October favourites




Mac lipstick 'Smoked Purple'
This is the perfect autumn shade it's a beautiful vampy purple. It's £15.50 and it is part of the Mac Pro collection lipsticks and is available on the Mac website. It's matte and is slighty drying so you might need to prep lips before applying.

Rimmel Kate Moss lipstick 
I'd never tried a Rimmel lipstick before so I decided to order the kate moss in 08 online from LookFantastic.com and I love love love it! It's the perfect nudey mauve colour and I love it's creamy texture and it has a pleasant sweet smell to it which is a great bonus. For only £5.49 this is a must buy for everyone. 

Oskia Moisturiser 
Winter is probably my least favourite season because of how harsh it is for my sensitive skin. So to help fight against the harsh weather I love using my Oskia Nutri-Active day cream as its packed full of essential vitamins and natural ingredients to help repair and protect skin whilst keeping it hydrated. A high end moisturiser retailing at £52 from CultBeauty.co.uk 

Burts Bees Hand Cream
A recent purchase from LookFantastic.com which is not the best but i still think it's great. It's 100% natural which I love and works wonders on already healthy skin making hands extra soft and smooth but for dry/chapped skin it does nothing to help repair which was quite a let down considering it was £11.99.

Mac Paint Pot  
After watching a few of @Chrisspy (instagram username) YouTube videos and notice that she uses Mac paintpot in 'painterly' as a primer for her eye makeup I decided to invest as her makeup is always flawless. I've only used it a few times so far and it's already replaced my other shadow primers. It holds eye makeup in place way better than any other product I've tried. Purchased from maccosmetics.co.uk and is worth its  £15.50 price tag. 

Anastasia Beverly Hills Concealer 
I'm forever trying out new concealers as I tend to get bored of using the same ones. I ordered from the Tamanna Palette as well as the concealer in 1.0 from Anastasiabeverlyhills.com. I like the texture of this product, it's quite similar to Benefit's Erase Paste but not so greasy which is a good thing. I use it for undereye concealer as well as to cover blemishes and I think it provides good buildable coverage and works really well for me.  

Miss Dior Eau De Parfum 
This is one of my all time favourite fragrances and I think it's one every lady should own. I've been using it a lot the past month but my new bottle still looks near full as I literally only spray once and it lasts, it really is that strong of a smell. Purchased from Debenhams.

Illamasqua Blusher 
My go to blusher lately has been Illasmsqua powder blusher in 'Lover' I love it's peachy subtle tone. I prefer powder blushers I find they are easier to work with and tend to last a lot longer especially Illasmasqua as the pigment on all thier powder procucts is amazing. Available at illamasqua.com.
