Last month I found myself experimenting quite a lot with beauty products. Firstly I would like to tell you guys about this amazing shea butter hand cream from L'Occitane, it smells and feels divine on the hands, it literally moisturises all cracks and I promise you that your hands will no longer be ashy. This YSL foundation was also featured in my previous 'favourites' post, I'm still loving it and perhaps a review might soon follow if anyone out there's interested; or you could simply watch reviews of it on YouTube. The Essie nail polish is something I tend to return to every now and then, it's especially great for the summer season as is the deep blue from Rimmel London.
Let me tell you a funny story regarding the Too Faced bronzing powder and how I went about buying it. Back in March when I was in Copenhagen I decided to go to Sephora because my Studio Fix powder had shuttered to pieces, one lady at the Too Faced counter recommended this powder so we agreed that I test it. As soon as she opened the packaging my nostrils got hit by the scent of chocolate, seconds later - stupidly my mouth was open - my taste buds got some chocolate on them; I sat in shock and starting sniffing the air for where the chocolate smell was coming from, I didn't realise till it was too late that I had just swallowed a bit of the chocolate soleil powder... Since that time I haven't partaken in the task of eating powder, but I will tell you it's a bonus having a chocolate scented powder and leaves your face smelling like a candy.
Vaseline in my opinion is a product everyone needs to have in their home. I usually apply it to my lashes and brows at night to grow them out and also to reduce mascara clumps. I used the L.A. setting spray almost everyday in the month of May and I've found that it actually works because my face doesn't become oily till after 2-4 hours which is a big step-up from before. The Makeup Store blush has probably been too long in my collection and needs to be replaced or something along that road, it's my favourite with the perfect shimmer that's neither too little or too overwhelming.Those were my beauty favourites from the month of May, what products made your favourites list? x
