OK so this post may be a little late but I wanted to share with you my favourites of 2012...
What have been your beauty highlights for 2012?
- Lee Stafford Hair Treatment - £7.99 - I love this product, it makes my hair feel amazing and I feel like it has grown more since I have been using it - Review here
- Soap and Glory Cosmetics, Trick and Treatment Concealer - £9 and Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss Sticks - £8 - Again I have been loving these. I am not a massive fan of lip sticks as I find them drying but I love these as they give a colour which lasts for hours.
- Illamasqua Pure Pigment in Beguile - £15.50 - If you follow Louise at Sprinkle of Glitter on her blog or youtube channel then you will know how much she loves this. I brought this on her recommendation. This is such a nice eye shadow, perfect for christmas or a night out. It is so pigmented (as you would expect from the name) and this one is such a nice sparkly shade.
- Lush Snow Fairy - from £3.25 - This to me smells like Lush in a bottle - This is such a fantastic smell. Its such a shame this is only avaliable at Christmas but I stocked up to last me!
- OPI Polishes - I'm all Ears and You only live twice - £11 - These 2 were my first OPI purchases (the others I have were gifts). I love these, I can see why people rave about these.
- Benefit Hello Flawless foundation - £24.50 - I started using this towards the end of 2012 and I am completely in love. It is such a fantastic foundation. It feels so light on my skin and allows skin to breath as well as giving a great coverage - Review here
- Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish - £14.25 - This has been my favourite product find of 2012. I only started again using this in late 2012 but I am in love and have already taken advantage of Liz Earle Christmas offers to repurchase it.
- Sally Hansen Insta Dry - £5.99 - You all know how much I love to change my nail polish lots and this product makes it so quick and easy to do this! - Review here
- Real Techniques Brushes - £20ish - This has been my joint find in 2012. I really got into using make up more this year and I have seriously extended my make up brush collection this year. These brushes are my all time favourites.
- Accessorise Lovely Day Palette - £8.99 - This has been my go to palette this year. It has all the colours I use in and I love that they are all in one place - what more can you ask for!
- Mac Skin Finish in Soft and Gentle - £21.50 - My first Mac purchase has been a complete and utter success. I am so in love with this product. It has slipped right into my make up routine and I am loving using it!
- Benefit Porefessional - £23.50 - Again something else I discovered in late 2012 but again something I love. This makes my make up look so much better and I am really loving using it.
I really feel like I
have found my make up self in 2012. I have tried so many different
products and have really found some ones I love. I cant wait to keep
discovering new things in 2013.
What have been your beauty highlights for 2012?
In my recent haul video from the start of this month you will have seen that I purchased the Hello Flawless Oxygen Wow! Foundation from Benefit. This foundation is £24.50 for 300ml and is an oil free foundation which contains SPF 25.
Here is what Benefit say about the product:
"Hello…it’s flawless time! Our new oil-free brightening liquid foundation builds from light to medium coverage for a natural complexion you can believe in. It’s you…just more luminous & healthy looking."
I have been using this product since I brought it and I am absolutely in LOVE! It is such a lovely foundation. I put this on with my Real Techniques Buffing Brush and start by putting it on the back of my hand. The first thing to notice about how runny this is. I thought when I first put it on the back of my hand and saw the consistency of it I was going to be disappointment. However when I put in on and blended it into my skin I was completely won over. It blends in beautifully and offers a really good coverage. This sounds really strange but I feel like my skin can breath when I have it on and yet it offers a good enough coverage to offer a full coverage.
Like I say I have been wearing this foundation since I brought it. I find this such a nice every day foundation. It offers a great every day coverage without being heavy on my skin and feeling like it clogging my pores up. I am still in love with my No7 foundation but I think I am going to save that for nights out as it is thicker coverage and offers a good evening coverage.
Overall I love this foundation, it is more expensive then I have spent on a foundation before but I feel like it is going to go a long way, you really dont need a lot. I just use a pump and it covers my whole face and blends down into my neck too.
There are 7 different shades available, I went for the shade Honey which is a perfect match to my skin.
Have you tried this foundation??? Are you in love??
