I've been trying so hard to use new products but it's been proving to be a little difficult. This month I tried to share a few products that I love but haven't really shown much on the blog lately, plus a few random favourites to spice it up a little ;) Let's get to it!
Skincare
Mario Badescu Facial Mist - I feel like this is such a universal product. It's great for hydrating your skin morning and night, as a 'primer' before applying foundation, spritzing on a sponge to make your concealer blend out better and even a setting mist. It's just a great product, I definitely recommend it.
Origins GinZing Mask - I LOVE face masks, especially ones that you can peel off. This mask is just really refreshing and it has a citrus-y scent that slightly tingles but it feels great. It's meant to tighten and brighten your complexion and I have seen a slight improvement but nothing that's too obvious. I love it.
Aveeno Daily Radiant Moisturiser - This is a perfect daily moisturiser, super hydrating and not too thick so it's great for morning and night. It also claims to be brighten your complexion but I haven't seen too much difference however I think it has evened out my skin tone a little. It's a great moisturiser, although for a drugstore moisturiser it's a little expensive.
Amie Exfoliating Polish - I've been testing this out for a while now, and can proudly say that I love it. It makes my face feel super smooth, and although it is gentle enough for regular use I only use it once a week. It does however, leave a slight oily feeling on your skin afterwards but it isn't very heavy or noticeable. As it uses more natural ingredients, I do think it is due to the jojoba oil and moisturising butters that create that feeling. Did I mention that it smells like mango? That's a selling point for me!
Makeup
Anastasia Dipbrow Pomade (Soft Brown) - I am starting to love this product again! I stopped using it for a while because I thought it was too bold for my eyebrows, but now that I have mastered the technique I love it. It allows me to get a great shape and using the brow brush gives a lot of precision. It isn't a lie when they say that this pomade does not budge, it lasts all day and will still look flawless at the end of the day.
Too Faced HangoveRX Primer - How do I even begin to explain this primer? Hands down my absolute favourite primer. It's hydrating, not too heavy, doesn't feel too tacky but still makes my makeup last all day. Also, it smells like coconut... amazing! Can you tell that scents are super important to me? Haha!
Revlon Sculpt and Hightlight Contour Kit - I'm not sure if I have mentioned this product on my blog before, but if I haven't lets just start by saying that it is the best drugstore contour palette you can get your hands on. It was co-created with Chloe Morello and if you don't know who she is quickly go to YouTube watch her videos and come back. She's an Australian Beauty Vlogger and she has absolutely nailed this palette. The light contour shade is perfect, especially if you are super pale like me. Get this palette.
Simple Glam Girls Rose Gold Oval Brushes - Another product that I don't mention on my blog too much is makeup brushes. I was recently kindly sent this set of oval brushes from Simple Glam Girls and I have to say I was a little skeptical about these brushes. I didn't think they would be effective at all and I had my doubts, until I recently tried them and Oh My God was I wrong! They are super gentle and blend foundation and concealer seamlessly. They are actually super light as well so they are easy to use. Definitely an investment that you will love! I do have a code for these brushes 'monniiblogs' which will give you 20% off brush sets and individuals.
Haircare
Fudge Purple Toning Shampoo - I haven't updated many of you in a while, but recently I have started going blonde and this shampoo has been a God send. You know that brassy, orangey tones you get? Well this gets rid of them, completely. It is a strong formula so it definitely works - if you are in the process of going blonde, or are a blonde, get this shampoo.
Random Favourites
Fitbit Charge 2 - Ahhh, I love my Fitbit! The Charge 2 measures everything that I need it too, and I got this stylish band too. I've been trying to get back into gym again and this really motivates as it allows me to track my time in the gym and I can choose which mode of workout I want it to record. It's a great investment - I love it.
DoTerra Essential Oils - I never thought I'd be one to get into essential oils however, here I am. I have a Lively Living diffuser that I use at night and have been mixing my DoTerra Oils before I go to sleep. My current favourites are Peppermint and Lavander - these two mixed together are amazing, it's super calming and also helps to clear my airways which is what I love! I want to try out so many oils, so please let me know what ones you are loving.
How I Met Your Mother - I love this TV series so much. I'm watching it again for about the third time, and it never gets old. Thank you Netflix for providing the goods!
