Good afternoon lovelies! I already have my December favorites. Maybe it's too soon because I don't use to have them until the last days of the month, but I'm quite sure that I already have the winners of this month.

Okay so starting with the first item I got this month, it's the Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream. It says it's for the skin in general but I only use it in my hands because it's a little bit oily and I have oily skin so I don't think it's going to be good for my skin. But the thing is that it works really really good in my hands. It feels a bit oily when you apply it but when my skin absorb it my hands look so hydrated and soft...you can't even imagine.

The next thing I got is that lovely doggy case which I love. I've got an Iphone 5 recently so I had to pick one case for it and I wanted the Marc Jacobs one but it was kinda expensive so I managed to find this one which is cheaper and the quality is very good.

As I'm a lover of fragrances I don't like to use always the same one so this month I decided to give this one a try. It's the Zara Bright Rose Eau de Toilette and it smells so freaking good! It has Cinnamon, Cumin and Grapefruit on the top, Lily of the Valley and Jasmine on the heart and Cedar, Vetiver, Patchouli and Musky on the base. Just perfect.

Moving on with the three last items, I got them all in my anniversary trip and they are a really good purchases actually. The first of them I got was the Starbucks thermo which is amazing because it's christmassy and it keeps the warm of the drink inside for more than 2 hours. And also they give you a discount everytime you fill it! (available in all starbucks stores)

About the nail polishes, I bought them on H&M and they are so so cute and look so good on my nails...I specially recommend the glittery one. It looks kind of classy.
And finally, last but not least my Topshop sweat which I already show you in THIS POST, so go and take a look if you wanna know more about it!

Well that's all for today guys, it would be amazing if you could comment below your december favorites :) it would be a nice feedback actually.

BEAUTY | MY MAKE-UP ROUTINE: MOST USED PRODUCTS

beauty

Hello everyone! So today this post will be all about my make-up routine most used products.

What I usually do first is moisturise my skin. This step is very important for prevent your skin of breaking up and also because if you wanna look flawless with your make-up on, your skin must be hydrated. The next thing I do is applying my Rimmel London Lasting Finish 25 hour foundation in the shade soft beige. This thing guys is perfect, I'm in love with it, it makes my skin look so soft and covers any blemishes I may have. Oh and it stays like forever, so the 25 hour thing is totally true.

Moving on to powder, my all time fave is the Rimmel London Stay Matte pressed powder, and all I do is applying it gently through all my face to prevent oily skin, shine and the appearance of pores. And now is bronzing time! The one I use is dark brown with a little of glitter, but I can't remember where I bought it actually. Okay, after bronzing and contouring I apply the NYC Color Wheel Mosaic Face Powder which is absolutely lovely and make my cheeks look rosy and cute. When I'm done with bronzer and blush is very important blend them out to hide any harsh lines.

Now it's time for the eyebrows. I can't go out without doing them, like seriously, even in lazy days I can't go out with my natural eyebrows. I think that eyebrows are actually one of the most important parts of our face and depending the way you do them, you'll look different. So take care of them and be carefull of how you fill them because you can look perfect or horrendous.

The product I use for filling my eyebrows is the Essence eyebrow pencil in the shade blonde. I love this pencil so much because they look natural even when they are not and stays like forever.

When my eyebrows are done (I think eyebrow is my most used word in this post tho), I move into my eyes. First of all, I prime them with my Kiko Pearly Eye Base Primer. This is a brightening base for eyeshadow and it prolongs its hold and enhances its colour. I've been using it for almost a year now and I'm not getting any other product because this one is perfect for me.

Next step is applying the eyeshadow. I've been using the Nude Eyes Palette from H&M lately and it's better than I expected. What I usually do is using the number 1 to highlight my brow bones, the number 2 as a base on the lid and the number 3 in my outter corners. Finally I blend it all and it's done.

As a final touch I apply mascara on my upper and lower lash line using the NYC Volumizing Mascara Show Time and the Essence Extra Longlasting Eyeliner Pen.

And at last but not least, lipstick! Which is one of my favorite parts of my make-up routine. I'm recently really into essence lipsticks because they are very pigmented and not expensive at all. The shades I use the most are Coral Calling, On the catwalk and Natural Beauty.

And I'm ready to go!
