Hello everyone!
So last year I did monthly
favourites, I really struggled to choose enough favourites, especially when I didn’t
buy anything new. This year I decided to avoid repeating myself by doing
quarter yearly favourites (does that make sense?). Every three months I’ll do a
“current favourites”.
In the past 3 months, I feel as
though I have upped my makeup game so much-if I do say so myself. I now contour
every day, my brows have never been more on fleek, and my eyeshadow is banging.
This is due to me watching so much more YouTube, and listening to the tips
makeup artists say.
Anyway, let’s go on with the
favourites;
Simple Kind to Skin Moisturizer
Not going to lie, but I never used
to moisturize at night. Now I have a consistent night time skincare routine.
This moisturizer is bomb and is super affordable!
Model Co Face Base Primer
This primer is incredible! It has a
silicon feel to it which really makes my base stay put all day. It also smooths
out my skin which makes it so much easier to apply foundation.
Restylane Recover Cream
I picked this up at Priceline on
sale one day and it has worked so well on my skin! I apply a drop over red
pimples at night, and when I wake they haven’t disappeared but they will diminish
quite a bit.
Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3in1 Foundation
This foundation is so amazing! I wish
it came in a little bit of a lighter colour but this is the best foundation I have
ever tried! It builds well and stays in place all day. There’s honestly no
other foundation that compares in my opinion.
Nars Laguna Bronzer
This bronzer is magical, I can be
used to lightly bronze your skin, or be used as a contour. It blends out well
if you want a sheer contour and can also build up to be darker.
Chichi Cosmetics Spices Eyeshadow Palette
All these shades are perfect for a
warm toned eye look, which is what I mostly go for. Perfect in the crease or
all over the lid. I’ve noticed how this palette is quite a bit more pigmented
than past Chichi palettes, which is also a bonus. I think everyone needs this
palette in their lives.
Stila Eyes are the Window Palette in Spirit
I’ve done a full swatch of this
palette in another post, however I just want to talk about the first shade ‘kitten’.
A makeup look is not complete without this in my inner corner, it stays there
all day and is the perfect highlight!
Real Techniques Bold Metals Contour Brush
Did I fool you? Yep this is fake,
from eBay, however; this brush is son dense and really achieved a perfect
looking contour. You can buy the set here.
L’Oreal Super Liner
I have had such a struggle with
eyeliners, I can never seem to find one that is perfect, yet this one is! It’s
so easy to achieve a perfect look every time.
Original Beauty Blender
Last year I wrote a post comparing this
to the Chichi one, and I said how they were both almost the exact same. They’re
not. The beauty blender is so much different to every single other sponge I’ve
ever used and I can’t quite explain it. I do know this: I use this every single
day now, nothing applies as perfect looking. Now when I go back to using a
brush-I notice lines and even if I blend out for 20 minutes, it doesn’t look as
natural or perfect as with the beauty blender.
Kat Von D Shade and Light Palette
I love the first shade Lucid
underneath my eyes to set. This really stops my concealer from creasing and
brightens dark circles. These powders are so fine, they never look cakey.
There you have it! These are my
current favourites and I do hope you try out some of these products because
they are so worth it!
