Well hello to you my reader chums! As we're now in December and all the festivities have begun, it's time to tell you all about the things I've been loving in November.
Whether you're looking for an autumn-inspired eye shadow palette or nail polish colour, here are my November favourites.
Makeup Revolution 'Redemption Palette Iconic 3'.
I bought this palette in October and have been using it non-stop. With 12 neutral-based matte and shimmer shades, it has a complete spectrum of colours, with pink-toned based shades and bronze-toned ones too. As I'm really into a bronzy eye, I've loved the brown shades the most, I usually go for one of the shimmery browns all over the lid, with one of the matte browns for the crease, as it really helps define the eye. I think this palette is extremely versatile and could be used for every day to a full-on smokey look with the darker shades provided. It's a complete bargain for the small price of £4 and offers such an array of colours, with great pigmentation and lasting power, a must-buy!
Zoella's 'Blissful Mistful body spray
The fragrance is very similar to Marc Jacob's Daisy perfume because it's very sweet and girly, however, Daisy is more of a floral scent and this is fresher and not as strong. It's just an incredible smell, and I think the packaging is super cute. I would say as it's a body mist it doesn't last too long, but if you like girly scents like me I'd give it a go!
BarryM's Gelly nail paint in the shade 'Chilli'
I have got a lot of use out of this recently because when it hits autumn/winter time I love to wear darker nail shades. It gives a lovely, glossy burgundy sheen to the nails when dry, which I'm obsessed with! However, it does take a long time to dry which I always find a bit tedious as I get impatient and end up smudging them oops. Saying this, it's still a beautiful polish and perfect for this time of year.
Detailer brush by Real Techniques.
In November I wore red or berry lips a lot so when applying them I used this brush to add a layer of lipstick on before I applied it straight from the bullet. This helped a huge amount because it meant the lipstick stayed on for longer and I would already have the outline to then apply the lipstick from the bullet. Also as the brush is rather small it was really easy to fill in the lips without it going everywhere.
Rimmel's clear brow gel
The main reason I've been loving it this month is that it helped my stray eyebrow hairs stay in place. Also, it dries really quickly and doesn't wipe off any of your face makeup, I think it's a must-have in the makeup bag from now on.
Body Shop cocoa butter lip care stick
Now we're into the colder months, it is the time where my lips get oh so dry, however, this has been a lifesaver. With a beautiful chocolate scent which I have to admit I'm addicted to, it's ultra moisturising and has helped keep my lips soft and intact in this cold weather! Also, I love how it's in a stick form because I'm not too fond of tinned lip products especially on the go, but with this, you can just whip it out and whack it on. A definite recommendation!
I hope you enjoyed my November favourites and are all getting excited for Christmas just like me!
