February Favourites!


So the shortest month is over, and it's March already...where has the year gone!! This month was one of new products as well as shopping my stash. I'd recommend looking through your stash every month to see what gems you can find that you've forgotten about!
Fairly late on in the month, I picked up the Beauty UK Ultimate Contour Palette. I was looking for a cream contour, and for £4.99, it's a great product! The first couple of times I used this, I applied it with the Real Techniques pointed foundation brush, this placed the product with precision but when buffed out didn't give an even finish. I swapped it out for the contour brush, taking a little bit of the product at a time and building it up for a more natural look. The formula is cream to powder so the natural look is easy to achieve!
As mentioned in my January favourites, the Makeup Revolution I Love Makeup Naked Chocolate palette was a firm favourite all the way through February too! It is back in stock, so get it quick before it goes away again!
I've been trying to be kinder to my hair this month, so I've been washing it less frequently but with better products! To keep it looking fresh between washes I've been using the Batiste Dry Shampoo - Medium & Brunette. It's the same great Batiste formula but with a hint of colour, no more ashy hair fails!
The next one is a tried and trusted favourite for me, but this was definitely proven when I ran out of it, and it sucked! It's the Sure Maximum Protection Deodorant Cream Confidence. It's the only deodorant I've tried that is still very much there after a tough day at work, love it! 
When I first picked up the Nuxe Rêve de Miel lip balm, I loved it from first use. It has become a staple in my everyday routine, and I definitely won't be leaving the house without it! I've had a problem with dry lips for a while and could never find anything that really sorted the issue, it's extinct now with this little beaut in my collection!
This month I found an amazing product in my stash that I didn't even realise I had! It was the Nuxe Masque Crème Fraîche de Beuté. Nuxe have done it again! I had some random dry, red patches crop up on my cheek and wasn't too happy about it! This mask, applied twice (and sometimes more) a week, took the issue and tamed it drastically! It's a soothing and rehydrating mask; you apply it all over the face, leave for 10 minutes and then massage what's left into the skin. I use it at night, just before bed, and in the morning my face feels much more relaxed and set for the day!
My last favourite is the top I picked up from New Look. It's by the brand Blue Vanilla, and it's not something I would normally pick up. Picked it up, tried it on, bought it. Enough said!


What were your favourite products in February? Any suggestions that could become my March favourites?!
