Hi guys.
Its been a while since I did a favorites blogpost...in fact I have only ever done one favourites' post before and that was almost 12 months ago! So as it is Blogmas and November has left us for another year I am going to show you what I have been loving for the month.
November was a big month for me trying what I already had as well as trying a couple of new products which I received from a few Birchboxes.
Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish: Let me start by saying this product is amazing! I cannot believe I have never thought of trying this. I received this sample in a Birchbox earlier in the year and I have used this ever since. I have two samples and am almost out of my second sample. Safe to say I will be purchasing the full size soon as my skin has never looked better while using this. It is a thick cream which when applied to the skin, makes my skin tingle due to the eucalyptus oil which smells like heaven in a bottle. I just squeeze a bit onto my hands and rub it onto my skin and with the muslin cloth that came with it, I wipe it off with hot water and my skin feels refreshed and clean. It does remove make up but I tend to use this once I have taken off my make up and any residual make up left comes off with it. I will have to go to my local Boots soon and pick the full size up. You can purchase this at Boots.
Bioderma: I have mentioned this in my skincare routine earlier this year (you can find that blogpost here) and during November I have been using this almost every day and night as I find it cleanses my face beautifully and gets rid of make up and impurities without causing stinging to the eyes and face. I am about half way through the bottle and will be repurchasing when it is nearly empty. You can buy the 250ml bottle at Boots but I bought this through Amazon
Parlor Smoothing Blowout Spray: I don't normally use a lot of products in my hair but as I received this sample in a Birchbox, I decided to try this out and boy am I impressed. This product smells fantastic and smooths and give my hair a shiney finish. I don't exactly know where to purchase this but I'm sure you can purchase this at Birchbox.
Chanel Vitalumiere Aqua Foundation in 10 Beige: I have recently done a blogpost on this foundation which you can see here. This foundation gives me a full coverage without it feeling and looking cakey. The scent is pleasant and doesn't linger once applied. You can purchase this at Boots or Debenhams.
Chanel LE BLANC DE CHANEL Multi-use Illuminating Base: This base is one of the best I have ever tried. It is so silky to apply yet is quite a thick feeling (I know that sounds weird but it is the only way I can describe it) The scent is so nice, it smells kind of fruity. It gives the skin a nice glow while priming the face. You can either use it mixed into your foundation or alone under it. I have only used it alone but I will have to try it mixed into my foundation, You can also pick this up from Boots and Debenhams.
Nuxe Reve De Miel Ultra-Nourishing Lip Balm: Again I have reviewed this on my blog which I will link here. I have started using this more this month as my lips have become so dry and I know that it helps with dry, cracked lips. My lips are still dry but not as cracked and sore. I think this has become my holy grail lip balm! You can purchase this from Marks and Spencer's or SpaceNK.
Real Techniques Brushes: I have only shown three of my Real Techniques brushes to show them in my favourites' post but I am loving the range as a whole. They are soft yet stiff when it comes to applying make up to the face. You can purchase them from Boots and Superdrug.
Superdrug Eyelash Curler: Lastly is a boring product but a useful one. I have been trying to use eyelash curlers more often and I didn't want to spend a fortune on them if I didn't use them often enough so I bought these from Superdrug which you can purchase in store or online here. They help curl my lashes especially my left eyelashes as they seem to be all over the place and mascara can't seem to straighten them up unless I have curled them before hand.
That's it for my favourites' this month. I will be doing a December favourites' post instead of a yearly one as I cannot remember what I have been loving this year (I really need to write this down or do a regular favourites' post, which I will try to accomplish in 2016).
What have you been loving this month? Any recommendations?
Bye for now.
