October Favourites 2012!

Hey, so today I thought I would do my first monthly favourites post. It took me a while to pick a handful of things I have been loving this month but I got a (kinda) small list together of all the things I have loved this month. All together there are 11 things I have been loving this month. Over time I plan on adding a blog of the month as well as a YouTube channel of the month but for now I just have 5 categories: Make-Up Products Of The Month, Skin Care Products Of The Month, Body Products Of The Month, Read Of The Month, Song Of The Month, T.V. Program Of The Month and Film Of The Month. So yeah, lets get crack-a-lacking.

Make-Up Products Of The Month:

So, this month, I have 5 make-up products I have been loving.

The first make-up product I have been loving was featured in a recent haul. Its the 'Miss Sporty So Clear Pressed Powder in 001 Transparent'. I have been loving this product as it gives me good coverage, it tops my skin looking oily or shiny for longer than any other powder I have used and I think it is helping to make my skin less break-out prone. This product gets a 10 out of 10 from me.






The next make-up product is a blusher. It is the 'New York Colour Check Glow Blush in 655 Central Park Pink'. This blush is my everyday, go to blusher because it is a natural peachy pink colour and looks beautiful lightly brushed over the apples of my checks. I wear it most days and love it to bits. It goes with any make-up look and is perfect for me as I am not a fan of the bright blusher look. I have had it for ages and never reached for it until recently and I am so glad I did. I don't understand how this was just sat in my draw for ages and I never even knew how beautiful and lovely it was. So glad I discovered it and I am totally repurchasing it when I run out.




The pictures do not do this blush justice. When you are next in
a drugstore go a swatch it and if you don't see what I mean
you must be mad. Sorry for how messy these pictures are.


Next is a lip gloss I have been loving this month. It was featured in my first ever haul and since I bought it I have feel head over heels in love with it. It's the 'Rimmel London Stay Glossy Lip Gloss in 710 Diamond Dust'. I reach for this lip gloss every day as its not overly sparkly or sticky and is really easy to wear and pull off. I wear it to school most days as it gives me a pale, shiny nude lip and looks lovely and discreet. I think you should definitely buy it if you can get your hands on it.




My next favourite is a mascara. It's the 'Oriflame Beauty Lash Extreme Mascara in Black'. This mascara is amazing for length and gives your lashes loads of length. It also curls them really well and makes them look really defined all day. I got this mascara off eBay and love it. Its amazing and I think everyone should buy it. Lovely day-to-day mascara and makes you look more awake and bright. I think it gives you the length that fake lashes give you and makes it look like your eye lashes are super long and defined. I would recommend this mascara to everyone.




The last make-up product is a lipstick. I love lipsticks and I have been wearing this one a lot throughout autumn. I love brighter, darker lipsticks in autumn and this one has been a favourite of mine this autumn. It's the 'Maybelline New York Forever Metallic Lipstick in 44 Berry Bronze'. As the name suggests it is a berry colour with some bronze/gold undertones. I love it and think its a really beautiful colour for this autumn/winter season. 






Skin Care Products Of The Month:

There is only 1 skin care product of this month and that product is a 'T-Zone Mattifying Moisturiser by The Beauty Parlour'. I have oily skin so this product is really good because it mattifies my skin while moisturising it. I love this product because it stops me breaking out, stops my skin from getting to oily or shiny and helps keep my skin looking smooth.




Body Product Of The Month:

I also only have 1 body product I have been loving this month and it is the 'Victoria's Secret Body Mist in Wild Scarlet'. I bought this last year when I was in the America and I never really used it until recently. It is meant to smell of: Juicy Apple, Lilly And Sheer Musk'. I think it smells very sweet and warm and that is why I have been loving it for the transition between summer and autumn. I am almost half way through the 250ml bottle and I am scared of it running out so I think I am going to have to cut down on using that this winter because, if I keep using it, it will run out. I am scared of it running out because we can't get it in the UK and I love it to bits. If you live any where with a 'Victoria's Secret', definitely go and buy this.




Read Of The Month:

My read of the month this month has been 'Uglies by Scott Westerfeld'. I have only just started reading this book but am in love with it already. The whole concept of the book fascinates me and I can't wait to finish this book and move on to the other books in the series.




Song Of The Month:

My song of the month this month is '212 by Azealia Banks featuring Lazy Jay. I love this song as its very up beat and, every time I hear it, it makes me want to get up and dance. I have had it on repeat while writing this blog post and I love it to bits. Definitely go and check it out if you have never heard of it before.


T.V. Program Of The Month:

My T.V. program of this month was the 'Pretty Little Liars Halloween Special'. It was scary, fast moving and thrilling, just like 'Pretty Little Liars' always is. There was SO much going on and, at the end, you were left confused and fulfilled at the same time. If you have never watched 'Pretty Little Liars' I think you should definitely go and watch it. Start at the start and watch it all in order otherwise it might confuse you. By the way, the costumes were AMAZING in this episode. 




Film/Movie Of The Month:

My film of the month this month is 'Horrible Bosses'. I think its so funny and, in some ways, very relatable. Everyone has that person/s in their life they would (sometimes) love to kill. It is rated a 15 and be aware that there is sexual content in this movie. But I do think its funny and recommend this movie to people of the right age. 




So, that's the end of my first ever monthly favourites post. Please follow this blog if you liked this. I hope you enjoyed this post and I will talk to you next time.
