February Favourites!

March already?? Where on earth did February go? I blinked and it was over....

I guess that means its time for my February Favourites!! Yay....
This month, I have lots of cool things to share with you that I have been loving throughout February and probably will continue to use all of these products again and again....








Firstly I will start with Bath products:





1. Bourjois Refresh me! Hydra-Fresh Shower Gel. An Aquatic fragrance of Blue Lagoon flowers which gives moisturised and revitalised skin.  I like this brand of make-up but am surprised to find shower gel also! We don't get these particular shower gels in the UK so it's nice to have something different here in Dubai. It smells fresh and the smell is quite strong, lasting for a while after showering.  Its paraben free and is also very inexpensive! The packaging is so cute with pretty colours and a lovely shape with a cute golden ball on top of the lid making it vert easy to open.


2. A Lush favourite of mine is the Satsuma Bath Bomb. I absolutely love this product as it smells yummy and wondrous. Its fresh citrus juice and Sicilian mandarin oil make my skin feel so soft and supple. The whole bathroom smells of Satsumas for days afterwards! Its a Vegan product also. Wrapped in a cotton scarf its the perfect gift. I believe in the UK this was exclusive to the Oxford Street store and I did have trouble finding it here in Dubai as it wasn't on display but the store assistant managed to grab me a piece from the stock room so I was very happy as I heard lovely reviews on it from UK vloggers.


Secondly, I have a few hair care products:



1. I've never used Bumble and Bumble Hair products before and was given some travel sized bottles to try and I honestly love this brand - the Hairdesser's Invisible Oil shampoo and conditioner is really lovely and leaves my hair so smooth and smelling just gorgeous! I will definitely be purchasing the full sized bottles. The conditioner contains 6 featherlight oils which help soften, silken, tame, de-frizz, detangle and protect the hair! This range is perfect for dry hair.



2. Sachajuan Protective Hair Perfume. Now this is a product that normally I would never buy as I honestly feel maybe its a waste of money but OH. MY. GOODNESS. it is absolutely amazing - the smell is just divine! I am literally addicted to this stuff!! It smells better than any actual perfume I own!! I use it sparingly as its a little expensive but its totally worth every dirham! I love it!!


Next up is my make-up favourites:



1. I love Rimmel for my everyday foundation. I've been using Wake me up anti-fatigue foundation which is skin brightening with Vitamin C and it also contains SPF 15 which is very important for me living in the sun - we need a good face protection everyday. It gives full coverage with a dewy finish and the texture it quite light so its perfect for everyday foundation. The shade I am using is 200 Soft Beige. A little of this product goes a long way.


2. I also tried Rimmel's Match Perfection 2-in-1 skintone adapting concealer and highlighter in the shade 030 Classic Beige.  I use this under my eyes and around my nose and it does what it says on the packaging. Its a good combination with my foundation and I particularly like that it has a brush applicator which makes it easy to apply and then I just pat is around my eyes and nose using my finger.


3. Victoria Beckham Lipstick in the colour 01 Brazilian Nude is the perfect everyday nude lipstick. It has a nice silky finish to it which I love and is just very easy wearing to the office and during the weekend. It's been my go to lipstick during the month of February.



4. Madame La La Bronzing Ball - I am absolutely loving this product! It was inspired by Young Hollywood's rising starlets and it's basically a 180degree dome shaped cream bronzer ball that can be used to bronze, contour and highlight the face. No make-up brushes are needed and it just glides on very easily. It can be used on cheeks, lips, eyes and all the places where the sun would usually hit. You can certainly achieve an effortless LA glow in seconds, as it says on the packaging! 


And finally Skincare:





1. Last but not least is the Charlotte Tilbury Instant Turnaround Magic Cream. I have been using this all throughout February and its the first product I have used of Charlotte Tilbury and I am quite impressed. The cream makes my skin feel instantly smoother and my make-up applies much more easily. It smells really lovely also. I will definitely be purchasing this again.

So thats a wrap for my February Favourites! 




I hope you have enjoyed reading this post and checking out the products I've been loving.
Bye for now!
