January Favourites

Hi Everyone!

I can't believe its the last day of January! Already? This month flew by so fast I don't even know where it went. I have to say, I enjoyed January. It was my birthday, I was still off college and I also started college after the break a week ago, it's not so bad yet!

How was your January?

Today I decided to share with you a few of the things that I've been loving throughout this month. 

Beauty

First I have to mention the Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette and the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette. I got these for Christmas and for my birthday and I have been using them ever since. They are both my favourites and I'm sure that I will keep using them in the upcoming months. I did a separate review of these here and here. 

Another beauty favourite this month was the Maybelline Color Tattoo eyeshadow in the shade Creme de Nude. This is something that I used as an eye shadow primer, basically as a base for other eye shadows. These color tattoos are usually compared to MAC's paint pots, in fact they are great dupes.

Creme de Nude makes my eye shadows stay on a lot longer and even makes them more pigmented as they stick to the creamy, gel like formula of the color tattoo. I definitely need more of these as three that I own isn't enough.

Another fave is the Rimmel 1000 Kisses Lipliner in the shade Cappuccino. It's a brown shade lipliner, more on the darker side than nude. I love these shades, I always go for the nudes or light to medium browns. This lipliner is very creamy and it doesn't dry out my lips which is great!

I definitely have to buy more of these in different shades.

I've been loving the Burts Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. I use this every morning and night and it makes my lips super soft. I really like the scent, its peppermint and when you apply it to your lips it tingles a little, not too much and not for a long time. I like this because I feel like I know that it does something to my lips. I also use this under the lipliner that I mentioned above, it glides on a lot smoother.

I have also enjoyed using the Real Techniques Powder Brush. I use it everyday for applying my powder and I really like it. It's very soft and quite big which is great for powder.

I loved this Sally Hansen Complete Salon Manicure Nail Polish in the colour Echante. It's a gorgeous purple/mauve shade. I love Sally Hansen nail polishes! They stay on for such a long time without chipping! 

 I liked using the Aussie hair products this month. I mentioned these in my current hair care routine here.

Lastly in the beauty section of my favourites is this Soap&Glory Sugar Crush Body Wash. I love Soap&Glory body products! They all smell amazing and this scent is one of my favourites. It smells very fresh and leaves the scent on my body which is nice.

Fashion

I only have one fashion favourite this month, I loved other fashion pieces throughout the month but I have mentioned them already so I felt like I didn't want to repeat myself.

This isn't a surprise, I have been obsessed with these Topshop Jamie jeans! I need to get more pairs of these because I want to wear them everyday! They are super comfortable and I think I like these better than the Joni jeans.

Random

As for random favourites of this month, I have been obsessed with Pretty Little Liars! Ever since it started back on the 13th of January I have been hooked on it. I wish new episodes came out more than just once a week as its a struggle to wait a whole week for a new episode! 

My Pandora rose gold bow ring has been another favourite. I got it for my birthday and I have been wearing it everyday! I was never a huge fan of wearing rings but I absolutely love this one! AND its rose gold so how can I not love it!

Last but not least I have been obsessed with my new dressing table from Ikea. If you follow me on Instagram then you might have seen I posted this photo of it. I got it at the beginning of the month and I love sitting at it every morning! I also love being super organised so I was able to organise my makeup just the way I wanted to. It's definitely one of my favourite places in my room besides my bed.
