Hey guys, Today's post is a favourites posts, at the end of last year I decided to swap from a monthly favourites to a 3 monthly favourite, I was finding that in a month I was not trying enough new products to make a decent favourites post, so I wanted to take some of the pressure of and swap it to every 3 months. Giving me more of a fancy to try new products and also to be able to test them out for a while before reviewing them. So lets jump straight in and take a look at the last few months favourites. 1. Huda New Nude Palette £56 I was lucky enough to receive this from my other half as a Christmas present and I haven't been able to put it down! This truly is one of the most beautiful palettes I have ever owned. It has 18 shades, 10 mattes, 4 duo-chromes, 2 pressed glitters, 1 pressed pearl and a concealer base. The matte shadows are so buttery, they're formulated with aloe vera and coconut oil, the duo chromes are very reflective and the glitters really pack a punch. This palette is truly beautiful, it isn't your typical nude which I love. It contains very wearable shades, from golden glitters to mauve and taupe, beige neutrals. The shadows are buildable , blend out gorgeous and are easy to work with. They're highly pigmented with the only downside being that there can be a little fall out although nothing that would put me off using it. I highly recommend this palette, although it is on the pricier side you do get a lot of product for the money. 2. Body Shop Hemp Hand Cream/Protector £5-12 A little goes a really long way with this hand cream. Within a few uses I could feel the difference, my hands where so soft, moisturised and smooth. It does have a fairly thick consistency making it more like a balm then a lotion. It doesn't make my skin feel greasy after use, like most hand creams. This is definitely a new favourite taking over from L'Occitane's Shea Butter hand cream. The only slight down fall is the scent, it smells quite strong like a mixture of natural medicine and incense, but the results are good enough for me to overlook the scent. 3 Fudge Professional Clean Blonde Shampoo £4.95 - 13.95 This shampoo is perfection! It keeps my blonde from going brassy and yellow. I only need to use it every 3-4 weeks, if I use it any more than that my hair starts to turn purple. If I need to do a real brighten up I apply it to dry hair and leave it on for 7-10 minutes, my hair really absorbs the product and comes up looking brighter and lighter! A little goes a long way and you don't need much when you use it. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to keep their blonde looking tip top! I also like their other products! 4. Yes To Cucumbers Soothing Wipes £2-4 These wipes are perfect for removing make up, dirt and anything inbetween. They're extremely refreshing, which I love! They don't leave my skin sticky or tacky which is one of the main things I look for in wipes. Your face always feels clean after using them, they're always really moist, thanks to the plastic lift lid which snaps closed after use. A really good wipe, with good properties and they're hypoallergenic and biodegradable.! 5. Make Up Revolution Crushed Pearl Pigments £4 These crushed peal pigments come in little square shaker tubes & are so easy to use. These pigments are finely-milled and really give you a high impact look on the eyes. It's best used with a glitter glue, to give you the full vavavoom. For £4 you really cannot go wrong with these, they're travel friendly. can be used to layer over other eyeshadows or on their own for a less polished look, if you're in a rush or want a easy look. 6. Superdrug Vitamin E Leave On Mask £2.99 The consistency is slightly thicker but I apply this generously and leave it to work itself in overnight. I use this maybe twice a week and since using it, I have noticed how nourished and supply my skin is. After washing my face the next morning and making sure I remove all traces of the mask, my face always feels extra soft and my make up applies like a dream . I do love using sleep masks, I like that while I'm asleep they're working their magic! This one I highly recommend , it costs just £2.99 and you get 100mls of product, I have just repurchased and got my 2nd tub! 7. Glamglow Glowstarter Mega Illuminating Moisturizer £36 This moisturiser really goes hydrate your skin, when applied it gives you a glow to the skin, which if applied before foundation leaves your skin looking very dewy. The scent is like chocolate orange but isn't too much. It stops my skin looking tired and dull but instead gives it a renewed brightness and mega hydrating. 8. Marc Jacobs O!Mega Highlighter I was lucky enough to get this highlighter from my best friend for Christmas. It truly is one of the most stunning highlighters I have seen. It blends into the skin effortlessly and without showing any texture or pores. It's truly blinding when applied but can be blended out for a more subtle glow. I cant recommend this enough!
