November Favorites

I know we are now gone in to the second week of December but its better late than never :)
Ill divide it in to categories starting with :

Skincare etc


Mac Fix +
I spray Fix + over my make up to blend everything together and get a dewy finish. Its full of vitamins that are good for the skin and you can also just use it as a skin refresher throughout the day

La Roche Posay moisturizer
I've repurchased this moisturizer about 5-6 times. Its meant for oily skin made fragile by over-drying products. I used to have oily skin its now quite dry. It always changes with seasons and this products does a good job at keeping my skin moist without braking me out. 

Lush Grease Lightening
When I break out in spots I use this gel to get rid of them! It doesn't sting like most spot-treatment products do and on the first application reduces redness and puffiness! After about 3-4 days it will clear up the imperfections :)

Lush Tea Tree Water 
This is a popular Lush product. It can be used as a toner or a skin refresher. Personally I like to use it as a toner after cleansing my skin. It doesn't dry me out and keeps my skin nice and fresh.



Aussie Leave-in Hair Conditioner 
I have long blonde hair which can only mean one thing. EXTREMELY DAMAGED!
I always use a leave in conditioner to try and make it more healthy. It has been working wonders on my hair, one down side is that is makes my hair greasy if I spray it on my roots by an accident. 

Queen Helen Mint Julep Masque
I ordered this off Ebay a while ago and have been using it as a weekly mask to dry up any blemishes i may have and to unlock my pores. Its been doing a good job at making my skin blemish-free but nothing seems to tighten my pores. Im on the lookout for a product that can do that :)

Neutrogena visibly clear 2-in-1 
I can guarantee that this will be in my favorites FOREVER! I use it mostly as a face wash rather than a mask. I stopped using this for a week before and broke out in horrible spots. As far as I know many people have raved about this product including Lollipop26 off Youtube!

Plus White 5 minute Whitening Gel
Im a little bit obsessed with bleaching my teeth! Yes I know its so bad but I cant help it :(
At one stage my teeth started to look transparent from so much bleaching and I had to stop!
This is by far the best product Ive tried for bleaching my teeth. It doesnt give results from first application more like 10 but its cheap and doesn't make me sensitive!

Face Products


Clinique Repairewear foundation
I've been using this for about 3 weeks now and so far had no break outs! 
Its a full coverage makeup and very moisturizing which is what I look for in winter time.
It stays on all day and a few girls have asked is my skin really that flawless or is it makeup? Haha if only they knew... :/ 

Benefit Hoola Bronzer
Ive hit the pan with this product as Ive been using it literally everyday to contour my face! Everybody knows how good this is so I dont need to go on. 

MAC Peachykeen
This might be my favorite MAC blush out of all the ones that I own. I used to think it was too shimmery but thats because I was very heavy handed with it. I now only use a little bit and it looks stunning. 

MAC Moisturecover and Studio Finish
I use moisturecover under my eyes and studio finish on any blemishes or redness. Ive also repurchased these quite a few times and they are my all time favorites. 

The Balm Highlighter
Loving this on the top of my cheekbones and also as an all over lid colour!  I dont tend to use highlighters because I have very large pores and any shimmer just draws attention to them but this doesn't have any glitter and is very subtle which is just perfect :)

Eyes


Elf Brow set in "Blonde"
The dark brown side is a gel like substance for outlining you brows and the lighter brown powder is for filling them in. I never used to touch my blows, now its an everyday ritual! I love this products its cheap and cheerful :)

MAC Paintpot in Bare Study
I use this every single day as a base! It definitely does make my eyeshadows last all day.

MAC Fluidline in Blacktrack
Im a big fan of winged eyeliner! When I think of it I cant actually remember the last time I went outside without my eyeliner! Im nearly hitting the bottom on this so ill be repurchasing soon :)

L'oreal Voluminous Mascara
I had serious transfer problems with this at first but then it dried up a little and now im loving it more than ever. It gives me massive lashes! And that is all I need in a mascara

Brushes


Sigma ss224
I love all my Sigma Brushes but Ive been loving this for blending out my eyeshadows. Its extremely soft and great quality

Clinique Foundation Brush
I got this as a freebie with a purchase and fell in love with it from the first try. Its very soft and doesnt leave any streaks behind.

MAC 187
I have the Sigma version of this also and i find this one a lot softer and easier to use. It blends out my foundation like nothing else, its definitely my favorite brush!

ELF Flat Top Kabuki
Amazing quality for the price. I use this for powder and it buffs it in lovely. I own a couple of other elf brushes but this is my fave!

I know this post is extremely long I apologize for that but I hope you enjoyed reading it! :)
Let me know what your faves are from last month!
