January Favourites
21:00
Happy February!! Like everybody else- I can't believe we're in February already, January seems to have flown by!
This months favourites see's a few new additions to last years posts ( and of course some loyal favourites)
Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish
What can I say- removes make-up like a dream, luxurious on the skin, doesn't iritate the skin - a great products
Soap and Glory Daily Smooth Body Butter
I loved using this in January, it smells amazing ( is it Chanel they compare this to? ) and its thick texture blends in easily leaving your skin feeling 'silky smooth'
The Body Shop Earth Lovers Shower Gel
I believe this is suphate free and free of many other nasty chemicals - lathers really nices, gorgeous scent, a bargain at £2.50 ( usually £5), a great body wash
BRUSHES
(Apologies for poor quality above)
These two eyeshadow brushes I have reached for all Month.
Natural Beauty Eyeshadow Brush ( availible from TK Maxx)
Really dense and fluffy - allowing you to pack colour onto the lid
MAC 217 - Allows you to blend out colours and add colour to the crease
MAKE UP
Accessorize Bronzer, Maybelline Dream Satin liquid, MAC Select Moisture cover, Collection 2000 Pressed Powder, MAC Bare study paint pot, 17 Maximum volume mascara, MAC Studio Sculpt ( NW15)

With flash
Accessorize Bronzer - Shade 1 Pearl Sands
It's the highlight that I reach for.Its light golden sheen is perfect to make me look more awake in the mornings and warm up my pale complexion.
Maybelline Dream Satin liquid
A Satin Finish Foundation that feels smooth on the skin, lasts really well, blends easily, ( would match if i'd have matched the correct bottle to the tester!)
17 Maximum Volume Mascara
I have still been using my No7 Mascara for thickening but this does wonders for length and maes a huge difference to my lashes. Doesn't transfer to under my lashes and lasts well.
MAC Studio Sculpt Foundation
A dewy finish foundation. Excellent coverage ( medium- full). Long lasting. Everything I want in a foundation. It doesn't feel heavy and is moisturising for my dry skin.
MAC Select Moisturecover
Have loved this since June. Covers under eye circles like a dream. Lasts on the skin. Not cakey
Collection 2000 Pressed Powder
A bargain at £1.99. Matches my skintone. Doesn't look cakey. Lasts well.Keeps my face matte for most of the day.
MAC Paint Pot in Bare Study
A light champagney pink. Great on its own or under shadows. Pro-longs wear of shadows. (Will crease slightly) but wears well on the eyes
Thats all for this month!
