August Favourites

It's favourites time again! This month I haven't really tried many new products as I've been quite busy but there have been a few products that have been my saviours this month! I had a terrible reaction to the Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish, my skin looked worse than it ever has. Luckily I had the YSL Touche Eclat Foundation to save the day, I just love this foundation, I think it is the best I have tried for dry skin and makes my skin look so flawless at the same time. The finish is beautiful, I have never loved a foundation more than I love this one and I really don't have anything negative to say about it! Last month I bought a new mascara that I wasn't that impressed with (Maybelline The Falsies), so I quickly repurchased the Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara and have decided that it is my all time favourite mascara, beating all high end mascara's like the Benefit They're Real and the YSL Faux Cils! It is fabulous and so affordable. As mascara's have to be replaced so often, I prefer using drugstore ones, plus I believe the highstreet ones are often just as good as the high end ones! Finally I have been rediscovering my Mac Eyeshadows as when I reordered my dressing table and makeup collection they got put in the drawer and weren't something I reached for as often, however I have dug them out and been enjoying using them. I have been using Omega for my brows, if you have fair hair like me, Omega is great as it looks natural, it's not a brown so doesn't look fake at all, which I often find happens when searching for brow products! On my eyes, I have been using either Jest or Ricepaper on the lid as they are really pretty champagne colours and blending Mulch into the outer corner! I am looking into buying a few more eyeshadows so leave your recommendations in the comments!

  3. That's a great little quad! I use Omega on my lids for a great matte look. My brows are quite dark so I use Charchoal Brown instead :)
