Five Beauty Favourites

FIVE FAVOURITE PRODUCTSI literally JUST posted a video on five favourite products and here I am with 5 more! I've been playing with makeup and skincare so much more lately and I'm already excited for the New Year. I want to draw the focus back to beauty on my channel.. I feel like I became a little bored with it all because nothing was working that well for me but after finding some amazing products I have a totally new love for it all!Glossier Moisturising Moon Mask - £18This. is. amazing. In fact, this is the product that spurred on this post. I have been so in to hydrating my skin recently, I've been using oils, avoiding all mattifying products and this moisturising mask has been one of the best pick me ups I've tried. My skin is so much plumper and smooth looking after using it, if you try one thing from Glossier, make it this!It Cosmetics CC Cream - £30 This totally falls into that same category, hydrate, anti-matte, natural, dewy, beautiful skin! It's doesn't give a huge amount of coverage but it gives enough, it's more than a tinted moisturiser. It looks so pretty on the skin, I have rarely wanted to set it with powder which is unheard of for me. If you're in the phase of 'nice skin' rather than 'nice makeup' I'd highly recommend you pick up a sample of this. I use a tiny amount so although it's pricey it stretches.Sol De Janeiro Brazilian Kiss Lip Butter - £15This is pretty new to me but it was an instant favourite. I'm not sure what's going on but my skin seemed to flip from oily to dry overnight.. and my lips followed suit. I've tried numerous lip balms over the years and there are lots I've enjoyed but this is definitely noteworthy because 1. it smells DIVINE (like a vanilla, fruity smell?) 2. it lasts so long, it's always still on my lips the next morning and 3. it's HUGE. This is going to last forever!Obsession Large Oval Brush - £10I totally thought this was a gimmick but holy cow! You need this in your life. I requested this from Tam as part of my monthly sponsored videos, I wanted to give it a go on camera since I thought it would be of interest. I didn't expect to fall completely in love with it and want the whole set! It blends out foundation and concealer so beautifully. Everything had a nicer finish, more coverage and zero streaks. There are definitely some gimmicky tools out there but there is something to this weird toothbrush looking trend!I Heart Chocolate Bronze & Shimmer - £6This is a 50% favourite. I'm really enjoying the ombre highlight side (left) on my cheeks, it gives just the right amount of colour and sheen in one so it's a quick and easy cheek for me but the bronzer side is just a little too frosty for the face.. for me. I have worn it on my eyes but I'd need to be a little tan to wear it as a highlight.FIVE FAVOURITE PRODUCTSHere's a little bonus for you, if you've been following my Vlogmas vlogs you're here for this, if not you can find them here ..there are a few, go catch up, why don't you ;)I'm giving away this Soap & Glory 'Beauty-Full House' gift set, just comment below with your current favourite product (from any brand, any category) and I'll pick a winner by the end of the week!
