January Beauty Favourites!

Hey beaut's!

Yayyy we are finally nearing the end of the longest month everrrrr, anyone else feel like we are on day 70 of January? Usually when I write my favourites posts I always say how the month has whizzed past but wow January has dragged and I'll be glad to see the back of it, atleast it's finally pay day though woohoo.

Anyway I'm going to kick this months favourites off with the PIXI Glow Mist, I love this stuff so much, not only is it great for the skin but it leaves my skin looking so glowy and dewy. I've been using the Glow Mist everyday either before makeup to create a luminous base or if I'm looking slightly too matte after my makeup application I add a spritz or two  because it adds the radiance back into my skin. Arhhh then we have my beautiful Spectrum Mean Girls Makeup Brushes, I got these for Christmas and have used them everyday since, their just the best quality brushes and I mean just look how gorgeous they are! For fragrance I've been obsessed with my Snow'ella Body Mist, it's such a lovely fresh scent perfect for everyday and I even have the mini bottle in my handbag for on the go because I'm that obsessed he he! 

My lippie obsession at the moment is the Too Faced Melted Liquid Lipstick in Chihuahua, it's a beautiful dusty mauve shade which I literally wear everyday at the moment and the formula is just stunning! The PIXI Endless Silky Eye Pen is my new kohl pencil obsession and I'd go as far as saying it's become a holy grail product of mine, I used to think the Rimmel Scandleyes eye pencils where amazing but PIXI's offering throw Rimmel out of the water! I've never known an eye pencil to look the exact same at night as it did after being applied first thing in the morning until now - I don't know how you've done it PIXI but wowza your eye pencils are seriously impressive! My final favourite this month is The Ordinary Foundation, this had so much hype and I manged to knab a bottle from ASOS last year and I've been in love ever since! I have a review HERE if you fancy a nose!

What have you been loving this month beaut's? I'd love to know!

January Beauty Favourites

Hey beaut's!

It's the first monthly favourites of the year! How has the start of 2017 been for you all? I cant quite believe how quick January is whizzing past, it honestly scares me that the months go by so quickly! This month my beauty favourites mainly contains things that I was lucky enough to get for Christmas, I could of made this post an extremely long one as theres so many things I've been loving this month but I some how narrowed it down to a handful!

Firstly I've been obsessed with using my Too Faced Merry Macaroons Palette, my goodness it's such a stunning, good quality eyeshadow palette and it's crammed with shades that are perfect for everyday looks. My most reached for shades are definitely the top row and the 3 shades on the left had side row too, just beautiful! Sticking with the eyes I have fallen in love with Benefit's Roller Lash Mascara, it makes my lashes so long, defined, lifted and curled and doesn't smudge or flake on me at all, it's incredible and wont be leaving my makeup bag anytime soon.

For base makeup I've switched things up quite a bit recently and have fallen in love with my new routine. Firstly I drench my face in the Smashbox Priming Water, this stuff is amazing and not only does it prime the skin but you can use it as a setting spray too, I use it both ways and I've noticed a HUGE improvement with how my base makeup looks and lasts, I will definitely be buying the full size bottle of this very soon. For foundation I've gone back to my trusty MAC Face and Body, I just love how dewy and lightweight this foundation is and you can keep building it up to get the coverage you like. Benefit's Hoola Bronzer has become another makeup bag staple for me since Christmas, it's quite a bold statement for me to say I love a bronzer because I'm super fussy with bronzers but Hoola is gorgeous, it's matte, easy to blend and works with my skin tone really well.

 To blend in my foundation and other base makeup I've been loving my Real Techniques Berlin Brush Set (review HERE) that I picked up in the boxing day sales, I've been getting so much use out of these brushes because the set contains 5 core brushes that can be used in many different ways, my favourite is the buffing brush. Lastly this month I have been obsessed with the Lush Snow Fairy Body Conditioner, I slather this on every night at the moment and in the morning my skin is so soft and smells insanely good, it's like I'm wearing Snow Fairy perfume, mmm!

Hey beaut's!

Its that time again.... Monthly favourites time!!! How has the start of 2016 been for you all? I cant quite believe how quick January is whizzing past, it honestly scares me that the months go by so quickly! Is anyone else not feeling this cold winter weather anymore? Don't get me wrong I loved Autumn and the festive build up but I'm totally over winter now, bring on the Spring, warm sunshine, blue sky's and pretty flowers ha ha. Anywhoo onto what I've been loving this month beauty wise!

Trevor Sorbie Keratin + Argan Magnetic Multi-Wand

I'm kicking things off this month with a hair favourite, the Trevor Sorbie Keratin + Argan Magnetic Multi-Wand! I actually got this curling wand for Christmas from my boyfriends parents and have been obsessed with it ever since, I just love the fact that you get the 3 different attachments to create a multitude of different types of waves and curls and it's so easy to use because you simply just wrap your hair around the wand, I love it!

Collection #BlushAndGlow Palette

I finally got my hands on the Collection #BlushAndGlow Palette a few weeks ago and it hasn't left my makeup bag since, it contains a matte bronzer, matte pink blusher, shimmering pink blusher and a neutral highlighter all of which work amazingly well and blend out beautifully, and it's only £4.99 which is incredible! For some reason in my picture the bronzer looks a lot darker than it actually is but I've been using it everyday to contour and bronze with and the blusher underneath the highlighter has been my go to everyday too.

L'Oreal Lumi Magique Foundation

 I recently got my L'Oreal Lumi Magique Foundation back out of my makeup stash because it's great for dryer skin types and my skin has really been feeling the effects of the colder weather recently. The foundation itself is light infusing which means it gives luminosity to the skin and really adds a beautiful subtle glow. The formula is gorgeous, its very light weight, silky soft, blends into the skin well and provides hydration all day and is generally really lovely and peps your skin up on a gloomy day.

Real Techniques Bold Metals Angled Powder Brush

The Real Techniques Bold Metals Angled Powder Brush has been a firm favourite of mine this month, the bristles are just so full and very soft which makes it the ideal brush for setting my base makeup into place, it picks up powders easily and lightly and blends onto the skin without leaving behind a horrible layer of powder. I've also been using this brush with my Collection bronzer (above), I love a huge brush to bronze with and I find the Angled Powder Brush blends out bronzer an absolute dream leaving me with a nice even glow.

Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel

To be totally honest I've been completely obsessed with all things Lush for the past few months and have been using their bubble bars/bath bombs in every bath I've had, but one thing I've continued to use over and over during January is the Snow Fairy Shower Gel. The Snow Fairy Shower Gel just smells incredible, it literally fills my bathroom with its sweet, bubblegum, candy floss scent and makes my skin smell just as scrummy ha ha. I'm annoyed that I've nearly used mine up because the thought of waiting until Christmas again to get some more is horrible.

Lancôme Grandiose Mascara 

The Lancôme Grandiose Mascara is rather lovely and I've been obsessed with it the past few weeks, it literally creates full, fanned out, separated lashes and I find the brush itself is such a great shape and size for my smaller eyes so it's quite easy and quick to use for me personally. The staying power is on point without any smudging or running and it doesn't clump up what so ever.

Rimmel Exaggerate Lip Liner in East End Snob

Lastly this month I've been in love with this Rimmel lip liner in East End Snob, it's more or less the exact same shade of my MAC Brave Lipstick which is my all time favourite lipstick and the combination of the two is just dreamy. I've been lining and filling in my lips with East End Snob then going over the top with Mac's Brave and then I'm good to go all day, arhhh I love it.

January Beauty Favourites ♥

Hey beaut's!

Finally I'm back doing my beauty monthly favourites!!! It's been a few months since I shared my last beauty favourites so I thought I'd get back on the bandwagon. I cant quite believe how quick January has whizzed past, it honestly scares me that the months go by so quick! Is anyone else not feeling this cold winter weather anymore? Don't get me wrong I love Autumn and the festive build up but I'm totally over winter now, bring on the Spring, warm sunshine, blue sky's ad pretty flowers ha ha.

 Anywhoooo today I thought I would share with you all the makeup and beauty products that I've been loving throughout January, so here goes....

Lush Snow Fairy Shower Gel + Rock Star Soap

To be totally honest I've been completely obsessed with Lush for the past few months and have been using their bubble bars/bath bombs in every bath I've had, but two things I've continued to use over and over during January is their Snow Fairy Shower Gel and Rock Star Soap. The Snow Fairy Shower Gel just smells incredible, it literally fills my bathroom with its sweet, bubblegum, candy floss scent and makes my skin smell just as scrummy ha ha. The Rock Star Soap I have used soooo much but it honestly never goes down, I can see it lasting me ages, I use it mainly to soap up my legs and under my arms before shaving and it works really well and shares that same gorgeous scent as Snow Fairy. Arhh I just love them both so much.

Makeup Revolution Pro Makeup Brushes

A few weeks ago Makeup Revolution finally launched their makeup brushes, this is something I've been waiting eagerly for and I'm sure I'm not alone in saying that. I've been using the brushes constantly  since I've had them and even though I do have my favourites I definitely think this is a collection most should try whether your a beginner or not. I obsessed with the Contour Brush and Stippling Brush, they are amazing and I cant seem to put them down he he. Check out my full review of the collection HERE beaut's!

Cheryl's Stormflower Eau De Parfum

I actually received the gorgeous Cheryl's Stormflower perfume for Christmas and have been using it alot ever since. The perfume itself is a perfect everyday fragrance, it's very fruity with notes of mandarin and nectarine yet it isn't overly orange-tastic as you may expect, however I do find it very tropical smelling too which I love. The bottle is also stunning and looks lovely on my dressing table. I have done a full review on Stormflower which you can find HERE.

Urban Decay Subversion Eye Lash Primer

Eye Lash Primers are something I've never ever tried before, I've just always thought they'd be pretty pointless until I received a little sample of Urban Decays Subversion Primer with my Urban Decay Perversion Mascara. I can honestly say I think I'll always use this little beauty before applying my mascara now because I find it makes such a difference, it makes my mascara go on so smoothly and makes my lashes look thicker, longer and they feel so much stronger too. I use this primer with any mascara not just the Urban Decay one that it came with, and each mascara performs so much better when I've applied the primer before hand, I'm 100% going to be buying the full size of this amazing product.

Beauty UK Glacier Gloss in Plum & Have a Go

I think the Glacier Glosses are quite new to Beauty UK but they promise a high impact shine and intense colour payoff and their certainly not wrong as I blooming love this gloss. Plum and Have a Go has literally been on my lips for most of January, it's not sticky like you would expect a gloss to be, it's super moisturising and the shade is just so pretty, all in all it's super comfortable to wear and it hasn't left my handbag for ages. 

Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation in Fresco

I've been using my Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation alot during the last couple of months and I seem to have fallen in love with it all over again. It really is a fantastic foundation, the coverage is amazing yet it still feels lightweight on the skin and it just makes my skin look perfect and  i've also noticed that it seems to prolong all of my makeup, keeping it in place all day. If you haven't tried the Double Wear foundation yet I'd urge you to do so as it's worth every penny.

Naked Lips Organic Lip Balm Superfruits

I got this Naked Lips Organic Lip Balm in my January Glossybox and have been obsessed with it ever since. The balm itself is 100% natural and packed full of oils so it has super moisturising qualities and generally makes me lips feel super smooth and nourished, it also smells incredible and tastes amazing which is an added bonus, it really reminds me of those little sweets called Love Hearts.

L'Oreal Mythic Oil

Hair oil's have never really been my thing until I tried L'Oreal's Mythic Oil, this stuff is lush. It's enriched with a special blend of avocado and grape seed oil, which seem to nourish my dry ends so much. I used 2-3 pumps of the Mythic Oil on my towel dried hair as I love to blow dry it in and then I use 1 pump on a daily basis on my dry hair, the formula just seems to spruce my hair up leaving it looking shiny, feeling nourished and supple, it seems to define my curls/waves too which I love!
