DECEMBER BEAUTY FAVES, 2016

Is it just me or is December always a crazy busy month? Between wrapping up work for the Christmas break, actually celebrating Christmas and the New Year and trying to spend time with as many family and friends as possible while you're all on leave, life is pretty hectic! 

I've decided not to do a yearly beauty round up this year but, even though it's late, I still wanted to show you what I was lovin' in December. 

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Whether you celebrate Christmas or not, I hope you have a fabulous day today!

I took the week off from blogging, as you may have seen, to catch up on a few things but I'll be back next week! 

There's lots coming but, until then, have a fabulous day/week/month/year. (Yes, that snowballed into a Friends reference very quickly)

Be safe and smile!

FESTIVE FACE OF THE DAY

Christmas is one of my favourite times of year. I love how everything's festive and everyone's got a bit more spring in their step (probably 'cos they've got a break from work over Christmas). Even though my Face of the Day posts aren't that popular (they don't do too well in terms of views), I wanted to show you this festive look that I came up with, especially for those who're stuck for what to wear Christmas Day.

I'm no make up artist but keep reading to see what I created with these products! 

REVLON X CHLOE MORELLO SCULPT AND HIGHLIGHT CONTOUR KIT

Although I really don't need another contour palette I couldn't resist picking up the Revlon x Chloe Morello Sculpt and Highlight Contour Kit after I saw her video on it. I really like supporting people of the internet and I wanted to try an affordable and readily available kit to see if it was any good and whether I'd recommend it. 

In the video Chloe explains that Revlon contacted her to get her feedback on a contour product they were creating, however it didn't become a fully blown collaboration until later in the production process. I'm not sure how and why it became a straight up collaboration but it's interesting to know that it wasn't the initial plan.

Anyway, enough about the backstory, let's get into it! 

SEPHORA, MAKE UP GEEK AND COLOURPOP HAUL w/ SWATCHES

I was going through my computer and I found these, a bunch of photos from some orders from a few months back. Although these orders were placed a while ago I still want to share the bits with you because I like sharing my purchases with you all; it makes me feel less naughty. 

These photos were some of the last taken in my old set up so sorry if they don't quite fit but I didn't want to delete them for that reason alone so here we are. Let's get into it!
