March 2014 - My Monthly Favourites!

I haven't done these for a while but as I have been loving so many great products this months, I thought this would be a great time to do a monthly favourites post again!

This time round it'll be purely make up as I have been really obsessed with quite a few products!

Base Products

As we have been moving into spring I have been very focused on achieving natural yet perfected skin and these products worked great for me in the past month:

L'Oreal Nude Magique Eau de Teint in "Ivory"

Skink79 Super Blemish Balm

Rimmel Fix & Perfect Primer

Maybelline Dream Touch Lumi Concealer in "Ivory"

Collection Illuminating Touch Concealer in "Natural"

Rimmel Scandal Eyes Waterproof Kohl Eyeliner in "Nude"

Benefit High Brow Glow

Cream Blushes

For me spring and cream blushes go hand in hand and I have worn these two pretty much all month - either on their own or topped with a powder blush.

Maybelline Facestudio Masterglaze Blushstick in "Pinch Pink"

MUA Cream Blusher in "Yummy" 


Face Powders

As my goal was a natural, luminous complexion I have felt naturally drawn to products helping me achieve these and the following four have worked particularly well for me this month:

Physicians Formula Happy Booster in 52 "Natural"

The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer

Bourjois Healthy Balance Compact Powder in 52 "Vanille"

Too Faced Milk Chocolate Soleil Bronzer


Eyeshadows

This month I was all about neutral eyes with muted pink/rose-gold twist and I in particular enjoyed the below products as they give a beautiful finish and wear really well.

Urban Decay Naked 2

Sally Girl - Single Eyeshadows in "Midnight", "Brick", "Cranberry" and  "Cinammon"

L'Oreal Infallible Eyeshadows in " Hourglass Beige", " Forever Pink" and "Amber Rush"
(Review of the first two shades here)

Mascara

These were my go-to mascaras for super black, fluttery lashes:

Smashbox Full Exposure Mascara in "Jet Black"
(Review here)

Physicians Formula Organic Wear Jumbo Lash Mascara in "Ultra Black"

Essence "I heart Extreme" Volume Mascara in "Black"

Lip Balms

This months I've kept my lips soft with:

Maybelline Babylips in "Peach Kiss", "Intense Care" and Dr. Rescue "Peachy"

Blistex Mediplus

Lipsticks

I have been all about the nude lip this month and found three really flattering shades which are great for paler skin tones. (All lipsticks also have a really smooth and creamy formula).

Too Faced La Creme in "Deep Maple" (1.)

Maybelline Colorsense Nude Lipstick in "Tantalizing Taupe"

L'Oreal Color Riche Privee Collection by Cheryl

Balm Sticks

For a quick shine boost of comfortable color I always had a balm stick in my handbag!

Catrice Pure Shine Balm in "Go Flamingo Go", "Rusty in Peace" and "Rose Woody"

(Catrice Cosmetics is available in drugstores in Germany, Austria, Spain, Croatia, Switzerland, Portugal, Hungary and Slovakia)

These are my "Monthly Favourites" for March! 

I think next months post will have a skin care focus to balance things out!

I'd love to know your favourites!
