December and January Favourites

Sorry I've been very slack on this blog of late and as a result my Favourites and Empties posts are very behind. As a result I'm going to combine some of the months together, and today I will share my December and January Favourites.

My December favourites are; Lush's Popcorn Lip Scrub, Etude House's My Castle hand cream and Tini Beauty's Eyetini eyeshadow.

Lush's Popcorn Lip Scrub $9.95 AUD
Ever since I first receive this lip scrub I've been loving  this and using it regularly. It is mainly made out of sugar and you scrub it on our lips, and then wash or lick it off (tastes delicious by the way). My lips feel nice and it conditions them so they will make a good base for wearing lipstick.

Etude House's My Castle hand cream $6 USD
I mainly  like this product because of the cute packaging which looks like a castle. For some reason I assumed that this hand cream was not going to be that great because of how cute it looked, but I have to admit it is a decent hand cream. 

Tini Beauty Eyetini Eye Cordial Eyeshadow + Base  $23 AUD
I wore this eyeshadow a fair bit during December and January, but now I am over it (in saying that I am not much of an eyeshadow wearer). I thought it was easy to apply with the wand and was long lasting.

 
Now for my January favourites: Holika Holika's Lemon Cupcake lip balm, Tony Moly Red Apple Tox Honey Cream and Shanghai Suzy's Miss Olivia Apricot lipstick.

Holika Holika Dessert Time Lip Balm 06 Lemon Cupcake $6 USD
This another item with super cute packaging, it looks just like a cupcake. I thought the lip balm was good and gave a slight pink tinge.

Tony Moly Red Apple Tox Honey Cream 80ml $12 USD
You are probably starting to notice that I like cute packaging, and I have to confess I enjoy displaying this cream which looks just like an apple. This is a lovey rich cream that I have mainly been using as a night cream, and smell like honey which I find very appealing. The only thing that I dislike is that the cream is very runny, which combined with the screw on top meant that the product tended to spill out when it was full.

Shanghai Suzy's Miss Olivia Apricot lipstick $12.95 AUD
I'm a huge fan of Shanghai Suzy lipsticks and recently they are the only brand of lipsticks I have been buying. They are an Australian brand, and  only cost $12.95 which I think is a bargain price for quality lipstick. The shade Miss Olivia is my everyday lipstick at the moment, it did however take me a little while to warm up to using. As much as I love wearing red lippy, for outings such as shopping or preschool pick up it is too bold. On the other hand Miss Olivia apricot is subtle and a great warm shade to wear during summer.
