Current Favourites - March '16

I've jolted myself out of the funk I've been in lately to grab a few products that have been singing to me for this post. It's a general favourite product post rather than the monthly round up that sometimes causes me to drop favourites in order to gather fresh material - am I the only one who subconsciously does this? I think this strategy should help me carve out a natural rotation with my beauty products, because after all I'm a bit of a magpie who flits between things enough as it is.
 
I've actually stuck to a decent routine when it comes to moisture masks and body lotions - I'm enamoured with the Sisley Black Rose Cream Mask* which I tend to leave on overnight, and the Bath and Body Works Sweet Magnolia & Clementine Body Lotion which smells utterly delightful. A handbag favourite that's been much needed for the generally-unwell Bovary household is the Soap & Glory Hand Maid Antibacterial Cleansing Gel*, which always garners compliments thanks to that famous Soap & Glory scent.
Speaking of scent, the return of my staple fragrance has sparked the thought of ridding myself of a host of other bottles in my collection - there are very few days when I don't want to smell of Guerlain Champs Elysees, you know what I mean? I feel stronger when I wear this, and very mature which I like.
Colorpop's Jellyfish Blush was a last minute addition to my cart and don't those always end up being the best part of a haul? The bright shade is intimidating in the pan but on the cheek it brightens me up with ease, and I love the natural glow it adds to my cheeks. Colourpop Wisp Highlighter has also turned me off some of my other highlighters for the time being and I love how fast I can apply it with my fingers - it looks like it would be too dark for me but it blends so easily and I find it perfect. Last but definitely not least is the amazing Too Faced Love Flush Blush Wardrobe, part of my recent Too Faced haul that has been getting a major workout from me in the last few weeks. I went through and wore each shade in succession before declaring my love for this, and surprisingly I've used more of the shades Love Hangover and I Will Always Love You than Baby Love which I found pretty surprising given my penchant for neutral blushes? Perhaps the tides are turning...
What is your blush love at the moment?
Have you tried any of the Colourpop cheek products?

  1. I just got my first ColourPop order in the mail and it included one of their blushes! I haven't tried it yet but I probably will tomorrow. Very excited - I want to see if the hype is worth it, haha.

    1. The texture is so different, I don't use the nude blushes as much as this bright one as I like the pigmented blush more in this formula, but the highlighters are divine

    1. I love writing them and I love reading them - tried and true blog post for sure. I love the shade selection in the blush palette, some are ones I wouldn't reach for necessarily so I love that they're here and now I use them - switching things up a bit!

  4. My recent favorite is my MAC lippie, all fired up. I love the color and it really last long on my lips. In your favorites, I am eyeing on that blush palette.

    1. Ooh lovely, great name for a lipstick too. I haven't worn any of my MAC lippies in a while I think I have to go through my MAC drawer and give it some love!

    1. haha nice one Di! I wish Colourpop shipping was cheaper but I guess I should be used to hiked up prices in Australia. I would own a lot more Colourpop if it were cheaper to get here!
