October favourites :-)

Okay so I have loads of favourites this months but here are the ones I can't live without this month !! 


(Ignore the table and chairs haha )

So first of all:

Lee Stafford climate control spray

 
This spray I picked up when there was a 3 for 2 offer at boots.  My hair is thick and dry and frizzes up at any slight drop of moisture !! So I was curious about this spray. It claims to be a perfect umbrella for your hair and to keep hair under control from the horrid wind and rain.  I really like this spray as it actually does what it says ! My hair isn't a massive frizz bomb in the rain anymore !! Yay !! And it's  not bad for £5.99 either !! 

Givenchy la rouge lipstick 306 carmin


So I don't do red lips at all, I'm a pink girl but I thought I would give it a go and conquer my fear of looking like a stripper !! I have definitely found my perfect red, it's the most amazing colour and the lipstick is so long lasting ! The lipstick is so moisturising and nourishing and it such a couture accessory for my bag ! It comes in a leather case and smells divine ! 


Here i am wearing it ! I love it so much !! 

Origins super spot remover


I won't say too much about it because I have reviewed it before !! Check it out :-) I love this for any pesky pimples I get !! It's a-mazzzzing !!!! Will definitely keep buying it ! 

Urban decay de-slick oil control make up spray


This spray is actually amazing ! I picked up a small one for £9 just to trial it ! I spray this all over my face as a fine mist and use it to set my make up ! I'm finding I'm not touching my make-up up as much anymore and it really holds it all in place ! I can't recommend it enough for those with oily skin like mine ! 

Givenchy prisme libre no 2 



This powder is amazing !!! I lightly dust it over my foundation to set it ! It's so light an airy and has a slight but suttle shimmer to it ! The 4 different shades give a natural look to my skin, and make it more even ! It's a loose powder which I love on my oily skin ! And the packaging is so beautiful !!

Have you tried any of these products before ??

Nails inc galaxy nail lacquer

So it's no secret that I adore nails inc and have done for years ! They were the first luxury nail brand I bought (many years ago) 

I couldn't wait to try the new galaxy effect nail varnish ! And I managed to grab on in a pack on qvc last month ! 


The colour is a gorgeous silver, with different sized glitter inside.  It has a holographic effect too which I love when it catches the light ! 


This looks fab on its own with a couple of  coats, but you can also wear it over the top of another block colour ! 


I can't wait for the next unique effect polish to come out from nails inc ! definitely my favourite for quirky nail techniques ! This colour is called trafalgar crescent :)

What are your fave nails inc polishes ?

Givenchy acti'mine primer

Okay so I purchased this primer a week ago as I have quite a lot  of redness on my chin due to acne and I am desperate to hide it.

There are six shades in the range including colour correcting and illuminating. I went for acti kiwi as the green neutralises redness. 


The texture is only slightly rich but goes on really evenly.  I only use it on the areas that I need it then I pop my foundation on top.  It has an SPF of 15 in it and is packed full of vitamins so I know my skin wakes up when it's on.


So far I love this base as I know it's treating my skin as well as hiding imperfections. And for £25 it is worth every penny.

Have an of you tried these bases before? What did you think ?
