My Favourites ✔ : Most Repurchase Items

HOLA

My Favourites (1)

I hope everybody is doing well. It's been incredibly hot lately 🔥, don't forget to stay hydrated ! If you didn't know this already, I moved to Auckland in December last year into my new home. It was overwhelming at first, trying to fit in with the hustle & bustle of the city life, but your girl got through it.

Even though my life-style has been different, there are a few things I keep finding myself going back to. Since I got a pretty good feedback on the last favourite post I did back in October 2015, I thought I'll start doing a 'My Favourite Series'. This way, I can share with you all my favourite products, restaurants, make up, and more.

Today I'm going to start with some items which I have repurchased a lot, from the OG to my new found favourites. I will also let you know why I like each item and rate them from 1-10 (10 being the best, of course).

Palmolive Naturals Body Wash 

(Sea Minerals with Moisture Beads)

- I hate the slippery feeling some body wash leaves on my skin after shower.

I like to feel fresh and squeykly clean, and this body wash gives me just that. It freshen me up, smells so amazing and also 100% soap free.

✾ Cons: It's not the best at keeping my skin moisturised, especially in winter.

Dior Addict Lip Glow

- If you have read  My Foundation Routine

post, I have included this product before. It's definitely one of my all time favourite. 

I remember using it the first time when I was 14, and it totally changed my life ! I have to admit, there are times I went off and tried different brands of lip balm, which leave me with nothing but guilty feeling and chapped lips 😠. I have tried a few products from Dior Addict range and they are great too. 

This product in particular literally keeps my lips moisturised for over 6 hours. According to Dior , 'Lip Glow is the first colour reviver balm by Dior combining the comfort of a balm with a natural flush of custom colour'. For me, it's great to add some subtle shine and colour when you are wearing minimal to no make up. As well as, when you are wearing a full face make up, since it adds a hint of colour that goes well with every look.

P.S. Back when I first used it, they only had one colour. Now they have 9 shades and 3 different finishes. My favs are 001 and 004 Coral. 

✾ Cons: If you are on a budget, it can be rather pricey.

King Island Coconut Water

- Literally the only brand of coconut water on the market in New Zealand that tastes like the actual fresh coconut water. 

Apart from my daily 8 glasses of H2O, coconut water is life ! Fortunately, had been living in Thailand for 14 years, I had easy access to fresh coconut pretty much whenever I want. 

Over the years, I have tried so many brand of so called 'coconut water' but they just never taste like the real deal. Most of them just taste like normal water with additive flavours and fragrances. Then I found King Island 100% coconut water and 
I just love it ! 

✾ Cons: It is only available in selective stores. I can only find it at New World supermarket.

Spotify Premium

- Does this even need an explanation ? I mean if you don't use Spotify or haven't upgraded already, then what are you doing !? 

I was pretty happy using free Spotify back in '14, until one of my friend was going on about how good the premium was. So I gave it a try and before I know it, there's no going back. I don't want to waste my time listening to ads while I try to enjoy the beats during workouts. My favourite playlists at the moment are RapCavier, MellowStyle and Old school hip hop and R&B. Go premium or go home ! 

✾ Cons: As many songs as the app has to offers, not every single songs are available there.

Alison's Pantry - Vege Chips

- This is a new found favourite product of mine. It's one of those products you didn't think you need, but now you can't live without. 

I found it randomly at my local New World and thought I'd give it a try. I mean I don't like vegetables very much, but I know I need to add some to my diet. I also love chippies, but they are so bad for you 😖 and I always feel terrible for eating it. 

Vege chips are great, they are pretty much a variety of baked vegetables which are lightly seasoned. The seasoning kinda make them taste like regular potato chips, but doesn't overkill the unique tastes. Each vegetable has its own flavour, sweetness, and texture. Who would have thought snacking on veges would be fun, right ? 


I highly encourage you to try them out. They are available at New World, Pak n' Save and other food and health stores. If you follow me on social media, you'd already know hope obsessed I am !

✾ Cons: Be careful, these babies are hella addictive !

If you are still reading this, thank you ! I hope you enjoy all my favourite products. I have a lot more to share with you. 

I would like to give a special shout out to Meredith from Prolife Foods and Alison's Pantry for hooking me up with the biggest bag of vege chips ever ! You are incredible. I'm so grateful and appreciative, so thank you so much ♡

Please remember to spread love and positivity. Be kind to one another. Holiday seasons can be very hectic, so if you are getting a bit frustrated with yourself and those around you, just take a minute to breathe and think about all the positive things/people/experiences in your life and be thankful. 

I'm sending love and good energy to you all & hope you have an amazing day 💖
