April Favourites 2012

Can you believe that it is MAY already? I know I can't! This month flew by so fast, its may know soon it'll be the summer whoop whoop xx


New month means new favorites, so here's what I've been loving for the month of April! 




                                                             

                                 
 1. Sleek eyeshadow palette-Au naturel 601
There are 12 eyeshadows in the palette and there mostly cool toned colours. There a mix of both matte and shimmery shadows. If you are a fan of neutral eyeshadow colours this would be a great palette for you, the eyeshadows are pigmented, smooth, easy to blend and long lasting i found with these eyeshadows i didn't need an eyeshadow base/primer because the don't crease on me. This would probably be my favourite palette from sleek.

2. Rimmel london Wake Me Up foundation-soft beige 200
I love this foundation when i don't want full coverage when i want a natural looking makeup. The foundation is a medium to full coverage it makes my face look flawless and still lets my skin shine throw. Its cheap and last long and looks lovely on the skin.


3.Maybelline the colossal volume express mascara-black
It curls my lashes and separates them very well I have not had any issues with it transferring on my eyelids or  flacking of during the day. 


4. Primark eyelash curler
This is the best eyelash curler I've come across and the cheapest its around £1 and can be purchased at primark. It just works great for my eyelashes gives me a lot of curl its just really good for the price. the handles are real sturdy and i would really recommend them.


5. MUA eye shadow-shade 19 Matt
The MUA eyeshadows are my favourite products from the brand there great if you want to experiment with eyeshadows and you don't want to spend a lot of money on a more higher end product i would recommend them for that i use them for eyeshadow but i lately started using them for my brows and they work excellent for that. 


6. Maybelline gel eyeliner-black
I purchased the gel eyeliner a few weeks ago and i am really enjoying it. I bought it because I've seen a lot of youtubers using it and they really like it to so I thought I would pick it up, I have always used mac's fluidline but recently i have been using this more than my fluidline so i definitely would purchase it again.
    
7. Palmers moisturizing lip balm-cocoa butter formula
It smells lovely and feels lovely on the lips. i've always use Vaseline but when i bought this i haven't used Vaseline, If your looking for a lip balm which is cheap and good i would recommend buying this.

8. Avon true colour blush-classic neutral
I recently found this in my collection and thought it would be a great neutral blush, I have also used it as a contour and i also enjoy using it for contouring to the brush is great to its thick and soft i love using the brush with this product.


9. Elf powder brush 
I use this in applying my liquid and powder foundation. I love the way this brush gives you a smooth airbrush flawless finish. Since its dense its perfect for picking up powder foundation and buffing it.  

10.  Boots Natural Collection body spray-Vanilla
I love this scent, this is my favourite scent out of the whole range of them. its a good scent if you love vanilla. I find that it stays on my clothes for quite long. Plus it's a bargain for its money! and you do get a lot in the bottle so it will last you ages.

Mac Fix Plus is a skin refresher/finishing mist that you use after or before you do your makeup. You spray a few mists on your face when doing your makeup to set your makeup . I use it after finishing my makeup i mist it on my face to take away the powdery look and it just makes your makeup look natural and glowy this is one of my favourite things from mac.










                          What is your favourite thing from MAC?
