Hi lovelies, I hope you are having a fantastic week so far! Today I'm sharing what I've been loving in May (and the beginning of June). I've been doing a bit of shopping recently (woops!), so I've been trying out a tonne of new products, which means I can share what I've been enjoying! Let me know in the comments what you've been loving recently, I'd love to hear from you!

Pure Fiji Body Butter in mango infusion

I recently hauled some Pure Fiji products, and have been loving all of them, especially this body butter. Its quite thick and buttery, and it smells literally like a mango. I love using this after my shower on my legs, and afterwards they feel so soft.

Pure Fiji Hydrating Body Mist in mango infusion

I have officially joined the body mist fan club - this is amazing, and I especially love using this with my mango body butter.

Elf Eyebrow Kit in medium

I mostly use the gel to fill in my brows, and then I use a little bit of the powder just to set them. It's super quick and easy, dirt cheap, and I promise you that you won't look like you've "drawn" your eye brows on with a vivid!

Elf clear Brow Gel

I use this after filling in my brows - yes it does look a little yucky, but honestly this stuff works wonders on my brows.

Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in transparent

(Sorry for the rubbish photo). This is my second one of these powders (as my mum accidentally dropped the first on the ground and it cracked!), and I honestly noticed a difference in how matte I looked when I used this again (compared to my other powders). The packaging isn't that cute, but the powder makes up for it and you don't require too many touch ups through the day.

Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipstick in nude delight

I feel in love with this lipstick so much that I wrote a whole blog post on it! It's creamy, long lasting, and a perfect color, I don't think I will ever be able to live without it again.

Maybelline Color Tatoo in barely branded

I recently bought another color tattoo, as my bronze one I use all the time. I have been loving this shade, and I wear it on days where I don't do a full eye shadow look (which is often). 

Rimmel Wake Me Up Concealer

I love how awake and well rested I look when I am wearing this concealer. It's a super light consistency so it doesn't cake under the eyes, plus the packaging is cute as well!

 Make sure to leave any blog requests in the comments, and if you have a blog of your own  please let me know and I'll check it out! Love you all!

February Favourites

February Favourites

Follow me on Bloglovin: http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/11555387/aliceolivia

Hi all! I hope you have had a fantastic February! February was a busy month for me, but I'm loving the change of weather that March is bringing. 

Like always, I am going to share my monthly favourites with you. One or two were in January Favorites, but most are new discoveries that I'm so exited to share with you all! 

Neutrogena Oil-Free Makeup Remover

This makeup remover I have re-purchased many times, as it removes my makeup efficiently, and leaves no oily residue (as it doesn't have any oil in it!). 

A Scent by Issey Miyake

I was truly as upset as you could be towards a perfume when I  spritzed the last spritz, it is truly one of my favorite perfumes. I am not even going to attempt to describe any scents, but the next time you pop into your pharmacy or department store, give it a sniff as it is incredible (and the packaging is super chic as well!).

Body Shop Moringa Milk

I have used this stuff daily for the past month, as it smells absolutely incredible! It is a lot lighter than a regular moisturizer, making it a nice alternative for the warmer months. I am trying to use it up before the colder weather kicks in, as I feel it is more of a summery scent, but it lasts so long! It is a really floral scent, so if you love to smell like a flower, this is for you.

Maybelline Fit Me Concealer

This has become my new favorite concealer! It is creamy, pigmented, and doesn't crease or look cakey on the skin. I use the light shade, and like to apply to under my eyes, and on any blemishes, redness, or hyperpigmentation that I may have. 

The Falsies Volume Express by Maybelline

I  know that this was in last month's favorites, but this truly is my life saving beauty product. The volume and length you can get with this mascara is incredible, yet it doesn't give you clumpy 'spider eyes', which personally, I can't stand. 

Elf Eyebrow Kit

This is a new discovery for me, as I  wanted to try a gel/powder for my brows instead of my usual pencil, as its meant to look a lot softer. I absolutely love this duo; I use the gel more often than the powder (I  find the powder is slightly too light and a tad to orange), and have really been enjoying more of a natural, soft brow look.

Clinique Eye Shadow Trio

This trio, in particular the light shade (called french vanilla), has been an absolute life saver for me this month. I  tend to get red, slightly veiny eye lids, so this has been perfect to sweep over the lids to even out my skin tone. I also really enjoy smudging the darker color on my outer lash lie for a smokey effect.

NYX Butter Gloss (in tiramisu)

I have found my new favorite lip gloss. I love all three of my butter glosses, however this shade in particular is the perfect nude. It's creamy and not sticky at all, the pigmentation is fantastic yet buildable, and the color is just beautiful. 

That is all of my favorites for the month! I hope you enjoyed this post, and remember to leave any future blog requests down below in the comments. If you haven't followed me on Bloglovin yet, here is the link: http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/11555387/aliceolivia

Beauty Unboxing Haul (NYX, WetnWild, Elf, Bourjois)

Beauty Unboxing Haul - NYX, Wetnwild, Elf, Bourjois

Follow me on Bloglovin: http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/11555387/aliceolivia

Hi all! I hope you are having a fantastic day. Recently I have given in to online shopping and bought some things... oh well. I purchased off asos and the shipping arrived very quickly, which was fantastic. I also bought of a website called Beauty Joint. 

I had never tried any of these brands below before, so I was super exited to try all of these products out!

From asos I purchased the Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder. I was so exited to buy this, as I have struggled to find a non orange bronzing powder for a very long time. The packaging is like a cardboard book, and inside the product is shaped like 4 squares of chocolate. The consistency is very smooth and the product is reasonably matte. 

From Beauty Joint, I purchased 3 of the NYX butter glosses, as I heard they were creamy, pigmented and non sticky. I was intrigued to see if it would live up to my expectation, and I can now say that they are one of my favorite lip gloss formulas I've ever tried. 

The colors are absolutely beautiful, and the texture is extremely creamy and smooth. The color pay off is fantastic as well, and they are easy to layer or sheer out. 

Eclair (a beautiful pastel pink, with purple undertones), tiramisu (a beige nude - my favorite color out of the three), peaches and cream (a bright, coral pink color).

Swatches left to right: eclair, tiramisu, peaches and cream

I also bought 2 Wetnwild lip sticks, mainly because they were extremely affordable and there where some dupes to some mac lipsticks. Unfortunately I was not as impressed with these as I was with the butter glosses, mainly because the packaging was very cheap and the lipstick could break in half. In saying that however, the product is quite matte, and the opacity is fantastic although they are slightly drying.

Pinkerbell, 24 carrot gold (a dupe for Macs morange)

I love wearing pinkerbell under the NYX peaches and cream gloss, and the 24 carrot gold is really beautiful when you blend it out with an orange balm (I used Clinique chubby stick in oversized orange).

The last thing I bought was the elf Eyebrow Kit in medium. I had heard many positive things about this product, and I absolutely love it. One side is a darker, brown gel, the other more of a lighter beige brown powder.

There you go! I hope you enjoyed this blog post, If you want to see more hauls let me know. Make sure to comment down below what you think I should try out next, and leave any blog post requests down below. Also if you have a blog of your own, let me know and I will check you out! Love you all!
