Well that was January, how was it for you? This month I've enjoyed my baby turning 6 months and finally discovering clear skin..... Am I boring you with that yet?
So as the title says, I'm here to showcase the superb in my run down of monthly favourites lets start with hair...
To be honest I haven't been doing much other then washing and letting it air dry but I have been concentrating on my ends. In my humble opinion I've done well to get it so long but the longer the hair the older and more damaged it is. I have been using Charles Worthington, Salon Secrets, moisture seal balm. Which basically looks like a tub of Vaseline. You take a small scoop out, warm it up between your hands and it turns to oil which you leave on your hair as a treatment. This stuff is quite a pleasure to use and although it hasn't cured all my split ends it has dealt with the majority. This stuff retails for £16.99 in boot but I managed to pick this up on offer for £11.
My favourite nail polish this month has been Nails Inc Richmond Terrace. I got this in a Christmas set from House of Fraser. The set has 15 colours and this was my immediate favourite. I will never stop loving these Rouge Noir rip offs.
In the last few weeks of clear skin I have been loving Proactive renewal face wash. This is an exfoliating cleanser and although it didn't clear my spots it does leave my skin more softer and smoother. I also found that using Clinique Overnight Turnaround cream gave my skin a really nice plump bright appearance come morning. This is only a tester size and I have to be careful not to use it every night otherwise I become oily.
There are only a few things I have been loving make up wise this month....
Make up For Ever HD Foundation. My colour is N125. I truly didn't appreciate this foundation when I had bad skin as I was using too much. I find that one pump blended thoroughly gives me a healthy luminous finish with good coverage. Well worth the hype. Benefit they're real mascara is next on the list. Bought by my beloved. This mascara gives nice length and definition but it doesn't budge which is important to me. Lastly on the make up front is Stila lipgloss. I was bought a set of these, again by my lovely boyfriend. What a cutie he is!!! You won't like these if you hate sticky glosses. If you can put up with that then they offer long lasting pigmented shine. Just don't wear your hair down.
Perfume of the month is Florence by Tocca. I first smelt this in Vegas. I then spied it going cheap on Space NKs website. I really enjoy wearing this and will. Definitely re purchase when it runs out.
Lastly, body care favourites are just two items. Soap and Glory Sugar scrub. Smells amazing and leaves my skin feeling super super soft. I'm certainly stocking up on this. Palmers Cocoa butter is a must for dry winter skin. I have been using this all over and then enjoying the bemused look on my boyfriends face as he tries to work out where the chocolate smell is coming from.
I feel a bit bad but I have to mention this item. Although you won't be able to purchase this it has been such a big part of my beauty regime this month and that's my antibiotics! I feel like I'm out of a hole and like I have turned a corner. So yay finally.
