As I briefly mentioned in my previous post, I haven't really blogged a lot in the past few months, so I'm going to attempt to blog more often! To kickstart this, I thought I'd do a post on my favourite things throughout the month of March. Now obviously I loved a lot more things that I didn't post here, but as this is a text post I wanted to keep it as short as possible. So here we go...
The second thing I really loved through March was the Rimmel London Stay Matte Foundation in shade 'True Ivory #103'. I bought this from Priceline a few weeks ago as it was on sale and I needed a new foundation. I've heard a lot of mixed reviews about this product, and was a little nervous to try it, but I actually really quite liked it and it works well for me. Although the product promises to have up to 12 hours natural shine control, it is nowhere near that in reality, but it gives you a decent couple of hours. I like the shade for my skin tone, and it never made me break out horribly so that's a definite bonus! It generally retails for around the $15.50 mark, but if you know which shade you're after, I recommend you buy it off Asos as it is only $9.95 on there, and they have free postage!
Another thing I quite liked through the month of March was a kabuki brush by Sportsgirl. I very rarely buy makeup products from Sportsgirl, not for any particular reason, I just don't. But this brush really caught my eye. As you can see in my photos, it comes in a super pretty hot pink metal casing, and definitely catches your eye. Not only is the casing super convenient because it makes it easier to take it with you, but the brush itself is super soft and just really pleasant to use. It's $12.95, which is a good price for a brush of this sort, so I say go and check it out!
Sticking with Sportsgirl makeup products, something else I've been really loving is the Get Cheeky Cheek & Eye Shimmer. I have it in shade 'Rose' and have found myself reaching for it quite a lot. It's basically a shimmer blush that can double as an eyeshadow and is really just a little pot of perfection. The little blurb on the back of its packaging says, Just one stroke of GET CHEEKY will perk your complexion up in an instant. The pearlescent, radiant finish gives you a gorgeous glow that lasts all day!, and I agree 100%. It only costs $9.95 and is definitely a product worth buying!
Last but not least, I recently purchased, and have been loving ever since, a fragrance by Calvin Klein called CK one Shock. I managed to pick this up in Myer while it was on sale for only $12 and it was the best $12 I've spent recently. Not only is the packaging just the best, the smell is so delicious. It's refreshing and addictive and gives you that lovely little boost that you need throughout the day. I keep this in my handbag and find myself using it all the time. Thanks Myer and Mr Klein!
Sorry that this ended up being a review/favourites post, but I hope you found it helpful and interesting nonetheless.
Much love!
