February was without a doubt the quickest month I've ever had! Despite writing thirteen blog posts I seriously have no idea where all that time went! I'm not complaining though as I can't wait for these cold days to go away and Spring to finally be here! I found quite a few new favourites last month so instead of rambling on, let me show you what they were! 
february favourites 2018
I didn't wear a lot of makeup throughout February as most of the time I was just at home but on the days where I needed a bit of coverage, this was the primer I would reach for. It's formulated with Coconut Water and Probiotics and it leaves my skin feeling super soft and hydrated. It spreads over the skin beautifully and creates the perfect base for foundation. It's also silicone-free which is another reason why I love it! 

I bought this last year and completely forgot about it but I've recently been using it as a blush topper and I love it! It's a peachy-pink highlighter that gives a gorgeous healthy glow without being overly pigmented or shimmery. It's also really buildable so you can apply a light amount or really layer it up. 

Urban Decay X Gwen Stefani 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil | Ex-Girlfriend
Recently I've really been enjoying using a nude liner with a bit of lip balm on top as it's super quick to apply and easy to touch up throughout the day. Unfortunately, this shade isn't available anymore but the Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk and Gosh Velvet Lip Liner in Nougat Crisp are very similar. 

American English Seaberry Dry Oil*
My hair has been a bit drier than normal lately so I've been using this dry oil when my hair is damp or once my hair is styled to add shine, repair damage and eliminate frizz. It's really lightweight and easy to spread through the hair and it smells incredible! It's a must-have for everyone!

I've been using this serum quite a lot recently and it's really helped clear up a lot of my congestion and blemishes. Sometimes exfoliating treatments can leave my skin red or sensitive but this never does! 

Sukin Cream Cleanser 
I mentioned this product in a recent haul and after testing it out for a week I can safely say that this is my new favourite affordable cleanser. It has a gorgeous creamy texture that spreads really well and it removes all of my makeup and cleans the skin without leaving it feeling dry or tight. It has a very similar smell and consistency to the Antipodes Aura Manuka Honey Mask so if you like that you'll absolutely love this! 

DHC Lip Cream
This is a super simple product but it has been doing wonders for my dry, flaky lips. I just apply it whenever my lips are feeling dry and uncomfortable and it helps keep them soft and moisturised all throughout the day. It's super handy for travel too!

The Body Shop Oils Of Life Intensely Revitalising Facial Oil
The weather is horrendous at the moment and all of the snow and wind has really started to take a toll on my skin so I've been using this facial oil 3-4 times a week and I can't believe what a difference it's made! It smells amazing and it leaves my skin feeling really hydrated and plump and a lot less irritated which is amazing! 

Feather & Down Sweet Dreams All Purpose Sleep Balm
Somewhere in the last 6/7 months, I've become a full-on night owl and whilst I don't mind as I manage to get a lot of work done, falling asleep is no easy task and most nights I just end up tossing and turning. I picked this up on a whim but it actually turned out to be one of the best purchases I've ever made! It's a little pot of aromatherapy goodness and whenever I apply it to my wrists and chest I instantly feel relaxed and manage to fall asleep easier. I can't recommend it enough! 

Have you tried any of these products recently?
