It's Favourite time again! And I'm a little late to the party, but a few technical issues have got in the way. All is sorted now though, and I'll be moving to a Wordpress Blog soon. So keep your eyes peeled!

So here's what I've been loving this month.

First is my Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation. I love the coverage of this, and it has a beautiful finish. For a more indepth review, see here.

Another refound fave, is the Rimmel Lash Accelerator Endless Mascara. This has been in my collection for a while now, and i find myself reaching for it quite often. I love the wand, and it gives me a great everyday lash look.

This was an emergency purchase as my current liner had dried.Its the Seventeen Make Your Mark Liner. But I was really impressed with this little bargain. It is a felt tip style, so I find it really easy to use, and it goes on black. (Alot I find need two layers to look dark enough). One problem is it has a little trouble going over eyeshadow, but for the price we'll let it off.

Now this is not strictly a beauty product, more of a hygiene, but it has changed my life! It was on offer for £1.99 when I bought it, which for the size of the bottle is INSANE! I've been teaming this Colgate Max White One Mouthwash with the Colgate Max White One Toothpaste, and in 2 weeks, my teeth are completely different! And this mouthwash doesn't have a strong taste. A total 5 stars from me.

This is a face brush from a set I bought from Depop. It came in a set of 10 face brushes, for £20. I was a little scared about getting some brushes from the internet. But the quality is amazing, and the bristles are so soft. They do a perfect job, and this one reminds me alot of Real Techniques Expert Face Brush.

Last of all how could I miss my favourite thing about Easter. Cadburys Creme Eggs. Unfortunately, they stop selling them at the beginning of April, which is the worst thing ever. But I always stock up, because, well they;re my fave!

This month has been a whirlwind again, and my blogging has suffered unfortunately. But I have a few ideas all lined up, so keep your eyes peeled for those!

Love Hayley xx

I recently decided to treat myself to a little shopping spree at my local MAC counter, and thought id share the pieces that i picked up.

I had meant to grab a pro longwear concealer too, but totally forgot! I was so annoyed with myself when i got home. Just means ill have too visit again soon, oops!

But anyway here's the bits and bobs I got.

First up is the Perfect Topping skin finish. It's a gorgeous blend of different shades of highlighter to create the 'Perfect Topping' (haha). The blend of colours also give a CC effect, so help to cover any blemishes or uneven complexion. This is only a gentle highlighter, so it doesn't give an overpowering glow. Just a hint on the cheekbones for a healthy look.

A staple in any beauty bloggers collection is an amazing red lipstick. And i think I've found my favourite. after hearing great things i decided to try the Ruby Woo lipstick. Its a true red colour with blue undertones (great for helping to whitening the appearance of your teeth). Although the finish is a Retro Matte, it doesn't dry out the lips like other Matte finish lipsticks do. It is incredibly long lasting too, as i only had to reapply once though the night, although it does have a habit of transferring so be careful!

I've committed a beauty blogging sin here, as i forgot to take photos before i used it Oops!

I picked up a Painterly paint pot, which I've had my eye on since i saw it in one of VelvetGhosts videos on YouTube. Its a creamy eye colour which goes on smooth and dries on your lids. It doesn't crease or dry out and creates a great eye shadow base. I love this colour because its perfect on its own for a nude look, or as a base for smokey eyes. It also conceals any blemishes or complexion imperfections.

The last thing i got is just more of a housekeeping item, not as exciting as new makeup! Its the Mac brush cleanser. I love this for cleaning my brushes between uses, It cleans, disinfects and lengthens the life of your brushes. It also helps to reduce the drying time needed. Spot cleaning your brushes between uses also helps to prevent breakouts as the bacteria is cleaned off. Although i still deep clean my brushes every 2-3 weeks depending on how much heavy makeup ive been using.

Everything is available on the MAC website. Here.

What are your favourite mac products? So i can start up a new wishlist!

Love Hayleyloui. xx
