Hello you beauties!
Is it really the second month of the year already!? Wow! I am really excited for this month. I honestly feel like it's going to be great. But for now, let's see what beauty and non-beauty things I was loving last month.
I really did love the NYX Finishing Powder all throughout January. I usually swear by my Rimmel Stay Matte powder but I wanted to try new powders out, especially a loose powder. So I tried this one and even though it is twice the price of the Rimmel one, it really is worth every penny. It is easy to use/control, doesn't go patchy and keeps you from going oily all day.
I have also loved the Soap and Glory Archery brow pencil and tint this month, which I'm sure I have mentioned in a favourites post before. It is just so quick and easy to use and is always the perfect shade for me. I especially love using it on those mornings where I have very little time to do anything, as it really is not hard to use this product and makes your brows look great.
Throughout the past month I have been using the No7 day and night serums a lot as I have been struggling with dry skin a lot more in the past few colder months. And they really work wonders. A little goes a long way and is not time consuming to apply. It leaves your skin really great and refreshed too!
The last beauty item I have been loving this month is one that will surprise you all. It is matte liquid lipsticks. Yes, you did hear me right! Everyone knows I am usually not a fan of matte lipsticks OR liquid lipsticks, never mind both combined. But I have been finding them a lot easier to use recently, and my favourite one is the Sleek one in the shade 'Birthday Suit'. I'm sure I'll be wearing it a lot more in future months.
Now onto the non-beauty things.
I finally finished watching every current episode of 'Once Upon A Time' and I know I've been loving this show for ages but I thought it deserved a special mention again. This is honestly one of the best TV shows I have ever watched and naturally you'd think that it's slightly childish because it focuses on fairytales but honestly the story lines are amazing and the characters are just perfect.
My next favourite of January is yet another TV show. It's Catfish, which I'm sure you've all heard of. I just find it really entertaining but also quite emotional sometimes. It's just shocking to see how dangerous the internet can be because, even though it might seem harmless at first, catfishing someone can seriously effect their feelings and maybe have even more serious consequences. Stay safe friends!
The final thing I have loved this month is the Sims 4! I think I have mentioned the Sims in a favourites before but that's only because it is so important to me. It gives me chance to escape for a few hours and create some characters (which is what I am used to doing a lot as an English student). Sims is definitely the best simulation game I have ever found and I am starting to prefer the Sims 4 a lot more than Sims 3 now as the content is just so much better and often more realistic now.
So those were the things I have been loving this month. Feel free to share with me everything that you have been loving this month too.
I'll be back on Saturday with another post for you all.

Hello you beauties and hello December!
I hope you're all ready for a very busy December packed solid with posts! Today is the first day of Blogmas, and here I am promising you a post every day until Christmas. It will be hard, but it'll be worth it, and I hope you all stay for the ride.
For the first time ever, other than a chocolate one, I actually have a makeup advent calendar this year! I chose the Makeup Revolution one, as I have always loved this brand and it was such a bargain at only £30! At the beginning of each post this Blogmas, I will tell you what I got that day in my Makeup Revolution calendar.
Day One of Makeup Revolution Advent Calendar: A very lovely nude lipstick
So now, for the first post of Blogmas... my November favourites!
1. The first thing I have been loving this past month are Yankee Candles. I know I have mentioned these in a favourites post before, but I do genuinely love them. Especially at this time of the year. It's amazing having such autumnal scents drifting through the house and I love the warmth that they can often bring. I can't wait to light some nice Christmas candles within the next few weeks.
2. Another thing I have been loving this month is the 'Once Upon A Time' TV show, which I watch literally every day on Netflix. I really love this show, as I love the twist they have put on popular fairy tales and I find it to be a really intriguing show and it always keeps me hooked (pardon the pun). I would definitely recommend this show to you.
3. Recently I have been loving reading books, especially classics such as Wuthering Heights and The Turn of the Screw. Just getting lost in a book can often be so relaxing and it's been great being able to cuddle up with a good months in the cold months.
4. From a previous post, you will know that I have been loving the MUA £1 blushers recently. I love them because they're really easy to use and blend out, have great pigmentation and no fall out. And they're so cheap! Go and buy these if you're looking for a great blusher.
5. Surprisingly, I have been loving using eyeliner this month. Usually I hate eyeliner as it never goes right and I get extremely frustrated. However, now I have been using it a lot more, I have been finding it easier to use and I have been loving how it looks. And I know I'm going to use eyeliner in a lot more of my makeup looks from now on.
6. I have also been loving the Bare Minerals brand this month. This is because I have been adding more and more of their products to my collection recently and these products are usually becoming part of my every day makeup look. I love their products because they're not too heavy on my skin, but look great at the same time. Even though this brand is more expensive than most, I would definitely say these products are worth the money.
So these are the beauty and non-beauty things I have been loving this month. I can't believe that the next time I do a monthly favourites post that it will be 2017! Feel free to share what you have been loving this month with me. I'd love to know! Also let me know if you have been loving anything that I have been loving recently.
I'll be back tomorrow with day 2 of Blogmas for you all!
