March Favourites

Hi guys! And welcome to my March favourites. Firstly where the hell is this year going? April already? Not that I'm complaining as I can't wait to finish my degree and get back into the real world haha! So anyway let's get to it, I've got some beauty faves as well as some added extras. 

Also I just want to say since in saving for a massive American beauty haul I will be trying to mix it up on here even more, maybe trying to do a tutorial or two, or at least, spring makeup of the day looks!

Right. So these are the makeup staples I have been reaching for at least 90% of this months makeup clad days. Also now I'm thinking about it I like to give my skin at least one fully makeup free day a week, I feel like it's letting it breathe, a bit like giving my eyes a break from my contacts and wearing my glasses!

So first things first Rimmel's Match Perfection in Light Porcelain has been my go to foundation, mostly because only 2 of my foundations are actually a colour match for me at the moment, which isn't helping my aim to finish some products before I go buy a load more in the States! But I like this foundation as it's light/medium buildable coverage and simply does the job at covering most of my acne scars! Next I want to address Urban decays Brow Box in Honey pot which I've been using the light ash shade to lightly fill in my brows to just give them some more definition, especially when I go heavier on the eyes! Also I love that it comes with it's own brushes and tweezers, great for traveling. As usual my go to eye shadows are Urban Decay and this month I have been constantly reaching for the Naked 2 palette which I always though I'd like the least, but I love the taupe tones for this time of the year. I have also been playing with mixing these colours with bright spring tones for a bit of colour injection into my life! Also the single Urban Decay eye shadow in Sellout has been my go to everyday essential eye shade, it's simply beautiful and does all the work for you, brightening your eye area and it's fab for blending everything together or toning something down if you've gone in a bit too dark.

My go to lip product has been a very low maintance 'Almost Lipstick' as Clinque describe it, I have the colour Black Honey and I just love the way it gives a dark, natural look to my lips that is super moisturising as I have dry lips at the moment due to not being too well!

I've been all about my statement jewellery pieces this month, as I have been for the last few months really! I love wearing my bold white necklace from Topshop as it adds a little something to what I could think is a boring outfit. The bracelets are a staple of mine at the moment, the gold and silver elasticated one was a present from my Nan at Christmas and I absolutely love it, I wear it every day nearly! And the other is one of my beloved Trollbeads Bracelets with my neutral toned beads with a hint of blue in there too, simple yet fancy and I like to jingle a bit sometimes!!! And lastly I've loved blinging up my hair a tad with a fancy clip or two that I got on sale from Debenhams in February, makes a bad hair day a bit better!

And finally this month has been my month of saving. Therefore I want to introduce you to my saves pot! Which I plan to smash in a couple of weeks. I hope there's quite a bit in there as I have been putting into it since I started Uni for a holiday! Hurray! It damn heavy too!

Hope you've all had a lovely March and you're ready for what April has to bring! Thanks for reading!
