November Favourites!

Rimmel Kate-107

Maybelline The Falsies- Black Drama

I bought near the beginning of November as I needed a new mascara after my Maybelline Colossal running low and I thought I would take a break from my favourite and try out the famous Falsies that has been much raved about. I genuinely really like it, I still prefer the Colossal don't get me wrong but I do see why it is much loved and will buy this again; I got this in Black Drama because I always like my lashes to be as dark as possible.  

Philosophy Hope in a Jar moisturiser

I was gifted this after subscribing to Company magazine and my original subscription gift had run out of stock, so they gave me a different gift worth the same price instead; I'l tell you what I'm glad they did I love this! It's the 60ml pot which isn't the biggest available but it is worth about £34! It's such a lovely texture and is so light, you don't need a lot either so it lasts and is definitely worth the money, oops may have a new money draining addiction.

Sleek Antique Blush

I have already reviewed this product here but I continue to use it and it is so lovely for this time of year; being limited edition I hope I don't use this up to fast!

Barry M Berry Cosmo Nail Polish

This too has already made my rave list and I have raved about it over here, it is just perfect for autumn, is a gorgeous colour and it lasts a good amount of time too.

Rimmel Kate Lipstick 107

I haven't yet mentioned this since I bought it but I have worn it a lot! I haven't really worn lipstick for that long but for some reason I feel so comfortable wearing this even though it is bright. I just love it and think it can really complete your make up.

Stipple Brush

I bought this off eBay quite a while ago in a set and never really used it much, but I have been using it with my Sleek blush as it is so pigmented and this picks up the perfect amount of product without over doing it. It has super soft bristles and yes I know it needs a wash I'm on it ok.

Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick Creme 477 Black Cherry

I had been looking for a lipstick a bit darker than my Rimmel one but still a plummy red colour that didn't completely wash out my pale skin, which I thought would be a tough job, but then I found this! I had looked up berry lipsticks and ones people recommended and this one popped up quite a lot, so I thought I'd give it a go. It is so lovely and so pigmented, it can be dabbed on for a lighter wash or put on for full colour, although I love this lippy I do find if I'm not careful it can become quite dark with a few layers and can look a bit much for everyday, however this could be great for an evening out so just a bit of trial and error and care and it will look gorgeous! (oh and it also makes you teeth look whiter, bonus!)

Collection Colour Lash Mascara- Clear

I know this isn't a great colour and is looking a bit grubby now but it is brilliant for eyebrows rather than lashes! Now personally I've never understood the use of clear mascara and never found it's done much on mine personally but it is great for keeping my brows tamed! I don't fill in my eye brows as I'm fair and quite pale so I don't think it suits me, although it could be my lack of skill, still this does a brilliant job of keeping them neat and is super cheap too.

Thanks for reading, I hope you enjoyed my favourites of last month.

Sleek Antique Blush

Hey guys! 

Superdrug have had a great offer on at the moment of everything being 3 for 2, so I decided to use this to my advantage and pick up the much hyped Antique blush from Sleek. Now this is my first Sleek blush, shock I know considering all the rave reviews on them and I can finally see why. 
I can't believe it has taken me so long to purchase a Sleek blush but I'm so glad that this was my first, it is a gorgeous rosey brown that looks so natural on the cheeks and is perfect for the colder months bringing a lovely subtle flush to the apples of your cheeks. As you all know Sleek has amazing pigmentation and is such and affordable price too, which just tops it off for me. I can already see myself wearing this daily and I've only had it a few days. 

Excuse the thumbprint, I had a bit of a struggle getting it open

I can't wait to try a few more of their blushes and other products, have you got any suggestions on what is good to try?

October Favourites

Ok so I know this is late, but October went by so fast I didn't even realise it had ended, then I realised I had to write this and I haven't had a chance to actually sit down and write. So here is it :)

I've been loving quite a lot lately and I didn't realise until I tried to pick my favourites.

Body Shop Makeup Bag
I got this one christmas with shower gel and body lotion in it, it has come in so handy this month as I've been too-ing and fro-ing over night a lot more than usual and it can fit in all my skincare bits as well as my main makeup brushes. It's a great size that's not to big however it fits lots in, love it. Also its quite christmassy and don't shoot me! I'm already so excited to christmas.

Neutrogena Wave
This little beauty has literally changed my skincare routine, I enjoy using it so much. It's so quick and easy to use and I got it for an amazing bargain!

Barry M nail Varnish- 356 Berry Cosmo
I've already posted about this but I have literally been wearing it non stop, I love love love it!

Witch Blemish Stick
This is amazing for clear up breakouts, I use it in the morning and night and it has really helped. It does sting a little but nothing to bad, quite a good price as well.

Nivea Milk and Honey Lip Balm
This is about on of the only lip balms that I get along with consistently, I go through love hate relationships with most lip balms, however this one is brilliant all round and I just love it :)

L'Occitane Hand Cream- Passionate Jasmine
I got this free with a magazine and oh my god it smells delicious! Its really moisturising and great for the colder months now arriving and its also in a cute, handy travel size tube.

Philosophy Hope in a Jar Moisturiser
I think I might do a separate review on this because it is simple amazing! I got this free from signing up to a magazine and I think I'm now hooked, which isn't good considering it's killer price tag. Anyway it has made such a huge difference to my skin, I cant believe it, so loving that!

Rimmel Stay Matte Powder
This is just great, there has been so many rave reviews about this product and it really is worth the hype, its so cheap and good quality for the price, it lasts a good amount of time and keep your makeup put, just what I need.

Ikea Candle- Tindra
So I've finally been to Ikea! And this is one of the things I picked up, it smells amazing and I just couldn't resist, it was so cheap as well and I am loving candles more than normal at the moment. 

So thats it my favourites of October, I can't believe it has gone past so quickly! I am ridiculously excited about Christmas, I am like a little child.
Best get writing my christmas list, I'm thinking about doing a post on what I'm wishing for, would you like to read something like that? Let me know :)

Hope you all had a great October and a happy halloween!

Winter Wishlist

1/2/3/4/5

So I got really good feedback on my last wishlist and I really enjoyed putting it together, so I thought I'd do another! Considering October has gone crazily fast and I haven't posted half as much as I wanted to, I kicked myself up the bum and sat down to write this. There's quite a random mixture this time, and a lot of candles! I just love them ok. 

Anyway hope you've all had a great October and have a fun Halloween :)
