October Favorites | Sarah's

Hello, wow so its really been a month since Alanah and I started this blog, its flown by and I love doing it! I'm going to show you my favorite products and things for this month, there's not to many but I thought I'd show you these little bits.


First is this Jack Wills Body Butter in the scent English Velvet I got this quite a while ago and I used to obsessed with Jack Wills and I loved this body butter, and I honestly don't know why I ever stopped using it! The smell of this body butter is unimaginable it's my favorite scent of the moment. It just smells of Autumn to me. Its quite a musky smell and slightly floraly, and I don't normally like floral scents but this is just amazing.


 The texture of this body butter is super thick and creamy. This makes it really moisturizing on your body and its very easy to spread evenly. Allowing you to only use the amount you actually need. Which in my opinion is great as you can save as much as possible.

 This product dry's on your body quickly but keeps it feeling smooth and moisturized. It then doesn't leave a sticky residue which is great as it means you don't have to stand there for ages waiting for your body to dry. 


Because I love this scent so much I bought the perfume of the same scent. So I'm all sorted, if you were to buy this now they've changed the packaging to a very boring transparent bottle with some writing on *cry*. But in the bottle is the same product. 

The packaging this came in is absolutely beautiful. It comes in a box as any perfume normally would. But the bottle itself sits in this silk lined pillow. It makes the product look like its very important and expensive. I loved the packaging so much that it sits in the packaging still on my bedside table for everyone to see.

I would highly recommend purchasing this for autumn or just go into a Jack Wills store and ask to smell this scent you wont regret it, I promise you.



I also love the mirror on the bottles lid! Can you spot me!


This next favorite is having winged eyeliner. This eyeliner is amazing its from Bourjois and has sadly been discontinued, I don't know how I will cope when this runs out! But I think use what works best for you.

I've been doing my eyeliner flicked out non-stop all Autumn. I love the look it gives and I actually love applying it in the morning (which some people would probably hate doing, aha). 


This certain one has a tiny brush so it therefore gives you excellent precision. It also dries really quickly so you don't have to worry about waiting for ages until you can curl your lashes.

If anyone knows where I can still purchase this product or one that sounds similar to it please let me know!


 I've briefly spoken about this product before but not in much depth. I heard about this product from Fleur from fleurdeforce on YouTube. She was saying how its very similar to Bioderma. I've been wanting to try Bioderma for ages but I cant find it, I dont think you can get it in the UK yet, but I have a feeling they're coming here soon.

Anyways I gave this a go and I actually really like it, it removes your makeup so easily and you don't have to rub it off your face vigorously, as this can damage your skin. Simply just pour some of the product onto a cotton pad and when removing eye makeup, hold this on your eyes for around 10-20 seconds and wipe away and your makeup should be almost gone, may have to repeat to be on the safe side as, this isn't as good as Bioderma looks but its still a great product.


The one negative about this product is the bottle. as it's square with a small hole to receive the product, I end up pouring out to much product and it tends to spill or I end up with a very wet face. So if you purchase this be sure to tip out as little product as possible as it goes a long way and remember you can always add on.


This next product has been a life savior for me these past few days. I get  really dry hands as the weather starts to get colder and sometimes they can be so bad they start to bleed. So I always need a hand cream on me in cold weather. This has been the best one I've tried and its the Soap & Glory hand food. This stuff is amazing!

Its a very creamy texture and lasts for ages. It doesn't feel greasy when you apply it, just very smooth. Also this smells incredible, It reminds me of playdoh (which I do like the smell of). For me if a product was amazing but didn't smell nice I wouldn't use it. The scent of a product is a very high factor that I take into account. Its quite a sweet scent and not very Wintery. But I need this in the Winter so I'm not going to complain. It says on the bottle; "Non-greasy hydrating hand cream with shea butter, macadamia oil and marshmallow". So go smell this next time your in Boots, I promise you wont regret it.


 Finally my top favorite of this month, has to be blogging every day. Although I've only been blogging for a month I love it, and enjoy doing it so much. Now although I've loved posting everyday me and Alanah both go to college and are studying for our A-Levels so we cant post every day every month. However we will still be posting frequently so dont worry! 


 I want to thank each one of our followers we love all 20 of you! I took a picture of me with you, hope you like it! Please keep commenting as me and Alanah will always reply.

What in my Makeup Bag

Hello, so here's what I've been keeping in my makeup bag recently. Its what I've been using recently at the moment, so I hope you like the post.


I got this makeup bag as a gift for my birthday around 2 or 3 years ago, I really like it but it it starting to get a bit dirty, I'm hoping to get a ted baker one because they look lovely, and they're waterproof with a shiny outer covering, so if you get any makeup stains on it, you can just wipe it off.
(To see the Ted Baker I'm hoping to get click: here)

 Pure Essentials | Facial Makeup Wipes
These are just for makeup emergencies, you never know when you'll need a wipe, they do come in handy more than you think!

 Real Techniques | Expert Face Brush
I use this too blend my foundation and concealer

 Bare Minerals | Foundation Brush
Although this is a foundation brush, I like to use this to apply blusher, it fits perfectly on the apples of my cheeks and picks up the perfect amount of blush.

 Club Works | Blusher
I used to use this a lot a while ago, and rediscovered it. Its a lovely deep pink colour that perfect for Autumn/Winter

 Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation | Ivory Biege
I got this foundation sample the other day, a review of it will be up tomorrow.

Clinique | Powder Brush
I use this to apply my powder, I like it as it doesn't pick up a lot of product, so when you apply the powder your still left with dewy looking skin.

















 No7 Eyeshadow | Truffle
I wore this eyeshadow the other day, see my FOTD post wearing it here




Avon Palette | Purple Haze
I've been loving this palette recently, I've been trying to be a bit more daring with colored eyeshadow, and I'm loving encourporating purple.
I created a look using this palette in a post, see it here

Collection Concealer | Medium (3) 
I've spoken about this concealer a lot, and haven't ever found one as good, you can purchase it in Superdrug or Boots for about £4

 Flutter Lip Gloss | Pink
I love these lip glosses again they were a gift, and they're not sticky at all just add a touch of gloss and look stunning on the lips.

 Bourjois | Liquid Liner
I love this product so much but I think its been discontinued as I cant find it anywhere, I'm also running out, please comment which liner you think I should buy next and if I should buy gel or liquid. I did a post on showing you how I create a winged eyeliner, see it here.

 Collecting pressed power | Tender Touch 02
I love this powder and I purchased it with Alanah (who has the same) it controls the oils on my skin, without making me look overly matte, it was also very cheap at £1.99 in Superdrug.

 Benefits | They're Real Mascara
This is the best mascara I've ever tried I naturally have quite long eye lashes naturally, but this mascara just gives the lots of volume, and doesn't clump my lashes together.

 Flutter Lip Gloss | Nude
Same as the pink shade I again love this product, its nice to wear over a nude lipstick and has the perfect consistency.

 Real Techniques | Shading Brush
I bought this product not too long ago and its great for putting eyeshadow onto your lids. I've also found this to be quite good at blending, so its almost a 2 in 1 product, obviously a blending brush would be better, but maybe if you don't want to fork out for different brushes or just getting started on your makeup collection, this would be a great product to purchase.

 ME | Bronzing Shimmer
I like this product more in the summer, or for party's it just add's a touch of shimmer to your skin, not the perfect product for autumn and winter but I love this because what girl doesn't love shimmer.

 Max Factor Kohl Pencil | 020 Black
I don't normally wear black eye liner on my water line, as it makes my eyes look very small, however I quite like to wear this on my lower or upper lash line, as it makes my eyelashes appear thicker and fuller. I don't wear this often but I keep it in my makeup bag rather than my draw as its small, and I think I may loose it if I place it anywhere other than my bag.

















 No7 | Antique Rose

I've again recently rediscovered this product and it looks lovely on the lid, the great thing about this is its not overly vibrant so you could get away with this for school if your not aloud to wear much makeup.

Hope you like this post, sorry it was long 
Comment your staple makeup product in your Makeup bag at the moment
