My Favourite Highlighters

Today I want to talk about highlighters. There are so many out there at the moment, and so many on my wish list, which makes it extremely hard to pick one! So today I just want to share the ones that I have in my collection and I will also post the ones that I wish I had! So without further ado, here are my current favourite highlighters.

The first one that I want to talk about is the Models Prefer Radiance collection, Ultimate Illuminating Palette (wow, what a mouthful!). This little palette has three powder highlighters to suit any skin tone and makeup look. They use the natural light to enhance your skin for a beautiful, radiant glow. The formula has a very smooth and buttery consistency, and blends out really well.





















Onto my next highlighter that I am loving and that is the BYS Cosmetics Highlighting trio in 01 - Beige. I love this little palette, it has three shades, one matte and two highlight shades. The colours are quite light on the skin, and have a very smooth consistency. The blend-ability is also very impressive, leaving your skin with a lovely, radiant glow.





















My last, but certainly not least highlighter is the famous Mary-Lou Manizer from The Balm. As you would know, this is a very popular product in the beauty community, and rightly so. I don't really need to go into too much detail with this item, as there are so many reviews on it already, but it is my Holy Grail highlighter. I love the  texture and formula and how glowy my skin looks after application. Also, a little bit goes a long way, which is a good thing!

The first one, which does have a lot of hype surrounding it, and for goor reason, is the ABH Nicole Guerriero Glow kit. This product looks so amazing, and the packaging is gorgeous! I absolutely cannot wait to get my hands on it.

I'm also keen on trying any of the TooFaced Prismatic Highlighter. I think the packaging looks so cute (I can be a sucker for cute packaging) and the colours look quite appealing. 
Anyway, I hope you enjoyed my post today. If there are any highlighters that you are loving, drop me a comment I would love to know!

April Favourites

April was a great beauty month for me. I managed to pick up a few awesome products that have since become some of my favourite items. So I will get right into it and show you what I was loving through the month of April.

I have been really good lately and using a primer everyday. My main issue with using a primer is that it is time consuming for me! Most mornings I am in a rush and don't have a lot of time to spare, so a primer sometimes gets skipped. That was until I discovered the BYS Cosmetics primer spray! I love this product, it's so simple and quick to use. Simply spray and leave to dry and you can apply your makeup! It is a great product that is essential in my makeup collection.

My foundation is the Mayelline Matte and Poreless. This is definitely one of my favourites, as I can tend to suffer from oily skin. I love the formulation and the way it applies to my skin, giving it that matte, flawless finish.

For eyeshadow, I am loving the BYS Cosmetics Berries eyeshadow palette. This is a stunning palette that has beautiful warm berry tones that work well with any look. I have reviewed this product in a previous post, which you can view here, so I won'y go into too much more detail. It has been my go to palette for everyday looks this past month and I love it.

I always use a face powder to set my foundation and the one I use is the one I always use. It's the Australis fresh and flawless powder and it will always be one of my favourites. I love the finish it gives your skin, while keeping it matte through out the day.


Finding the right blush is a tough task for me. Most I have don't seem to show up on my skin or look too pink! But the one I use that suits me is the Rimmel Contour Palette. This one is a three in one palette with a contour and highlight shade to compliment the blush. And they do! I use this product everyday, and have found out of my collection, it's the one that works best for me. This is usually the last step for me before I apply a setting spray.


And speaking of setting spray, I have never really used one before I purchased the Models Prefer Setting Spray. I love this product, and love how it keeps my makeup in place throughout the day.


The last product that I want to talk about is the Physicians Formula serum. This is such an amazing product, and I have also talked about this product before, which you can view here. Not mush else to say about this product other that I have noticed a huge difference in my skin since using it.


So that concludes my April favourites, a lot of the products in this post are ones that I always use, or go back to. Let me know what products you are loving at the moment, I would love to know!
