January Favorites

I love watching and reading other bloggers or youtubers monthly favorites so I have decided that this year I am
going to do my own monthly favourites. 

Each month I will be sharing things with you that I loved that month.
They won',t be specific categories just random things that I love. 
It could be make up, books, homewares, anything really. 


LOreal Paris Infallible Matte Foundation
This month I have been loving this foundation.
It's a matte foundation which has a great coverage and is meant to last 24 hours (not that I have ever had foundation on for that long). This foundation gives me a flawless base and doesn't look cakey. 

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
 I love this concealer and I don't think I'll be using any other one anytime soon. 
I use the shade fair and mainly use it under my eyes and on any spots that I may have. 


Soap and Glory Hand Food
My hands this time of year get terribly dry so I am always on the search for a hand cream 
that works well and that smells good. 
I don't buy Soap and Glory products that often as I try and buy cheaper brands.
However I do love this hand cream as it keeps my hands hydrated and it smells amazing. 


Dyson Upright DC40
Just before Christmas our hoover broke down and as we always got cheaper ones
that didn't last that long, we decided that we would invest in getting a Dyson. 
We decided to go for the upright one as we have most of the time gone for an upright hoover and I have never been keen on a cylinder hoover. 
We are so glad that we decided to invest in a Dyson as its the best hoover we have
ever had. I just had to include it in this month's favourites. 


The Bloggers Planner
I have to mention the Bloggers Planner. 
It has made me so much organised with keeping track of 
blog posts, stats etc and I am so glad that Stuart got me this for Christmas. 
I love that it's Monochrome which I am really loving at the moment. 


Himalayan Salt Lamp
Another present that Stuart got me for Christmas is a favorite this month. 
I'm not sure if its just a placebo but I am feeling that this does work and 
is keeping the air in our bedroom more clearer.


The Life Changing Magic Of Tidying Up
This book by Mari Kondo is fab. It's made me want to be more organised and 
I am hoping when Stuart is off this week I will have a bit of time to get some organisation done. 



Well, those are my January favourites. 
What are your favourites this month?
I'd love to know, as usual comment below 
and let me know. 


Mini Superdrug Haul

Hi everyone so recently I popped into Superdrug as I wanted to get some new make up bits. 
I don't spend an awful lot on make up and tend to get new bits in drips and drabs but this time 
I picked out seven items to add to my make up collection. 

First up I picked up the Makeup Revolution Antibacterial Brush Cleaner. 
If you read my what I got for Christmas post you would know my sister brought me some of the
Real Techniques make up brushes. So I decided that I needed to get a good brush cleaner. 
This cleaner is specially formulated to keep your makeup brushes clean and free from bacteria.
It is web exclusive and cost £5 for 200ml. I really like the smell of this and you need about 4 sprays per brush to get them clean but for £5 its pretty good as I know a lot of brush cleaners tend to be more expensive. 


I then purchased the Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder I have heard good things about this powder
and it retails at £3.99 so a great price too. I picked this up in number 01 Transparent. 


I also decided to try out a foundation I have heard about but never actually tried before. 
The Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation in number 10 light porcelain. 
I am pale so find it hard when it comes to choosing the right shade foundation. 
I tend to stick with what I know but from time to time I do like try to find something new. 
I've not tried this out yet but have just run out of my usual foundation so tomorrow I'll be giving this a go. 


This is actually the second one I have brought of this mascara and I love it. 
I go for a waterproof mascara all the time as I do find that if I don't my mascara will always smudge. 
This mascara is hands down my favorite so far.  I have tried so many different ones and they just 
haven't been for me. 


Now when it comes to eyeliner I've never really got on with it. 
I use to use a eyeliner pencil but always found it smudged easily and 
I have been too nervous to use a liquid or gel liner so I just didn't bother. 
That is until now I have started using the Collection Extreme 24 Hour Felt Tip Liner 
and love it. I have gone for the color number 5 brown but it comes in other colors too. 
I feel that a black one would be too dark for me but I am now getting much better at doing eyeliner
and just wish I had tried properly before. 

I also picked out the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer again its a product
I have heard good things about and I love. 
I love using this under my eyes to get rid of my dark circles and it's amazing.
I also use it on spots and red areas of my face. 



Last of all is the Collection Matt Lip Butter Pencils I picked up the shade 2 Pumpkin Pie but 
I also own more from the collection which is hence why I went and picked up a shade I don't have.
Pumpkin pie is a orangey shade which looks very pretty. 
I love Matt ones as the color stays on my lips all day. 
In the Matt shades I have this one and the number 1 Marshmallow pink which is also very pretty.
In the regular ones I have the colors cappuccino and vintage rose which are more natural. 
I do love the other colors so will probably buy them at some point. 



I hope you have enjoyed my little Superdrug haul. 
Have you tried or use any of these products?
