My Beauty Must Haves

As mentioned in my previous post eventually, at the end of each month I'm planning on doing a blog on the best products I've reviewed over the last few weeks.

But because I've not reviewed that much in the last 2 weeks I've been blogging I'm going to share some of my favourite products that I could never be without :)


First up is Olay Classic Care Beauty Fluid (£4.69)

This little beauty is a bit of a cult classic and it was also the first moisturiser I ever bought!

Although they do this in a normal/combination skin variety I find its not quite oil-free enough for my t-zone but I use this on the rest of my face, it locks in moisture and makes my skin feel unbelievably soft!
The scent of the fluid also reminds me of the baby lotion which I love!
At under £5 I think its a great buy and its suitable for any age!



Benefit You Rebel Lite (£23.50)

I don't actually think I can put into words how much I love You Rebel!
I'm not much of a foundation fan so I prefer tinted moisturisers but I've always struggled to find one that doesn't make me look like I'm wearing fake tan! For some reason a lot of them seemed to be aimed at darker skin tones?!

Anyway at £23.50 its not the cheapest but a tube of this lasts me nearly a year so I can't really complain, and to be honest because I love it so much I don't begrudge paying it!


I actually have 2 favourite mascara's, I find it impossible to choose between these 2 so I've had to include both of them!

With quite a few mascaras on the market its hard to know which one to choose, I've used quite a few and I'm always picking up a new one whenever I go into Boots but no matter what, I always seem to keep coming back to these too!


Benefit Bad Gal Lash (£16.50)

My Mum bought me this for Christmas a couple of years ago and it is without a doubt one of the best mascara's that has ever graced my lashes!! Its not the cheapest so I usually just treat myself to this one a couple of times a year.


Mascara #2 is another cult favourite

Max Factor 2000 Calorie Mascara (£7.99)

This is my everyday mascara, and I've only been using it for about a year and a half but I love it.
It's pretty similar to the Benefit one I use but for well over half the price. If you're on the lookout for a great mascara make sure you check this one out!
Boots sometimes have offers on where you can pick this up for half price!!!! Even better :)



Soap & Glory Sexy Mother Pucker (£9.00)

This smells like chocolate! Lush!!!!
It is a lip plumping gloss, while I don't know if it does have a noticeable effect you can feel the tingling sensation once you apply!
I was introduced to this by my friend about 4 years ago and I've been using it ever since.



Barry M Nail Paints (£2.99)

I don't think I've ever met anyone who doesn't like Barry M!

Cheap with a wide array of colours and finishes, you simply can't go wrong!

I've actually lost count of how many of these I own!


Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructer (£4.99)

I first started using this product when I was dying my hair blonde, I was paranoid about it drying out so picked this up to use.

The smell is gorgeous, it reminds me of Anglo bubblies!!

Although I stopped dying my hair blonde a long time ago I still use this a couple of times a month to keep my hair in tip top condition. Highly recommended!



Lee Stafford Poker Straight Flat Iron Protection Mist (£5.99)

I've been using this for about 8 years, my hair is naturally straight so I don't straighten it much but I use this every time I do, I also spray this on my hair before I blow dry it.

This also smells like my favourite perfume 'Angel' which is probably another reason why I love it so much :)


Palmers Cocoa Butter Formula Lotion (£3.77)

Product Image (image from boots.com)

I suffer from quite dry skin and this is the only product that actually moisturises my skin and makes it feel soft and smooth.

Apparently its good for stretchmarks and can also be used as an aftersun lotion.

Smells like chocoolate and its a bargin!



Thierry Mugler Angel (£44.00)

Product Image (image from boots.com)

This is my favourite perfume ever!

The first time I came across this perfume was in an airport when I was 10, its not the cheapest of perfumes so funnily enough my Dad wouldn't buy it for me, but 4 years later I got it for my birthday and I've been wearing it ever since!

I don't wear it everyday as its quite a strong scent but I wear it whenever I go out at night and for special occassions.

Its quite hard to describe the fragrance, its musky and chocolatey, sounds weird but its beautiful!



So there you go, these are my must have products!

Enjoy x
