September favourites 2017

Hello darlings.

Its that time of the month (no not that.... haha) Its my monthly favourites.  I'm getting better at using more products each month and i have a lot more to tell you guys. 

Marc Jacobs Daisy (£47.75 for 50ml) This is a perfume i have a very love hate relationship with. I received this as a Christmas present a couple years ago. Some days i think it smells amazing and others not so much. But this month i really enjoyed it, its a very summery scent. Plus the bottle is super cute.

Benefit They're Real Lipstick (£16.50) I received this in Elle earlier this month, i choose it in the shade nude scandal which is a gorgeous 'my lips but better' shade. Its a comfortable creamy texture, thats long lasting. Its also a handy size its prefect for my handbag an for travel, but this is a mini not the full size.

Carli Bybel Palette (£18.00, although currently on offer for £12.60!! wish i had bought it an offer haha) I have used this one non stop since i got this palette. It has a gorgeous range of colours, both eye shadows and highlighters which can double up as eye shadows especially the darker shades as they don't match my skin tone a highlighters. I'm really looking forward to creating some winter looks with this palette.

Rimmel Stay Matte Liquid Lipstick in 'Be My Baby' (£5.99) I know i mentioned this in my last monthly favourites, but its just that good! (Link to my review.) This is my everyday lip product, its so long lasting and it the most comfortable liquid lip i've ever tried.

Lastly a book, this is 'Hurrah For Gin' by Katie Kirby (£6.00) I found this is a charity shop at the start of the month and its so funny! While i was pregnant i have to admit i stayed away from parenting books as they were far to overwhelming! So many people having so many opinions and advice that clashed it just gave me a headache but this book is brilliant. It says what all mums are thinking or have thought at least once but maybe not acceptable to say or live up to societies expectations. Its a light hearted book that is great for light reading.

I'd love to know what some of your September favourites were?

My pound shop bargains!

Hello darlings

Today i thought i'd make a little bargains post, i recently went into the Pound Shop to buy a drink and i thought i'd have a little look at their makeup, i'm a beauty blogger how could i resist? Normally i don't find much that i'd be interested in so i didn't have high hopes. But boy was i surprised my local pound shop had some decent branded makeup in good colours! I controlled myself and only bought things i'd be interested in not just because it was a pound and it was there. So picked up three items, two from Max Factor and one from L'Oreal 

First up is this pencil eyeliner from Max Factor. this is just a simple brown eyeliner, in the shade Khaki, i did need a new one as my MUA one is nearly all gone, so finding this was perfect timing. Its soft and creamy and applies nicely. But it isn't easy to blend, once its on its on! It is VERY long lasting, it took days to come off my hand (swatched below) but on the eye it does come over with Micellar water. 

Next up i bought a single eye shadow also from Max Factor in the shade '03 Metallic Brown'. This is my kind of shade, its very similar (if slightly darker) to my favourite eye shadows 'Taupe It Off' by benefit and 'Suspect' from Urban Decay. Similar to the eye liner its creamy and very pigmented. It blends lovely and it is long lasting. Next time i will see if there are any other shades in the shop!

Lastly i bought the L'Oreal nail polish in the shade 'Burgundy Diva'. I have to admit i have a hundred nail polishes like this one, deep purples and red are my go to nail colours but this was so small and cute i needed it! Its not very season appropriate but i just love this colour so much. I haven't worn it myself yet but i painted my friends Claire's nails with this and it looks stunning. 

Overall i'm really happy with my new products! 

I'd love to know have you found any bargains recently?
