After pondering for a grand total of 2 minutes I decided that my first proper post on this bloggy should be on my monthly favourites! SO without further ado let's get crack'a'lackin'!
The Body Shop Seaweed Deep Cleansing Facial Wash ~ This cleanser is amazing! The gel formula allows the product to lather nicely on my skin and I feel it leaves my skin squeaky clean. It can be a bit drying as it is targeted for combination/oily skin so if you have dry skin I wouldn't recommend this to you. I think the price is pretty reasonable as you get a hefty 100ml in the tube and a little goes a long way with this product! Also, it has to be said - I ♥ seaweed!
Aussie Miracle Hair Insurance Leave-In Conditioner ~ Not exactly the most interesting product out but that doesn't stop me from loving this bad boy! A thing you guys should know about me is that once I step out from a shower a war arises between me and the tuggy warzone that I call my hair. Seriously though, my hair is an afro of tugs and I can't not go without a leave-in conditioner! I picked this one up late last month and I just fell in love with the smell. Not much of a shocker when it comes to Aussie products! I just spray this before I brush my damp hair and this really helps detangle the knots and leaves my hair smelling fuuurreessshhhhhh! And for only £4.49 it is a bargain!
Soap & Glory Hand Food ~ Never did I ever think that one day I would be raving about a hand cream because let's face it - hand creams are boringggggg! However, this little gem has changed my views and I now see the light! Woohoo! I got this from a friend for Christmas and I must admit I wasn't overly excited when I first saw it but I've been using it (near enough) every day! The smell is what first pulled me in -typical Soap & Glory smell - delicious! This hand cream does an excellent job of really and I mean REALLY hydrating my hands and what's even better is that it sinks in almost immediately so no awkward slippery hand moments for me!
Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Eau de Parfum ~ Mmmm. This perfume both looks and smells amazing! I'm rubbish at describing the smell of perfume and interpreting the different notes of scents but I can say this smells just stunning! It's florally but not too sweet; I feel it is a bit more mature than other floral scents out there so it's perfect to wear on nights out! But it can also be worn during the day as well! Confession: I bought this online solely for the bottle without even smelling it beforehand! I am a sucker for packaging what can I say..The bottle is beautiful though and the bow really helps it stand out! Lovely on a dressing table!
The Body Shop Facial Brush ~ So I bought this on a whim when I was out shopping but boy am I glad for impulse buys! This goes hand in hand with my seaweed gel cleanser and together just really gets rid of dead skin cells. The brushes can be a bit harsh on my skin but small slow circular movements on my face seem to tone down the redness afterwards and my skin looks glowing! It's tiny and has a lid to go with it so great for the avid traveller who can't be bothered bringing their clarasonic with them!
Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr Eyeshadow in 40- Permanent Taupe ~ This colour is gorgeous It's a very matte brown so a nice wee change from all the metallic shimmery shades from the rest of the line. I love wearing this on nights out because it just does not budge from my eyelids! At the end of the day there is a touch of creasing but I can forgive a little bit of creasing! Overall, love the formula and love the shade - been wearing it pretty much everyday this past month!
Revlon Photoready Cream Blush in 200- Flushed ~ Not only does this have really nice packaging the product is great too! I've slowly become a huge fan of cream blushes and this blush is a really nice addition to my collection! The colour from the pot looks frightening as it's a bright bold pink but when applied this blush goes on pretty sheer. This might bother some people though, but for me I think it's genius! You can layer it up to whatever intensity you want it to be: sheer glow or bold bright! I'm currently eyeing up the coral shade!
Collection 2000 Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner ~ I got this liner free from an offer in boots where if you spent more than £4.50 ish (can't really remember) you get a free eyeliner. So I picked this up not really having very high expectations but I'm really impressed with this liner! The tip is very pointed so you get a crisp and thin line and it's definitely one of the easiest liquid liners I've tried! The staying power is also really good - it does not budge! Love love this eyeliner and so happy I picked it up! For only £2.99 on its own it's definitely worth a try!
Real Techniques Stippling Brush ~ I love stippling brushes! They're my first choice when it comes to applying liquid foundation and cream blushes because they make blending a lot faster and easier with great results. So I've been hearing a lot of buzz around the Real Techniques range and defo think these brushes are worth the hype! The brushes are really soft and don't feel harsh on my skin at all. I bought one for my foundation and another for my cream blushes!
So, that's it for this month's favourites! What are your favourite products this month?
