January Favourites

















































































































Picture number two makes me sad as when products don't look nice and squeaky clean in pictures it makes me cringe a little, but hey ho - this is what happens when a product is clearly loved.
Been using a few different bits and bobs since the new year and some of my old time favourites still in here aswell, theres some things ill always go back to.

Sephora Blush & Jemma Kidd All Over Radiance - I've had this blush since January 2011 after visiting New york. At that time i loved makeup but wasn't really 'into it' like i am now, so picked this up on a wim as it was pretty cheap and a nice colour. However, it has managed to be the blush i always go back to, pigmented enough to leave a colour but sheer enough not to be to overdone its perfect for my pale complexion. The radiance creme from jemma kidd was an after christmas purchase. After seeing Vivianna post about wearing it, i ummed & ahhed over it for a few days then eventually just purchased, I'm so glad i did though as this has become a staple in my everyday makeup, i just brush a little over my cheekbones and brow bone for a subtle glow.

Herbal Essences Hello Hydration conditioner - Again i saw Gemsmaquillage post about this on her blog and happened to have run out of my usual conditioner at the time. I then saw this in tesco on offer and decided to give it a try. It leaves a nice shine on my hair and leaves it very soft and smooth, basically doing the same (if not better) job as my other conditioner which cost twice as much as what this did.

L'oral Super Skinny Liner - Picked this up in boots when it was on a 2 for £11 offer (best friend brought the other one so ended up as 5.50 each instead of like £7) we both needed new liquid eyeliners and this seemed the best of what was on offer. I've used it a lot since i brought it, but definitely not the best one i've ever used, just the only one i have.

Urban Decay Naked Palette 2 Brush - Just a good fluffy brush for applying all eyeshadows on the go!

Mac Lipstick in "Hue" - This is properly my all time favourite Mac lipstick, i always end up losing it by taking it on nights out ect, so don't get to use it for ages then repurchase and fall in love all over again, its my perfect nude lip colour with just abit of something else.
