Monthly favourites.

Every month i always seem to mix it up and use the same products again and again. Like a rotation system ;)

Lips-
MAC - Pervette. I didn’t like this lipstick when i first brought it, but it grew on me. Lovely when the sun hits it and it has such a pretty shimmer. I’ve been wearing it a lot, of a top coat to my nude lipsticks and such, I can see this being a winner this spring!

MAC- Pink Nouveau. This little beauty makes another appearance on my blog, I love it, love it, love it!

MAC - Candy Yum Yum. I’d be lying if i said I didn’t get a little excited when I got this lipstick as it was hard to get! And since neon lips are so on trend and I love a good pink lip, I love it! It’s the only matte texture that i love really love!

MAC - Hue. I got this today on my little trip to mac (Which I’ll blog about later, got some great stuff to you all!;)) I can see it being my go to lipstick this month, so easy to wear and doesn’t make me look dead.

MAC - Naked lip liner. I got this because i’ve got rosy coloured lips, and using this liner just brings out the colour of every lipstick! Even better with nude lip colour. But overall love! I hope they make it apart of their permeant line, as i’d love to get more!

Face- (My skin is in a great condition at the moment so i’ve not being using foundation)
BENEFIT - High beam. I have an undying love for highlighters, and high beam lives up to my exceptions.

Brooke. XX.

Monthly Favourites. X.

Each month I’m going to do a post on my favourite products of the month may it be skincare or makeup and what I like about them and my own little review!



NARS illuminator:
I’ve been looking for a new highlighter/illuminator for awhile since my current one is too glittery and vibrant (I’ll keep it for special occasions! Still a beautiful product. It’s Mac iridescent powder in silver dusk) so I w
anted a toned down product which still offered a highlighted effect. Being a Nars gal I’ve always been aware of their illuminators but ever never tried
them out. So today I went into space nk and tried out the illuminator in the shade orgasm. I was a bit on the fence as I wasn’t sure I liked the colour, but when I put it against my very pale skin and blended it. (Perfect for blending!) It was beautiful! Not too much and not too little! It’s a really universal product that can be mixed with foundation, body lotion, highlighter etc. I love the new packing too, my compact then the older model. I recommend only using a pea size amount or less. Less is more girls!










MAC Satin lipstick in Pink nouveau:
Since it’s coming into the spring I like to start wearing brighter and lighter lipstick and glosses, I came across this shade when I read this is what Lady Gaga mod-
elled her Viva Glam after but she made hers a lot lighter. I found Gaga’s viva glam far too light for me and Pink nouveau is perfect. This is a shade I can see myself wearing a lot! Added bonus that it’s a satin texture as that’s my favourite! Yay!

What I love about it -
Long lasting
Very pigmented
Non drying
Fades into a gorgeous colour
