December Favourites

Oh lordy am I bad, in all the excitement of Christmas and New Year's December was over and done with before I'd even realised it started! So I'm using that as the excuse for being a whole week late in doing my December favourites. I have actually seen others and thought to myself, "I must do that", but along with everything else, it was forgotten, so sorry about that *slaps wrists*.

Nevertheless here they are!

As you can see its a bit lip balm obsessed but it is winter ok, so its acceptable. However I'll start with the cleanser; this is the Simple purifying cleansing lotion, now this has been a part of my skincare routine for a while now and the bottle still feels pretty full, although it's not quite a little goes a long way, it still seems like no matter how much you used the bottle stays full! However I wouldn't say that this is the most amazing cleanser ever but it does a good job and is everything that I need from a cleanser without being hard on my pocket, so that makes it a favourite of mine!

Ok so onto the lip balms, as you can see I've gone a bit crazy for Carmex, I kind of missed to hype on Carmex a while ago and never really got into it as its a bit more expensive than other lip balms, not hugely I know, but I used to be a tight arse when it came to money, now look at me! So when I bought the first tube I just needed a new lip balm and fancied trying something new, so I just grabbed it to give it a go. Turns out I loved it so much I got the cherry and the strawberry versions too! But you can never have to many lip balms and I tend to keep them all in different bags so I have one wherever I am. They have a strange tingly sensation that I love and seem to really get rid of dry skin on your lips, I like to use this before putting on lipstick and it makes your lips a lot smoother. As well as Carmex this Nivea lip balm is brilliant too, I keep it by my bed as for some reason my lips are always dry before I go to sleep and this just feels so nourishing and hydrating, I love it!

Next up is my Rimmel Stay Matte powder, as I'm sure you're all aware of this product I won't ramble on to much, but it really is just brilliant and so cheap too!

My most favourite of favourites this month has to be the L'Oreal Super Liner Ultra Precision in Black, this liquid eyeliner is just insane! It it easy to control and to get thin or thick lines with, it stays literally forever (or until you take it off, I hope this comes first), I promise you this little buddy will not budge, it's got great pigmentation and is just everything you could ask from an eyeliner, as well as being inexpensive. Perfection.

And last but not least my Barry M nail varnish in 355 Gold Mine Glitter, this is a lovely spin on an ordinary black varnish that makes it a lot more festive and a lo more interesting, I put one coat over my fav 356 Berry Cosmo on my ring finger for an accent nail and it deepens the colour without making it black, just gorgeous. Also on it's own it's simply stunning to, I love how versatile it is and would definitely recommend this to someone who doesn't like wearing just plain black, as it adds a slight dazzle to what some people may call a dull colour (not me though, I love a good bit of black polish here and there).

So that's my favourites for December, sorry again for the delay and I hope you enjoyed it :)
