My February Favorites

Hello Everybody,
So, I have been wanting to do a monthly favorites post for quite so time now. And I know most beauty bloggers and vloggers do monthly favorites, but I enjoy reading them and I know most of you do too.

So before farther ado, lets get started.

POND'S Cold Cream Cleanser:

This is a moisturizing deep cleanser and  makeup remover.
Lets start with the container, it's made from a thick heavy plastic, which gives it a high quality feel. I uses this mainly as a makeup remover, after using a remover wipe. I love how this leaves my skin feeling, and it has a lovely light scent of roses.

Aveeno Ultra Calming Foaming Cleanser:

This is a great face wash. I tend to prefer foaming face washes in general, and I think this is the best one I've found in a long time.

I use it after the cream cleanser, although technically you're not supposed to need to.

Physicians Formula Concealer Twins:

I have looked high and low for a good concealer, and I really think this is my favorite so far. One side is a light skin tone, and the other is has a yellowish tint. I tend to use the skin toned one more often. But they both have good coverage, and don't feel heavy or sticky.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion:

I have the in the color Original, I have tried it in four other colors but found this one to be the most versatile of them. It is wonderful for keeping you're eyeshadow where it's supposed to be, and my eye makeup it always the last to where of.                

Hard Candy  Pinking Of You Eyeshadow:

This is a rear palate for me, first off the packaging is adorable, I really like the way Hard Candy has do their palates. And I use all the colors in the palate, which I don't on any of my other eyeshadows. I tend towards the neutral pink and gold tones then it comes to the eyes anyway, and this palate gives a shimmery twist to you're usual neutrals.

Flower Take A Brow Complete Brow Kit:

I have tried all kinds of brow products, and this one is the best by far. I was starting to wonder if there was a brow kit out there that was both effective and affordable, when I heard another blogger say how much they loved this one. Needless to say I was not disappointed.The best thing about the kit for me, is that one of the color is a perfect match for me.

Physicians Formula Happy Booster in Pink:

This the best blush I have ever used! It is a faint pink, not to bold or bright, which is a must for me. I have used a few other Happy Boosters before, but this one is definitely my favorite. The packaging is sooo cute! And I love the hearts in the blush it's self. It also has a slight scent of lavender. I can't help but smile every time I use this product.

Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls:

I have this in Translucent Pearl. I have had this powder for almost a year, but I guess you could say I rediscovered it. It could almost be used as a highlighter, but I use it just to give my face a little glow.  

Lancôme Gloss In Love In 162:

Gloss In Love is so far, my favorite lip gloss collection. The packaging is adorable, the applicator is perfect for shape of the lips and it feels great on. It really is the perfect red because it's not to bold, yet it's slightly shimmery. I mostly wear this when my hair is up, which I think must long haired girls will understand.

Fancy Fragrance Mist By Jessica Simpson:

This mist has made it on my favorites list mainly because it smells like vanilla, and vanilla is my favorite scent. Other then that it's much like any other mist.

 

Well That concludes my February favs, I hope you found this helpful and, or entertaining.

What is you're favorite product this month?

If you have tried any of these let me know what you thought of them.

Have a weekend.

MY DAILY MAKEUP

 Hello Everybody,
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend.
So today I thought I would share my daily makeup, and why I use what I use. I hope you find helpful and or amusing. Before I start, let me tell you a bit about my skin. I have a fair skin tone, my skin is oily with dry zones around my nose, and between my brows. And I get random breakouts along my jaw line, brow line and hair line.
So here goes.

 AVEENO CLEAR COMPLEXION:
I use the Daily Moisturizer. It is supposed to help prevent breakouts, although I haven't noticed a big difference in that direction I have seen that it helps my skin heal faster. And I have also noticed a big difference in the dryness of my skin.

 EOS:
There is not much to say about this, other then the fact that I Love It!
I usually get the Vanilla and Coconut milk. I love the way it smells, and makes my lips feel. My lips tend to be really dry, and this is the best thing I've found.

RIMMEL HIDE THE BLEMISH CONCEALER:
In 103 Soft Honey. what can I say. this concealer conceals pretty well, it's blends well, and that's about it. I would like to be able to say that I love this concealer, but the best I can say is that is works for now, but I'm keeping my eyes open for something better.

RIMMEL MATCH PERFECTION HIGHLIGHTER & CONCEALER:
In 230 Fair/Light. This is a really nice highlighter, I use it under my eyes and along the bridge of my nose. I have found that it's great at brightening but not as good at concealing.

RIMMEL STAY MATTE FOUNDATION:
I use the 010 Light Porcelain. When I first started to use this foundation I have to admit I didn't like it, was heavy and didn't sit right. Then it hit me, you don't need half as much as you're used to using. when I started using less I began to really love it. I have tried quite a few foundations, such as L'Oreal', Flower, Lancôme and other Rimmel foundations. This one is my new favorite.

 PHYSICIANS FORMULA HAPPY BOOSTER BLUSH:
Glow and Mood Boosting Blush in Pink. I Love this blush SO MUCH! Okay for one thing, I find myself drawn to Physicians Formula anyway, I mean their packaging is adorable, the product is amazing and I love the hearts in the Happy Booster. Bring it back to a practical level, my skin has been acting up lately and I had been using a inexpensive blush, since I started back up on this I have noticed quite a difference .

 PHYSICIANS FORMULA MINERAL GLOW PEARLS:
In Translucent Pearl. I just recently got this powder to replace my old powder highlighter, and found that this one is more well rounded. I have used it as a highlighter on my cheek bones and nose, and as a regular power to give my face slight glow which I love.

 ELF CREAM EYELINER:
In Black. This is my first cream eyeliner, and I am quite pleased. It has a good hold for the most part, although if you use it for a cat eye it may shift a little, so if you have eyes that run it might not be the best thing for you. But I do like the way the cream liner goes on.

 MAYBELLINE LASH SENSATIONAL MASCARA
In Very Black. There is not much to say about this because it's "sensational everybody says so" If you get that quote you have my respect. Anyway I love this mascara, it is the best non waterproof mascara I've come across .

PAULA DORF EYESHODOW PALETTE:
I think this palette is a imitation of Urban Decay's Naked 3 Palette. The quality is not quite as good as the Naked 3, but it dose have a good hold. I am glad I have this palette because I try to save my N3 for special occasions. The colors I use are Strange for the lid, Mugshot for the crease, and dust for the lid and up to the brow.

And that's a full list of the makeup I use daily.
Please let me know if you have tried any of these, and you favorite daily makeup.
I hope guys have a great weekend.
Anna.
