My 5 Beauty Picks | January 2018

January is my favourite month for trying out new makeup, so here's a peek at some of the new beauty products I've been using this month!

I've collected a considerable amount of makeup since moving to Dubai (Gold Sephora card in wallet) - I love heading over to Sephora or Tryano and trying out new products on the market and below are the gorgeous top finds that I've been coveting this month.


SNEAK PEEK AT MY FAVOURITES THIS MONTH!

+ Slay All Day - Green Tea & Ginger Setting Spray : 100 AED
This is a perfect setting spray and let me tell I have tried a lot over the years! Living in a hot climate as I do, my skin needs hydrating, and I find this setting spray ideal for keeping my skin healthy and awakened for my morning makeup application.

I like to spritz a little of this beautifully scented, oil-controlling mist just before my makeup application and as the finale, to lock in my makeup all day!  The formula is lightweight and absorbs quickly, and the smells of the Green tea and ginger is fantastic. I find it brightens and energises my skin and I highly recommend this as a beauty essential.  I'll be definitely picking up the cucumber spray next and its reasonable priced so I will be stocking up.

I'm an advocate of the entire Marc Jacobs beauty range, and this sleek compact is no exception. It contains seven really pretty neutral shades, ranging from champagne, satin, silk and velvet and the warm but delicate hues, look particularly flattering on the sun-kissed skin.

I adore this palette, and once you have tried this, all other eyeshadow palettes will fail in comparison. The application is easy, no fallout and the tones are vibrant and long-lasting. If you haven't already tried, you must go out and pick this palette up! 

The coconut range is brilliant, even down to the eyeshadow primer in this collection - Check out my Marc Jacobs coconut range review here to hear me rave some more about this collection.

This coconut primer is an excellent invisible primer which nourishes and delivers a smooth even canvas for makeup application and feels more like skincare but still maximises the longevity of my makeup. My top tip is to apply a little to the lips to provide a smooth canvas for your lipstick, and I have been finding that this makes my lipstick last a lot longer. 

If you haven't already, please Check out my Jeffree Starr review here This stunning highlighter in giant fuschia pink compact is brilliant, and once I picked up Peach Goddess, I knew I had to get my hands on the Ice-Cold shade to add to my growing collection.
Another gorgeous shade, which delivers an incredible high-beam (lifting me to the highlighter heavens above!) I like to dab on with a beauty brush just over the cupid's bow and cheekbones for a subtle daytime glow.
When the sun goes down, there no stopping me and I am a full on a wet application of the ICE COLD Skin Frost which would make Jeffree himself, pretty proud! 

 + Jefree Starr - Doll Parts : $18 / 110 AED 
The formulas of these matte lipsticks from Jeffree Starr range are superb, I already picked up few shades which can be seen over at my Jeffree haul post 

I really liked the look of Doll Parts a pretty pink shade, which was out of stock at the time, once back in stock, I grabbed it and glad I did.  This tone is a stunning bright pink shade which applies so smoothly, I like to mix it up a bit and use this shade first and apply a nude over the top, which creates my own subtle pink nude or I go full out Courtney Love circa 1990 and use straight up!
