{Contains previously gifted product} Now that its October I think its officially time for another Beauty Favourites. My last favourites post was back in July and since then I have found a whole new set of beauty products that I can't live without. In today's post, I'll be sharing with you my beauty favourites from the last couple of months!


ABH Mini Norvina Pro Pigment Palette Vol 1

Whenever I just look at this palette it makes me want to smile, the brightness in the colours and the gorgeous pink and purple shades just make my day. This palette was a birthday present from my boyfriend and ever since then I have been using it non stop. This product has been on my wish list of palettes for a while now ever since I saw all the mini palettes get released from ABH. The first thing that attracted me to this palette is the gorgeous shades, out of the 9 shades you get 2 amazingly beautiful shimmer shades and 7 matte shades that have the best pigmentation. You may not belive me but this is actually my first Anastasia Beverly Hills palette and it definitely didn't disappoint and it made me want to go out and buy more even if they are slightly pricey. When I use this palette it always pushes me out of my comfort zone because there isn't really one neutral shade in the palette and that is one of the reasons why I love it. This palette is described as a Pro pigment palette because the shades aren't actually eyeshadows because they can cause slight staining which has happened to me but it lasts a matter of days before the pink tinge wears off and it definitely hasn't put me off from using it all the time!


Primark Beauty False Lash Queen Mascara 

Now we're going right to the other end of the price scale with this mascara from Primark that's only £3! I don't really know what made me buy this product but it was there and I wanted to give it a go and I definitely wasn't disappointed. This mascara has been a real gem to add to my collection, it isn't like my normal mascara favourites because the wand is a bristle brush instead of a plastic brush which is my usual favourite but this mascara just seems to work. For £3 you can't really go wrong, it makes my lashes look slightly longer, adds volume and separates the lashes without making them look too clumped or spidery. I have worn this mascara all day at work wearing a mask and a visor and it still holds up really well, it doesn't flake away smudge over the eyes even if I've been wearing it for 8 plus hours. This is a perfect everyday mascara that I think everyone should try because it's so affordable.  

Rimmel Scaldaleyes Precision Micro Eyeliner 

This isn't a new product for me but it is a recent rediscovery. I used to use it years ago but with there being so many new releases out there and new products popping up all the time I moved on to something else and totally forgot about it. A few weeks ago I needed a new liner and saw this one in Superdrug and thought id give it another go! What I really like about this liner is the brush tip, it's quite small which I find is the perfect size to create an easy liner look and cat-eye without it being too difficult. The applicator of this product is a sponge tip that's pretty flexible which makes it so much easy to do different eyeliner looks. When this liner is on it stays all day and doesn't fade away which I love, it also dries down to a matte. This liner also doesn't dry up too fast which makes it a lot easier to apply!


PMD Clean*

I have had this product for a few months now and when I was first sent it I loved it and used it religiously but then as I do I stopped using it and forgot about it a bit and then a few weeks go I decided to start using it again with my current skincare routine and have fallen back in love with it. I love using this cleansing devise when im doing my second cleanse using the Inkey List Salicylic acid cleanser When I use this product I like to add the cleanser to my skin so its foamy and then add a small amount to the cleansing brush and then start using it to cleanse my face. After I've used this product my skin feels super clean and fresh and it also makes sure that all traces of makeup and oil is removed from my skin making it ready for the next product in my routine.    

Paulas Choice 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant 

I have officially found my favourite skincare product! I have been using this product for a couple of weeks now and I have seen such a huge difference in my skin that I definitely will be buying the full size and continuing to use it. Since using this product I have noticed such a difference in the oiliness of my skin, I have pretty oily skin, I would usually need to powder my face numerous times a day to make me look matte but now since using this liquid exfoliant I only need to powder once and sometimes I don't need to powder at all and that is a true exfoliant to me. Now that I have switched from physical exfoliants to liquid exfoliants I have also seen a big difference in the dryness of certain areas of my face, this product seems to balance out my skin leaving me with a more normal skin type which I love. 


The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 2% Serum 

Before I tried anything from The Ordinary I was definitely sceptical, I never understood how they could create these products with such good ingredients for such a small price, this serum alone was £5! I have been using this product now for a few weeks just like the product above and it has also helped to improve my skin and stop all the breakouts I was having. I am still getting some maskne around my chin and jaw area from wearing a mask all day but my forehead is now the cleanest its ever been. I used to get the odd hormonal spot always on my forehead around my hairline but since using this serum I have had no new spots pop up! When I use this serum it soaks into the skin in seconds and leaves my skin feeling amazingly smooth, this product can cause some irritation but luckily I haven't had any reactions to it. I have been using this for around 4 weeks and I still have like 3/4 of the product left so a little really goes a long way.

  1. I am a huge fan of the Scandaleyes eyeliner - the tip on it makes it so much easier to get my liner right compared to so many other options that are out there! It has been one of my go to liners for a while now.
