Hey guys!
I can't believe it's already the end of January! The month flew by for me!
As I wasn't in college until the end of the month, I had so much time to try out new makeup and I found some new favourites along the way!
HudaBeauty Mauve Obsessions
I got this palette off CultBeauty for my birthday and I love it! The shadows range from matte to metallic and are perfect for deepening any eye look or creating an entire look from this palette!
Although the pans are small, I have so many palettes that I will never get to the end of (this one included) and for €25, the quality is worth the size of the pans!
I found myself reaching for this palette throughout the month and was so excited when I saw the entire obsessions range in Brown Thomas the other day!
Mauve Obsessions along with the rest of the range are available from Brown Thomas for €28.
Real Techniques Angled Tweezer
I cannot tell you whether it's because this is a brand new pair of tweezers or because I haven't used one in so long but I am obsessed with this one from Real Techniques!
Unfortunately I got this as part of a set ages ago but I only started using it recently. It is so dreamy to work with so easy to get at eyebrow hairs at awkward angles!
Payot Pate Grise L'Originale
I got this little jar sent to me a few months ago and have been using it ever since. You may have seen my instagram post on it as well!
The cream (it has a cream consistency anyway) is best dabbed on spots overnight and left to soak into the skin. I found it really helped aggravated spots overnight and they were not as noticeable the next day.
After the Christmas indulgence, this definitely helped my skin recover over the last few weeks! The only downside to this product is that it stains pillowcases so definitely put a towel over your pillowcase at night!
Payot Pate Grise L'Originale is available in pharmacies nationwide with an RRP of €23.
LOV EVENelixir Serum Foundation
This foundation is so nice! What's even better is that there's a dropper in the bottle so you minimise product wastage (yes I usually have loads of foundation left on my hand). The foundation is medium coverage so I used a concealer along with it but the lasting power was fabulous.
I tend to chop and change between foundations but with continued use, this foundation claims to even out your skin tone and improve skin elasticity!
LOV's EVENelixir serum foundation is available in selected pharmacies nationwide and retails for around €15!
Kelkin Tea Tree Roller
This tea tree skin treatment has done wonders for my skin over the past few weeks. I used this during the day, in conjunction with the payot product because this could be worn under makeup and absorbs straight into the skin.
I honestly don't know what I did before I discovered this gem, it works within hours and is travel friendly as well!
Kelkin's Tea Tree Roller is available is pharmacies nationwide for €4.60.
NYX Professional Makeup Soft Matte Lip Cream - Cairo
If you guys follow my instagram, you'll know that I'm a fan of this line already. However, I don't usually delve into the paler side of nudes but when I got this in the post I was intrigued enough to try it!
While I wouldn't wear this with a single drop of tan on me, it is a nice shade for a neutral, daytime look! I stand by what I've said in previous posts though, the soft matte lip creams are in no way matte! They may look matte but you need to blot your lips a few times to make sure nothing transfers!
Soft Matte Lip Creams are available in selected pharmacies nationwide and Arnotts, with an RRP of €8.
Urban Decay B6 Prep & Prime Spray
This spray was my saviour this month! I always sprayed it on my face before makeup, or even just on my face after skincare, if I wasn't wearing any makeup. It helped keep my oily patches at bay during the day and my makeup stay on for longer, if I was wearing any at all!
Pairing this with the All Nighter Setting Spray is a match made in heaven!
Urban Decay's B6 Spray is available in Debenhams and their Grafton Street store for €31.
