I havn't actually got alot of favourites this month but what i have enjoyed i know i'm gonna keep repurchasing and carry on enjoying.

Lush sleepy body lotion

You may feel i'm being over dramatic with this one but it literally has changed my life!! I have always been a troubled sleeper it can take me up to two hours every night to physically fall asleep which is why i can be so tired everyday. So when i kept hearing about this magic sleep lotion i had to try it. First of all i did ask for a couple of samples as i didn't want to pay for something that wasn't going to work. So after trying it for a few nights i was sold, SOLD!!! So i bought the big pot which is next to my bed so i use it everynight. For me this just really helps me to relax and settle down and damn does it help me to drift off so much quicker!! So i am feeling less tired the next day which is great news for me, and the scent is just perfect for me just enough lavender not too strong, i wouldn't say it helps you sleep any longer or anything like that but if your like me and struggle to get to sleep i would 100% get a sample to try to see if it works for you!

Glossier milky jelly cleanser

This was my first glossier product as i thought this was the most raved about item. This is a very simple cleanser nothing luxurious but it does the job. I use this in the morning to awaken and refresh my skin from the night, it has a very light rose scent and as the name suggest a milky jelly texture. After using this you don't feel like it's striped the skin, it's very gentle and a really good cleanser to just clean your skin.

Bath and body works hot cocoa and cream candle

Oh gosh every time i burn this i just want to eat it, it is just chocolate. This is an amazing fall candle, it is so warming smelling it in the house. I have burnt this for the whole of november and it's still not finished so i will be saving the rest for next year. I am not normally an overly sweet candle person like cupcake scents to me are disgusting but there is something about this that i just cant get enough of.

Glossier balm dot com

And now i have found my favourite lip balms ever (they have beaten fresh....sorry). There is several scents to the balm dot coms i have the orginal which is a multi use salve and also birthday cake which smells divine and has tiny particles of glitter which you cannot feel or see when there on the lips but it just gives that lovely bit of shimmer to make your lips look a bit more juicy. Other scents they do is cherry, rose, mint and coconut. And which i really like is there not a really shiny lip balm its like a semi matte. They are incredibly nourishing nothing is comparing at the moment. They are a slightly expensive lipbalm, but i reckon they are gonna last you ages as you only need the most tiny amount.

Tarte big blush book 3

Ahhh tarte, ahhh blush, you can honestly not get better blushes then tarte and i have had a few seperate ones in my time. I would say about a year ago i owned about 50 blushes (mad i know i had a big blush problem)! Now i think i have 6 separate blush pans and a couple of palettes including this one, i got this a couple of month agos and i am so in love with it, it has literally every colour your ever need, you got your nudes, peaches, pinks and corals and then in the middle a highlighter. Tarte blushes have never been ultra pigmented but i think thats what i like you cant go overboard with them they look just perfect and natural. The highlight is a little bit natural for me so i tend to put a cream highlight underneath which makes the powder pop. It's not always cheap to buy big face palettes but it is an investment and would save you money in the long run as you really do have all the colours right there.
