January Favourites

Hey,
Today I wanted to talk about the beauty products I have enjoyed using the most during the month of January. Below I have a photo of all these items as well as little comments on each item.


















Too Faced - Chocolate Bar:


Since purchasing this palette in December it has become my favourite to reach for when creating a brown eye look. The colours are rich and pigmented and blend together effortlessly. Would recommend everyone purchase if they do not already own it.


Lush - Dark Angels:


This facial scrub contains charcoal which I find works really well with my skin. It also gently exfoliates without being too abrasive or not abrasive enough. 


Nars - Laguna Bronzer:


This was an impulse buy and I am glad that I did buy it. On my skin it is neither orange or too intense but can be built up. 


Phisohex - Antibacterial Face wash:


This face wash helps maintain my relatively clear complexion, I noticed the difference when I ran out. This is something I am going to continue using, just in moderation.


Mario Badescu - Facial Spray:


This facial spray has taken over from my usual toner. Not only is it convenient as it is in a spray bottle but it is made of natural ingredients that does not irritate my skin. This leaves my skin feeling clean and toned. 


Mario Badescu - Drying Lotion:


This product is a miracle worker. Whenever a blemish becomes too nasty I cover it with this product and overnight it moves into the later stages of healing. Majority of the time I wake up with a small spot, even after applying it to a large pimple.


Honey & Tea tree oil (morning face wash):


I found this mix on Pinterest and enjoy using something so natural during my morning shower. This as well as the rest of my skin routine has made my skin so much more healthy and clear. 


Sportsgirl - lip scrub watermelon:


This is a cheap and effective way to exfoliate the lips without the inherent harshness that can occur when exfoliating. It has a sweet smell and isn't overly abrasive. This leaves the lips feeling smooth and ready to be moisturised.


Schwarzkopf- leave in treatment:


The best leave in conditioner, leaves the hair soft and smelling amazing. I have been using this for years and will continue to use it.


Pantene intensive treatment:

I have been using this product for a couple of weeks now  and am quite impressed with how it leaves my hair. I add it to my hair alongside my Pantene conditioner and have found that the mix leaves my hair feeling silky and soft. As well as smelling great my hair has been full of life and as wavy as ever. 

Elvive heat protect cream:


This is a great smelling cream that is applied to both wet or dry hair before heat styling. I generally use this on dry hair before straightening and I have found that my hair does not feel burnt and lifeless after styling. This is a product worth trying.


Garnier anti frizz serum:


This mixed with my Schwartzkopf leave in conditioner work together to not only battle frizz but keep my hair feeling silky and soft. They are my secret weapon to great hair. 

Makeup Revolution powder contour palette:


I ordered this palette from make up revolution and since receiving it have used it just about every single day. It is a versatile palette catering to light and dark skin tones. I enjoy using this palette when I want a more natural looking contour. The whiter powders can however leave the skin looking a little powdery so a lighter hand is recommended.

Chi Chi - Brow Pomade:


This is my holy grail eye brow product. Depending on how heavy handed I am when applying I can rock natural or overly filled in eyebrows all using the same product. A little product goes a long way and while I've been using the product for months I have barely made a dent in it.


Arbonne - eyebrow brush:


This alongside my Chi Chi Brow Pomade are a match made in heaven for my brows. This brush is perfect for applying brow products to my brows and I refuse to use any other brush.

What were your favourite products in the month of January? Why?

Thanks for reading,
