I cannot believe how quickly April has come around! We're a quarter of the way through 2013 already, it seems to be whizzing by so fast! I hope everyone had a lovely Easter weekend and ate far too much chocolate than they were supposed to! I had a great weekend and spent it with my family and boyfriend eating roast turkey and lots of cakes (definitely going to have to start a diet this April haha!). Last month there were a few products that I had been reaching for a lot, plus a couple that I have just really enjoyed using. So in this post I am going to talk about these lovely little products!
♥ Dr Jart+ Water Fuse Beauty Balm LINK
This was a prize I had won from Chelsea's (Through Chelsea's Eyes) giveaway. I had never heard of or tried this brand before so I was very excited to try it out! I'm so glad I did because this is one of the nicest BB creams I have ever tried! The consistency of this BB cream is almost like a light weight foundation and blends out really well to give a light, natural coverage. Despite being a light coverage product, this BB cream does cover up and blend out imperfections very well. I've enjoyed using this on lazy days round the house with a little bit of powder to give a natural finish to my skin.
♥ Revlon Colourburst Lip Butters (Review) LINK
These are probably some of the most hyped up lip products on the beauty scene and I for one absolutely love them! The two colours I've been loving this month are Strawberry Shortcake and Berry Smoothie, both of which are pink shades. I've found these perfect for throwing on for college as they give a lovely flush of colour to the lips. I also love how moisturising and soft they feel on the lips! I can't wait to pick up some of the new shades that have just been released, especially Pink Lemonade and Juicy Papaya (they sound so yummy)!
♥ Urban Decay Eyeshadow Sparkle in Midnight Cowgirl LINK
This is one of those eye shadows that should be a staple in every girl's makeup collection! Midnight Cowgirl is a gorgeous shimmery nude champagne which is perfect to place all over the lid for a daytime look. I love using this when I'm going for a simple eye look and bolder lips as it gives your eyes that pretty hint of shimmer! Urban Decay is my favourite brand for eye shadows as the formula and colour selection are amazing!
♥ Barry M Basecoat, Topcoat & Nail Hardener in Clear LINK
This is my final favourite product from March and, despite looking quite boring, is probably my most favourite! This Barry M nail paint is a 3 in 1 base/ top coat polish that can help strenghen up your nails. As you may know my nails are very weak and constantly peel and snap off, so I thougth for just £2.99 I'll give it a go! This is probably one of the best, cheap clear polishes I have tried! Other ones I have tried just peel off and hardly protect my polish from chipping. This one however prevents my polish from chipping and has definitely made my nails a lot stronger! If I'm not wearing any nail polish I'll just apply 1 layer of this and I've found my nails hardly peel or split! Definitely a polish worth picking up if you have weak nails like me.
And they're my favourite products for March! I hope you enjoyed this post, as usual if there are any products you want a more in depth review on please just let me know in the comments!

Thank you :) They're both lovely products, I hope you get round to trying the lip butters soon! xx
DeleteI really want the juicy papaya lip butter too! I don't actually own any but I've always looked at the berry smoothie x
ReplyDeleteI think you'll really like Berry Smoothie :) Maybe pick them up in the Boots 3 for 2? I know I'm going to haha :) xx
DeleteThat Urban Decay eyeshadow looks gorgeous! I may need to get my hands on that...
ReplyDeleteIt's so pretty, literally one of the nicest shadows I own! xx
DeleteI love Strawberry Shortcake as well. It's the only one I have, and I don't really feel the need to purchase another color cause I love it so much. But I probably should get more.
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Strawberry Shortcake is such a pretty pink, definitely a staple for anyone's makeup bag :) Thanks! xx
DeleteReally need to get a lip butter! They sound really nice x

I know! I was very lucky to win this one but I think they're reduced to £12 in Boots at the moment :) I love the Water Fused one, looks like a foundation yet is very light weight on the skin. I'm thinking of doing a review on it soon so keep an eye out! xx
Deleteneeed to try the rimmel butters!
ReplyDeleteI really recommend them :) xx

Definitely pick up the Clear one, best top coat I've tried :) All of Barry M's nail paints are amazing though! xx
DeleteLove Revlon, but in Germany there is no Revlon anymore =( Very Sad!
ReplyDeleteGreets
Oh no :( That's a shame! Revlon's such a nice brand too xx
DeleteBerry Smoothie is one of my favorite lip products of all time!! And when you put it in the terms that we're already a quarter of the way through 2013... yikes!! Really puts into perspective how much this year has flown by even though it has felt a bit slow (if that makes any sense!) haha :)

It's such an easy shade to wear :) I know! I can't believe how quick 2013 is going! Yes I know what you mean, March definitely felt like it dragged! xx
DeleteI love the Urban Decay eyeshadow too, I think Midnight Cowgirl is probably one of my favourite UD shades purely because it's so easy to wear! I've just bought a Revlon lip butter in Pink Lemonade, haven't tried it yet but I'm dying to after all the hype about them!
ReplyDeletehttp://d-is-for.blogspot.co.uk
