5 things to do in Ibiza

Ibiza: The Party Island, immortalized in music and pop culture history, where no-one ever sleeps and where lifetime memories are made. It's the kind of place worth visiting at least once in your life, and if you do, here's my list of five things not to be missed...

1. Cocktails at Ocean Beach Club

Ocean Beach Club is the place to be - if you're into your fancy cocktails and dressing up Ibiza-style, hire a lounger and take advantage of the VIP treatment here, sunning yourself by the pool all day long to the sounds of renowned DJs such as Hed Kandi. Entertainment comes in many forms - on Hed Kandi Mondays you can catch Lovely Laura playing her saxophone from a floating flower platform. Not to be missed.

2. Visit at least one super club

Sure, clubbing isn't everyone's cup of tea, but you're in Ibiza! Let loose and experience the super clubs that DEFINE the clubbers' experience. Rave, baby!

3. Zoo Project

If you haven't heard of Zoo Project - it's essentially a great big hippy festival set in an abandoned zoo, featuring belly dancers, acrobats, DJs, yoga and meditation, and all things vegan and sustainable. (Not to mention massive pitchers of sangria and BBQ food) Half the fun of Zoo Project is getting dressed up to resemble an animal (people achieve this with varying levels of effort and success) so get your glitter on and check it out.

4. A bar crawl in the West End

This crowded side street full of tiny bars is a mile away from the luxury on offer on the Sunset Strip. If you're after a night of great atmosphere, cheap drinks and the best place to meet people, make the West End your starting point.

4. Watch the sunset at Cafe Mambo

If you do one classic 'Ibiza' thing while you're here - this should be it! The vibe at Cafe Mambo is unlike anything else- quintessentially Ibiza, providing the perfect soundtrack to the sun setting over the ocean as you sip on champagne mojitos!

Monthly favourites: May

Since we're now quite a fair way into June, I thought I better get a move on with my May favourites! See what I've been loving this month...

Skincare, make-up and hair care

Lush  Celestial moisturiser - This smells amazing! It's lightweight but so hydrating, feels amazing on the skin. Perfect for day or night, and for dry skin. LOVE.

L'Oreal Infallible matte foundation - Already a cult hit with beauty bloggers, this foundation is perfect. I've used NARS Sheer Glow in the past and I find this a very good dupe - even though it's a matte finish, it still gives you a lovely glow and doesn't feel tight or heavy on the skin.

Origins Drink Up Intensive overnight mask - I've been using this about twice a week, just before I go to bed. The difference it's made to my skin is amazing - I've been waking up feeling hydrated and refreshed! I don't know if it's this but my skin's been looking a lot brighter and clearer recently, too.

Garnier Ultimate Blends Honey Treasures shampoo and conditioner - smells amazing, and leaves my hair lovely and soft. The conditioner in particular is my favourite.

Clarins Radiance-Plus Golden Glow Booster - Another cult beauty hit of this year, I was desperate to try it out for myself. I am so, so pleased with the results. I've been using it two to three times a week, putting around two drops into my regular moisturiser. I already feel like I have a pretty good tan on my face! I love the sun kissed look, but if you only wanted a subtle glow you could use even less.

Lip loves

Revlon Lip Butter in Peach Parfait - I am still absolutely in love with these. The formula is amazing and hydrating on the lips, with a gorgeous glossy colour pay-off. This colour, peach parfait, is ideal for Spring and really brightens the complexion.

Revlon Ultra HD lipstick in Hydrangea - I love a bright pink lip for Spring, and this one doesn't disappoint! Really long lasting, too.
