April Beauty Favourites (2015)

 
 April has come and gone with its many showers. But it has also brought more monthly favorites! Lets just jump right in shall we?
 
Tarte Tartelette Palette

Such gorgeous shades!
This has been my go to eyeshadow palette all last month! I have never been into matte eyeshadows that much but recently, there's something about them that is so appealing. They are great for every day use and they give you the option to pair them with a shimmery blush or a bold lipstick. The middle row are my favourite shades in the palette.
 
Two Faced Melted Liquified Long Wear Lipstick
Top - Melted Strawberry
Bottom - Melted Fig
 
Speaking of a bold lip, I adore these lip products. They have a sponge applicator on the end which makes them seems like they would be slightly difficult to work with but that is not the case. They are super pigmented and not drying at all like some other liquid lipstick formulas can be. They also have a wide range of colours to choose from so there is something appealing for everyone!
 
Clinique Cheek Pop in Pansy Pop
These are the cutest little flower shaped blushes I have ever seen. They recently released new shades for the spring/summer and this was the first one to catch my eye. They have such long wearing colour that can be worn sheer or built up, depending on what you like. I find they give the perfect amount of natural colour to the cheeks.
 
Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer
Now you are probably wondering "How can a product be weightless and full coverage at the same time?" Well I can't explain it but it is completely true. It is so lightweight on the skin but it provides the perfect amount of coverage. It conceals my imperfections but never cakes on my skin. It works beautifully under the eyes as well to brighten and conceal dark circles. If there ever were a miracle worker, this would be it!

Caudalie Beauty Elixir
I have been a big fan of this product for a while. Filled with plant active ingredients, it's the perfect "drink of water" your skin needs when it's feeling dry. It's light, refreshing and works wonderful under your moisturizer or even on its own. Sometimes I even give my face a quick spray when it's feeling a little warm.
 
Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish in Porchester Square
This is not your typical spring colour but I love grey nail polishes with hints of lavender/purple. The gel effect gives the polish a lovely glossy finish and makes the polish last quite a long time on the nails. The only thing I find tricky is the wide brush inside. I have really tiny hands and fingers so sometimes I can get a little sloppy. But I'll take it for the gorgeous colors!
 
Bumble and Bumble Repair Blow Dry Serum
I absolutely hate blow drying my hair! It takes forever with my super wavy and thick mane and I don't like the way it makes my hair feel afterwards. But with this gem, it makes the process a bit more bearable. This product protects your hair from heat and breakage and leaves it feeling soft and silky smooth when you are finished.
 
And that concludes my favorites for this month. Hope everyone has a lovely day!
