A Few Favourites Of December

So I have been loving so many amazing products this month but I wanted to share these three favourites on my blog today as I have used them all religiously this month. I think this is mainly because I love rose golds/golds and berry red autumnal shades in the winter season. And these are all these different colours which I adore wearing.

Buy them here: 
Mac Warm Neutrals Palette - www.selfridges.com
Benefit Rockateur Blush - www.boots.com
Avon Nail polish in Cherry Jubilee - www.avonshop.co.uk

I love doing my eyeshadow a lot it is something I find doing is very therapeutic and I love experimenting with different eye looks mainly warm toned as I feel like warm toned colours complement my eye colour a lot more.

That is why I'm loving my Mac Warm Neutrals palette this month, as I love gold/copper eye shadows on my eyes to really make my blue-y/green eyes stand out more. I especially love using the three colours from the middle right they all create the most gorgeous orangey brown eye look they are called honey lust, amber lights and saddle, I have also loved experimenting with the two shadows on the bottom right called divine decadence and unwind. The green-y colour reminds me of mermaids and could look so pretty for a party look I think!
This palette retails for £65 which is a bit steep but I saved for so long and it should be around £150 or more as the eyeshadows separeatly retail for £10 and there are 15 eye shadows.

The next is my lovely Rockateur Blush by Benefit, it is the most gorgeous almost dark rose gold shade, it is so pretty and looks gorgeous in the hollows of the cheeks a bit like bronzing and blushing yourself at the same time it adds a lovely subtle glow and just makes you look super healthy! This retails for around £23 which is expensive for makeup but I have used this so so long and I haven't even touched the pan at the bottom. (which is good as I never want it to run out!)

The last is my Avon Nail polish in Cherry Jubilee, it is one of my all time favourite nail polishes for autumn and it hasn't often been off my nails this month! If you want a lovely deep red which has slight purple tones too this is gorgeous and was only around £4, it lasts so much longer on my nails than other brands like L'Oreal and Barry M.

  

My ESSENTIALS for the Autumn/winter months

So today's post is my essentials for Autumn and Winter. So there's a mixture of things I'd use in both or in one or the other so let's get right into it and I will show you what my essentials are for the autumn and winter seasons we are in and will be going into soon! This post is also featuring some gorgeous Francesca Heels from Online Avenue which I was lucky enough to be sent so enjoy the blog post!

So Autumn is my favourite season because that's when my birthday is and who doesn't love the month their birthday is in (am I right?!) And in autumn I love having the appropriate nail and lip colours that I associate with autumn, so I have a mixture of nail polishes and lip products that I would use in both autumn and winter as I love them all and they are mostly berry/red shades which I find are perfect for both seasons! also I will tell you what all the nail polish/lip colour shades and brands are near the pictures below! 

In both autumn and winter my face/body needs a good moisturiser, as well they make your body feel so much softer and the cold weather can really make your arms/legs/face in particular really really dry. Now I like to use the Garnier Moisture Match in Dry to Very Dry as I find this really helps to bring back moisture into my face, this moisturiser in particular is also only for the face. The second is the Vaseline Spray and Go moisturiser which is amazing to just spray on rub it in and you're done. It dries so quickly which is what I need when I'm moisturising in the morning or before going to bed as I want something that will be quick and then I can carry on with what I'm doing. These products are both amazing if your skin is dry they are a life saver for me! Although everything featured in this post is an Autumn/Winter essential for me!

So If I can be bothered in Autumn/Winter, usually only if I'm going out somewhere nice I will make an effort with my makeup and put on eye shadow, so the palette here is my Mac warm neutrals. It has a mixture of shades but has a lot of gold/copper shades which I absoloutley love in the Autumn weather as well as I also do in the Summer! So basically this is a lovely palette which is a great all rounder for any season really as I wear these sort of shades on my eyes all year round but I love how festive the shades feel in Autumn/Winter too! And it's also perfect for creating christmas party eye shadow looks, as I LOVE A bit  LOT of glitter!
You can find the palette here

So I also have a tangle teezer and this is the gold compact one, it is such a good hair brush and I feel it's so good for on the go as I hate bringing a huge hairbrush (well compared to this one) If I'm travelling and don't want to many bulky items in my bag! the tangle teezer barely takes up any space at all!

So quickly I will take you through my autumn/winter appropriate/favourite lips and nail colours which are:

Lip colours: Mac lipstick in Russian Red, Ted Baker Lipstick in Red (doesn't have a name) Rimmel Kate Moss in 22, Rimmel Kate Moss in 107 (matte lipstick) which are all my faves for this time of year!

So these are the gorgeous boots I was sent by www.onlineavenue.com, they are an amazing brand which I was chosen to feature on my blog from EtailPr I absolutely adore them and would love to feature them in a blog post soon so watch out for that too! 

Online Avenue is an online shoe company with such great value shoes any type you would want they have it on there! They go from a UK women's size 3- size 8 which is great as most people I know are within these sizes! They have such good bargains so if you want some new shoes that won't cost the earth go and have a look!

The one's I have here are the Franchesca Block Heel Pointed Toe Boots and I am totally in love with them! They have a gold detailed trim which is on the front of the heel which was one reason I totally fell in love and knew these needed to be mine! They also have a pointed toe which I think looks so nice on heeled boots but at the same time it isn't uncomfortable and these are super easy for me to walk in so that's an added bonus. I think these boots are really unique and will be coming more into trend through the colder months we are fastly approaching!

I also think that the material used to make these beauties is great as it looks suede but isn't. It's a Lycra material and this also makes them really easy to take on and off as it has good stretch, they also don't have a zip which is also a bonus for me as all my favourite boots I've had in the past with zips seem to break so easily and I've just given up with them, and I'm so happy I won't have to worry about this with these. They are the perfect addition to my shoe wardrobe and I would love to style them in some wintery outfits soon. 

So if you want to have a look at the amazing Online Avenue They have some of the loveliest shoes, heels, boots and even wellies! They have so much variety and for such amazing prices and I'm super impressed and I'm sure I would definitely want to buy some shoes from them in the future! 

They are just an essential for me now in the Autumn/Winter months as Everybody needs some warm boots to keep them toasty throughout the colder seasons!

What are your Autumn Winter Essentials?!

October Favourites

Now is October Favourites time! I felt like the last month went so incredibly fast, but I'm excited to tell you all about these products I have been loving and most of them are all makeup so if you love makeup, which I assume you must do if you're reading my beauty blog! So keep reading if you want to hear more about these glorious makeup and one bath product favourites! 

The first two I'm loving are my two Mac lipsticks the one on the left is the colour 'Russian Red' which I love as it's the most lovely red it's not too bright or too dark, but I would describe it as a classic red colour which is great for important events/parties as it's matte and lasts a long time and looks sophisticated and really pretty on so many skin tones and the colour being more of a muted colour which isn't too bright just looks stunning and I love it! 

The second is 'Rebel' which I'm sure most bloggers/Youtuber's have heard of as it was hyped about so much last year, I have used this a lot this month as my lips have been quite dry and this isn't matte so it doesn't make my lips even worse, it's a lovely berry colour when one layer is applied to the lips but when two to three coats are applied it looks a lot darker and is a perfect vampy purple lip perfect for autumn and winter! 

Next I have been obsessed with snow fairy! A lovely magical shower gel from Lush or at least it just feels and smells magical! It is so super sweet and I love how this is a scent from Lush that they bring out at Christmas but it's still a super girly and perfect product to gift someone at Christmas as a little goes a long way and the scent lingers for so long, and I can't get enough of it as I can't most Christmas' (and about six months after) It is the prettiest pink colour and it's perfect for me as I love anything pink in my bath along with all the lovely pink bath bombs from Lush!

Thirdly I am loving the seventeen Falsify mascara and I'll be honest, I didn't think it would live up to my trusty Maybelline Lash Sensational but it's definitely a close second! for a drugstore mascara it is the bomb and makes my eye lashes (that are so so short may I add) look so much thicker and longer and I don't know how it's so good but it doesn't look fake and unnatural, I think if I did a lot of coats of this it would live up to the 'falsify' term as it just adds loads of length for me and I don't know how but I am LOVING IT! 

Now I never thought I would say this but I am in love with this nail polish, it has not left my nails for about 3/4 of this month and I am never obsessed with nail polish much, I just tend to buy ones and are dissapointed with the colours or quality, this one has lasted a good four days on my nails with 2-3 coats which is so good for me as I struggle to get any to last longer than a day without chipping while doing simple daily chores and activities. It is the colour 'Cherry Jubilee' and would you believe this was a free gift with an Avon purchase my mum made and to be honest, I haven't put it down and she's probably wondering where it is, ooops... better put it back soon but if you have the chance the Avon Pro nail + range is such good quality and lasts a lot longer than Barry M and L'Oreal on my nails!

Lastly but totally utterly not the least is my NAKED SMOKY. This palette is just a dream come true and I have loved it especially this month because in the colder weather I can get away with the dark blues and the gun metal shades, which really look nice with a brown or black smokey eye. I love how you can create so many looks with just this one palette there are the easier to were shades and the intense colours so it's perfect for creating something simple and on the more natural side or something a bit more out there! 

First Impressions | Avon Glimmersticks Lipliners

 Today's post is going to be on these two gorgeous lip liners from Avon. 

I have wanted to try some lip liners from other brands other than Rimmel, and thought these looked so nice in an Avon catalogue I had. And after seeing them on offer for £3.50 each I decided it was time to try them out!

Avon is fast becoming one of my favourite cheaper beauty brands, the products are easy to get hold of if you know an Avon representative or you can order from the online. They have so much choice and so many gorgeous lipsticks too, two I have featured in a blog post which you can read here if you'd like to know more about them.

My top favourite Bronzers

Bronzing or contouring has become a very popular throughout the last year or so on YouTube, and the Blogosphere whether you want a subtle contour or a Kim K one it is easy to master with the correct products! 

Now I have a mixture of high end and drugstore favourite bronzers, mostly drugstore as I love a good contour and get through bronzers quite quickly and this means it can get fairly expensive if I am using just high end ones! I will be giving my honest opinions on them all but as you can see by the title of  this blog post these are my most loved and most favourite bronzers, so enjoy!

My Top Spring/Summer Lipsticks

This post is going to be my most used/reached for lipsticks, which I will be wearing throughout Spring and Summer 2015! I hope this blog post is of some interest to other ladies who are obsessed with lipstick because well I am and I'm not ashamed to admit it!

I have a mixture of Bright, Subtle and how I would describe as 'My lips but Nicer' choices for Spring/ Summer. I love pairing brighter lips with summery outfits which can sometimes need a lipstick to either brighten or keep it simple, I have made my choices around this as I usually pick lipsticks based upon my outfit!
