Hi everyone!
I really enjoy putting these monthly favourite posts
together, even if they are a bit late! They are some of my favourite posts to
read and I really enjoy sharing everything that I’ve been using for the month.
Towards the end of March I really started to get in the mood for spring and
this has definitely been reflected in my choice of nail varnish. This month has
also been focused on trying to get my skin back in good condition. I went
through a bit of a rubbish skin phase towards the end of February and start of
March and I found some products which have really helped. So lets show you
everything:
Revlon Top Speed Nail Varnish in Cloud and Rimmel Lasting
Finish Nail Varnish in Misty Jade
I’ve really been loving pastel shades this month as they
really remind me of spring. Both of these varnishes are really long wearing and
have great formulation. They are both opaque in just two coats. I’ve been
looking into getting some more pastel shades so if you have any recommendations
then let me know!
MAC Eyeshadows in Ricepaper and Outre
I have been wearing these eyeshadows a lot this month, with
Ricepaper all over the lid and then Outre through the crease. I love how well
these colours work together and the bright shimmery golden effect it gives to
the eye.
Sigma E40
I bought this brush back at Christmas but just couldn’t get
used to it and thought it was too big. However I’ve managed to get the hang of
it and have been enjoying using it to put colour through the crease. I’ve been
reaching for it over my E30 pencil brush and have been loving the effect it
gives.
Cowshed Grumpy Cow Uplifting Body Lotion
My sister is a Cowshed junkie and she gave me this body
lotion to try. First of all it smells amazing! It has a sweet grapefruit scent
and I adore grapefruit so this is perfect for me. It sinks well into the skin
without being greasy. It’s the kind of body lotion that means you don’t need to
wear perfume and I find myself catching the scent throughout the day. I think I
may have become a Cowshed junkie too and I can’t wait to try out more from the
Grumpy Cow range.
Lancome Bi-Facile and Eau Micellaire Douceur
I bought a Lancome
Primer and Foundation at the start of February and received these as a free
gift. I ran out of face wipes – the usual way in which I remove my makeup at
the end of the day – and decided to give these ago. I’m hooked. I don’t think I
will go back to face wipes now. They remove my makeup so well, without smearing
it all over my face, and, since using these, my skin has been so much better. I
really want to try Bioderma after I use these up. If you just use face wipes to
remove your makeup then I suggest you give a micellular solution a try as the
difference is amazing!
Lush Grease
Lightning Cleanser
As I mentioned I was
going through a bit of a rubbish skin phase, so I decided to try a spot
treatment to help with all the blemishes. I have to say this has really helped.
You just need to dab it on the offending area and it helps to soothe and heal
the area. I wouldn’t say that it causes blemishes to disappear overnight but it
definitely helps them heal faster, without drying out the skin. Definitely
worth a try if you’re going through a bad skin phase.
Lush Pow Wow Lip
Scrub
I’ve been using this
3 or 4 times a week to keep my lips soft and smooth. I think my favourite thing
about this is the popping candy, which for me the novelty will never get old. I’m
such a big kid! This can be a little messy to use but I love it.
Sweet Vegan
Marshmallows
Something I bit
different from the makeup and skincare but I’ve really been enjoying these marshmallows.
I’m vegetarian and have been for the past 9 years. I love marshmallows and hate
the way it’s really difficult to find veggie friendly ones. Sweet Vegan has
been my answer to this craving and since they had a special March deal where
you received 15% off your order I went for a bit of a splurge. I’ve given them
to my meat eating friends and most of them have commented on how much nicer
they are than regular marshmallows, so they must be good! They are a bit
pricey, especially when you take postage into account, and they do take a little
while to be delivered as they are handmade but if you’re on the hunt for veggie
marshmallows then I highly recommend them. You can order them online here.
So that’s it for the
Month of March. What were your favourites for March?
