November Favourites // 2014

It’s nearly Christmas and I could not be more excited, usually when it comes to Christmas I am like Scrooge, but this year I can not wait! I also want to use this post as an opportunity to apologize for not posting the last week, I am currently moving house so everything is a bit of a mess at the moment but I can assure you all, my posts will start to become frequent from now on! Now on to this months make-up favourites…

MAC ‘Please Me’ Matte Lipstick

So I shouldn’t have but I did.. I bought a new MAC lipstick to add to my rather large collection of lipsticks and I do not regret it in the slightest. This shade is called ‘Please Me’ and it is beautiful! I usually go for darker shades but fancied trying something new as I am getting bored of wearing either dark red or purple day in, day out. I find this lipstick adds a lovely pink tone to my lips and is perfect for college and every day use! This lipstick is priced at £15.50.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation

Everyone has been talking about this foundation for a while now so I thought I would see what the fuss was about and try it out. At first I wasn’t sure as I have found it is quite light coverage compared to what I was using (Clinique Anti Blemish Foundation in the shade 02) but it has really made my skin look amazing in comparison to what my previous foundations have done. I have also found that it does not take a lot of the product to cover your whole face which means it will last longer and for £9.99 I think this product is a bargain and I will be sure to re-purchase it in the future! There is a lot of colour choice and I chose the shade ‘No. 52 Vanilla’.

bareMinerals Perfecting Face Brush

This brush is easily the best liquid foundation brush I have ever used! The brush has shorter bristles in the centre in a circular formation meaning that this brush has been designed so that liquid foundation can be dropped into the centre of the brush and then easily buffed on to the skin. I have heard bareMinerals are the only make-up brand to have made a brush like this and it is definitely worth the £24 price tag.

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray

£9! NINE POUND! This is a great travel size product from Urban Decay and it is £9… I am AMAZED! The normal size of this product is priced at £20. This spray is a mist that makes your make-up look smooth for up to 16 hours (apparently). I apply this spray to my face after applying my make-up every morning and every evening when I get home from college my make-up looks exactly the same as when I left.This product is highly rated by myself and many others and I recommend it very highly as it is definitely the best setting spray I have ever used.

Makeup Revolution Salvation Palette ‘What You Waiting What You Waiting What You Waiting For?’

This is one of five palettes in this range and I am certainly going to be buying the rest of the palettes in this range as the colours are super pigmented and pretty! I have recently been blending two colours at a time to create an easy every day look so be sure to look out for a post including that look soon!  These palettes are long lasting and very good for only £6! (The picture included does not do the palette justice so if you’re interested check out the link below).
