Some of my favourites right now

There have been a few specific products that I have been loving recently and I thought I just had to share them all on here. So I hope you enjoy this little list of some of these beauty products that I've been loving at the moment :)

First, I can't not mention my two favourite autumn lipsticks. My favourite high street lipsticks are the Rimmel Kate Moss, they are extremely pigmented and not drying which makes them even more perfect for autumn when due to the cold weather we have to all suffer from extremely dry lips. 
Here are two of my favourite shades:

Another product that I've been loving recently is this highlighting pallete from Sleek. This really is one of my favourite beauty products I own at the moment it's supper affordable as it's only around £10. It's so good for the price and all the shades are beautiful.

I've also really been liking this BarryM kohl eye pencil as it's super easy to smudge and get the shape with it that you want, it's also got really good pigmintation so if you like really dark pencil liners I highly reccomened this. 

I've actually really been loving a lot of Sleek products and I have to say I'am obsessed with this blusher from sleek. It's very easy to work with and although it looks very dark it's easy to blend and is great to create that 'rosy cheek' look for the winter. You can either blend it out to make the colour more natural and subtle or you can really go for it and yet it will still look very natural.

Finally, there's just one more product that I decided to talk to you about and it's another product from Sleek! This time it's this gorgeous nude lipstick. There's not too much to say about this I just really love this colour and the lipstick itself is really good quality and if dark lipsticks aren't your thing then this is a really great nude :)

So there you go here are a few different products I've really been enjoying at the moment and really reccomened trying them out <3

My Autumn Essentials

Although I love Autumn there are certain cons that come with this season. For example, dry hands, dry feet, we all need to moisturise more and the rain and the wind always seems to ruin our hair that we spent ages doing. So here are a few of my autumn essentials that help me get through this cold weather.

Since my lips are always dry and chapped and it's a gross and horrible feeling Vaseline is so useful during this time of the year. I prefer to use Vaseline rather than any lip balm as I feel like it really does moisturise my lips.
I use this Manuka Doctor gel whenever I get really red and dry skin as this cools it and moisturises the area.

This Ted Baker hand cream is one of my favourite things ever! It smells amazing ( I can't decribe what it smells of but it really is gorgeous) and it is incredibly moisturising. I really really really really really recommended it, you can get it from Boots for about £2 so it's not expensive and it's honestly worth a try.

Dark lipstick is a must have during the autumn and I don't think I need to explain why it just goes with all the colours of the leaves and all the autumnal coloured outfits. Here I have 'Rimmel's Kate Moss 107' and 'Rimmel Kate Moss 30' (From left to right). They are only about £5.50 and definitely worth the money!

This Aveeno cream is literally a life saver, I get very dry skin all the time so it's even worse during the Autumn/Winter time so this really helps. It keeps my skin moisturised for a really long time. I've said the word  moisturise way too many times in this post :)
Finally, probably my favourite thing in this post is tea! I love drinking tea throughout the whole year but around this time I always drink even more than I normally would (Which is a lot).
On the left I have The Twinings Salted Caramel Green Tea and oh my god this stuff is amazing, it smells delicious and it is delicious, probably my favourite tea ever. On the right I have Twining Chai Tea which is perfect for this season as it has many spices such as cinnamon which I obviously love!

London

Obviously London is a beautiful place and I haven't been to London recently however I did go back in July and since I didn't have this blog then I guess I could still share these photos on here now. London is one of my favourite places so whenever I do go I always take hundreds of pictures so here are just a few, enjoy! :) 







All these photos have been taken by me apart from the last one which I actually think is the best one. It was taken by my mum in Hyde Park and the view looks gorgeous!

What's in my bag?

 So for today's post I thought it would be quite fun to show you what;s in my bag as I myself love seeing what people have in their bags...I don't know if that's weird or not! :)

Can I just start off by saying how much I love this bag? I got it in France last year so unfortunately I can't say what shop it was in. However, I do absolutely love it! It's so spacious, it has 2 zip-up pockets on the inside as well as one open one and it also has one of those pockets for your phone. It also has a zip-up pocket at the back and the bag itself just looks gorgeous!




So....This is all that was in my bag.



Here I have my make-up bag (link to My 'make up bag post http://dashingblur.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/my-make-up-bag.html ). I also have my purse which is an old one I got from Primark, A Fudge Urban hairspray because I can't leave the house without hairspray and this one smells of coconut! I also have my Nivea deodorant and a pen. 


On the end I have my Batiste XXL volume dry shampoo, which by the way I highly recommended this is one of the only products I've tried which actually gives my hair volume and at the very end I have my hairbrush. 

So that was the big main pocket of my bag now here are a couple of things I keep in some of the small pockets.



I would also normally have:

  • My phone
  • My keys
  • A bottle of water
  • My travel-sick bands
  • Gum/mints
