January Favourites


I can’t believe we’re at the end of January already (que the theme for the rest of the years favourites posts). This month seems to gone past in the blink of an eye, especially the last week as I’ve had a crazy busy week at work and I could have done with another day! Usually my favourites posts contain products that I use over and over again, but January has seen me use lots of new products, and I’ve found a couple of favourites.

I’ve found my new favourite foundation in the form of Dior’s Star. I tried out a sample in a magazine a few months ago and with some of my Christmas pennies I decided to have a little splurge on the Dior counter. I’m new to Dior products, but I’m now starting to be converted. Dior Star gives me great coverage but still feels light on my skin, and gives me a lovely dewy glow – everything I’ve been looking for in a foundation! I’ve also found a new Marc Jacobs perfume favourite in the form of Daisy Dream, a lighter more floral version of the original. Lately I’ve been bold with my lipstick choices, and I’m really enjoying wearing reds, especially Rouge Dior Baurme Lipstick in LYS Rouge. It’s a lovely everyday red shade, and doesn’t dry out your lips when you wear it for a long period of time. A book I’m really enjoying this month is Sali Hughes’ Pretty Honest, which is basically any beauty fan’s bible! It’s full of beauty tips, tricks and routines you should stick to. It’s been a long time since I’ve not been able to put a book down, and of course one all about beauty products would keep my attention ;).

    It’s no secret that I’m a bit of a beauty product junkie. My poor boyfriend has had to put up with countless drawers of products taking over our bedroom and bathroom, yet still I keep buying more. Why? Who knows.

    The Urban Decay original Naked Palette is one of my favourite eyeshadow palettes, and probably my most used. So when a miniature version of it came out I knew I had to have it. I ummed and ahhed about buying this and in the end two of my lovely friends bought me this for my birthday last year. From left…

    Today is no normal Thursday, it’s in fact my 24th birthday! I don’t have any major birthday plans today, as I’ll be at work for most of the day. But I’ll be celebrating tonight with my parents, as it’s also their wedding anniversary, so for our special day we’re all going out for dinner. As…

    Christmas!

    Hello Lovely’s! 🙂 I hope you all had a lovely Christmas! My day was full of spending time with my family, chilling out, eating masses of food, and watching trashy Christmas TV. Now I wasn’t really expecting much for Christmas as I’d only asked for a couple of bits, so I was so excited when…

  • Eloquence Skincare

    As it’s a new year like most people, I’m trying to take better care of myself. Not only am I eating better, and trying to do more exercise, but I’m also trying to take better care of my skin. I often get in terrible habits of not washing my face properly, and just taking my makeup…
