E's Current Loves - Mid Month Favourites



This month I have brought a couple of new products to try out. Some of them have been absolutely fantastic and I cannot go a day without wearing them. Winter is coming to its end so bright summery colours will be appearing again and more natural face makeup will be applied.
The Garnier BB cream was a new addition to my makeup collection this month and I am totally in love with it. It is the perfect mix of a moisturiser and foundation for those days of school or a simple day out. It provides just the right amount of coverage for me and lasts a far way through the day.

In Conjunction with the BB cream I use the Australis Fresh and Flawless Pressed Powder, I just recently rediscovered this product and again has become part of my daily routine. As you can see I have already used a fair amount of the product, I apply this powder all over my face to mattify the shine of the BB cream. The powder transfers on to the face really nicely and looks like I am wearing liquid foundation.

Another of my daily routine favourites is the Essence 16 hour stay all day long-lasting concealer. It is the perfect creamy concealer that can be applied under eyes or over blemishes. The smooth texture makes it easily blendable and is absorbed into the skin nicely while covering up any imperfections or dark spots.

I have been using my Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara for a couple of months now and is almost due to be tossed. The thick stumpy brush allows for the lashes to be volumised and lengthened dramatically. The bristles are smaller at the tip of the brush and longer at the end to lengthen the outermost lashes. The mascara itself creates long lashes as well as volume and really adds the extra length, it is also great because it doesn’t clump my lashes. My eyelashes look completely short and barely there without mascara but with the addition of this product they become much more noticeable.
What would I do without my Maybelline Baby Lips? I apply this product at least 20 times every single day. I would literally be lost without it. It is the prefect moisturising lip balm that doesn’t leave your lips with a shine. It repairs and rehydrates your lips, removing cracks and dry skin within a couple of applications per day.

I recently purchased products from beauty joint with K, which included nail polish, my elf blush and some NYX jumbo eye pencils (if you would like a review on our experience please leave a comment below). My Elf Blush is in the colour Blushing Rose and is the perfect pinky red toned blush with hints of gold. It adds the perfect flush of colour to my light skin tone. It is not an over powering blush, where your cheeks become the most bold focal point of your makeup. It gives a subtle pink glow that livens up any face.

The NYX Jumbo eye pencil is in the colour 611 yoghurt. I am absolutely in love with this colour right now! It is the perfect base colour for your eye lids or as I have found this month the perfect inner corner colour. It livens up any tired face and makes your eyes look fresh and awake.
My last mid-month favourite is the Australis Nudist Palette. This palette can be taken anywhere, it has the ability to transform any daily eye look into a night time party look. The colours used in this palette are so versatile that they can be used practically for any eye look. The shades are mostly shimmering shades that offer a glittered look on the eye, there are base colours, lid colours and crease colours which is why I enjoy using this palette so much.


If you would like a proper review on any of these products please let us know and we would be happy to. This blog post is not necessarily a review but more an indicator to what products I am currently loving and a bit about them. Hope you enjoyed reading and enjoy your day.
Love E xx
