February Favourites.


Another month over, another 'Favourites' post heading your way.
February has been quite an eventful month for me, I've found out that I've gotten into Uni so I'll be re-attending in September - yay! 
It's also my older brother's birthday tomorrow and he'll be turning the grand old age of 29 - like the good sister that I am, I've sent him his birthday card in the post. Two big thumbs up to me - it was Funky Pigeon-ed after all. 
I've been getting along swimmingly with my Makeup Revolution Iconic 1 palette - particularly those golden and bronze colours right in the middle. I've been using them to re-create a Kendall Jenner inspired shadow look (watch this space for a 'get the look', I've not posted one in forever). The shadows are highly pigmented and last well throughout the day and for £4.00, you'd be a fool to not pick this up.
I've already raved about my love for the Maybelline Brow Satin - see this post here - so I'll just say that I really rate it for a drugstore brow pencil. I use the shade Dark Blond and it's been my go-to brow product of late. 
Another product from Maybelline that I've been getting alot of use out of is The Eraser. It's been great at covering my under-eye circles and as I've previously stated, I've not been wearing foundation recently and this has been brilliant at covering any red areas on my face. A nightmare to get hold of, but well worth the buy. 
SEVENTEEN isn't a brand that I usually gravitate towards in the drugstore, but since seeing Lily Melrose use this in one of her videos I had to get my hands on it. I've been contouring with their Instant Glow Cream Bronzer over the past couple of weeks and I've been loving it. It's a dream to blend and looks good, even on my pale skin.
My last favourite of February has been The Body Shop's Tea Tree Cool & Creamy Wash. This is so refreshing to use morning and night, and it really does aid in combating blemishes and preventing further breakouts. I'll definitely be re-purchasing once I've run out.

To be honest, if I'd talked about all the favourites I've had this month this post would resemble a novel. For your sanity - and mine - I've cut it down to a much more manageable chunk.
Typical.
