This month I feel like I've tried a lot of different products and although some were a disappointment others thankfully were great! I think that everything I mention in this months favourites are all new and where bought either the end of October or this month at some stage so I've never mentioned them in a favourites before which is exciting.
Witch Gentle Exfoliating Face Wash, Make Your Scalp Yelp shampoo and Soap Opera.
I won't say much about these because during the middle of the month I ended up doing a blogpost just about these three gems because I adore them so much. So if you're interested in reading a little more about my thoughts on these products you can click here.
The face wash is a great gentle exfoliator for the face and helps get rid of any dryness or oiliness of the skin.
Make Your Scalp Yelp shampoo literally makes your scalp talk it feels great if you suffer from a dry/tight scalp especially coming into the colder months.
Soap Opera smells amazing and is just one of those products that I know I will forever buy. If Soap and Glory shower gels are out of your price range definitely look into this.
Pink Gold Maybelline Colour Tattoo and Naked 3.
After seeing somebody write a blogpost about this I went straight to Boots the next day in hopes I'd be able to get my hands on it and I'm so glad I was able too. I literally adore the colour it is absolutely gorgeous. Sometimes if I'm feeling lazy I'll just wear it on it's own and smoke it out a little, or if I'm feeling like I want to put a bit more effort into my eye makeup I'll pair it with some shades from Naked 3.
I've had the Naked 3 palette since it came out (this is the only product that wasn't bought in the past 2 months so yeah this is old) because of the packaging and rose hued tones I knew I had to get it straight away, however after getting it I simply just left it in my drawer and never really used it. After getting the colour tattoo I decided to why not take this out to pair it with as the colours are all such a perfect combination. So I have been wearing pink a lot this month on my eyes because I just love the result. Before applying the Colour Tattoo I apply 'Limit' to my crease with a fluffy brush just to help give the colour tattoo a bit more dimension to it. Then the colour tattoo goes on top and all over the lid. Blending 'Nooner' into my crease and then finally 'Blackheart' on the outer v of my eye. A mix of 'Blackheart' and 'Nooner' is then apply under my eye just to finish off the look. I find that blending both the colours under the eye just makes it look not as harsh.
Girl Online by Zoe Sugg
Don't worry I'm not going to give any spoilers about this book so if you've yet to read this it's ok you don't have to block your eyes from this part. I bought this book on Wednesday 26th and finished it on the exact same day because I could not put it down. I didn't think it was going to be as good as it was but it was exactly the kind of story that I like to read. The only other book I had ever read in a day was Looking For Alaska which is my favourite book of all time but now between both of them I cannot choose because I adore them both for different reasons. I definitely would recommend this book to people however maybe not to adults because it is about teenagers life's (yes I know I'm not a teenager but I'm only 20 so I still like these kind of books) but definitely give the back of the book a read to see if it takes your fancy! I just know that I will read this over again and I adore the fact that it's a hardback because I normally don't buy them due to the paperback always been cheaper so it's a nice change.
Wrapping Christmas Gifts
I'm not a huge lover of Christmas to be honest, I have no idea why I don't hate it or anything I just don't adore it like others do. Although I do enjoy wrapping christmas presents and this year I knew I wanted to wrap them all old style with plain brown paper with bows and pretty gift tags. After a ridiculous amount of time looking and a stupid amount of money spent on unnecessary wrapping paper I did not want I finally found exactly what I was looking for wrapping paper wise. I did want to go all out and get the brown string but I couldn't find it anywhere other than craft stores which had ridiculous prices, so I settled for some red and cream ribbon with different designs on them and I actually really like how they look with the paper and of course the gift tags I find just bring the whole look together.
