I thought that I had been pretty good this month (so far) and not bought any make up at all, but it seems that when I don't spend my money in Boots it goes on food instead - oopsy. However, amongst the Dominos pizza and Costa Christmas drinks, I did of course manage to buy a couple of beauty bits, one of which has made its way into this month's favourites.
It is of course another Charlotte Tilbury product, I literally cannot help myself when it comes to her collection and I end up buying something almost every payday. I went for a lipstick in the shade Nude Kate, which is a creamy neutral shade which peachy tones and a satin finish. It is super flattering and I've been wearing it for work most days; I find that for some reason it looks best when I apply it with my finger (I would say a brush but I'd be lying if I said I faff around with a lip brush when applying it at work).
I've also been wearing NARS Velvet Lip Pencil in Walkyrie, which is a dream to wear as it feels so so soft on the lips and it lasts for hours. The colour is ideal for this season, and I like to wear it with minimal eye make up for more impact.
I've gone on about this for ages now, but Maybelline The Nudes eye shadow palette really is as good as it looks. I have got so many different looks out of this palette, and the quality is as good as high end eye shadows that you would pay up to three times as much for.
Another Maybelline gem that I've been loving again lately is the 24hr Color Tattoo in On and On Bronze, which is amazing for when I'm looking for a bolder eye look. The gorgeous gold colour lasts all day without creasing and it has a metallic finish rather than any annoying glitter that would just create a tonne of fallout.
Last up, I've rediscovered my love for the Autograph Highlighter, which is looking a bit worn out now but this is just testament to how much I've used it. It is a beautiful iridescent pink which I use after any blush or bronzer to highlight my cheekbones and down my nose.
So there we go, another bunch of lovely products that I can't get enough of lately! Let me know what you are loving right now! xx
I love Charlotte Tilbury! I've debating a lipstick for a while, will have to purchase one after reading this! x

Ooh the palettes gorgeous, I've never seen that one before. I love the sleek ones but I'm looking for a nice one for my sister for Xmas! I have the maybelline colour tattoo in a gold shade and it looks really pretty with purple tones.

I'm obsessed with the Maybelline Nudes palette. It is so good compared to products around the same price point. Plus, it has all the shades that I generally look for in a palette.
