March Favourites 2013

 

I don't know about you guys but March was a crazy busy month for me, it was the good kind of busy, weddings, work, catching up with friends etc. But nonetheless, I found it hard finding time to take a break, let alone catch up with my blog. So for that I apologise, but I thought a fun way to remind you all that I am still around was with some monthly favourites, I have a variety of products to tell you about this month, and I really love all of them! Alright, let's get into the fun stuff...

 

Michael Todd Blue Green Algae Antibacterial toner- I had heard to much blog/YouTube hype about these products that I just couldn't resist giving them a go... I've been using this for a few months now and I really like it. I have dry skin so am wary of any toners because they tend to make my skin feel tight and uncomfortable, this one doesn't at all and I think it has really helped with the condition of my skin, although that could be a number of products, I'll be doing a kin care post soon to tell you about what's working for my skin type and how I am readying myself for Winter...

 

Burt's Bees Body Wash- I love all Burt's Bees products! This is a new favourite, it is mostly made from natural ingredients, smells great, and doesn't leave my skin feeling dry at all. I got mine at www.feelunique.com because they have a good selection and free international shipping, love it.

 

CoverGirl clump crusher mascara- I am not such a huge mascara lover but this one is pretty fool proof! As the name suggests, it is a very clump-free mascara, it separates my lashes well and doesn't smudge, it's also easy to take off at the end of the night, always a bonus.

 

Revlon Smoky Shadow stick in Torch- This cream eyeshadow stick is dual ended but I mostly use the light end as an eye shadow base, it is easy to apply and doesn't tug on the eyelid as some cream shadows can. The colour is a more shimmery version of my eyelid colour so it works really well as a base, doesn't crease on me, and lasts all day. Well done, Revlon.

 

Rimmel ScandalEyes nude eyeliner- There once was a time where if you wanted a nude eyeliner you would have to head to a department store to fork over quite a few hard earned dollars, but thanks to Rimmel those days are over. I am not against spending money on good quality products, but I do love when things like this become available at a more reasonable price. Nude eyeliners are great for putting on the waterline to get rid of any redness and make the eyes look brighter, I also find this one quite nice for putting in the inner corner to brighten my eye area without putting anything too white or shimmery there.

 

Voluspa candle in Santiago Huckleberry- Oh my. This candle is amazing. This is probably my favourite favourite this month, its just beautiful. I can't even describe the scent, so if you come across any Voluspa candles, give this one a sniff, it's sweet but not too sweet and makes my room smell amazing. It's burning next to me right now and it just makes me happy!

 

Trilogy Everything Balm- Last but not least is this little gem from Trilogy, it is sold as an 'everything balm' which seems pretty accurate to me. The reason it has been a favourite this month is because something very sneaky bit my foot while I was out earlier in the month and my skin seemed to react to it a little, I tried various products and in the end this is the things that seemed to calm the redness and irritation, I was quite pleased!

 

I hope you all had a lovely March and enjoyed the long weekend!
