September Favourites

DSC_1863

I’m a little late with my September (and completely forgot August) but here’s a few of my favourite finds this month;

Bourjois Bio Detox Foundation (£10.99): I bought this because I wanted a cheaper foundation to use everyday than my Double Wear. It’s silicone free, and has a matte finish. Its a really nice non-heavy foundation that last well on me and provides medium coverage.

Estee Lauder Sensuous Nude (£47.00 for 50ml): I love this perfume, it’s got a really warm musk scent, with floral notes. I love that it isn’t sweet, it feels really sophisticated. Definitely a fragrance I will be repurchasing.

MAC Wood-Winked (£9.50): This was one of the first MAC shadows I bought, and at first I wasn’t that keen (I was on a bit of a matte kick) I been loving using it for a warm brown smokey eye lately. It also looks great with greens.

Purity Facial Wash (£4.99)*: I’ve been using this facial wash twice a day, and I really love it, its simple to use and removes make–up with ease. (Full Review)

Sleek Oh So Special Palette (£6.49): This palette has got some really gorgeous colours, as with most Sleek eyeshadows they’re all really pigmented and easy to blend. I particularly love the pink/gold duochrome on the bottom row.

Oral B Complete (£3.49): I bought this out of curiosity, it’s been pegged as being great for whitening etc. I don’t know that my teeth are any whiter, but they are cleaner and less prone to staining, so perhaps they look a little whiter.

  1. Great selection! Woodwinked is definitely one of my favourites too. I'm curious about the Estee Lauder perfume

  2. @Gaelle I still think MAC shadows can be a bit hit and miss, but when they get it right like they did with Wood Winked, they're great. It's a lovely perfume, you should go try it!

  3. Ooh. I wear EL double wear everyday because I find it's one of the 'matte' foundations that actually STAYS on my oily skin (doesn't slide around) and keeps my face matte the longest out of the ones I've tried (mostly powder foundations to be honest, from Dior, Chanel, Lancome). How is the Bio-detox in terms of matte-ness compared to Double wear?

  4. It's not quite as matte, I've been using it over Vivos primer, and it lasts really well on me, I need to powder powder by lunch time (but I have that problem with any foundation )
