So it's favourites time again. I've been trying a lot of new makeup things lately,and I actually have quite a few favourites to tell you about, so I'm going to get right to it.
Wet 'n' Wild Mega Last Lipsticks in 'Rose Bud and Coral-line'
My last post was a review of all these lipsticks, and as I mentioned Rose Bud and Coral-line are my favourite colours. Rose bud is a really nice dusty pink, sort of your-lips-but better colour. Coral-line (see what they did there?:), despite the name, is actually a really bright orange red, much brighter than it's showing up on camera. It actually reminds me a lot of MAC's Lady Danger. But yeah, if you like matte lipsticks, I would definitely recommend giving these a go.
Essence Liquid Ink Eyeliner
My beloved Rimmel Glam Eyes eyeliner ran out recently, so I was on the market for a new liquid eyeliner. I remembered Leanne Woodfull raving about this one and decided it'd give it a go. I actually really like it. It's really black, easy to apply, and stays put all day. And at 2.89, it's a complete bargain!
Wet 'n' Wild Comfort Zone Palette
Upon realising that Wet 'n' Wild had come to Ireland, this palette was the first thing I bought, firstly because it was much-talked about on the internet, and secondly because have a great love for nude eyeshadow palettes. And as you can probably tell from the picture, this palette has been very well-loved in the last month. The quality of the eyeshadows is really nice, and they last quite a long time. I've mostly been using the top two colours all over the lid, with the darker colours in my crease. While they're not quite as good as my all-time favourite MUA eyeshadows, they're a close second and I'd really recommend this palette.
Revlon Colourburst Lipgloss in 'Peony'
After years of being a strictly lipstick person, I think I'm getting more into lipglosses. I'm also getting into spring colours, and this is the perfect combination of both. I've talked about how much I love these Revlon lipglosses before, they're really pigmented and not-sticky at all. The only thing that I have noticed about this one is that the smell is...not great. But if you think you can deal with it, it's a very nice lipgloss.
Essence Nail Varnish in 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow'
I love this nail varnish! The colour is so amazing and unique (the photo isn't really doing it justice but it's a duo-chrome blue/lilac colour) and it lasts surprisingly well. I find that Essence nail varnishes can be a bit hit and miss when it comes to how long they last, but this one stayed put for four or five days without chipping.
Burt's Bees Milk and Honey Body Lotion
This is a really, really nice body lotion. It smells lovely, it's very moisturising and dries really fast. Unfortunately, the full-sized one (this is a mini one I got in a gift-set) is not cheap, but it's so good that I might just have to start saving.
Penneys Statement Necklace
I think I've written about my love of statement necklaces here before, and I recently acquired yet another
one from Penneys. And I like it a lot.
Tesco Ankle Boots
I'd wanted a pair of boots like this for ages, and randomly found this pair in Tesco (where I hardly ever shop). I got them in the post-Christmas sale, so they're probably not still available, but I'm sure you can find similar things elsewhere. I literally wore these all month. They're perfect for the weird weather we're having at the moment, where it's too warm to wear proper boots, but still just that bit too cold for pumps.
Random Favourite: Orange is the New Black
All I can say is, if you have not watched Orange is the New Black yet, go and watch it. Go and watch it now. It's so good. I'm currently watching it a second time.
