FEBRUARY FAVES

Hello all,

So, it's been such a busy month for me (as you can tell by the lack of posts) as I've been doing a course, and I'm officially now a qualified level 1 swimming teacher! which is super exciting and I'm really excited to use my new skills! I haven't got that many new things this month but the makeup products that I have purchased are amazing! Also been loving some random stuff as well so letf be getting straight into it! I also got a new photo-taking-area! It's this cupboard top that I got from IKEA with a glass surface on, and look how cute my lil vase-lamp thing is!

L'oreal - Infallible sculpt - contour light/medium

So L'oreal have just come out with all these new 'sculpt' products ranging from foundation to blush to brows etc and I saw Emily Canham (on youtube) use this product and I was like holy jesus I need it! It's a cream to powder formula so the bronzer is so easy to blend and look amazing. There's literally nothing else like this is the drugstore so I think it's amazing! Honestly, I don't really like the highlight shade because it took all my foundation underneath off, but the contour colour is amazing!
This was on offer in boots for £6.99 rather than £9.99 which i think is so good, so you should deffo go get one of these if you love a gorgeous contour! Get it here

KIKO EYE PENCIL

I have been looking for an affordable tan coloured eyeliner for so long because even the drugstore ones are quite expensive! (£4 for an eyeliner is expensive in my books) But this one from KIKO was in the sale for 70% off, so it ended up being like £2 which I think is really good! It's also so pigmented and lasts on the waterline all day!

KIKO SMOOTH TEMPTATION LIP STICK - 01 nude

Again, I was in Kiko and in the sale I found this gorgeous lipstick! (was like £2.50) Kiko lipsticks are such good quality and go on so smoothly, also the colour range is amazing! I also love the packaging as its so handy to just put in your bag or pocket! The colour is so lovely and I deffo wanna buy some more of these! Get it here!

VASELINE - SUGAR COATED EDITION 

As you know, I love vaseline for moisturising my lips! And because of the sudden weather change (it's so cold it's ridiculous) my lips have been hella dry and chapped it's gross! So this limited edition of vaseline has little bits of sugar in it so it tastes amazing! It has a light pink tone to it but not enough to add any colour (like the rosy one) just makes them look really plump and nice! This beauty is only £2.99 at boots as well!
Get it here!!

Victoria's secret - sheer love body spray 

I got this for christmas and have only just started using it properly (gone past the point of having effort to perfume on!) and it's so easy to just spray and coat yourself in! I also love the packaging! The smell of this one is also very light, so you don't have a really strong smell stuck to you all day, but something lighter and very feminine.

Heroes reborn
So I couldn't get a picture of this one, as it's on TV at the moment, but if you read my last faves then you'll know I'm obsessed with heroes! So this is the follow on series that takes place 10 years after the final episode. AND OMG IT'S SO GOOD! If you love the original Heroes you need to watch this! It's on 5STAR on Tuesday's at 9pm! It has some of the original cast in and some new ones as well, so deffo get watching!

Glee volume 1 CD

So I have no pic of this CD because it was in the car when I was taking the pics and the car wasn't at home so I couldn't get it! But this CD is so good. Obviously if you love glee you need it, but the talent is so good! I recommend glee so much it's one of the best series ever, and also all the CD's are amazing, but the first is my fave as there's so many signature songs on it and you can sing along to them so easily! (a key aspect in a CD in my opinion!) Get it here!

JANUARY FAVES 2016

Hello all,

It's that time of month again! (Geez not that time, ew) Monthly faves time! This month I have loads of favourites as I didn't do one in December and I have acquired a lot more makeup bits and other things from christmas which I have literally been obsessed with for the last couple of months.
Last month was a weird month for me as I had a few issues to overcome, however this month should hopefully be better as I have a lot of exciting things to look forward to!
Also I apologise if some of the pictures aren't the greatest quality, my camera was playing up big time and the quality seems to have decreased when uploading them!

Benefit - Dallas
OMG! So I bought this bronzer with a voucher I got for christmas (£23.50 from Debenhams) and I'm literally obsessed. I decided to get this blushy bronzer over the oh-so famous 'hoola' because it's a much more flattering and suitable shade for my skin tone (however I still want to try hoola!) In addition, the packaging is amazing and i kid you not the powder is so pigmented and the little brush it comes with is so cute and makes a really nice sharp contour!
I also love this product because it's so versatile. For example I can use it as a bronzer, or it makes a really beautiful eyeshadow for in the crease! An overall amazing product and one of my top must-haves this month!

Pan Flute necklace
If you know me, then you know I'm obsessed with Once upon a time, and also Peter pan is one of my all time favourite disney characters (because who doesn't love a boy in tights) So for christmas I was lucky enough to receive this lovely necklace. (after a lot of hinting to bae I must add)
I have been wearing this none stop! The charm is the perfect size as it's not too big or small so it sits perfectly on whatever you've got on. Also i really like the black string, as it doesn't nip your skin like a chain would.

HEROES
OMG I ACTUALLY CANNOT! I am obsessed. no more words needed.
This is one of the best series I have ever watched. To say that it's 10 years old,  the quality of the acting and the special effects are amazing! Not to mention it's obsessive, the story line is so addictive and throughout the episodes you're pulled in to see what happens to each character, as you learn more about what they can do. Also I've become emotionally attached to all the characters, making it even more obsessive!
Believe it or not, the entire series only cost me £19.99 from HMV, which is ridiculously good as it costs around £7 for each season! (Also the box makes me happy because I can tell who's gonna be a main character and who is gonna be gone)

Urban Decay Naked 2 
With my christmas money and vouchers I finally purchased one of Urban Decay's naked pallets! (2 to be exact) and I'm so obsessed with it! It's so pigmented and the colours are beautiful! I did a whole post dedicated to this beauty, check it out here!

Nivea men - post shave balm
(Omg so sorry for the awful quality of this photo it kills me) This product is so highly raved about throughout the makeup industry on youtube and stuff, as started off by The lovely Nikkitutorials (and if Nikki says it's amazing then it must be) So i had to check it out and I was not disappointed! The balm becomes tacky when you rub it into your skin as it contains glycerin, meaning it will keep hold of your makeup all day!
I've used this literally everyday since I bought it, and it's super affordable as well, so it's perfect!
(if you do purchase, try and get it when it's on offer, as it's like £5.50 otherwise and the offers often make it half price)

Becca - Jaclyn Hill 'Champagne pop!' 
HOLY GLOWING GOODNESS! This highlight is literally everyhtiiiinng! If you even makeup you will know what this product is, because queen jaclyn and Becca cosmetics have done every wanna be disco ball proud! The colour is gorgeous, it's a beautiful golden champagne colour and it's soooo pigmented and adds the most amazing glow! And I don't even mind that I paid over £30 for this product, because you can just tell from holding the beautiful packaging (which looks like a UFO) that it's of a very high standard.

Ted baker - Blush and Highlight 
For Christmas I received the gorgeous ted baker beauty box thing that they sell at boots, and it contained so many gorgeous products with such amazing packaging. Recently I've been obsessed with blush, and these two are my current faves! the darker one is perfect for this time of year as it's so natural whereas the lighter one is perfect for a really subtle blushed look.
I also love the highlight in this pallet because it's a really pretty natural pink champagne, and it's so glowy and natural.
Also the packaging is a gorgeous rose-gold and the mirror bit is so cool as it twist around (it reminds me of a flip phone #throwback) and it's such a big mirror it's perfect for travel.

MAC - Matte Bronzer
I bought this bronzer after christmas in 2014, and I've hardly used it as it's not very pigmented, but this past month I've come to love it again! It's the perfect cool tone bronze for contouring and it's really build-able, because it's not crazy pigmented. So what I thought was a bad thing is actually a really good bronzer!

Colouring books
A massive crazy at the moment are adult colouring books, and I'm one of those people following the craze. For christmas I received a load of these amazing colouring books. They are sooo relaxing and I actually find them so fun! My favourite out of the picture is the New York one, as the pictures are so pretty and really easy to colour, also I'm obsessed with New York, so it's all the better!

Pro cosmetics - curve brush
Yet again, I got on the wagon with this crazy, however I did it much cheaper. This brush is actually amazing tho, it glides the foundation or concealer on so smoothly and keeps such a high coverage it's amazing. The going rate for these brushes is around £40, however this one was only dead cheap off ebay! (as told by my sister who got me it for christmas)

Ted Baker powder brush
This lovely rose gold brush was again from the ted baker beauty box from boots. I love using this for powder, as it's so big and gets a good amount of powder all over the face fast, and without looking cakey. I also love it because it's a cute little kabuki, so it's easy to store and hold.

So that's all of my favourites for the month on January! I hope you enjoyed this post, let me know what your Faves from last month were on my new instagram account!
