Late November Favourites

Hello Fellow Friends,
Just a quick post and an apology - sorry it's VERY late!




1. YSL Rouge Volupté (4) - bought this as a little birthday gift in July while in Manchester and have just renewed my love for it! Amazing formula definitely a must have (if you have a spare £21/22 lying around) plus the packaging is great.

2. Chanel Hydramax + Active Nutrition Lip Care - recent purchase while in Australia travelling. Great intensive lip treatment especially now it's super cold in england and your lips need extra care (*sigh* roll on summer).

3. Origins VitaZing - loving this seen as though I still have a bit of colour from my holiday, great coverage and lasts all day! wouldn't recommend to really pale complexions (like mine usually is haha) due to an orange tinge.

4. Chanel Chance Eau De Parfum - had this a while but this month been using it more and more. Such a classic scent, never gets old.

5. MUA Heaven and Earth palette - as you can probably tell by the photo I love this product hence why certain colours are running out, it's such a great everyday natural palette. Can easily go from a day to night look plus it is really great value for money, would go great as a stocking filler!

Thank you for reading

Love Georgia xoxo

NOTD

Another quick NOTD, its MUA's shade 23, one of my recent purchases. Not usually attracted to green nail polish but as this was only a £1 I thought I would give it a go and really quite like it!

Top 5 lipsticks

 Rimmel-nude delight 700, YSL Rouge Volupte 4, MUA - shade 11, MAC viva glam gaga - lustre, elf matte lip colour - natural

Here are my top five lipsticks. I used to be all about lipgloss but Id say for the last year or so Ive been converted to lipstick. I have more recently been loving nude lipsticks rather than pinks. I would say that when you are feeling like a naughty splurge definately try a YSL lipstick as the texture is so unbelievably creamy and I just love the packaging. Although they are pricey theres something nice about having a luxury lipstick in your handbag (sounds strange I know!). I love the elf matte lipstick for an everyday natural lip as it adds just a nice subtle colour for the likes of work. As in my previous post I love the MUA lipsick for a more red toned lipstick. The Rimmel lipstick is the best high street nude I have found that I feel suits me. This MAC lipstick is a great pink colour. I have a list of MAC lipsticks I want to try but for some reason havent got round to getting them yet, hmmmm...not sure why!

I love finding new lipsticks as there are so many to choose from. Im sure I will be adding to this selection in future!

October favourites!

Here are are few things I have been loving throughout October. ..

Avon True Colour blush in soft plum

I love this blusher, its a lovely pink/plum colour. You do have to be careful when applying as the colour can be quite bold if there is too much product. The thing I love most about it is it really does last all day!!

e.l.f cream blush in Temptress

I LOVE this cream bronzer, the texture is so smooth and easy to apply and the colour is just the right shade for me as I dont like bronzers that are too dark as I am so pale. Its a great size and a great budget price! I will definately be checking out one of there pink shades in future!


No7 Midnight Enhancement Blusher

Ive also been loving this No7 blusher this month, I purchased this late october but have been loving it ever since I got it (I used the boots No7 voucher towards it - bonus!). As you can see there are three shades, pink, plum and a highlight shade. I just love the flush of colour it leaves over the cheeks.

 MUA lipstick in shade 11

I purchased this lipstick a few months ago but never really gelled with it but rediscovered it this month and have been loving it. Now, I love red lipstick but dont feel they dont suit me at all, thats why I love this lipstick as its more of a brown shade with red in it so isnt too over powering. The texture is nice nd smooth and stays on a while too and for only £1 i couldnt be more pleased! Its also doesnt have that awful smell/taste that cheap lipsticks usually have.
   
 Barry M nail paint - 115 red black
Barry M nail paint - 292 navy

As its now Autumn, coming up to winter ive switched to darker shades for my nails and ive been loving these two Barry M ones. I apply two coats and love the colour it leaves especially the red black, I think its a really interesting colour it looks red/black/brown all at the same time! Im a big fan of Barry M nail polishes I love the colours they bring out and think they last quite a while. I found the red black to last the longest out of the Barry M polishes I own.

 e.l.f eyebrow treat and tame - dark

Ive been using this on my eyebrows more and more recently and really like it. I dont tend to use the clear end which is for holding your eyebrows in place as well as treating them for regrowth but the end with the wand is a great colour match and like how you just comb it through the brow to leave them filled in and in shape!

L'Oreal Professional Mythic Oil

I received this in September's Glossybox and didnt use it straight away but this month ive been using it everytime I wash my hair, I run it through the end of my hair when damp and then blow dry etc and it leaves my hair so soft and silky. I like to add it to the ends sometimes when its dry too to add shine. I think this is really good and love how a little goes  long with with oil so will last a long time. I really want to try the Morrocan hair oil one day too (its added to my looong list of future buys) as im sure if I love this I will really love that!

I wonder what treats I will have next month for my favourites...
