I can't believe it's the end of the month already! Where has the time gone? Anyways, I have been wanting to do a monthly favourites post for a while, and now it's finally the time to do one :)
I wear pretty much all of these products every day, with the exception of the lip product, and I like to alternate between the products in my collection each day.
My first favourite is ModelCo's Lash Xtend mascara. ( RRP $28 ) I received this in a magazine a while back, and was kinda skeptical about it, but it is now my all time favourite mascara. Not only does it lengthen lashes, it also separates them well and makes them look natural. You can also build up the thickness of the product for a more dramatic effect, without clumping. I also love that this comes with a little mirror on the side of the packaging. It's perfect for your makeup bag. I definitely recommend this if you're in the market for a higher end mascara.
The second product I have been loving this month is my Revlon PhotoReady bronzer in Bronzed and Chic. (I can't find the RRP price, but it is around the $25 mark I believe.) I had heard great things about this from other beauty bloggers/YouTubers, and wanted to try it myself. I received a $5 off voucher for Revlon and thought it was the perfect opportunity to try it. Now I can't live without it! It's perfect for adding a subtle sunkissed glow to my skin, and it's not muddy or orange at all. I apply it on my cheeks, jawline and forehead with a kabuki brush, and blend it in well. I love that it has four different shades in it, which allows you to customise the darkness of the product - it's great for most skin tones.
The other Revlon product I have been loving lately is the Just Bitten Balm Stain in Honey. (RRP $17.95) This is a perfect every day colour, and just glides onto the lips effortlessly. The staying power is great, and I definitely recommend this colour in particular.
I only have one eyeshadow from MAC, and I can already say that I'm in love. They are buttery soft, long wearing and beautifully pigmented. My favourite eyeshadow this month is MAC's Woodwinked. I wear this a lot, and I find that you can easily build up the colour to go from day to night. It's a golden/bronze shimmery shade, and I find it just breathtaking. This eyeshadow is definitely an investment, and I plan on saving up for a few more to add to my collection.
The last favourite this month is a fragrance. I have to be honest with you, I'm crap at describing fragrances, so I've Googled what this scent is described as. haha. This perfume oil is from MOR, and is called Belladonna. I'm in love with it. I wear it every day, and I'm considering making it my signature fragrance. Here's the description: "Belladonna is a sweet symphony of spring with the notes of narcissus, Moroccan roses and pink tulips, revived with sparkling lemon and sweetened by the base of cassis, sandalwood, vanilla and musk."
My unfavourite this month is the Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara. This product didn't work for me at all. I only used it twice and hated it both times. It's a very dry, clumpy formula and I find the brush way to big for my liking. I wouldn't really recommend this mascara to anyone, because there are so many other drugstore mascaras that are way better than this one. This probably won't be repurchased in the near future.
Until next time,
Shelley xx
