March Favourites

Hello there!

To start off with I'd like to say thank you to Issie Skinner for tagging me in a post and getting you guys to come here! I will be doing that tag very soon!

So how was your March? Mine was extremely stressful school wise. I'm glad it's over actually. Anyway, here are a few things I discovered and enjoyed in March.

1. Soin Du Visage Byphasse Micellar Solution

I was in the discount chemist the other day, somewhere I haven't been in years, and I spotted this. It's pretty much all in French on the front, but has English instructions on the back. I've wanted to try a micellar water type product forever, and so far I'm pretty impressed with this one. It was pretty inexpensive unlike the Bioderma brand. It removes my makeup well, I use 2-3 makeup pads and it does the trick. It does tend to leave my face feeling a tad dry and sticky though, so I just moisturise a little extra.

2. Etude House Brush 351 Eyebrow Brush

I've been experimenting with how I fill in my brows, and I finally bought an angled brush. I really love this one, as it's firm but not hard. I love that it's pink and it was pretty cheap as well. 

3. Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge

I have been wanting to try a makeup sponge, beauty blender kind of product and I saw that Real Techniques released one and decided to give it a go. I'm sorry mine is a little dirty and many looking, I haven't quite figured out how to wash it yet. I love the smooth application it gets because I always have brush stroke marks on my face and don't notice. I use the pointed end for under my eyes, the flat slanted end for my nose and face and occasionally the curved parts for large areas. It helps reduce my foundation cake up.

4. MAC Lipstick in Sin

My boyfriend bought me this for our anniversary and I just adore it. The photo I took makes it look practically black, but it's a deep plum toned maroon, hopefully you can tell that by the swatch. It's matte as well which I just love. 

5. Revlon Colorstay in 110 Ivory for Normal/Dry Skin

An old favourite, I decided to go back to using this eve though it is a little pricier than the Rimmel foundations I've been using. The Rimmel ones are slightly the wrong colour for me, and although this one is a tiny bit pale, I don't mind it. I use the Miracle Complexion Sponge to apply it and it doesn't look cakey or oily and gives me a reasonable coverage, not too heavy. 

Thank you for reading guys! I hope you weren't an April Fool and that this month ahead is a bright one.

Au Revoir!
