I know I have been MIA so I figured I would
write a post highlighting the most amazing products I was loving for last 12
months. To qualify for this list the products either had to be new and blow my
mind or be an old favorite that I constantly reached for during the year.
Lets start with skin care - I have mentioned this range before and I am
still loving the Rationale skin care I use the skin prep facial wash ( I love
this stuff smells incredible and makes my skin feel so soft). I use the
rejuvenating serum after I cleanse in
the morning followed by the Face spf30+.
At night after I have cleansed I use the
skin refining serum ( if you only take one thing from this post this should be
it this serum will change your life) and each second night I follow that with
the retinaldehyde serum, all by Rationale.
During winter I found my skin was getting a
little bit dry and was worried about changing anything in my routine as it was
working so well, but I decided to add Rosehip oil I picked up the Sukin one and
loved the way it made my skin feel, the only thing I don’t like is the smell.
Hair care – I have been a bit all over the
place with shampoo and conditioners this year haven’t really found anything
that I cant live with out, any suggestions are more than welcome. I am still
loving the Mythic oil, in my hair and the girls. I find it great for my dry
ends and really helpful for brushing out the knots in the girls long hair, and
it makes the hair smell awesome.
Now the big one for me Makeup – I was late
getting on the Illamasqua skin base bandwagon but boy am I glad I did, this
stuff is the ducks nuts, I love it. Great buildable coverage, last all day and
feels great on the skin. It has been my go to since I purchased it in
September.
I have been loving my MAC mineralized skin
finish Natural for powder either on its own buffed into the skin or as a
finishing powder, I love that it has a semi matt finish so it doesn’t look
powdery on the skin, so beautiful.
I have been constantly using my Makeup for
ever Aqua brow gel since I picked it up at IMATS in September and this stuff
wont budge I have worn it in the most sweltering heat lately and to the beach
and my brows have stayed as they were.
I received a sample size Smashbox photo
finish luminizing primer and fell in love, I have purchased the full size and
have been using it constantly. It give a beautiful glow to the skin.
Makeup for ever camouflage cream palette
has been my concealer of choice, I love the peach one for under the eyes and the
others for spots etc. It’s nice and creamy and covers well.
That’s about it for my faves I have been
trying to use lots of different colour products so it has been changing
constantly but these items have always been present.
I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas
and a happy new year, what products have you been loving lately? Let me
know xx D
