November Favourites

I have rediscovered quite a few products this month so thought I would do my first monthly favourites post. I will try my best to post them every month however if I don’t please don’t hold a grudge against me :)
 
 
The first product or products I have been loving this month are two nail polishes; the Nails Inc Nail Polish in Tate, and the Barry M Nail Paint in 351 Yellow Topaz Glitter. Both of these nail polishes are autumnal/Christmassy colours which is one of the reasons I have been wearing them; they also look lovely separate as well as worn together. Overall I would give these 4/5
The next product I have loved this month is the Covergirl Lash Blast Volume Waterproof Mascara in ‘very black’. I picked this mascara up in the summer when I went to America and have been using it ever since; it creates long full lashes which I usually go for. I would give this mascara 5/5 and cannot wait to pick a couple more up when I go to San Francisco in February.
 
I have just started using the Soap and Glory hand food again this month as it’s starting to get colder meaning my hands have been getting dryer. This hand cream is the best I have ever tried; it keeps my hands moisturised for hours after I have applied it! I recommend this hand cream and give it 5/5
The last two products I have been loving are from Lush; I used to have quite a big obsession with Lush however recently haven’t been using their products until this month! First, the Breath of Fresh Air Skin Toner; this toner is great for taking off face makeup and gives a refreshing feel to my skin. It smells ‘Lush’ with a clean but fragranced scent. The next product is the Vanilla Dee-Lite Body Lotion; again this product is great for the dry skin that comes with winter! It smells amazing and the scent lingers on my skin for the rest of the day! I give both of these products 4/5
If anyone would like separate, more in detail reviews on any of the products, just comment down below and I will try my best to do them for you :)

NOTD #1

 I haven’t used this nail polish for a while as its quite an autumnal/wintery colour however I thought I would wear it again as I remembered how much I loved wearing it last Christmas! I have a few of the Lasting Fix Nail Polishes by 17 as they do what they say on the label – don’t chip for about 5 days which for me is pretty impressive; also for the inexpensive price of £2.99 you can’t go wrong! The one I’m wearing today is in the colour Smoke Signal; it is a mattish dark gunmetal grey colour!

O.P.I Nail Lacquer





For a couple of months I had been on the look for a glitter nail colour; I wanted a good brand, with lots of different coloured glitter packed into it, however I couldn’t find one in any of the drugstores I was looking in. When I travelled to America, of course this was top of my shopping list. The Cost of O.P. I Nail Lacquers in the UK are £11 – extremely pricey in my opinion however when I was in Wal-Mart I found them at $7 (£5!!) I couldn’t believe how much they were! Plus, they had this colour, the ‘dream’ colour I had been searching for.  

The Lacquer I picked up is a Nicole by O.P.I (Kardashian Kolor) in the colour Rainbow in the S-kylie. Every time I have been painting my nails I have applied this on my ring finger as I think it looks really pretty and not to over the top. It is such the perfect colour, packed with lots of glitter; you only need two coats to cover your whole finger.  I love how it different lights the different pieces of glitter shine different colours creating a magnificent colour however it also means that it will go with almost any colour nail polish. I really enjoy applying this over the top of colours as it always makes them look unique. This lacquer does not chip for at least 5 days meaning you can wear any type of nail polish underneath and it will stay perfect. I am looking forward to purchasing a few more colours in the near future.
