Hello everyone!
So, I have just had a look back at my posts to see how long it's been and it's been almost three weeks since I last wrote a blog post. It started out with the classic bloggers block. I just couldn't seem to think of blog post ideas and when I did, I was kind of stuck for what to actually write. Then over the last couple of weeks, a lot seems to have happened at home and I have spent the majority of my time at work, and I've just really not been feeling up to blogging at all. I didn't want to put blog posts out there for you to read, that I wasn't into writing. I want you to see how passionate I am about the things that I write about, not just me putting up a post for the sake of sticking to my schedule. And now, after all that I have just started to come down with a stinking cold! So, I am dosed up on paracetamol and have an olbas oiled hankie in hand to try to warn it off! On the plus side, I am back and feeling a lot more motivated to start posting regularly again, with hopefully no long breaks like I've just had! To ease me back into it, I'm just going to talk about a few things that I have loved for the month of February. My February Favourites!
I haven't really tried anything new this month and as I have spent the majority of my time at work, earning lots of extra pennies, I haven't worn make-up very often either. I just have three make-up favourites, which I will start with. The first is the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. I have loved this for a long time and I have yet to find anything that I like more. I have especially loved this this month for the days when I have been at work. I don't wear very much make-up to work, if any, and this is always the first thing that I reach for, along with a mascara and my eyebrow pencil. A lot of my shifts for work start at 6:30 in the morning so I have been loving this concealer to cover up my tired eyes and lack of sleep! It will literally cover anything. The next is the Natural Collection Blush in Peach Melba. On the days that I have worn a full face of make-up, I have kept it all really natural and have reached for this blush every single time. It is such a gorgeous natural peachy pink colour, and it's so easy to wear with any make-up look you like. And at £1.99 it's an absolute bargain! My final make-up favourite is the Urban Decay Naked On The Run Palette, but in particular, the eyeshadows. The colours is my favourite thing about them, a lot of bronze tones which brings out my blue eyes and are my favourite eyeshadow colours for any time of year. They are so buttery and blendable and they make eyeshadow application so easy. They are the only eyeshadows I have been reaching for, they're just gorgeous. My favourite shades are Dive, Fix and Stun.
Now for the two non make-up favourites, one being a facial exfoliator and the other an electronic device. Let's start with the beauty, because that's the bit that we all want to know about isnt it?! The L'Oreal Paris Skin Perfection Radiance Revealing Gentle Exfoliator has been an absolute life saver for my skin over the last few months. It keeps my dry patches at bay, but the reason that it is in my favourites this month is because of the scent. It has such a fresh and invigorating scent that really helps to wake me up and make me feel more alive in the mornings. It really is brilliant! My final favourite is my kindle. Before this month, I had only read one book on it in the year or so that I've owned it. I just feel like you can't beat the feeling of holding an actual book. I love to hold a book and flick through the pages, but this month I have read a lot more on my kindle and I think it's brilliant for reading on the go. I can have my mini library with me anywhere I want to go. One full charge lasts for 8 weeks, so you don't have to worry about the battery dying on you. It still doesn't beat reading an actual book but I have a new found love for my kindle and am definitely going to use it a lot more from now on!
What have been your favourites for February?
