January Favourites

 
Hey Guys!

For my last blog post of the month, I decided that I would do a January monthly favourites. If you have never heard of this, it is basically where I talk about everything I have been loving this month. I will only post this every second month because it could get repetitive if it is for all twelve months of the year. Stay reading till the end of this post as I have an exciting announcement! Also, comment what your favourites were this month so I can check them out! With that said, lets get started!

I will first begin with my beauty favourites, my first one being my Stay Matte Powder by Rimmel London. I just had to include it because I use it every day and I love it so much. This was probably one of my best purchases and it was also very inexpensive for Australia makeup. Next is my Benefit Stay Don't Stray eye shadow primmer. This is only a sample but I know when it is finished I will have to repurchase. I have always wanted a eye shadow primmer to see if it works and it does! You could also wear it just on its own if you were doing a 'no' makeup look. This next product is a fragrance and it is the Taylor Swift Incredible Things perfume. Firstly, I just have to say the bottle it comes in is stunning and the perfume it self is stunning as well! It is really fresh and florally but not old grandma florally. I also own Taylor Swift Wonderstruck and Enchanted Wonderstruck but this one would have to be my favourite. Next is a skincare product by Benefit. I believe that this skincare range is new by benefit (don't quote me on this) and the product I own is there facial serum. This stuff could almost double as a perfume it smells so good! I also comes in the cutest bottle and comes out a gel like consistence. I use this at night before I go to bed and it makes my skin feel so smooth and it smells nice too! My next and last beauty-ish product is a hand cream by Burt's Bees. This is there Almond Butter hand cream which is also in the cutest packaging! The smell is delightful and the product it self is also. It does leave your hand a tad sticky for a few minutes but then your hands are so smooth. So that is all my beauty favourites, now for fashion! 

 

 
This last category is kind of the miscellaneous category. These next three things are books! And, these are not any old books, they are made by You Tubers! The ones that I own are The Pointless Book By Alfie Deyes, Girl Online by Zoe Sugg and Makeup: Your Life's guide to Beauty, Style and Success Online and Off by Michelle Phan. All three books are very different, the Pointless book is filled with pointless activities!, Girl Online is a really good read about a girl who has a blog (which sparked my inspiration for this blog!) and she goes away and falls in love with a guy with a secret. I really, really, really enjoyed this book and I definitely recommend you to read it too! Michelle Phan's book is a guide to beauty, fashion and everything else girly as well as a small biography of her life and how she evolved to such a huge inspiration to millions of teenage girls. All these books were defiantly going on my favourites and will be something I will always be reading.
