Seeing as I missed the boat for favourite products of 2013,
I thought I would do a round up of my favourite and most used product over the
past 12 months or so. Many of these have been on the scene for years and years
and will always have a prime spot in my makeup bag.
Miscellaneous
products
Batiste Dry Shampoo in Cherry. Batiste is a trusty old friend, always there to save the
day, especially when you’re having a bad hair day. Great for on the go kind of
girls, perfect to freshen up your hair and give it a bit of a boost.
Soap and Glory Rich and Foamous Body wash. Smells amazing! This is perhaps one of the nicest
body washes I have tried in a very long time. It lathers really well and smells
like almonds, with a hint of vanilla.
Rimmel SunShimmer fake tan. Fake tan for me tends to be very ‘hit and
miss’ and this has definitely been a hit. If applies fairly evenly and the colour
selection is just perfect, definitely more bronze toned rather than orange. This
particular one is in the shade Fair Matte but my all-time favourite is Light
Shimmer.
Eyelure false lashes
in 145. Eyelure lashes are some of my
absolute favourite, so many styles to choose from and the glue is brilliant. MY
favourite at the time usually alternate from 140 and 145, but for the majority
of the past 12 months 145 seem to be taking the lead.
Calvin Klein Euphoria perfume. Amazing! Highly recommend you try it!
Jelly Pong Pong Blush brush. Purchased at the Clothes Show, many
many years ago, this lovely brush finally made it into my make up bag, ready
for everyday use. It is really soft and perfect for applying blusher evenly.
Bath and Body Works hand sanitizer in Mojito. Cannot describe how lovely this smells! Gutted there isn’t
a Bath and Body Works in the UK… I would probably be in one every day!
Eyes and Lips
MUA Palette in Undressed. Priced at an absolute bargain price of £4, I initially did not expect much but was pleasantly surprised with the great colour pay off from all of the colours in this palette. This would be a perfect product for someone who is just starting out in make up and wants to expand their collection.

Bare
Minerals eye shadow in High
style and snazzy. Absolutely amazing eye shadows wit brilliant
staying power. These can be worn just as a mineral powder but I prefer to apply
them slightly wet for an added boost of colour intensity.
MEMEME Eyesweep eyeliner pen. Perfect for drawing thin lines, especially in the
inner corner of your eye. Would highly recommend!
Soap and Glory Thick
and Fast Mascara. Absolutely loved this in 2013. Having only really
associated Soap and Glory with lotions and various bath and shower products, it
was nice to expand my collection and try some of the cosmetics in the range.
Rimmel Colour Show Off Lipstick
in 020 Shake up pink. This is an oldie but goldie, such a pretty
Barbie pink colour and lasts reasonably well.
Pomme Granate lip
balm from H&M. This is an absolute gem! Bought on a whim one cold, cold
evening in Boston, this lovely lip balm has saved by lips from the brutal
American winds.
