March Beauty Favourites

These are a handful of beauty products which I have been reaching for and enjoying throughout March.

Firstly, I have been using this No7 Beautifully Matte foundation and as you can see from how much I’ve used it I’ve been loving it.

It keeps my skin shine free all day without any touch-ups which is great for school and it glides onto my skin well and is easily buildable depending on how clear my skin is that day. This foundation was matched to my skin tone and I also purchased a concealer and a lipstick which was also matched to my skin. The match was perfect and the staff at the No7 counter at Boots in Oxford were very pleasant and helpful. This foundation is £14.50 which I think is a good price for the quality.

 

Secondly, I’ve been using this Calvin Klein lip gloss in the shade rich&famous which is a beautiful golden pink, shimmery gloss which creates a pretty, light weight colour. This gloss isn’t at all sticky and is fairly long lasting. This product also has a lovely flavour which isn’t necessary in a lip product but is quite a nice bonus. I apply this with my finger and I just push it into my lips to create a beautiful colour which is perfect for spring. This gloss is fairly cheap for such a great product.

 

This blush by Soap and Glory is super duper pretty. It includes a range of shades which when combined creates a lovely flush and glow to the cheeks. The shades in this blush complement a paler skin tone wonderfully but I imagine it would suit all skin tones. The packaging of this blush is sturdy and has almost a vintage style with a large mirror inside the lid which is perfect for on the go. This blush is quite hard so when you run a brush over it very minimal powder comes off but this is a very small flaw. Soap and Glory often have a 3 for 2 offer which is brilliant if you’re buying more than one product.

 

Another Soap and Glory product which I have been enjoying is the Supercat liquid eyeliner. When I began to get bored of a Collection liquid eyeliner I searched many blogs and reviews of other eyeliners that I could try and this one had many a good review. The product is a really intense black colour which stays on all day but unfortunately fades slightly after a few hours but it isn’t too noticeable. It glides on wonderfully without tugging and allows you to create a precise line along the upper lash line. It has a really slim nib which means you can achieve thin lines as well as thick, dramatic ones. This eyeliner is only £6 which is incredible considering the quality and performance of this product, I would highly, highly recommend.

 

Last but not least is the Maybelline Lash Sensational mascara which I purchased after seeing most beauty bloggers/vloggers rave about. When I first started using this product I didn’t find it as amazing as I thought I would but I persisted with it considering everyone and their grandmas dog seemed to swear by it and I eventually started to love it too. The formula is quite wet which I think was what put me off the first few times I used it but as it became slightly drier I found it easier to apply. The brush is curved to fit the shape of your eye which I’ve never tried before. I use the short bristles on my bottom lashes as they give you more control of where you’re putting the product and the long bristles on my top lashes to lengthen. This mascara lengthens your lashes amazingly and also thickens them. I wouldn’t use this mascara if you want more of a natural look but you could achieve a natural look if you applied it carefully. This mascara is £7.99 which is an amazing price for such a good mascara.
