I feel like I always do beauty favourites posts, but I can’t help wanting to just round everything up! I mean, my last one was three weeks ago so it’s fine, right? Right. Anyway, the weather has definitely changed up North recently (even though it’s quite grey today!) and became a bit more sunny, so I’ve switched up some of my makeup bits too for more of a fresh glow!
I always go back to my NARS Eyeshadow Duo in Kalahari, but it’s honestly such a perfect little combination of shadows. Worn either alone or together and blended out, it always looks pretty and low maintenance which I love. I’ve got two cheek products that I’m obsessed with recently too, first is the Charlotte Tilbury Cheek to Chic Blush in Sex on Fire which is one I got when I met her back in May (it’s the most beautiful colour combo!) and secondly is the new Urban Decay Afterglow Highlighter in Fireball, which leaves such a radiant peachy gold glow to your complexion. I adore the two together!
For lips I’ve been loving the MAC Versicolour Stain in Preserving Passion which is a very pigmented, pinky-wine kinda shade. It’s a gloss finish, but looks so pretty on it’s own or over a raspberry matte lipstick! I always have a bit of a thing for typically Autumn nail shades in Spring for some reason, so I’ve been going for m favourite Essie Nail Polish in Merino Cool, which is a beautiful purple-mauve shade. It looks so chic on!
Finally, and most importantly, I’ve been reaching more for the facial SPF. I have to look after my skin a lot more since being on Roaccutane, so SPF 30 and above always wins – that’s why I love the Hawaiian Tropic Silk Hydration Face SPF30. It’s non-greasy and sits well under makeup so is perfect for me!
What are your current favourites?
