In January, I don't think it's a hard month for anyone to justify not doing a favourites. We are all still using our beloved products from Christmas and for me - it's birthday stuff too! Pro's of having a birthday in January.. Woop woop! There is so much stuff I wanted to include this month but I've narrowed down my favourite picks I got for Christmas (I feel so wrong saying that in February) That's given me a good 2 months (almost) to try and tell you how amazing these products are!
I've sang praises about many different purple shampoo's in the past, but this is definitely the best one I've ever used! It has to be the cheapest out of them all too. I had heard Meg from Meg Says sing praises of this in one of her videos, so I decided to give it a go. After one wash, with the shampoo and conditioner together - I am not even kidding you when I say it looked like my hair had been dyed! It maintains the blonde, toning down any brass/yellowy colours really well and I love how shiny it makes my hair after washing! If you spend a lot of money on purple shampoo.. Don't! This is your new saviour!
Clinique 'Take The Day Off' Cleansing Balm
For a higher end cleansing balm, I'd say this is definitely one of the more affordable ones I've seen. I am always looking for quicker ways to remove my make up without too much faff, and this does the job wonderfully. You rub it all over your face without wetting it first, massaging it into all of the days make up and use a flannel/muslin cloth to wash it all off. It's fragrance free for all you sensitive skin types out there and doesn't require too much rubbing. It gets my make up off without any hassle and doesn't leave my skin feeling too greasy (which is good, considering it's quite an oily consistency) The only downside is that if I rub too much product on my eyes, it can leave them a bit blurry. With that being said, I would definitely purchase this again, as it's one of the only things that doesn't make my skin flare up into an oily disaster! If you haven't tried this, you absolutely should.
This was never going to be a classic Tania favourites without any Lush stuff, was it?!
Obviously, I am a wild Lush fan so I'm slightly biased, but this is the best body scrub I have ever used. This comes in solid form OR a liquid paste, which is the one I decided to go for. I prefer the one in the pot because it's less abrasive, in comparison to a solid form. It leaves your skin feeling SO soft and moisturised, as well as nicely exfoliated. This is a very gentle scrub, which is perfect for anyone who doesn't want to get out of the shower looking and feeling like you've shed your skin. It smells divine and has leaves you with the cleanest, floral smell you could possibly imagine. I couldn't recommend this more!
I popped into Sephora a few weeks ago whilst in Barcelona and darted straight for the Too Faced section. I've heard so many good things about this foundation and I was dying to get matched up. Much to my surprise (not) it turns out I actually needed the lightest shade! #palelife. I got given the primer as a free tester to try out with it and the two work so well together. This is a medium-high coverage foundation which is easily buildable, extremely lightweight and blends so nicely. I apply mine with a beauty blender, as I find it leaves a better finish, in comparison to a brush. It is oil free for all your combination skin types out there and doesn't leave your skin too dewy. POIFIC!!
144 eye shadows in one palette.. What more could a girl want? (Probably a lot more is the answer but hey, just go with it) Make Up Revolution are very popular with pretty much all beauty bloggers at the moment (especially me) and the more I use them - the more I can see why. The shadows are really pigmented and you have such a vast range of colours (incase you didn't notice hohoho) They're easily blendable and they stay on for so long. I use the top half of the palette more than the bottom colourful shades because y'know, I'm not THAT daring..! Either way, if you're absolutely make up obsessed or you're just starting out with eyeshadow - this is the BEST palette to experiment with and everyone basically needs it in their lives!
