2016 Beauty Favourites

In 2016 I have discovered so many beauty products that I have fallen in love with and know that I will be using and repurchasing for years to come. I though I would share with you my 2016 favourites.

As far as hair products go my staple products have been the Macadamia Deep Repair Masque, this masque makes my hair so unbelievably soft, I use this once or twice a week and it is simply amazing. When it come to styling my hair I have been curling my hair with the Mark Hill curling wands, Mark Hill is defiantly my favourite brand for electrical styling products.

For skin care there are 3 stand out products that have become real staples in my skincare routine. First up is the Clinique Moisture Surge Moisturiser, this is a more recent discovery but it is by far the best moisturiser I have ever used. The Mario Badescu Drying Lotion is another product I can't get enough of, this little bottle is pure magic! It clears up my skin and gets rid of all of my spots, incredible!! The lip balm I am obsessed with is the Nuxe Lip Balm, it makes my lips so soft and keeps them moisturised.

Moving onto makeup products, the Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation has been one of my all times favourites it is the perfect everyday foundation. The Benefit Pro-fessional Primer works wonders at reducing the size of my pores and helps my foundation stay on all day. The NYX HD Concealer is incredible at brightening your under eyes, the quality of the product is insane. More recently I picked up the Benefit Cheekathon Palette which I love so much, Benefit is one of my favourite brands for blush and bronzer so having them in this convenient little pallet is a dream come true!! As far as highlighter goes Becca Champaign Pop is the winner for me, it lives up to all the hype from social media. This year I discovered the Spectrum makeup brushes, the quality of these brushes is incredible, and they are a cruelty free brand which is an added bonus.

There are two eye shadow palettes that I have been obsessed with this year and that has to be the Tarte in Bloom Palette and the Wet n Wild Walking on Egg Shells Trio, I love everything about these palettes from the quality of the shadows to the insane colour pay-off. Benefit Roller Lash is by far the best mascara I have ever used, I know I will be purchasing it for years to come. In 2016 I also discovered my love for the Red Cherry Lashes and the NYX Brow Contour, both really great products that I highly recommend.

If you have read some of my other blog posts then you can probably guess which lip products I use all the time. Since NYX has become easier to get a hold of in the UK I have enjoyed trying out all of their products, but the NYX Liquid Suede's and the Lip Creams are on a whole other level, there are so many amazing shades to choose from!

Let me know what your favourite product of 2016 has been. I wish you all the best in 2017.

Lots of love,
