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 ;).
