January Favourites

Hi this is going to be my first favourites post. I don't know whether its going to be a regular thing yet but I've been wanting to do one for a while so onto the favourites.

1. Elf Make up Mist and Set:

This makes such a big difference to my foundation that I just couldn't live without now. I have really oily skin and the mist and set means I don't have to worry about topping up with powder throughout the day.

2. Impulse Very Pink body spray

I've been using this pretty much daily, I really like the scent and how it lasts all day.


3. MUA Blushers


I have shade 2 and shade 5 and I pretty much wear them daily. They quickly became my favourite blushes. They have great pigmentation for a £1 product so I'd recommend picking them up, especially since they are currently giving away free contour pens with any purchase of MUA products in Superdrug.

4. New Look necklace


I wear this with practically every outfit! Its just so wearable and I usually purchase mainly silver items so the gold is a nice change.

5. Reeses Peanut Butter Cups



My last favourite is a food favourite I am truly addicted to! I love love LOVE these peanut butter cups! If you haven't had them you really need to try them!

So that's my January favourites!

17 Nail Varnish Swatches & Clothing Haul

Hi,

As requested here are the swatched of the 17 polishes from my last post.

Top Left, Night Shade (3 coats), Top Right, Night Shade with Glitter Top Coat (1 coat)
Bottom Left, Risky Red (2 coats), Bottom Left, Risky Red with Black Glitter Top Coat


Starry Eyes Eyeliner in Stardust
I don't think I like the Glitter Crackle, I think it looks like a big mess. The polishes were all super shiny though which was great. It took 3 coats of the Nightshade to create a block colour but it dried pretty quickly. The Risky Red looked perfect after one coat, I ended up doing two just in case but it didn't really make much of a difference. I loved the Glitter Top Coat! I only did one coat to test it for a subtle look. I can't wait to completely coat my nails in it haha.
I thought I'd better post up all of the items I've bought recently before I forget, so here's what I have picked up. 

Top L-R, Top,  Primark £6 - Leopard Print Tunic, Asda £12 - Sequined Hat, New Look £5.99, Scarf, Primark £3, Tights, Primark £1.90 - Heart Print Dress, Asda £12 - Bag, Primark £4
Bottom L-R, Vests,  New Look £2.49 each - Wellies, Asda £13 - Leopard Print Flats, Primark £6 - 3 Pack Belts Primark £2 -  Eye Shadow Quad & Blusher Brick Primark £1 



 Here's the Eyeshadows (Top) and the Blusher Brick (Bottom), They are terrible blushers and eyeshadows but great highlighters as all that shows up is a white sheen, strange but still useful. I did get a shock when I took a proper look in the mirror though! I won't be using anymore make up without testing them first again, I can tell you that hehe.

I picked up a few more bits but they are all currently in the wash so I'll post those up another time. P.S. sorry for the terrible pictures.
