My Current Go-to Palettes

Can you really have enough neutral palettes? I think that all of the ones that I own come under that category. However recently I have stuck to the same two, probably out of ease as both feature such wearable colours. My favourites contain shades that are perfect for Autumn/winter therefore I can definitely see myself sticking to them all through the season. Here they are:

Makeup Revolution Iconic 2 - £4

This palette is great as it features many shimmery colours but also a few mattes, including a black with is essential to me as I set my eyeliner with it. I think that you can tell which shade is my favourite in this one... it is such a gorgeous shimmery brown. Everyday I use this colour over my Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon shadow stick in Dark Pearl and it creates such a stunning yet wearable shade. The palette is perfect for the festive period due to lovely gold shades, just add a berry lip and you are ready! I still cannot get my head around the fact that these palettes are only £4, thats crazy! If you would like to see a few looks that I have created with this palette then check out these posts - FOTD - Autumn Neutrals, Current go-to Makeup, Winter Flicks and Berries.

Urban Decay Naked Basics 2 Palette - £23

I purchased this palette on a bit of a whim really. At the time, I already owned my Naked 3 palette and had no interest in the basics... until I saw it was featured on Cohorted for around £18. Since then I cannot stop using it! It has to be my only all matte palette and I love it. The taupe tone to all of the shadows is really what drew me in as all of the shades are just so gorgeous. I find myself reaching for this palette as they are so creamy and blend together beautifully. Here are a few looks that I have created - FOTD - Macs Up the Amp and Naked Basics 2, Naked Basics 2 Look.

April Favourites

I've always loved reading monthly favourites so today I thought why not? I may not do this every month as once I find a product I love, I typically keep using it until its finished. Here is Aprils favourites:

1. I cant even remember when I bought this bronzer as I have had it for so long. I've used it since and bought it and I've only made a slight dent in it, I don't even know if its good to use anymore! Its a gorgeous colour on my pale skin. I often find it very difficult to find suitable bronzers.. hence why I have used this one for so long!

2. The lipstick I have been grabbing this month is MACs Pink Plaid. Its a gorgeous pink shade, I specifically love the matte finish as it does not budge off of my lips. Perfect for every day wear or a night out!

3. My hair desperately needs moisture as its been so damaged in the past. I spray this in my hair everyday, even when I am not using heat, and I do definitely notice my hair being much sleeker. Not to mention the Argan Oil line is so inexpensive, I love the conditioner too.

4. This necklace is constantly being worn!  It goes with so much, I wear it on nights out and with jumpers casually during the day. I definitely do not regret purchasing it, best part is that I bought it from Monsoon for £3 in a sale!

5. I went to the effort of washing the cup for this blog post however it did not even cross my mind to dry it, sorry! It has been used every day since my lovely sister bought it for me from Primark for £2 I believe. I am even going to go back and get my boyfriend the blue one so we can be cute and match ha ha!
