Mac Cremesheen Lipstick - Speak Louder

Another month coming very close to its end! Lets not go over how fast it has been (though it has been fast), however my most worn lipstick this month had to be this one. It is the Mac CremeSheen Lipstick in the shade 'Speak Louder'.

I have never had a Mac lipstick before but coveted them so much! My sister knew this and bought me this for Christmas. I was over the moon with this present-as anyone would be!

 The packaging is the well-known Mac 'bullet style' packaging and there is no fault here at all.

 Have any of you ever smelled a Mac Lipstick? I have and even the scent is amazing, it smells almost like sweet play dough? Don't know how i came to that analogy but there you go.

 The texture is very soft and creamy hence the 'cremesheen lipstick' and it has tons of pigment in. Some days to just tone the lipstick down i dab this on my lips and also apply a nude lipstick over the top. It is a very long lasting lipstick, which inevitably wears away when you eat, so i would recommend keeping it in your bag in case you need to re-apply. 

Overall this is one of the best lipsticks i own! Have you ever owned a Mac Lipstick? What did you think?

November Favourites!

Another month that has whizzed by, still cannot believe it. I know i say it every month and will probably say it for all the months to follow.

However, finally it is here the real Christmas Advent countdown, my advent calender is already awaiting my opening *I have the Cadburys Santa one if you wanted to know*. Also tomorrow i am putting up my Christmas tree, so much excitement already.

Anyway lets end this month on a high with November favourites!

1. Bio Oil 60 ml. This has been great for banishing those stretch marks from ever appearing on my body again.

2. Revlon Lip Butter- Crème Brulee £7.99. A beautiful nude for any look!

3. Proactiv oil free mosituriser £15.95. A lovely moisturiser that really keeps my face look bright even in the coldest of days.

4. Vaseline Rosy Lips Lip Balm. This has been in my life forever, although as winter tis' the season of chapped lips this has been my saviour, while adding colour in my life also.

5. Bobbi Brown Pot Rouge for lips and Cheeks in Pale Pink. A delicious shade of pink for winter as i would say it is more of a darker pink.

6. Garnier Body Moisturiser Mango. This has been a staple winter product as the moisturises my legs so much that people actually notice and starting feeling my leg (weird i know). Without this i would feel very sorry for the skin on my legs.

So those are my November favourites, what are yours?

Sally Hansen Nails: NOFT

In the midst of Winter I see so many dark nail polishes around, and felt a bit left out. So i scavenged through my nail polishes (most of them are pink) and found this beautiful colour from Sally Hansen. 

This colour is Chocolate Haute 630, which is such a luscious name for a nail polish.

I can't remember how much i paid for this exactly but i think around £6.99.

This is a brown with quite a powerful red undertone in there. I wore this with a black leather skirt and white collared blouse and it looked lovely with it.

 It glides onto your nail and the brush is mice and wide, which is great for those of us who are not amazing at painting nails (me).

To me, this is the perfect colour for winter and i will definitely be wearing a lot of this this season.

Yankee Candle- Christmas Eve

With all the Christmas celebrations finally coming to life, I decided to start this season off with a seasonal candle. Yankee candles have been a part of my life for quite a while, especially 'Beach Walk' for my bathroom, which smells so fresh and bathroomy. The moment i smelled this i knew this had to be a part of my life. 

This is the Yankee Candle- Christmas Eve.

I cannot explain the scent other than Christmas.

It is not too pricey as the one i have below is about £3.50 and the medium sized one is £16.99.

So i thought i would share this absolutely breath-takingly delicious candle with you as i adore it.

What is your favourite Christmas/Winter candle?

MUA Bronzer Shade 2

I have yet another MUA product for you lovelies today, it is the MUA Bronzer Shade 2 - so not the lightest bronzer and it is £1.

The packaging itself is not that bad...however it does look a bit cheap and tacky. It does not break easily which is great if i am keeping it in my bag, so i have not worries of it bronzing the things in my bag.

 It is quite a dark bronzer for my skin tone but a light swish over the cheeks works well for me. It makes me look less like a sheet of paper and gives me a nice glow. Although i wouldn't recommend this for contouring as it is quite a muddy colour and won't make you look right.

As you can see from the swatch below there is a lot of pigmentation in this. Perfect if your just getting into Make Up or on a tight budget.

 Overall if push came to shove, i would choose my Benefit Hoola Bronzer but this is a very good bronzer in comparison.

Revlon Lip Butter- 096 Macaroon

I have been hiding this is my 'beauty drawer' all summer, but when September arrived (finally) this is the lipstick i was most looking forward to wearing. This is my absolutely favourite Autumn/Winter Lipstick.

I have to say the packaging of all the Revlon Lip Butters are not impressive for a £7.99 Lipstick, but they are 'alright'.

 This lipstick is a deep pink/red and is brilliant with a fair skin tone as a bold red can sometimes pale you out.
I love the texture of this as it is so smooth and moisturising, i love that is does not dry out my lips. Though i have heard that it is hit and miss depending on which colour you get.
It has a gentle shimmer, nothing too bold. The wear would be around 3-4 hours, which is fine for me as i love re-applying lipstick anyway.

It gives a wonderfully glossy finish, so no need to wear lip gloss, unless you want to. 

I just love it!
