November favourites

Soap and Glory Blush- This month I have barely reached for another blusher which is so rare for me because blusher is the one thing that I change up most in my daily makeup routine. However, this month the Soap and Glory Love At First Blush has made a statement in my makeup routine. It adds the slightest rosy tint to the cheeks for a natural flushed look which I've been loving this month especially now that we're nearing winter. You can get this form Boots here.
Ted Baker body souffle-I've really gotten into body butters and souffle's these past few months and this Ted Baker one is by far one of my favourites. Now that the colder months have arrived my skin really dries out so this souffle has been injecting some smoothness back into my skin. My favourite thing about this is the smell it's a very light, fresh scent of vanilla and flowers that lingers after application.
Pink Sands Candle-I have been loving candles this month especially the Yankee Candle Pink Sands. The scent is a mix of vanilla, flowers and a hint of citrus which is the really subtle, sweet scent. I've been lighting it whenever I've been spending a lot of time in my room and I'm nearing the bottom of the jar so I'll definitely be picking up another. You can get this from Yankee Candle here.
Blake Red Lipstick- This was in my November wishlist at the start of the month and the minute I got my hands on one I bought it straight away and it has quickly become my favourite all time red lipstick. I've been loving bold lips this month and this lipstick has been worn on more than a few occasions. It's the first matte lipstick that hasn't been super drying on my lips and it does last quite a while before it needs topping up so I've been wearing it every chance I've had.  You can get this from Boots here.
Naked Basics 1-I've had this palette in my collection for a long time and as you can tell by the packaging it is very well loved. I always turn to this palette when I'm not sure what to do with my eye makeup because it's so easy to create a simple, natural look. This month I have been using it to death, once again, and it's been my palette of choice throughout November especially as I've wanted to do a very natural eye look to go with my deep.bold lips. You can get this from Urban Decay here.

October Beauty Favourites!

Eye Products

 

Barry M Starry Eyed Shadow & Blush Palette

This palette includes 3 matt and 3 shimmer eye shadows and a peach blush. I've been loving creating different looks using this palette throughout October and I've loved making my eye shadow the staple part of my makeup look. This is the palette I've reached for all month when I've wanted to make a warm and smokey eye look because it has the perfect shades to do so. With the gold shimmer applied across my lid and blended out with a mix of the dark and light brown I've been able to create the perfect shimmery autumn eye make up look.

You can purchase this palette from Superdrug here or from Boots here

Price: £6.49

Bobbi Brown Cream Shadow Stick Golden Pink

This has been my absolute favourite product this month! On days where I've not had enough time of a morning to spend ages on eye makeup I've just gone straight for this. The best thing about the Bobbie Brown shadow sticks is that they can be worn on their own or they can be blended out with an eye shadow shade to create a fuller look. Its been so easy just to swipe this over my lid and then i'm good to go. The formula is super creamy so it just glides on and it lasts all day long even without a primer.

You can purchase this from the Bobbi Brown website here

Price: £20.00

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24HR Metallic Pomegranate

The last eye product I've been loving this month is the color tattoo cream eye shadow by Maybelline in the shade metallic pomegranate. It's a deep, shimmery purple colour and although it can look about scary in the pot it's easily buildable. This means you can add as many layers as you wish until you get the perfect shade for the day ahead. This is another product I've been loving on its own as well as blended out with eye shadows and it's such an easy option but makes your eye makeup look flawless.

You can purchase this from Superdrug here or from Boots here

Price: £4.99

Lip Products

Essence On The Catwalk 04 Lipstick

Essence are my current favourite drugstore makeup brand and the products I've been loving most are their long lasting lipsticks. This shade has been my go to lipstick throughout this month as not only does it stay put for hours on end its also the perfect autumnal shade. I knew I'd found a good long lasting lipstick before I'd even tried it on my lips purely because the swatches I'd done in the shop still hadn't come of a day later!

You can purchase this from Wilkinsons website here

Price: £2.30

Nivea Lip Butter Vanilla & Macadamia

I'm a sucker for anything that smells vanilla and when I rediscovered this earlier this month I knew this was going to become my new obsession. It instantly make your lips super smooth and moisturised and it leaves the smell of vanilla in the air. The only problem is that I keep licking the product away because of it! I've been using this before applying my lipsticks to help the application smoother and I've been applying it just before I go to bed so that my lips are super smooth for when I wake up.

You can purchase this from Boots here

Price: £1.83

Brushes

Real Techniques Stippling Brush

I'm a massive fan of the real techniques brushes and I own the a lot of their collection but the stippling brush is the brush that I have been loving this month! I've mainly been using this brush to apply my bronzer and blusher as I've found it gives a perfect finish. The shape is great for just applying bronzer into the hallows of the cheeks and applying blush onto the apples of my cheeks

You can purchase this brush from real techniques here or from boots here.

Price; £11.99

Drugstore Favourites: Concealers!

                                                     

1.Collection Lasting Perfection
In the short life of this blog I think its understood that I am completely in love with collection's lasting perfection concealer! Not only is it my all time favourite concealer but it's the cheapest! It conceals any imperfections from breakouts to tired under eyes. What more can i say? It's just...Perfect and I cant quite find anything else that compares to it although there are a few close seconds.
Price: £4.19 Rating:5/5




2.Soap and Glory Kick Ass
Another favourite of mine is the soap and glory 3 step concealer. Each step combines to create flawless coverage for both the under eyes and redness. Step 1 is a salmon tinged concealer that works under the eye to discount the blue/dark under circles and it works perfectly for creating an awake and radiant look. Step 2 is the yellow tinged concealer and this works to cover up imperfections such as blemishes and redness and then step 3 is a powder to just set the concealer. Although this is slightly more pricey then my other two options, its a product that I love and believe its definitely worth the money.
Price: £10.00 Rating:4.5/5    
                                           

3.Rimmel Wake Me Up
My third favourite is the wake me up concealer which is another product that I hear so many youtubers and bloggers rave about and I totally agree! It works really well on tackling dark under circles and my only limitation would be that it doesn't provide the best coverage for blemishes compared to my other two picks. Apart from that its a product that I recommend to everyone, especially those who are looking for a cheap but effective drugstore concealer.
Price:£5.49 Rating:4/5 

Are there any concealers that you think are worthy of making my top three?
