Beauty and Lifestyle Blog
It is favourites time again and I have been loving a lot of things throughout November. I can’t believe it’s December already, this year has flown and it’s almost half way through the university year. Deadlines are approaching and I’m pretty scared about it!
I’ve been loving a lot of products over the past month and I really had to limit everything I put into this post otherwise it would be way too long! Here are my November Favourites 2016.
*I am awaiting an email from Collection regarding their animal testing policy. I will update this post when I find out more*
I have recently been trying out a new foundation from Collection cosmetics, the Illuminating Touch Foundation. Before I went away to Prague, (I will write about it eventually, I promise!) I was in dire need of a new foundation. My trusty NYX Stay Matte but Not Flat was coming to an end, and while I lusting after the Too Faced Born This Way foundation, I opted for a much cheaper alternative.
Superdrug had their three for two offer on at the time, and while most beauty bloggers would go for it and buy just about everything, I got the travel bits and pieces I needed, as well as the Collection Illuminating Touch Foundation. I have always loved their Lasting Perfection Concealer, so surely the foundation must be okay too, right?
As I haven’t written a favourites post since July and it is a bit late to do a September Favourites post, I thought I would just do a Cruelty-Free Beauty Favourites post instead. Going cruelty-free is such an easy change to make and there’s so many wonderful cruelty-free brands available on the highstreet.
Here is a roundup of the cruelty-free beauty, skincare and hair products that I have been loving throughout August, September and October (oops).
Dr Botanicals is a cruelty-free and vegan skincare brand based in London. Using 100% natural ingredients, Dr Botanicals specialise in plant-based, paraben free skincare products. I was recently contacted by them asking if I would like to be sent some products from their gorgeous Moroccan Rose Collection to review. Of course, I said yes please! Dr Botanicals are more on the higher-end of the skincare spectrum, making them a perfect pay-day treat.
I recieved two products from the Dr Botanicals Moroccan Rose Collection. The Moroccan Rose Natural Facial Moisturiser* and the Moroccan Rose Superfood Facial Oil*. These products are both formulated with Moroccan rose oil which regenerates and replenishes your skin.
If you are a regular reader, you will already know that I have switched out all of my beauty and skincare products for ones that are cruelty-free. Thanks to The Bloggers Hangout, I recieved the Akar Skin Sample Kit* to review from Akar Skin. I have really enjoyed trying a range of products.
Akar Skin products are made up of 100% natural ingredients which is so reassuring and lovely to hear when researching a new brand.
We all have bad beauty habits. Admit it. There’s so many things us ladies tell ourselves that we need to do but never get around to it. Every now and then you need a little push to get back on track and clear out your beauty products and try new things! Today I’m sharing 5 Bad Beauty Habits that You Need to Break!
I am in no means telling you that you have to do these things. This post is a bit of fun and I would love to hear about your bad beauty habits too!
