What I've been loving throughout November


Well, November is over and Christmas if officially here. That also means that this is my last monthly
favourites post. Since I don't try loads of new things every month I often find it difficult to find
products to include in my monthly favourites. There will be a 2019 yearly favourites post at the
beginning of January, however next month I'll be sharing what I've been loving every 3 months. This
gives me the time to try out more products and share definite favourites with you all. Saying this,
every item that I've feature in this post, was discovered, used and loved this month.

I would by lying to you if I said I wasn't curious in trying out beauty products that claim to be
enriched or infused with CBD. My local Boots has added some new brands to store including
Revolution skincare. I had to pick up a product from their new CBD range and decided to try out the
Revolution CBD nourishing essence facial spritz. This is aimed at reducing redness whilst calming
and refreshing the skin. I love how this evenly sprays onto my face, sinks in immediately, leave my
skin feeling amazing and most importantly doesn't leave my face feeling sticky or tacky.

This month was the launch of the conspiracy collection by Shane Dawson x Jeffree Star. There was a
lot of drama around people trying to get the products, and thankfully I managed to get my hands on
everything that I wanted. Throughout the month I've been using and loving the Jeffree Star x Shane 
Dawson mini controversy palette. Because this is so small and compact it's so easy to use and travel
with. I love how this has some more 'everyday' shades that are easy to wear. Full review here.

A product that I've had my eye on for a while but never purchased was the EX1 delete fluide 
concealer. This took me so long to pick up because I didn't want to make an entire online order for 1
small product. So when I made a large order on Beauty Bay, I added this to my basket. This is a full
coverage yet light weight concealer that covers any and all imperfections, dark spots or scaring. I
love using a small amount of this under my foundation to hide and discolouring, and then on top of
my foundation to cover up my dark circles and make me look like I've slept for the whole night!

When I ordered the Jeffree Star Cosmetics products and EX1 concealer I made sure to add the
RCMA no colour loose powder to my cart and check out as fast I could. I first heard about this cult
favourite product amongst thousands, originally from Kathleen Lights. This has been on my wishlist
since then, which was 3 years ago. I personally love this because it is so fine, that it doesn't sit in any
fine lines, it doesn't look thick under the eyes and it has no smell. I do use a small amount of this all
over my face, but my favourite place to use this is under my eyes to set my concealer in place.

Since my local Boots has had a mini revamp of the store and what they stock, I've now discovered a
bunch of new brands. The bit that always gets you and sucks you in is all the minis by the checkout. I
picked up the Mane Club hair mask whilst waiting to check out, because I love a good hair mask and
this was only £2.99. This adds shine, conditions, tames frizz, repairs and strengthens all in one. Since
I have quite long hair I can only get 1 use out of this, however if you hair was shorter then you could
definitely get a minimum of 2 uses and maybe even more. I love how convenient these are since they
are in a sachet, but since I love it so much I do wish this came in a big pot so I can get more uses.

  3. It's funny you should say that, some of the local Boots stores around here have had a bit of a re-vamp and there are all kinds of new brands in there, it's great!
