perfume
Unbreakable by Khloe and Lamar has been my staple fall scent since last year and it's still going strong. It's a really musky, unisex fragrance that I'd get my boyfriend if I had one (cue HAHAHAHAHA's here). Fragrantica describes it as "The composition opens with notes of Italian bergamot, sparkling clementine, Asian saffron and green apple. The heart includes a bouquet of African Geranium, jasmine, lily of the valley and red fruit, lying on the base of dark chocolate, tonka bean, vanilla and Texas cedar wood."
Sure, let's go with that. It's delicious either way.

That about wraps it up for this weeks Friday Favorites! I hope you all had an amazing week, and have an amazing weekend!


Until next time,
Ashley
