PRETTY YOUNG THING

So incase I haven't mentioned it enough haha i'm going to Florida in a few days! I've started packing because i've got work pretty much every day until we go. I've picked out my outfits, i've tried not to pack too much because I want to buy a few things whilst i'm in the US.
I thought i'd show you a few of my holiday essentials. Most of the clothing/ accessories are from Primark as I didn't wanna spend loads on new things.

First up my Bikinis, normally i don't care about my bikinis I tend to pick up cheap ones in primark but since finding out I was wearing the wrong bra size I decided to get a couple of decent bikini's that actually fit and support me. Were going to be visiting the waterparks in florida so that support is going to be really important. First up I picked this blue plunge style from Cleo by Panache, its gorgeous!  I love the colour and it looks great on! I also picked out the watermelon bikini by Freya. I think this is such a cute holiday pattern!

I love these sliders from Primark, they look so comfy. I like the shimmery gold/ silver effect and they were only £4! I also picked up the black sandals from primark. They are just a nice classy pair of sandals that I'll be able to wear with any outfit, making them a really good pair of shoes to bring along.

I picked up a few pairs of shorts from Primark, including this blue and white patterned pair. I normally wear alot of skirts and dresses on holiday but because were going to the theme parks I think i'm gonna need shorts so i'm comfy on the rides and not flashing anyone.

I love stripes and when I was taking photos for this post I noticed theres so many stripes in my case. I love this stripe toiletries bag from Primark it was such a great buy! I have a few stripey tops that I will be able to wear on the days and the nights and of course a pair of £1 flip flops from primark

I've got the 50+ suncream packed so heres a couple of products i'm taking along. I'm going to bring along my Lee Stafford Beach Blondes* shampoo and conditioner to stop those brassy tones coming though whilst i'm away. I find the sun tends to lighten my hair and turn it slightly yellow. I've packed my Urban Decay B6 Prep Spray, to reduce redness and to reduce pores and oil. I picked up this Dr Organic Aloe Gel from Holland and Barrett aswell, I usually just pick up a cheap After Sun but I really want to keep my skin hydrated and this Aloe Gel should cool the skin down after a long day in the sun.

As you may have guessed i'm going on holiday again, well i'm actually on holiday right now! I come home tomorrow but I thought i'd share the suncare that I have taken to Gran Canaria with me.

Piz Buin spf 15  sun spray- This is one of my favourite sun creams, it rubs in so easy. The spray bottle makes its easy to apply. It dries very fast and gives a lovely even tan. I've used this for a few years and I always bring a bottle on holiday with me

La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL range - I've kindly been sent the Anthelios XL range to try on holiday, I've seen amazing reviews about this suncare range and seen magazines rave on and on so I needed to try it out for myself. I have never ever used factor 50 but I burnt a little last time I went away and I was in so much pain so i'd rather wear a higher factor. The oil smells lovely and rubs into the skin very quick and dry, its not greasy or oily. The stick dries very quick aswell and I've used sun sticks before that tend to sit on the skin but this doesn't, there's no residue left on the skin it dries in really well. The fluid is so light, I think it would be perfect for the face when you want that extra protection but you don't want a thick layer of cream on your face.

Hawaiian Tropic Face spf30- I brought this on holiday with me earlier in the year and found it worked very well on my face. I think its a nice size bottle to pop in your bag and I actually used it on some sensitive areas. As its designed for the face its more sensitive so it worked well on some areas that I had burnt previously.

Malibu Dry Oil - I haven't used this oil before but I like to bring an oil away aswell, I normally only use an oil on the last few days of my holiday once my skin has got used to the sun and I have a nice base. I'm not sure if I will use this as I said above I burnt a little last time we went away so I want to be more carefull however suncream is expensive on holiday so I'd rather just bring it along even if I don't use it.
