September Fave's 2011

In no particular order the products I am really rating and reaching for through the month of September, enjoy;



  • Flora- Gucci,. My boyfriend picked this up for me at a product sale at his place of work. It is such a sweet girly scent, perfect for the day or evening, personally I wear it ALL THE TIME :)



  • Gucci Guilty shower gel,. again a product my boyfriend got for me, this is more on the fruity side of scents, but still sweet and I just love it. The gel itself leaves you smelling great and feeling really moisturized after a shower, it also lathers up really well which is a must for my shower gels. I love love love this scent and the actual perfume is top of my Christmas list now.



  • Natural Collection Passionfruit Body Spray - £2 -Boots. Ok, so I now look like I have a smelly problem with all the scented products I have in this months favorites, I assure you I don't :). I picked this up to use as a general all over body spray to freshen up during the day. Its very light and refreshing and does a great job of cooling you down in the heat, yes there has been "heat" in Britain this month. The scent wasn't one I thought I would enjoy but it is lovely, very fruity and very nice. 



  • Batiste Dry Shampoo - Coconut & exotic tropical - £1.59 Superdrug (on offer). I was very dubious of dry shampoo's and always imagined they would do nothing but make my hair sticky and full of product. Oh how I was wrong, I picked this up on offer to try it out. It smells like Malibu which automatically makes it awesome. Due to having massivly damaged hair from bleaching this enables me to go a lot longer between washes, so I damage my hair less, yet this keeps it looking fresh as a daisy and non greasy. Its a winner in my books and I shall be repurchasing for the month of October. 



  • Silver & Turquoise Ring. My mother got me this a few weeks ago now, and it is never off my finger. I really like the colour of the stone and the chunkiness of the ring. Not much else I can say other than I really enjoy wearing it and its a nice statement piece. 



  • La Femme Blush - Pink 5.5g - £2.99 - love make up. Now this colour looks so bright, and garish but just a small amount on the apples of the cheeks blended out gives the most beautiful flush to the face. It looks so natural and to me reminds me of when you get rosy cheeks after the wind has been nipping at your face. I really love La Femme blushes, the pigmentation and colour pay off is superb, a tiny amount goes a long way and they have a great range of colours to choose from, I am making it my own personal mission to obtain them all. 



  • Witch Pressed Powder - £2.49. This powder has became my fav this month purely because it is oil free. I have banged on enough about my skin, but basically I needed to find products that wouldn't add any more oil to my face, I discovered this on offer in Tesco and it is great. I wouldn't say it is the most amazing powder I have used, but for the price it does a pretty good job. I noticed my foundation lasted a lot longer after setting it with this powder, and oil was a little less of a problem during the day, oh it also provides a medium to build-able coverage. The colour is just natural I believe, it doesn't look orangey or cakey, and I recommend it for any of you guys struggling with oily skin or looking for oil free make up. 



Elf Conditioning Lip Balm SPF 15 - £3.50 - Mellow Mellon -  ELF. This is hands down the best, most conditioning balm I have ever used. Applied to dry chapped lips it has them sorted out within hours, if that! The colour payoff is great, and although this colour doesn't suit me too well, I still use it daily just to keep my lips nice and soft. The fact it contains SPF is great as the sun always dries out lips and makes them chapped, just like cold or harsh weather does, so you can't be too careful. I can't wait to get a few of the other colours to try,. oh and it smells divine too :)


  • Mac eyeshadow - Orb -£9.50. I use this all over the lids everyday without fail. It is a creamy natural colour and just makes the lids look flawless, teamed with black eyeliner and big eyelashes this is perfect for an everyday look. The formula is really creamy too making it a dream to apply, and it doesn't budge all day. I love it, so quick, easy and yet very effective. 


So that is it for my September favorites, sorry if it seems a bit short.
Thanks for reading,
Stay Classy
