Monthly Make-up Favourites






Here's a round up of all the products I have been loving through out the month of March. My day-to-day make-up look doesn't really change that often but I have added a few new products into my daily routine.

Kiko Long Lasting Eyeshadow
On an everyday basis I usually just go with winged eyeliner but lately I have been wearing this cream eyeshadow from Kiko. It is in a stick so it is really easy to apply and then quickly blend out with fingers or a brush. It lasts all day as well without creasing. I have been using the shade 07 which is a champagne colour which is perfect for everyday looks and brightening up the eyes. I really want to try more of these in different colours.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Dip Brow Pomade
I am still loving the Dip Brow Pomade from Anastasia, it is perfect for making brows look fuller. I use it in the shade blonde which is the perfect shade for me. I normally can't find a eyebrow product that is the right shade, but I have finally found one.

The Body Shop All-In-One BB Cream
I have been going for a lighter coverage lately so I have been reaching for this BB Cream I have it in the shade 00 which is the lightest shade they do.This BB cream is really good when you don't want a lot of coverage, I do tend to build up a little bit more coverage by using concealer where I need to.

Benefit Roller Lash
Benefit's Roller Lash was released earlier this month and I have been loving it ever since I got it. It curls lashes whilst also holding the curl. I love the way it makes my lashes look, I think it has to be one of my new favourite mascaras.

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
The Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer will always be one of my favourite concealers I always find myself going back to it. I had be out of it for months as I couldn't find my shade and I kept forgetting to pick one up. I'm glad to have this concealer back in my collection.

Burberry Kisses
I recently received a sample of one of the new Burberry Kisses. I have the shade Nude Pink and it is the perfect everyday nude for me. It's a lovely pinky nude which is right up my street when it comes to lipsticks. There are 28 shades in the whole collection and every shade looks amazing, more of these are definitely on my wish list.

Nude Lips vs Dark Lips





Lately I have been loving a pink/brown nude or the total opposite a deep purple/red. I have been loving either a brown nude (just like Kylie Jenners) or a pinky nude which is usually my go to lip option, but I have also been loving that dark red/purple lip which I love wearing with the good old winged liner.

The brown nude that I have been loving is The Body Shop, Colour Crush in the shade 310. I really love this lipstick as you can wear it shear as well as building up the colour for that full Kylie Jenner look.

The second nude that I have been loving which is more of pinky nude which is my normal go to lip option. It is the Bourjois Shine Edition in the shade 26. This is a gorgeous glossy nude colour and I love the way it looks with a smokey eye or just a simple eye look.

Lastly the dark lip which I have been wearing a lot lately is a Revlon Super Lustrous Lipstick in the shade 477 Black Cherry. I know a lot of people that love this lipstick, and I am one of them! It is deferentially one of them bold lip shades which just make you feel 10x better about your make-up!

Well for me I am going to say that I am torn between dark lips and nude lips. I really can't decide a favourite! It depends on how I am feeling as to what lipstick I choose.

 I really want to get some more bold/dark lipsticks so if you have any suggestions make sure you tell me in the comments!

Is Spring On It's Way?








Yes I know spring may be well on it's way but that doesn't mean I will be giving up my dark lips and nails and also my black winged liner.

I recently picked up this Illamasqua nail polish in the shade Vice, it's a lovely deep purple/red shade. It applies really nicely only needing two coats, it is semi matte it has a little bit of a shine to it but its not super shiny.

Another deep red product that I have been loving is this lipstick from Revlon in the shade Black Cherry, after seeing loads of people wearing this I just had to be brave and try it out. The finish on it is like a satin finish it has a little bit of shine but not too much, I wish this lipstick would stay on a bit longer than it does as I feel like I have to reapply it every half an hour. Overall its a lovely shade and formula it would be even better if it stayed on for longer!

I have also found another eyeliner which I love! It is the Master Precise Liquid Eyeliner from Maybelline although this doesn't stay on as long as my Soap And Glory Super Cat liner I really like the way this liner goes on, I love how fine the nib of the liner is so it makes the application really smooth and easy!


Hope you enjoyed this post!
