Hey Guys,

I know this post is a bit late but I really wanted to be 100% happy with it.

I hope you enjoy!
Starting with
Skincare
Facial wash: Neutrogen Pink Grapefruit face wash
This always wakes me up in the morning with its strong scent of grapefruit.
I really like it as its very gentle on my skin.
Moisturiser: Silcock Base ( I have it in a small travel bottle here)
This is the only moisturiser I have tried that actually helped my very dry skin. I have heard of people using this as a cleanser & even a face mask which I must try.
Face:
Face Primer: M.A.C.'s Prep & Prime
This primer makes my skin really soft & helps keep my make-up on for ages.
Defiantly would love a full size please.

Foundation: No.7 instance radiance
I have been using this foundation for a year & a half now.
I love how it has a radiant finish with medium coverage.
BB Cream: The Body Shop's BB cream
I love using this BB cream it looks & smells really nice.
Concealer: Collections Lasting Perfection Concealer in No.3
I have been using this concealer for at least 2 years. Excellent coverage & lasts hours on my skin.
Powder: Rimmel Stay Matte powder in 003 'Sandstorm
I have dry skin so I never look too shiny but this powder keeps my skin matte after applying foundation.
Face brush: Real Techniques Buffing Brush
I only started using this brush lately for foundation. I was so shocked at how much foundation I was wasting before. It buffs in foundation really well too.

Lips:
Lipstick: Revlon Black Cherry
I left this space blank for so long, Its been really hard to choose a favourite lipstick as I really love all of mine & this year was the year I bought 80% of my lipsticks. If you have been reading my blog for a while you'll know how much I love this berry coloured lipstick by Revlon.
It has to be my favourite.

Lip balm: Babylips in 'Mint Fresh'
This was my holy grail over the past winter months.
It kept my lips soft & non chapped.
Eyes:
Liquid eyeliner: L'oreal Super Liner in 'Intense Black'
I recently purchased a new one of these because my old one had dried out after a year of using it. It stays in place all night & I find it really easy to use ( as I'm not very good at applying liquid eyeliner).
I have recommended it to my sister & friends & now they own it too.

Mascara: Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara in 'Intense Black'
I got this mascara ages ago & it is still is as good as the day I first got it
.However, it can be a little clumpy if u don't wipe some excess product off the wand.
Eyeshadow Brush: M.A.C 217 Blending Brush
I use this brush every time I apply eyeshadow,
It blends colours really well.
Honorable Mention
M.A.C 239 Shader Brush
Eyesshadow: M.A.C.'s Sable
I have been wearing this shade a lot towards the end of the year. I forgot how much I had loved it. Its a very pretty shimmery brown shade.
I like to wear it all over the lid with a matte brown shade in the crease.

Eyeshadow Palette: M.U.A's palette in 'Undress Me'
This is my current favourite palette, the colours are a beautiful mix of matte, shimmery & glittery.
Very pigmented, I bought this for £4 in Superdrug, great value.

Hair:
Dry Shampoo: Batiste Blush
I have tried a fair few dry shampoos & I find this works best in my hair. Let me know what scent you prefer. I think I prefer the tropical scent.

Shampoo: Mane & Tail Herbal Essentials
I used this on the lead up to my sisters wedding, in the hopes my hair would grow a bit longer. I did see results, but I recommend using a moisturising conditioner as well as I felt this shampoo dried the ends of my hair a little.
Conditioner: Aussie Miracle Shine Conditioner
I don't have a picture to show you because I have just ran out of this stuff. Its a bit pricey but well work it. It reduced the dryness of the ends of my hair, & made my hair soft overall.
Heat Protectant: Charles Worthington
This smells really great & does its job as far as I can see. Its almost gone thought so I will have to pick up a new one. (don't smell it, it will burn you nose, you have been warned!)

Styling Product: Tony & Guys Sea Salt Spray
My hair is naturally wavy & can be a bit bushy & frizzy. This salt spray really helps with that, I also use this after I have curled my hair it helps really define the curls.

Utensil: Babyliss Curling Wand
I used this curler almost every time I go out with friends I love how the barrel is wide then goes narrow. This results in beautiful natural curls.
Body:
Shower Gel: Soap & Glory Clean On Me
This smells devine & luxurious, its almost gone through. I'm currently using Soap & Glory's Sugar Crush body wash & I am loving that too.
Perfume: Ted Baker Butterfly Wings Body spray
I discovered this scent a few months ago & it has been all I have been wearing (scent wise of course). Boots online told me it has elegant bergamot and red fruit, highlighted with tuberose and patchouli. So there ya go, if your into your bergamot then give this a smell. ( I have no idea what bergamot is ).

Body Scrub: Soap & Glory Flake Away
Smells great & makes my skin really soft.
