♥ June Favourites
July 02, 2017
June, where have you gone? I feel like we've just entered this month and we're already on to the next! I'm guessing you know how this post is going to go, I have things that I have been enjoying this month and I'm going to share them with you!

If you have read my post regarding my LUSH Kitchen favourite products, you will have seen these two black tubs. A couple of weeks ago the LUSH Kitchen held a public vote for Lushies to vote for their favourite scent that they would like to see in new formats, for example Brightside was a scent that was only available in the format of a bubble bar, so they created a body lotion and a solid perfume, that carries the same scent. As soon as it was announced that these products would be available, I knew I needed the Calacas tub as it is one of my favourite scents. I bought the Brightside because it was still available when I made my online order and I love the scent, so I knew I'd like the lotion. These tubs will last me forever, as 240g of body lotion is a lot! The consistency of these lotions is rather thin, so I find they are perfect for using in the summer months as they don't feel heavy on your skin or leave you feeling sticky. If you like LUSH and you like tangy citrus scents and can get your hands on either one of these tubs, I strongly suggest! If you'd like a bit more information on the scents, you can read my description of them in this blog post.

If you haven't heard of Logan and Jake Paul, where have you been for the last couple of months? I am obsessed with YouTube, and I have been for a good few years now. I usually stick to the same YouTubers and I have done for the past few years, with maybe the addition of a couple that I watch regularly. Some of the vloggers that watch, I have been watching for years, I've seen them move out of their family homes and stand on their own two feet, I've seen them have children, literally multiple children! I never really find a new YouTuber and start watching them all the time, so I was surprised when I came across the Paul brothers and actually really liked their videos. Logan and Jake got big on a social media platform called Vine, which has since closed for good. They both made YouTube channels and have become two of the fastest growing channels in YouTube history. Firstly, we have Logan , who is a daily vlogger from Ohio living in LA. Logan vlogs his daily life, has an ongoing prank war with his brother and is always doing super ridiculous things on a daily basis. Logan is hilarious, you can guarantee that any video of his that you watch will make you laugh as he doesn't take himself too seriously and really makes an effort to ensure that his vlog is full of content to keep his viewers watching. Jake, Logans younger brother, is just as funny. Jake is obviously also from Ohio and also made the big move to LA. Jake lives with a few other YouTubers who come together for the channel Team 10. Jake also daily vlogs and is an actor, with a reoccurring role in a Disney television show. Together, I think the Paul brothers are two of the best YouTubers that have, Logan at this current moment has 6.7 million subscribers and Jake has 7.2 million subscribers. This will most likely change at the time of publication as Jakes subscribe sount has grown by 6.1 millon in 6 months and his view count currently sits at 1.036 billion. Logan's stats aren't too far different either, with his subscriber count growing by 5.1 million in just six months and his view count being 772 million.To have this much success on YouTube in such a short space of time is unheard of. When you look at some of the other YouTubers like Joe Sugg (ThatcherJoe) who has been on YouTube since late 2011 and only just hit 8 million subscribers, it really puts it into comparison how much these two have blown up. In my opinion, I think they deserve it, especially Logan. You can tell he works hard to give creative and funny content to his viewers and he does the job well!

I have been following Pretty Little Liars since 2011. That's six whole years of watching a television show, waiting for the new season to come out, trying to work out who A is and falling in love with the characters and story lines. I don't think I've ever followed a show for so long and still been so excited and interested in the show six years later. If you haven't watched Pretty Little Liars, I strongly suggest you do! This show really grabs you and pulls you in to the relationships and families of the characters. You really root for relationships to happen and you genuinely feel sad when characters die. The story that started all the way back in 2010 began with five girls, Alison, Hanna, Aria, Emily and Spencer, who had been the best of friends at school until one night, Alison disappears. A year later the four remaining girls have drifted apart and there is still no information as to what happened to Alison that night. The four girls start to receive texts, taunting the girls with secrets from their pasts, from an unknown number, signed 'A' and they start to believe that Alison may not be dead like everybody thinks she is, as only she knew the information that they are being teased with. The show takes some twists and turns over seven seasons. A lot of people die, a lot of text messages are sent and a lot of scary shit happens to the 'liars' as they are dubbed. I am currently writing this blog post before the last episode is aired, so I do not currently know who AD is and I do not know how this story is going to end. I am heartbroken that this show is coming to a stop. After waiting for a new episode to pop up on Netflix every Wednesday, I'm already starting to feel that blank gap inside myself that I just need to fill with something. This is the same way that I felt when I viewed the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 and after I watched the last episodes of Desperate Housewives and Prison Break. I honestly believe that a television show can become part of your life, you plan you life around these shows or record them to ensure you don't miss a thing! I think I'll write a whole blog post dedicated to Pretty Little Liars once I've seen the final episode, as it's been such a huge part of my life for the last six years, I think it deserves it. I just really hope the ending is perfect, and I hope all the couples get together and stay together! #Spoby, #Haleb, #Ezria & #Emison for life!
