Monthly beauty favourites: May 2014

I’m very excited about this months beauty favourites. I’ve been using some of the products for some time now but never got round to talk about them on the blog, so I’m very excited to share them with you in this video. Others I just started using at the end of April, and have fallen instantly in love with them.

Here it is the Monthly Favourites Video. I hope you enjoy it.

Products Mentioned:

Liz Earle Cleans & Polish Hot Cloth Cleanser: It’s simply incredible in removing even long lasting makeup and full coverage foundation. It smells and feels great on the skin. After removing your cleanser with a cloth your skin will look radiant, feel perfectly cleansed but still soft and hydrated. It’s so good I feel a little bit silly for not trying it earlier on.

Clarins Radiance – Plus Golden Glow Booster: Has literally changed the way I feel about self tanning products, in particular about face self-tanners. You need only 3 drops, mix it with your regular moisturiser and done. There’s no smell, not even the tinniest little bit just a gorgeous natural golden glow a few hours later.

Murad Hydrating Toner: is a great add on to your daily routine, especially if you have dry or sensitive skin. Easy to use thanks to an atomiser. A quick spritz on your face after cleansing helps to balance and sooth your skin. It smells gorgeous too. I got used to this step in my skincare routine very quickly. I never really used to see any difference in my skin after using a toner in the past, but after using Murad Hydrating Toner I feel like this genuinely helps to sooth redness and helps my moisturiser to sink into the skin faster.

Caudalie Divine Oil: If this product is on your wish list just go and get it. It was on mine since summer last year, so I’m glad I finally got round to testing it because it is just a ‘divine’ body oil. It’ll make your skin feel very soft and hydrated. It leaves a layer of nourishment on the skin but it won’t feel greasy or oily. It says you can use it for your face, hair and body but if your hair is fine, slick and straight like mine, don’t repeat my mistake and just stick to using Divine Oil only on your body. Unless you like to rock the ‘I can’t remember when I last washed my hair’ look.

Sure Maximum Protection Anti-Perspirant: This is just amazing stuff. Use it and you won’t ever need to reapply your anti-perspirant. No more stains or sweet marks (sorry I know it’s not glamorous but this is life). Once I switched to it I never looked back.

I’m off to see my mum in a couple of weeks and I’m planning a shopping trip to Sephora so if you have any beauty suggestions I should try do let me know.
