Current favourites

As we have approached the end of gloomy January and have entered a new month, it has given us plenty of time to spend our Christmas money on between-seasons sales or even the full priced joys that are beginning to enter into shops for the transition into Spring/Summer. I wanted to share some of my recent purchases and favourites... 1)

The first is the 'Benefit high beam' complexion enhancer. The description states that it gives your skin a soft, dewy finish, and that it does! The shimmer in it is not too overwhelming as to give you a stage-makeup-gone-wrong type of look, but instead it does exactly as it states and just enhances the areas of your face which could do with brightening up. 2)

Secondly I've chosen the Smashbox Primers. They are just so light-weight and satin smooth on your skin; I love them. I personally have the green colour correcting one, as my skin has quite red undertones. However, many of my friends just have the basic photo finish, and they equally have been highly impressed by it. It doesn't just have to be used under foundation either; for those who only wear concealer and powder like myself then it works wonderfully too. 3)

Now this one isn't exactly a new favourite, but I have just recently dyed my hair for the third time using this hair dye. I always love the colour that is produced by it, and the dye is so good that I only really have to dye my hair every 6 months. (However if you are fussier than I am about roots then you might have to redye more often.) 4)

Lastly, I have chosen this Topshop Chambray Shirt. I have noticed that Chambray shirts seem to be coming back on trend again slowly, as American Apparel and Topshop are producing plenty of them, and I particularly loved the look of this one from Topshop. So casual, yet teamed with the right trousers and shoes could also make a smart outfit; multi-uses, it must be a must have! I haven't purchased mine yet, but not to worry, I will soon! These are just a few of my current favourites, but there will probably be heaps more that catch my eye soon! E x
