February Favourites 2014!!!

Hello everyone, I hope you are all well. I'm so sorry that it has taken me more than a week to post my favourites for last month, I need to get better at in future! But nevertheless here we go with my February favourites...

1. My "Doc Martens" boots 

 Right, these aren't real Doc Martens but they look exactly the same but they were a cheaper price! I don't know what the shop was called but they do some lovely shoes in there and it's a shop in Milton Keynes Shopping Centre. 

Anyway, before I wore them they gave me blisters so I had to stretch them out a little bit inside before I really got to wear them. I still wear plasters with them when I do wear them because I feel more secure in that I wont get any redness or blisters that way. 

I really love these boots because they're so easy to wear, they go with virtually anything, they're perfect for winter/autumn time. They are absolutely a god send in the rainy weather because you're feet do not even get cold or wet at all. 

As you can see from the picture on the right they are just lace up and a zip and they're pretty plain but they will go with absolutely any outfit. But as the warmer months come along I will probably be into my cute little converses and sandals etc. 




2. Charlie - Enchanted  

This month I have been adoring this spray because it's just really light weight and sweet scented floral smell. I feel like as it's becoming warmer and were moving into spring that I will wear body sprays soon more than perfumes just so I'm not over loaded with different smells whereas winter I feel like it's not as bad.

I feel like body sprays will become a massive thing this year for me through spring and summer! 








3. Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream 

This month BB cream has been my go to face product because these are so much easier and quicker to apply than foundation and right now my skin is pretty bad in clearness because I keep forgetting to cleanse it at night (don't judge me). I've also ran out of primer and do not have enough money to go and buy more because the foundation I have looks dreadful on my skin without primer underneath it. 

Also, I feel that BB cream looks more natural which is what I prefer in spring and summer because for me it's all about still looking nice with less hassle. Therefore I may not go back to the foundation I had, I might just stick to BB cream and concealer. 

But for BB cream it just blends into the skin as it's moisturising and gives a natural shine/glow to my skin therefore I have just really been preferring to use this a lot this month. 


4. PS Love... Brow Pencil

Oh my god, I cannot express to you how much I love this brow pencil because I have looked so long for an eyebrow pencil to match my hair colour and it is so hard as I've never dyed my hair like most girls, therefore my hair colour and eyebrow colour is virtually the same. 

This is quite a chocolate brown colour but the top layer of my hair has been dyed by the sun there it's a dark/chestnut colour on top which is perfect because this eyebrow pencil matches that. 

I've been having a play around with the super dark/thick brow look and today I tried the more natural subtle colour brow and I think I will fill them in really lightly from now on instead of pressing the colour on as it doesn't look as nice as what I tested today. But I've been adoring this brow pencil and you should all go and grab one from Primark as it's their makeup range! They are in brown and blonde and a darker brown I think.  

5. Colour Couture Dramatic Eyes 
Okay everyone, I got this set for Christmas from my auntie and uncle and I've been really loving trying out different eye looks with the colours as they were more day winter looks and I really enjoyed playing around with them. 


 The packaging is the cutest thing ever and I can't even describe how perfect it is as it so beautiful. I just love it. 








Here we have what is in the set, the eyeshadow colours: you get 10 different colours of light and dark. You get three eyeshadow dusts in a white/silver colour, a grey colour and a black colour. 

You also get some mascara and eyeliner along with some little applicators. 

Finally, a how to do a certain look guide to get you started! 








6. Colour Couture Lipgloss  
 This was the second set I got from my auntie and uncle and I didn't use it for a little while until Feb and now and I adore this set! 

The colours in it are so good just for a plain lip for just lip gloss or you can layer them over lipstick to make them more glossy and less dry which is what I do with a lot of these lip glosses.

Once again, this packaging is just adorable and I cannot get over how much I love it!! 





 Okay, in this kit you get 4 lip glosses in tubes which you can slip into your makeup bag or handbag etc. 

You receive 9 pallet lip glosses which are alot less pigmented than the tube glosses. But I've mainly used the red, light pink, dark pink and medium purple shade in the actual pallet colours. 

In the tube lip glosses I've used the more natural lip colour which is the first one on the left, I've also used the dark pink one next to it and more recently the light pink one as I have lipstick in that colour now. I think I will use the very end one in more summer time. 

It also comes with a lip applicator which helps apply lipstick and the gloss and I adore that as it's made wearing lipstick with gloss easier. 

Again, it comes with another how to do a certain lip style. 

You also get a lip gloss glitter in a tube, but personally I do not like it as I think that is a bit tacky and the glitter inside is green not just plain glitter. It also makes my lips feel tingly and weird and I do not like that.  


Okay that is everything everyone, I am sorry that there hasn't been many this month, but I am hoping as March is now here that there'll be a lot more in this up coming month. 

Thank you all so much for reading if you did and I may post again a few days depending on what I can post and think of. But I will get back to you soon... hopefully. 

Bye for now guys, 

- Katie
