March Beauty Favourites
How is it April, where is this year going?! *Cue every blogger in the world saying the same thing*. It's the end of another month which means that it is time to do my monthly favourites and this month has a mixture of high-end makeup, high-end bodycare, skincare, nail polish and a much coveted palette.

Makeup 
March has been an fantastic month as I've been lucky enough to receive some amazing blog packages from the lovely people at House of Fraser. I have three makeup favourites and they are all high end, sorry! First up we have the gorgeous Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette which I have wanted for years and now that I have it, I've been using it pretty much every time I wear makeup. Another two products I cannot stop using are both from Giorgio Armani. Until I received these products I hadn't really tried anything from Giorgio Armani and now I know that I have been missing out. The Giorgio Armani Maestro UV Primer is one of the best primers I've ever tried and the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation is one of the best foundations I've ever tried - highly recommend!

Skincare, Bodycare & Nails 
Let's start with the nail polish favourite, I haven't really been wearing nail polish for months but the Nails Inc Gel Effect Polish in Hyde Park Place is too pretty and chic. I love grey nails all year round and this shade is just perfect. The one skincare product I've loved over all others I've tried in March is the new Green People Scent Free Hydrating Serum which is perfect for my sensitive and dry skin - it has been a constant in my current skincare routine and I'd definitely recommend it, especially if you do have sensitive skin. Last but not least is another staple, the Molton Brown Ylang Ylang Body Lotion. I received this lotion last year and I instantly fell in love with it, not just because it is so effective but it smells heavenly too - I keep it on my desk and use it as a hand cream. I need to try more Molton Brown products!

L'Occitane Spring Collection Lipstick: Pivoine Delicate 02

Gorgeous L'Occitane Packaging

Shade: Pivoine Delicate 

Swatch: Peachy pink with shimmer


This is my first lipstick purchase from L'Occitane and I really like the lipstick. This shade is from the new spring collection I think and I just adore the peachy pink shade of this lipstick. The lipstick smells gorgeous, like the new Pivoine Délicate perfume! The shade as you can see from the swatch above is a peachy pink and it applies quite sheer to my lips. This lipstick also has glitter in which I usually don't like but with this shade the shimmer works and this shade overall makes my lips look fuller! The price of this lipstick put me off buying it as it is almost the same price as a MAC lipstick but it is worth it in my opinion. Overall, I will rate this product 4/5!
