January Favourites 2015 │ lipsticksandlevis

Hello everyone!

My laptop screen keeps going on the blink, so I'm going to be writing posts in bulk and scheduling them when I get the chance and when my laptop is feeling helpful! I'm going to do my best to keep the posts regular, and on their usual days of Monday, Wednesday and Friday. I'm just praying that my laptop doesn't break completely, because I am not looking forward to having to buy a new one! (sad face) Anyway, January has flown by so it's about time I told you about my January Favourites! I haven't got many favourites this month, as I haven't really switched anything up in terms of hair care or skincare and I haven't had many make-up wearing days as I've spent most of it ill. So, here are just a few of the things that I have loved throughout the last month.


The one and only make-up product in my favourites this month is the Bourjois Poudre De Riz De Java. I don't know why I've waited until now to try it, because I absolutely love it and always thought I would from the things that I had heard about it. It has a slightly pink colour to it and even looks shimmery in the pot, but when you apply it to your skin, it takes away all the shine without making my skin look too matte. I love dewy skin, but get slightly oily through my t-zone, so this product is absolutely perfect for me. It also helps my make-up stay in place that bit longer, and the mint green packaging is too cute. Just brilliant! I then have two fragrance favourites of the month, Daisy by Marc Jacobs and the fragranced mist from the Zoella Beauty range. I love to use the Zoella beauty mist for everyday wear because it's quite light and not overpowering at all. It's just a lovely fresh scent. I love using Daisy by Marc Jacobs if I am going out somewhere, especially in the evening. It's still quite a light and fresh scent, but more for going out, in my opinion. Now, a home fragrance favourite. You may have seen my Clothes Show Live post, where I talked about the day in general and all the things that I bought. I bought a couple of candles from Flamingo Candle, which I had never tried before. In my favourites this month is the Chocolate Orange scented candle, which, unfortunately, I think was limited edition around Christmas time. It smells exactly like chocolate orange and the scent doesnt fade after a few burns of the candle like some do. I would highly recommend the Flamingo Candles, and they have some really cute and unique scents too. 


I love Real Techniques brushes as a whole, and they will be my favourites every month until I find something that I like better. For the quality of the brushes and the fact tht they are affordable, theyr'e always winners for me. This month, these two brushes have been totally stand our for me. Their Blush Brush and the Cheek Brush from the Nic's Picks Collection. You can still get the Nic's Picks Collection HERE, but it is limited edition, so I don't know how long for. I love using the Cheek Brush for blending in my foundation allover my face. It is fairly small, so doesn't drown out my small face, and is quite dense so makes it easy to apply my foundation and blend quickly. The blush brush, for me, is one of those multi-tasking brushes that I just couldn't be without. I use it to contour, to bronze, to apply powder allover my face, and to apply blush. I just love it and will never be without it. 

What have been your favourites of January?
