So today I wanted to share some of my favourite make-up finds from the drugstore! These are all fairly new to me, although a couple are old favourites too!
Rimmel Lash Accelerator mascara: This is one of my more recent purchases, and so far I'm really liking this mascara. I love the brush as it's super long and thin which means it's very lengthening, which I prefer. If I want more volume though, I'll sometimes mix it with my Max Factor False Lash Effect masara, and then I get the best of both worlds.
Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover: This is such a blogger favourite so I was so excited to try it, and it definitely didn't disappoint! I hate taking off my nail polish because it takes so long and can get a bit messy, but this makes it so much easier!
Rimmel Stay Matte powder: This powder is definitely an old favourite for me - I've been using it for years, but I feel like I hardly ever mention it. If I don't powder, then my make-up is practically gone by midday, so using this helps it stay on for longer and get rid of any excess oil.
No 7 Perfectly Bronzed Dual bronzer: I mentioned this briefly in my last haul, and I've been testing it out since then. So far, I really like it - I like to take a big powder brush and swirl the two shades together before applying it down the sides of my face. I just find that it gives a nice, natural glow to my skin without looking muddy or orange.
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat: Again, this is another old favourite that I've recently repurchased. As a bit of a nail polish addict, I honestly couldn't be without this top coat! After applying it to my nails, they are literally dry to the touch within a minute - such a life saver.
Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in Nudist: And lastly, this is a new find for me. I've wanted to try these ever since they came out, but I was a bit scared of the bold shades. I do actually own Pink Pong as well, but I'm still a bit wary of actually wearing it out, whereas this nude shade is perfect for me. I love the silky matte finish, and the colour is more up my street.

January has sped past so quickly, and so of course it's time to share with you the products I've been loving this month, along with a couple of non-beauty related things.
Soap & Glory Hand Food - I've had this product many times before, but never in this type of container. It was something I received for Christmas, and I've definitely been using it a lot! I put it next to my hand wash in my bathroom and so after I wash my hands I can pop a bit of this on for some extra moisture. The smell is the typical Soap & Glory one - which is amazing - and I'd definitely recommend trying it if you haven't already.
Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat - Again this is something I received for Christmas (sensing a theme?). Before getting this I was never one to use top coats, and yet now I don't paint my nails without it! It smooths down any bumps and dries super fast, so it's perfect if you're in a rush.
Rimmel Scandal Eyes Micro Eyeliner - If you know me, then you'll know I'm not a huge eyeliner wearer at all. However, I've always wanted to master felt tip liner and so I spontaneously picked this up in Boots a few weeks ago. Since then, I've been slowly incorporating it into my routine and have even attempted some cat flicks (without much success), and overall I've been loving it!
Diesel Loverdose Perfume - I'm a huge fan of sweet scents, and so when I received this for Christmas I was so excited to give it a try! Since getting it, I've used it pretty much every day and I absolutely love the scent. I've even had to stop myself from using it sometimes as I don't want it to run out too quickly.
Imperial Leather Foamburst Shower Gel - This is a bit of a random addition, but one I just had to include! This is my second bottle of this shower gel now, and I swear I'm never going back to the regular formula. Instead of the usual gel type consistency, this comes out as a white mixture, which when mixed with water turns into a foam! It's so much easier to use, and there are tons of scents to choose from (I recommend the lime or honey one).
MAC Quad Palette - I've already done a post on this so I won't say too much, but my MAC Quad has definitely been my go to palette this month, especially All That Glitters and Sumptuous Olive, as they go great together.
That's all of my beauty favourites for the month, but I also wanted to include a couple of lifestyle bits as well. I've really been getting into Tom Odell - especially his song I Know - I love his style of music and his songs are just amazing. I've also been reading a lot of books this month, my favorites so far being the Mortal Instruments series. I'm currently on the fourth one (so no spoilers please), and I'm in love!
