Another day, another blog post. Before we jump in I do want to apologise for the lack of posting over the past few months. I have a tonne of uni deadlines and i'm finding it difficult to juggle, uni, my job and my blog.
But never mind, here's what i've been loving over the past few months!
First up, Maybelline 'Fit Me' Foundation. How have I never used this before?! It's incredible. It makes my skin actually look half decent, which never happens, and there's such a variety of shades available. Also, my pet peeve of foundations is when they look cakey. And, it doesn't! Best of all? It's only £6.99! I don't know what else to say, because it's just fab.
*Cue cringe photo of me wearing the lipstick for your benefit*
Next up, a Rimmel lipstick. Now, anyone that knows me knows that I adore Rimmel lipsticks, and this one is no exception. It's their Velvet Matte range, I think it's name is 'The Only 1 Matte Lipstick' , in particular the shade 610 'High Flyer'. This is unusual for me, as i'm usually a dark, cool undertone lipstick girl, but this is a lot pinkier than I usually wear, but I love it! It's perfect for spring and not drying at all. For sure a win win in my books.
When I was in America last summer, of course I visited Sephora. One thing I was desperate to get my hands on was the Tarte 'Lights, Camera, Splashes' mascara. I'd heard so many fab things about it and I was not disappointed. This isn't clumpy, makes my lashes look amazing, and it's not drying. It's easily the best mascara i've ever used. The only downside is that it's a bit of a nightmare to take off. However, with a few cotton pads and my trusty Garnier Micellar water it comes off fine. It just takes a little bit longer than usual.
I feel like this new product is very underrated. In fact, I feel like this brand as a whole is. This is Superdrug's own brand, 'B.', and it's a Blemish Gel. This is INCREDIBLE at getting rid of spots. My skin hasn't been overly bad recently (for the first time in literally 7 years) but this for sure has helped get rid of any bad breakouts I do have. It's like a cooler, older sister to the cult favourite Lush Greased Lightning (which I did a review of back in 2014) .
This next product. I swear, it's my new holy grail skin product. A friend got me a set for Christmas, and it contained this Vitamin E Face Wash by The Body Shop. Oh my goodness. It's amazing. I said earlier in the post that my skin has been good recently, and this is the main reason. It has made my skin SO much clearer, softer and just all round better. I actually cannot rave about this product enough. I might do an in depth review on it if that's something people want to see?
I stocked up on this toothpaste when I was in America last summer, as it's incredible. It is of course the 'Crest 3D White Luxe' toothpaste. It is hands down the best toothpaste I've ever used. It's the only one that I can personally say has made my teeth whiter, and trust me, it's worked so well! If you've ever used the Crest 'Teeth Whitening Strips', this product works perfectly with them.
One major downside? Not available in the UK. it would have to be ordered via eBay where it is super expensive. (around £8 for one tube)
Last, but by no means least, a face mask! I've been absolutely loving the new(ish) L'Oreal Pure Clay Detox mask. It's basically a charcoal mask that dries on your face and then you wash it off. It makes your skin SO smooth! And when it's drying you can see all your pores, it's so gross, but also satisfying. Love, love, love.
That's what i've been loving recently, what have you been loving?
Thanks for reading.
