March Favourites

 

Nair Silky Sensations- Not very glamorous I know but I have been loving this product this month. It works brilliantly and does exactly what it says it does! 

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum - I dug this out of my collection this month as my usual work foundation had run out, and I am so glad I did. It gives a gorgeous natural look and is a great everyday foundation.

Percy & Reed No Oil Volumising Oil  - As you all know, I'm sure, this came free with Glamour magazine and I am really glad I picked it up. I was worried it might leave my hair a little greasy but it doesn't at all. It gives me a really nice volume in my hair and a really nice shine.

Everything Balm - This has been my savior this month! I have had various viral infections and colds and I couldn't have gotten through this month with out this product! I have been applying it to my lips and nose mainly and keeps them so lovely and soft, despite the constant blowing my nose and not being able to breath out it. I have been layering this on right before I go to bed.

Trilogy Age Proof Nourishing Night Cream - This is a great cream, I can put it on at night with my skin in a terrible state and wake up in the morning with it all lovely and refreshed looking! I'm not a massive fan of the smell of it but it disappears after a while so not a problem.

Dainty Doll Blusher in You Are My Sunshine - I have seen a lot of people blogging about this blusher recently and I have been loving it! It is supposed to be a dupe for NARS Orgasm but I have never tried it so I can't say if it is or not. It is a gorgeous peachy pinky blush with gold through it and while be a firm favourite in my collection for a long time.

Some of my favourite brown eyeshadows!

I am not the most adventurous when it comes to doing my make up really. I tend to stick to the same eye colours.... browns!!

I have managed to build up quite a collection of different brown eyeshadows.

Browns are just such and easy colour to wear, I think. I don't have to make too much effort and my eyeshadow looks great.

I do try to do different looks and colours but I always go back to my old faithful browns!

Here are some of my favs!

Left to right -

MUA Shade 17, MUA Eye Dust Shade 5,

ELF Butternut (it is the one on the top right hand corner)

MAC Paints Untitled

The 2 MUA products are my current go to shadows, I use them all the time. I put shade 17 all over my lid and then blend the eye dust into the crease. It creates a really natural everyday look.

I think for the price that MUA are great products!

Over my UDPP they both last all day without creasing and look just as great when I go to take them off as they do when I put them on.

Do you have a favourite colour for your eyes??

May Favourites

Hiya

This is my first favourites post that I've done but I love reading them so I thought I would give it a go. It's great finding out what other people like and use all the time. I can't believe it's June already though! The year is going so fast.

Natural Collection Moisture Shine Lipstick in Apple Blossom - I love this lipstick just now! I wear it every day and find it doesn't dry my lips out. I wear it on it's own or sometimes add a lipgloss over the top for a bit of colour. I've been wearing it with my Sleek Pout Polish in Pink Cadillac. 

Banana Republic Alabaster Eau De Parfum - I cant get enough of this fragrance. I got it free with a voucher that was in Grazia magazine and I love love love it! The only thing I don't like about this is the bottle that it comes in. Cause it's only a little bottle it doesn't have a spray on it. Ive decanted some of it though into an atomizer that i had so that makes it much easier to apply. Once this one runs out I think I'm definitely going to have to buy the bigger version!

Holland & Barrett Skin, Hair and Nails Formula - I started taking these about a month and a half ago because I wanted something that was going to help my hair grow. Now I cant say that my hair's grow loads but I definitely think it's a lot more healthy looking. I've had complements on how shiny it looks these days! My nails are also a lot lot stronger than they were before I took them. They would always break and split but since taking these they're in great condition. I'm just about finished my second bottle of these and I will definitely be getting more.

Soap and Glory Heel Genius - This is a pretty new purchase but it has become a firm favourite! This product is amazing! I put it on for one night and when I woke up the next morning my hard skin had all but disappeared.

Nails Inc.Candy Nail Polish - This is one of the nail polishes that cam free with InStyle magazine and I've been wearing it loads since I got it. I think it's a really nice summery colour and it lasts really well.

Benefit Sugarbomb - I got this when it first came out and never really used it but I've re-discovered it over the past month and I really like using it. I tend to use it to contour, there is some shimmer in it but it's really really fine so I think you can get away with it. You can also use it all over your face as a finishing powder/bronzer plus I love the smell of it!

Natural Collection Tinted Moisturiser in Fair - I've been using this product since the weather's been a bit better cause I don't really want anything too heavy on my face. It gives me a really nice colour and coverage. I only need to use a tiny amount so it's going to last me ages! It's great value for money too as it was part of the 3 for £5 offer in Boots.

So that's my May favourites! Hope you enjoyed!
