September Favourites

I know everyone says this every months, but I can't believe how fast the last month has gone. Not long til the fat man in the red suit makes an appearance either! I've bought 3 Christmas presents already and for me this is a big deal - I'm usually rushing around at the last minute so this year, I'm gonna be Miss Organised.

Anyway, on to a few September favourites....


1. V05 Heat Protect styling spray - I spray this on towel dried hair to help with styling and texture, and also it gives heat protection up to 230 degrees. It smells really nice and does not weigh my hair down at all.

2. Collection 2000 Super size Mascara - I reviewed this about 2 months ago and I loved it then and still do. I have been wearing this almost daily as it's a really great all round mascara. Cheap as chips too!

3. Sephora Paris Palette - I love this palette as the colours are really versatile and can be worn day or night. I also love the blusher colour in the compact. So pretty.

4. Soap & Glory Righteous Butter - One of my all time favourite body butters. I rediscovered it last month and it's as good as I remember. So moisturising and it smells amazing.

5. Trevor Sorbie Beautiful Volume Shampoo - I've been using this shampoo for months now and I adore it. It's one of the only shampoos I have found to really give my hair a lift.

I'm Back...With May favourites

Hey guys...remember me?

Well I haven't posted for absolutely ageeees!! I don't know why...I just haven't felt like it. I always told myself that if I didn't feel like posting then I wouldn't. It's no fun for me to have to force a post, and I definitely think its no fun for you guys either...no one wants to read a post that's so obviously forced and it's just not going to be good. So anyways, I didn't post for a couple of months, then the other day I was reading through my blog roll (I still read this regularly) and I decided I really missed blogging, and lo and behold, here I am...with May favs!!


The first thing I've been loving this month is the Lee Stafford poker straight flat iron protection spray. I've used this every day before blow drying to give my hair a bit of heat protection. I love it so much it's almost gone. Oh and the smell is completely divine.

Maybelline the falsies volume express mascara in black. This has been my staple mascara for a while now, it just gives me those fab, fat lashes that make me want to flutter all day.

Barry M nail paint in bright purple has been my go to polish this month. I think its such a pretty colour, but the name does baffle me...it's not bright!!

I picked up the Maybelline gel eyeliner at the end of April and at first I wasn't keen. I am a gel liner novice and at first I just couldn't get the hang of it. But a bit of practice and now I'm a-loving it. Its soo black and really stays put.

This ELF bronzer is actually something I picked up quite a while ago, but as it was winter I found it a bit too shimmery for me. Now, since we have a bit of sunshine (Emphasis on BIT) I have been enjoying this product a lot more, and the lighter colour makes for a great highlighter.

I blogged about my Good Things Stop That Spot clearing gel when I first got it, and since then I've been using it on any blemishes when they decide to rear their ugly head. I don't know how much faster they clear the spot but it definitely feels very cooling and soothing and I very much like it. It also smells really nice.

I won the MAC paint pot in Constructivist on a blog giveaway a few months back, and recently I've been loving it as a base for the colours in my Naked palette. It's also really pretty on its own.

Finally, I have discovered my absolute favourite nail polish remover in Cutex nourishing nail polish remover. It removes polish really quickly, it doesn't have a god awful acidic smell that lingers for hours, and it contains a whitening formula to help stop any nasty staining. A real winner for me!

Have you guys been enjoying any of these products? And what have been your favs for May?

January Favourites

Good Morning Girlies...

So glad it's finally the weekend!

Just wanted to share with you all my favourite products from the month of January...


1. Maybelline The Falises Volum Express Mascara.
I recently reviewed this mascara (click here) and if you've already read it you'll know I absolutely love it. It gives me full and thick lashes as well as added lengh, without the icky clumping.

2. No7 Stay Perfect Eye Mousse in Pewter.
I really love this eyeshadow. I actually got it as a freebie in a No7 giftset and hadn't tried it until recently but the colour payoff is excellent and it's really longlasting and doesn't crease. It makes a great base for other shadows, and is just as lovely on it's own.

3. Clinique Super Moisture Make Up in 04 Ivory.
I've been using this foundation religiously for a couple of months now (reviewed here) and i am still in love with it as ever. It's really moistuising so is great for my dry patches and it makes my cheeks look really dewy and youthful.

4. E45 Moisturising Lotion
This is definately one of my holy grail products and I always find myself repurchasing. It's great on my face for an everyday moistuiser, great to use all over my body and I also use this if I want to mix some in with my foundation to give a sheerer coverage. AND it's cheap, so what's not to love.

5. MAC Venomous Villians Blush in Bite of an Apple.
When I first bought this I thought it was really bright and wasn't too keen on it, but around Christmas time I started using it and I found, if used sparingly, I could create a gorgeous 'Just been out in the snow' rosy glow. Even though the snow has now gone, I'm still enjoying faking this look.

6. ELF Lipstick in Runway Pink
I've had this lipstick for months now and I think I've worn it almost every day in January. It's just one of those lovely nude pinks that doesn't make you look dead. I think it's very flattering with my skin tone and I always use it with a lipbalm underneath to stop it drying my lips.

There we have it. January summed up in 6 bullet points. Do any of these products appear in your favourites?
