Well hello there, long time no talk eh?
For my first post of 2015 I thought id do my monthly favourites!
1. Urban Decay Naked 3 Palette
I have this palette a while now but I keep going back to it! I love all
the shades and how they are so pigmented! The shades Iv
been using the most would have to be 'Dust', 'Limit' and 'Buzz', but my
all time favourite from the palette has to be 'Blackheart' I love the
red glitter among the black shadow.

2. NYC Eyeliner Liquide in 887 Black
Iv been practising a lot with eyeliner trying to perfect it because I used to be terrible at it, I have definitely improved! This eyeliner was recommended by a friend and I have to say I love it and it is affordable which is a bonus! I used to use a gel liner but I started to get annoyed because the pot would dry up before I even got the chance to use it up so I opted to try the liquid although I was hesitant because I thought it would be a lot harder but to my surprise it wasn't.
3. Soap & Glory Archery

Filling in and shaping my brows has become a daily routine for me as I cant leave my house without them! Getting up at the crack of dawn to go to college I don't have time to put a full face of make up on so I just like to fill in my brows so I don't look like Voldemort. I found this product to be perfect for me, as it is quick and easy to use and lasts all day. It has a thin crayon on one end and a brush on the other to blend out the product. It isn't the cheapest eyebrow product but is worth it.
4. W7 Lip Bomb in Pink Cherry
W7, what can I say its really making a name for itself lately. This is actually my first purchase from this brand and I have to say I'm impressed! I was out shopping one weekend and came across a stand which had loads of the W7 products and I couldn't get over all things they had, I wanted to get them all! As you can tell from looking at the image above it is a knock off of the EOS lip balm, unfortunately I cant compare them as I have never used the EOS balm although Id love to, but I can still say I love the W7 lip Bomb it feels amazing on my lips and it smells so good, id nearly eat it!
5. Garnier Moisture Match Normal to Dry Skin
Me and moisturisers don't mix! For some reason anytime I use moisturisers I break out in spots. But I seen this product in Boots on special so I said Id give it a go, I got a face scan done a while back and I was told I had dry skin, but the products they picked out for me were a bit pricey, so I tried this one. I love Garnier products and Iv never had a problem with my skin when I did use them, Iv been using this product for a few weeks now and I love it. My skin feels so soft when I use this moisturiser and it makes applying make up much easier! This product comes in a range of tailored formula's, for all types of skin.
6. Elegant Touch Totally Bare Glue On Nails
Nails, Nails, Nails! I love having long nails but I hate when I am constantly breaking them so I recently cut them short and started wearing fake ones so they would be all one length and shape. I found these ones in boots for €5.99 and they are just amazing! They come in different styles and lengths, each box has 48 nails in 10 sizes. The first style I bought was the stiletto (003) I love these ones because they are so pointy (I like pointy things ha ha), I painted them in a nude nail varnish just to keep them simple. These stayed on for over a week but I pulled them off because I wanted to put shorter ones on for college. I loved them that much I went and bought 2 more packets just to have in case I run out!
7. Sia - 1000 Forms Of Fear
I never buy CD's, but I went and bought Sia's album because after I heard her song 'Elastic Heart' I was hooked on her voice, sounds weird I know, but honestly I cant stop listening to this album, I love every song on it! I cant believe I never listened to her music before.
8. Pretty Little Liars
Iv probably mentioned this TV show before but Oh My God! I seriously love it! My head is wrecked trying to figure out who A is! Iv been watching this from the beginning and it never fails to shock me! Netflix also recently started releasing this show in real time which is the best thing ever!, I hate having to sit at my laptop to watch my TV shows that aren't on TV in Ireland but now I can chill on my bed watching it on my TV with my popcorn and my detective hat on trying to crack the A case. If you like drama mixed with mystery then definitely check this out! If any of you watch this please leave a comment and let me know who you think A is, I really want to know what people think.
9.Pinterest
*not my image*
Pinterest has become my new best-friend! Iv been using it a lot for college, because I do Fashion Design it comes in very handy for exploring design ideas and for finding inspiration. I also love making boards for make up and fashion styles. Check out my
account here to see more.
Leave me a comment with your favourite for the month or if you have tried any of these products let me know what you think of them.
