Hello Lovelies!!!
Sorry I've been gone all week it's been a crazy one and that's no excuse so because of that I'm going to try and write a couple of times this weekend for all of you.
So I've never thought about all the products that I love, don't love, the ones that are alright and the ones that are a complete waste of time and money.
That said I thought that I would do something like that for you since I didn't want to do another review on a product right away and bore you to...tears?
Ok lets start with MUSTS for this month shall we!
I was recently at the Superstore and of course I ALWAYS end up in the cosmetics and beauty isle, but this time however I was with my two little boys...let me tell you how hilarious it is when your 7 year old is saying "Look Mamma here's Covergirl get something and lets get out of here!" ha ha ha ya I know right!
I was pleasantly shocked when I stumbled upon Milani Cosmetics in an aisle and when I mean pleasantly I flipped out!
I came across their Milani Easybrow and bought it in Taupe.

I was pleasantly shocked when I stumbled upon Milani Cosmetics in an aisle and when I mean pleasantly I flipped out!
I came across their Milani Easybrow and bought it in Taupe.
I absolutely can't tell you how amazing this brow pencil is. It has a spoolie on one side and a no sharpen cream pencil on the other. It glides amazingly and the colour is perfect for me.
The spoolie is the perfect length to brush your eyebrows with. Honestly I highly highly recommend this product, I have not found a better brow pencil in a long time.
Moving on, the second product is the Revlon Photoready Airbrush Mousse that I bought in Natural Beige.
Now let me first say that it's a can and the foundation comes out like a mousse like substance. If you're like me and you love that airbrush finish but with a great amount of coverage, than this is the product for you.
It's light on your face and very buildable. It does give you a little bit of the dewy finish so it may not be the best for you if you have oily skin unless you use a powder on top of it.
This product for me is a must have, especially in the summer when you don't want that heavy feeling on your face and definitely don't want to look like you have any makeup on.
Speaking of powder the next product is from Rimmel London and it's the Stay Matte powder that I purchased in Sandstorm.
This is a great powder to have. It's very matte and totally removes that shine off of your face that a lot of us don't like. It's not a heavy powder at all and it's in a great slim case.
My personal opinion for the packaging however is that I wish it was an actual twist off cap or it clipped together. It's really poor packaging because you can just pull off the lid and it's open.
Next on my list of favourites of the month is also from Rimmel London, however this time it's the Match Perfection Concealer that I bought in Ivory.
This let me tell you not only is a concealer but it's a GREAT highlighter. The brush on the end allows for a clean easy way of applying it to your face, you just squeeze the plastic tube.
Well done Rimmel this is my new Concealer / Highlighter it's magic and deserves a high 5.
Eye Primers. To me this has always been a tricky one because unfortunately I have oily eye lids. I've been using for a while now Eye Primer from BH Cosmetics.
This was a pretty good buy. It's creamy and goes on flat with no oily residue. Apply your powder on top of it and it will definitely help your eye shadow last all day.
If you're like me and have really oily eye lids then you may or may not like this product as I find that there are times where it does crease and my lids feel oily.
Another really great product from BH Cosmetics is their Nude Palette.
This palette is unreal. The shadows are very nicely pigmented, it comes with a highlighter, two lip glosses and two different blushes.
This palette is perfect for so many different looks from the cute like pinks to darkening it up in the evening to give you that sultry pinky, violet smokey eye.
This is a definite recommend from me. I think these colours would look good on so many different types of eye colours and has a lot of versatility.
This other product from Milani has been my favourite for a little while now. It's the Lipstick in the colour Sangria.
This lipstick is so creamy and smooth it doesn't dry up and leave your lips crusty as some dark colours can do.
The pigment in this lipstick is amazing and the smell OMG it's yummy. You know how you buy a lipstick and you bring it home and it just smells like...grossness? Well this my dears does NOT. This smells like heaven with candy in it.
The packaging is super cute and sleek and did I mention the colour STAYS ON! Two very big thumbs up for me.
The last makeup product I have to tell you about is from L'Oreal Telescopic in the colour black.
I have always had issues with mascara. They don't make my eyelashes long enough, they don't volumize them, they don't leave my lashes strong all day.
Well let me tell you if that's what you're looking for then this is definitely the mascara for you. This mascara lengthens, adds volume, plus it leaves your lashes strong and crispy all day.
I have never been more compliamented on how amazing my eyelashes look than when I started using this mascara. The brush is plastic and skinny so if you don't like those and you love those big amazing brushes then this is NOT the mascara for you.
This is definitely my go to mascara now and I wish I had found it sooner.
Last but not least is one of my most favourite items that I have been using for years now. This product is not makeup BUT it is for nails.
From Sally Hansen it's the Insta-Dri Anti-Chip Top Coat.
Ladies I have told dozens of people about this product now, and I was as skeptical as you are. I'm an O.P.I girl always have been, but when I tried this for the first time it completely changed me.
This top coat not only dries your nails 10 times faster than most top coats but wait for it....you nail polish lasts a WEEK (on most occasions when your hands aren't always submerged in water, than there is no top coat ever that will slow the chipping process)
I can now do my nails an hour before bed and not worry that I'll wake up with sheet marks on them. I don't have to stress about what colour i'm going to put on two days later because my nails look like a 16 year old girl has been picking at them.
Yes this will change your life, just as it has mine. Try this out you wont be sorry.
These are my May Favourites and I would love to hear what yours are. Maybe there is a product that you think I would like or is better than one of the ones that I've talked about here.
Let me know!
