May Favorites

Another month has gone buy and we are now half way through this year! Time really has gone by quite quickly. Today, as the title says, I will be showing you my May Favorites.

Sorry about the quality of this picture. I have been trying to figure out how to take pictures when there is absolutely no sun out. Got to love winter hey.

Here are this months favorites:
Lily Cole Puff on Radiance from The Body Shop
The Body Shop released the Lily Cole range a while back but I managed to pick up this adorable highlighter on sale. I love that the shimmer in it is quite subtle. I will definitely have a full review up soon.

Stila Hydrating Finishing Powder
This is the only finishing powder that I have come across that does not make my skin look incredibly dry. I do not think I could use another finishing powder after trying this one.

Nivea Naturally Even Moisturizer
Theres not much I can say about this moisturizer. Its perfect for combination skin and does not leave my skin looking oily, which is a look I always try and go for.

Mac Paint Pot in Groundwork
If you follow me on instagram, you will know that I picked up a few Mac goodies, including the Paint Pot. I love that I can wear this as a eyeshadow base or as an eyeshadow on its own. It is a perfect natural everyday color.

Estee Lauder Pure Colour Eyeshadow palette 
My sister received this palette as a gift a while back and decided to give it to me. I love that there are so many neutral colors in it and that it comes with a really good  quality brush.

If you would like me to review any of these products, please let me know.

April Favourites

We are already one week into May and I am a bit delayed but these are my most reached for products for April. I decided to make this a monthly feature on my blog because I love reading other peoples monthly favorites posts.

Sun screen may seem to be a strange on my list of favorites but I have found that Cape Towns weather is quite confusing lately. This bottle of sunscreen is tiny. I can pop it in my bag and if I see I require something with a higher SPF, I can just use this. The Stila Tinted moisturizer, in the shade Tan, is perfect for college because it covers quite well and it dries with a matte finish. I am completely obsessed with concealer and I am currently testing the MAC Moisture Cover concealer in the shade NC 35. I absolutely love it and I have no complaints. I have mentioned before that I love Pretty by Elizabeth Arden and I found myself grabbing that bottle every morning. My MAC creme blend blush in Posey is something I use daily because my skin has been dry lightly and a cream blush helps hide that.
I have saved the best for last. My Real Techniques Stippling brush. Real Techniques is not available in South Africa but a cousin of mine ordered this online for my birthday. I know you read my blog, so thank you! I can never go back to using a normal foundation brush now.

Have you tried any of the products I mentioned about? What products have you been using a lot lately?
