Late March Favourites

Here are the products I have been loving through out the month of march and into April. I haven't done a favourites post in a while as I have been trying out a lot of new products and I haven't been sticking to the same products - but these four have just been constantly in use through out march and April.

1. Bioderma Ultra Soothing Cream: I bought two products from Bioderma a couple of months ago now and one of them as worked its way into my everyday skincare routine. I have been using this facial moisturiser from Bioderma for the past month and I love it. It is a moisturiser for irritated, very dry sensitive skin which describes my skin almost exactly. The moisturiser is 100ml and I have used up about a quarter (or just over) in a month. Love this product, I will write a full review as soon as I can. 

2. Yves Rocher Sexy Plump Mascara: A long standing favourite of mine, I have had this sample longer than anyone should probably but I just love it! This has to be my favourite mascara of all time (I also love the Diorshow waterproof mascara but it is quite expensive). This makes my lashes look volumised, defined and lengthened but natural and gorgeous!

3. Benefit Fake Up Concealer: I received this half way through March (I won it in a Debenhams competition) and I really like it - although it is not without its faults. The shade is great, it applies nicely (when applied in a certain way) and it doesn't really look caky - full review soon. 

4. Cosmopolitan Beauty Sponge: My last favourite of this month has to be my Cosmopolitan Beauty Foundation Sponge which I have been buying for years (maybe three years now). I have been using this sponge to apply my foundation all of this month as my skin has been super super dry and flaky because of an eczema break out and this sponge (when damp) is the only way I can apply foundation when my eczema flares up. I don't know what I would do without this product!

Week in photographs #14

My week has consisted of: snow (again), uni work (again), Pizza Hut pizza, Easter chocolate, depotting eyeshadows, shopping and spring cleaning!

Snow...again, I hate snow! I have been burning/melting my Kringle Candle wax tarts this week, as I wanted a change and I have quite a few of them. I love the vanilla lavender scent, although it can be a little strong. Also, its Easter, so family and friends have been round so that and the cold weather have led to unhealthy eating in the form of a Pizza Hut pizza (Margherita with cream sauce) and a giant milk chocolate Lindt bunny! *drools*

This week has also been spend sorting out clothes, makeup and depotting eye shadows - I have a couple of large Front Cover makeup sets so I cut out all of the eye shadows (which did take ages and resulted in sore fingers) but they are great baked shadows. I am going to buy the 'dome Z palette' soon for them - I probably should have bought the palette first but I was in a cleaning/sorting mood!

Also this week I send my review of the Benefit Fake Up Concealer to Debenhams. I have been using the new Benefit concealer for about two weeks now and I do really like it - although it isn't as amazingly incredible as I thought it would be. Full review coming soon!

I hope you all had a great week and have a nice Easter! x
