Hey Guys, May favourites are usually the most varied and full of amazing Birthday gifts from friends and family. I can't believe that we are now half way through the year! I love seeing all the summer releases from companies and what they come out with for Summer! Without further ado let's jump into my May favourites! Product Of The Month Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon I received this as one of my birthday gifts from my amazing other half and I have completely fallen in love with it! I have never had such a good eyeliner. I got this is Blacquer and it is a pure jet black shade. This gel eyeliner applies like a dream, delivering intense pigment, it glides gently & doesn't pull. Once applied and placed where you want the product , it's almost like it sets, and becomes longwearing, smudge proof and waterproof. The packaging is sleek and feels solid. It's good quality and it's safe to say I completely fallen in love with this and it's become a holy grail product. These retail for £20 and are available from Net-A-Porter Poison Girl Unexpected Next up we have my new favourite perfume for the summer. Another Birthday present this time from my mum. This shakes up the refined ingredients to create a fresh and floral scent. The top note for this is Tanzanian Ginger, the heart note is Damascus Rose & the base note is Venezuelan Tonka Bean. It also has notes of Vanilla and musk./ To me this perfume is the perfect mix of both sweet and spice and a little sour. It smells amazing! I am a big fan of Dior perfumes and this doesn't let you down. It last's so well on me and is both elegant and luxurious. It's a new favourite for me and I love that I have it in their new Rollerpearl size for my handbag. The rollerpearl size is 20ml for £33 and you can get it in 50ml-100ml £42-90. Available from Dior, John Lewis, House Of Frazer & More. Botanics All Bright Cleansing Toner Having recently run out of my favourite rose toner by Dior I was looking for a replacement so I picked this one up at the beginning of the month. My skin has taken to it well, I've added it into my skincare and it is so gentle on the skin., it's so cooling and effectively removes and left over grease after cleansing. All you could want from a toner! It retails for just £5.49 from Boots, which I think is a bargain! Smashbox Photo Edit Trio - Holy Crop I love the colours and shades in this trio, they really make my blue eyes pop when applied. These shadows are extremely pigmented and high quality. The formula is smooth and buttery and really easy to blend out. Some of the easiest shadows I have worked with in a long time. For my full review on this item click here. It retails for £20 and is available from Smashbox and Boots. Smashbox Photo Finish Primerizer As you see I have been loving Smashbox products this month! When I saw this come out I knew that I had to try it out. When I trained as a make up artist we knew nothing about priming the face and where only taught to moisturise the face as part of the process. Now we know that primer is a necessity to prepare your skin for make up. So I love the idea of trying out a product that combines the 2 steps. I love that this product gives hydration with very light texture. I haven't experiences any issues.. My foundation sits evenly on top, looking flawless and it holds my make up in place for 8-12 hours looking perfect. My make up did not budge for the whole day. My skin feels hydrated and soft when I remove the make up which suggests to me it's working to hydrate my skin while under my make up. I will definitely be repurchasing this. This retails for £30 for 30ml and the travel size is £15 for 15ml and is available from Smashbox and Boots. Macadmia Healing Oil Treatment I love the way this oil makes my hair feel, the shine it gives, the nourishment and how a little really goes go a long way. I use this on damp hair before styling and after I have finished styling and it still doesn't weight the hair down. It gives it a beautiful shine, it gets rid of any frizz and fly away hairs as well as nourishing it and helping keep moisture in the hair. Click here for my full review. There are a variety of sizes and prices to match but this product is available from Look Fantastic, Amazon and more. Laura Mercier Flawless Fusion Ultra Longwear Concealer This is a medium to full coverage concealer with a gorgeous formula which feels weightless, almost like a serum. It definitely is blurring and crease resistant which is a huge plus to me. A little really does go a long way and is buildable, it blends out beautifully, it dries down quiet quickly but once it does it does not smudge or budge, it really does not move or look cakey. My shade is a !N which is beautiful natural neutral colour perfect to brighten my under eyes. I wore it for around 9/10 hours with no sliding. It covers dark circles and imperfections and can be built up flawlessly I would definitely repurchase this concealer. It retails for £24 and is available from John Lewis, Selfridges, Harrods & Harvey Nichols. There you have my favourites for the month of May. I don't have any fails as I have enjoyed all the products that I have tested out this month. I love tying new make up and seeing new releases. Summer is upon us now and I look forward to seeing some summer releases and some bronzed looks! If you have any requests or questions feel free to leave a comment or drop me a message! Until Next Time,
