October was very uneventful when it came to gathering my monthly favourites, mostly because what I had been loving throughout August & September seemed to stick for October too. November however was all about revisiting some of my old favs as well as discovering a few new ones.
Beauty Favourites
Urban Decay Naked Smoky Palette | £38
I raved and raved about this beauty here and ever since the air has turned colder, this is the palette I have been reaching for daily. Despite being designed for the creation of smoky eyes, I find this little gem extremely versatile, allowing me to come up daytime looks too, thanks to its lighter shades, High and Combust. If you wish to see a more detailed review as well as swatches, check out my previous post here.

Lotion is a winter must and my dry skin has for sure been secretly thanking me for slapping this all over right after a hot shower. If you remember seeing this before, I got this on my last Glossybox (see all contents here) and I am so glad I did because I wouldn't have known about it otherwise. I won't describe its scent because I wouldn't be doing it any justice with my failed sense of smell. But I find it to be an incredibly nourishing body lotion with the right consistency and texture, that is absorbed at a speedy rate and doesn't feel sticky or oily. LOVE this!
Lanolips 101 Ointment | £7.99
If you are a dry lip sufferer like me, you will know how hard it is to find something that actually works. This however, outperforms all other types of lip balms, giving them a natural shine and healing sore lips as well as corners of the mouth. Boots sell a multitude of lip products which stay on momentarily but I know when I put Lanolips, my lips will feel nourished instantly and for longer. It does cost a bit more than ordinary lip balms, but I am finding it to be well worth its price tag. This is another Glossybox find, this time from the October instalment (here).
This is my 3rd bottle already and I can't have rave enough about it (and I won't). In a nutshell, this exudes femininity with its elegant and fruity smell which is also sweet but not too over the top. I will even go as far as saying that this is my all time favourite perfume, and one that I will surely repurchase over and over again in the foreseeable future.
Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula Concentrated Cream* | £1.99
Dry limps anyone? With this, you only need the smallest amount to moisturise even the driest skin. I use it as an intensive hand and foot cream too, and it leaves both my hands feet so soft and supple, and looking like I have had a mani and pedi done. Even though its consistency is thicker than your usual hand cream, it is non-greasy and absorbs quickly. And to top it all off, it has that amazing Cocoa Butter we all love. This stuff is seriously amazing!
Fashion Favourites
A new watch was on my Christmas wishlist but Santa came a little earlier this year! When Cluse got in touch, I could hardly say no to a beauty such as this one. This model features an ultra thin case with a 38 mm diameter which is a little larger than what I would usually wear, but it is crafted with such precision that I find it nothing less than sophisticated and elegant. Better yet, if I get tired of the pink strap, it can be easily interchanged for the various colours available. This has not left my wrist ever since it arrived and I am sure I will wear it continuously throughout fall and spring.
Fall wouldn't be complete without a vibrant tartan plaid scarf, and this stunningly soft and cosy scarf is match made in heaven for the chilly days ahead of us. Just like the watch, this has been my every day companion and I love how expensive it looks despite its tiny price tag. Amazing quality, amazing store, amazing prices; check them out here.
What are your favourites this month? Let me know below or leave your links so I can check them out!
Thanks for reading beauties and wishing you all a nice week ahead!
25 days until Christmas Eve, eeeeeep!

My favorites will go live tomorrow, so I won't give away any spoilers! But there hasn't been much new for me in November. I had my big seasonal makeup change in October, I guess.

I hate my Naked Smoky and was so disappointed in it. The pigmentation and quality is terrible in comparison to Naked 1 palette. :-( I know there are many who love it but somehow I can't get along with it.
ReplyDeleteShireen | Reflection of Sanity
really? Mine is pigmented, but not as the Naked I will give you that. But remember, it isn't supposed to be extremely pigmented because can you imagine creating a blendable smokey eye if the colour pay off was extremely high! I know I would probably end up making a big ol' mess! ;)

Adorava experimentar as sombras da Urban Decay! :)

Your watch is so cute! Love it!! And I am a major fan of Urban Decay. I don't have the smokey eye palette, but the palettes I have of theirs are definitely my favorites!

That Miss Dior perfume bottle is so cute! And I'd love to get the UD Smoky Palette, the shades look pretty as!
ReplyDeleteStarting January I`m renewing my Glossybox subscription, you got some lovely things lately. After 2 months the new landlord finally installed our post box, so I can get my mail:))
ReplyDeleteP.S. that watch is so cute!I normally stay away from pink, but that one looks really nice.

Another perfect post. What kind of sorcery is this?
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting that palette since it came out and I haven't had the change to buy it yet, and my family really doesn't understand much of this department. My friend owns it though and I agree with you, this can be worn at anytime of the day. I often know she's wearing two shades that aren't anything close to smoky eye. But I think it'd look fabulous too.
And that's a really beautiful watch.
