Can you believe we're in November already? I don't know for you, but for me this year has flown by. It feels like last Christmas was only a week ago! So with October now left behind I'm going to talk about the products I have been loving for the past month.
I'll start with the Cerruti 1881 perfume. My mother in law brought me this from one of her trips to Germany and I literally haven't used any other perfume at all since then. I'm rubbish at explaining smells so I'm just going to say that smells super floral and fresh, which is exactly what I like in a perfume.
Since I ran out of my MAC settling powder I've been looking for a cheaper alternative to it and I've found it with Kick Ass Soap 'n' Glory's Instant Retouch Pressed Powder. It's totally translucent and it doesn't stick to my dry patches as some others do.
As I've mentioned before, I hate doing my eyebrows, especially on normal days as I don't like to over do them too much just to go to work so since I found the Maybelline Brow Satin Smoothing Duo my mornings have been a lot easier. It has a brow pencil and a filling powder and the result is very subtle and natural.
I've also been loving the BrushEgg. I don't know if you've heard about it yet but it's a so much cheaper alternative to a Sigma (or other expensive) cleaning brush glove. It really does work wonders and it makes the process of cleaning your brushes a lot easier. I will write a post about cleaning brushes with the Brush Egg very soon. You can get them for as little as £2 on eBay.
And last but not least, the lipstick that has quickly escalated to my top 1, the Maybelline New York Color Sensational Divine Wine Matte Lipstick. I am honestly super surprised with this one as I only picked it up because it looked like a nice color. I have never, ever had a lipstick that lasted so long on my lips. I put it on first thing in the morning and by the time I get back home at night it's still intact. I am not lying. I will definitely be buying a lot more of this lipsticks. The packaging is very sleek too!
So here are the products I've been loving for the past month! Do you have any of these? What are your October favorites?
That lipstick colour is divine!

ReplyDeleteI adore that lipstick shade, and the swatch makes it look such a nice creamy formula, do you find it a comfortable matte to wear?

I've seen these brush eggs around but I never knew what they were called - I'm so glad I now know the name so I can buy one! Thank you!
