April favourites!

Hi guys! I know we are now over a week into May but I thought id post my April favourites, I have SOOO many things that I love so I decided I would make myself choose the 5 products I've been using the most in the month of April. So here they are!


                          



I suffer from quite dry skin, and throughout the month of April I was having real trouble with the dryness, usually it manageable and a light moisturiser does a good job, however my skin seemed to be getting really dry and my foundation just wasn't looking good at all! So I decided I would try this! Aqueous cream is safe to use all over the body including the face, you can even use it in the shower as a substitute to soap to cleanse. Well, I have been LOVING this, my skin is so much better than it was eve before my troubles, I don't use as regularly as I was, mostly on a night time and then I'll use my normal moisturiser on a morning as it is quite a thick, heavy moisturiser, but I did the job in about a week and my skin feels so much softer :D

HD brows (Foxy) 4 x 2g - packaging has now changed* and Retails at £25 at HD BROWS (Click here to visit site.) However I got mine in the Latest in Beauty The glamour beauty edit which is now unavailable.

Until about maybe a year ago, I was never much into filling in my eyebrows, but then I got this in my beauty box. And I decided to give it ago as it is seen as a high end product and it was full size so there was no point in wasting! Well I never knew how much difference eyebrows can make, I apply this with the real techniques brow brush and it just looks so natural! I love it.

*The new packaging is now a rectangular shape and also comes with a wax products to seal the powder in place.


When I first bought this foundation I didn't really like it as it dries very quickly, which doesn't give you much time to blend, however since about 6 months ago when I got my RT buffing brush I can really buff it in before it drys and it looks so flawless, it feels so light that I forget I'm wearing it, I would say its a medium-full coverage. This is also available in a oily/combination formula for those with different skin types.

As I said before I had a MAJOR dry skin nightmare and unfortunately my eyelids suffered too, I have quite sensitive eyelids as it is, and one night after I'd been to work, I fell so sleep quite early and hadnt washed my eye makeup off (naughty) and just my luck that I can't get away with this and my eyelids go super dry and flaky, almost like eczema. So I bought this in an emergency as it was sore and unflattering, it took its time to clear it up completely but it is sooo soothing and it took the redness away almost straight after the use so I was quite impressed with the outcome of this and I've used it everyday since I bought it!


After the huge craze about Bioderma, I was a little excited to see this on the shelves, I had been wanting to try Micellar water for a while but bioderma is quite pricey and I wasnt sure I wanted to spend so much on something that might not be so great. This was actually half price when I bought it so it was £2.49! Now that I've tried it I'd happily pay £4.99. It takes my makeup with absolute ease, and it so gentle and soothing it leaves me with a clean, fresh, feeling face, so no complaints over here!! 

So, they were my April favourites! Hope you enjoyed reading this! Watch out for my next post!
