October Beauty Faves!

I can’t believe we’re in November and there are only 37 days until Christmas! Here are the bits i’ve been loving for the last couple of months…

New CID Cosmetics i-Glow Coral Crush
My new favourite blusher! I got this last month and have been using it on a daily basis ever since. Love the golden, shimmery effect that leaves you with a really radiant look.

Jaclyn Hill x Becca – Champagne Pop
Love Jaclyn and love Becca so it was almost a given that i’d love this highlighter too! and boy do i! It just melts into the skin. The shimmer (not too glittery) shade and pigment is all amazing. Fave highlighter fo’ sho!

Davines OI All in One Milk
I love this leave in treatment! It’s full of rich roucou oil, this cream supports hair growth and protects it from harmful UV radiation, while ellagic acid fights off free radicals and cell damage. The smell is absolutely amazing and my hair felt so soft and manageable afterwards. I use it with the OI shampoo and conditioner and it certainly packs a punch!

Lush lip scrubs
Lick your lips, apply some to your index finger and then rub! My lips always get so cracked and dry during the colder months and the Lush lip scrubs really exfoliate and leave them feeling sooooooo soft!

Instant Comfort Lip Oil in ‘Honey’
These aren’t cheap but somehow I just keep repurchasing them again and again! I love the applicator and the way it feels on the lips. Super hydrating, and the consistency is nice; thick but not goopy or sticky.

Benefit Goof Proof brow pencil
I’m not too into my brows much as I haven’t been blessed with thick, bold ones (sob!) but this is, as the name suggests, an eyebrow pencil for noobs. It’s super easy to use, the shape of the pencil makes it easy to either do detail with the thin side or fill in with the wider side. I wanted to try this mostly because I heard that this would only coat the brow hairs and it has a long lasting formula, both of which are very true.

Sanctuary Spa 5 Minute Thermal Detox Mask
I have a bit of an addition to buying face masks and this is the newest to my  collection. It heats up as you smooth it on and leaves your face feeling soft and fresh. I usually leave it for slightly longer than 5 minutes, then lightly buff off with a muslin cloth.

DNA Eye Renewal
Developed by Dr. Ronald Moy – a pioneering research scientist and dermatologist, specialising in the fields of ageing and sun damage. I got a sample of this and liked it so much I bought the full size. Also love the cute blue plastic test-tube packaging it comes in.

St. Tropez Self Tan Bronzing Lotion Face
I am naturally so pale especially in the Winter months so this just gives me a really natural colour on my face. It applies nicely, doesn’t look fake and doesn’t break me out. Win!

Sally Hansen – Belle of the ball
Belle of the Ball is a lovely mid toned purple with red-orangey shimmer. It applies so nicely and give this gorgeous plum like colour. Opaque after one coat although I always use two coats to give it a perfect finish. Fabulous shade for Autumn/Winter!

L’occitane Delightful rose hand cream
As soon as the Summer ends my hands start to get dry and cracked. Hand cream is a must for me but I hate feeling sticky especially because i’m always on my phone. This hand cream is gorgeous, it smells great and sinks in without leaving any greasiness!

Clinique Chuby stick in 07 Super Strawberry
I own a chubby stick in almost every colour because I was obsessed with them when they were first released. This one is my favourite colour, it’s a beautiful rosy pink that is moisturizing, applies nicely and is build-able.
