Hope you had an amazing Christmas, I know I did!
Now it's winter I have to look after my skin and hair against the weather, I've got some products that are definitely worth buying.
I've also got some new beauty tools to make sure you look glam for those New Year's parties.
1) I'm not so keen on is that it has a very 'dewy' look which, as a naturally oily skinned person, is not particularly appealing. However, I use some matte powder over the top and this stops any excess shine to give me the perfect base look.
2) It can be counted as a 'thick' or 'heavy' foundation on your skin as it is quite sticky. It covers my acne scars on my cheeks really well. It is super long wearing which I love as I had foundations that wear off within a couple of hours but taking it off at the end of the night is a struggle.
The Bumble and Bumble hair primer is amazing. It smells fabulous and it protects my hair from the winter sun and the harsh heat of a hairdryer and/or my straighteners.
Bare Minerals' brow pencil is a must- have for anyone who cares about their brows. It sculpts and defines but also has a little brush so you can shape your brows the way you like.
Partner the brow pencil with Urban Decay's gel and you have the ultimate brows. This gel darkens my pale brows and makes they easier to style.
The Ecotools custom buffer brush is perfect for even blending. I use it to apply my contour kit and blusher but I also use it to blend my matte powder.
This Nivea day cream is a perfect moisturiser for my skin type as it's not too heavy which can make my skin really oily and its not too light. It has an SPF of 15 to protect my delicate skin from the harsh UV rays. It makes my skin smooth and soft and sits beautifully under makeup.
Colour Freedom have a range of bright dyes and I picked the purple for this month. As I'm sure all of you know, I love to dye my hair different colours and usually I use BLEACH LONDON's range but I've decided to branch out. This dye is amazing because you don't have to use a lot of dye to colour your whole head and it doesn't fade really fast (unlike a lot of brands). It also takes to your hair really well. When dying it, I tried to get mine as white as possible but there were some yellow tones and the dye covered all of them perfectly.
This is the colour that the purple produced which is a really pretty pinky/purple colour.
I've only used this pasteliser once and it didn't really work on my hair because my previous colour was too dark but I've heard good reviews about this product and I cannot wait to try it out.
SMASHBOX's Photo Finish Primer is a MUST HAVE in my makeup bag this winter. Its so smooth and just helps apply foundation easily then keeps it in place throughout the day.
Lastly, Soap and Glory is one of my favourite brands ever and this scrub does not disappoint. I've had little bumps on the back of my biceps as a teenager and they've always annoyed me so I decided to exfoliate them once a week and they disappeared! This scrub also smells gorgeous like every other Soap and Glory product.
Until next time :) Befffyyy xxx♡
