Yes yes, I know I'm stating the obvious.
Hope you've all had a great end of 2014 and had heaps of fun celebrating NYE!
Anyway, the new year calls for a roundup of my favourite stuff from 2014! Why?
Errr, mainly because almost every YouTuber/Blogger's doing it. I might as well hop on the bandwagon and share with you guys what I've been reaching for without fail throughout the year!
I'm pretty pleased with the end result. :D
Be prepared to see a whole lot of collages on my blog soon. Heh.
Okay let's go!
- Benefit Boi-ing Concealer in 01
I initially got this in the lightest shade by mistake, but soon fell in love with it as an undereye concealer/highlighter. This doesn't crease on me at all, and is so pigmented. I like slapping some of this on after pulling an all-nighter just to look a bit less zombielike. Only downside is the unhygienic packaging. - Arkadia Chai Tea in Spice
I stock up on these like mad whenever I go to Woolsworth. Ask any of my housemates. Lololol. I don't do coffee, so this is my go-to source of caffeine. I drink so many cups of this awesomeness per day, it's crazy. - Rimmel Apocalips in Big Bang
Cheap - got it whilst Priceline was having 40% off all Rimmel items! Also, it's hella red. Perfect for clubbing. This shade of perfection requires lipliner to prevent it from feathering though, fyi. - Toni and Guy Sea Salt Spray
I'll be honest, I saw Zoella raving about this in one of her YouTube videos and just had to get it.
Verdict? I LOVES IT.
This gives my hair so much texture, making it super easy to style (by style, I mean casually twisting hair around my fingers while running to catch the tram). I guess this works on me coz my hair is naturally wavy anyway. I would call this.. my curl enhancer? Plus, it smells great! - Klorane Dry Shampoo with Oat Milk
Dunno what's the diff between this and the original version sans oat milk; dry shampoo is dry shampoo after all, but Klorane smells way better than Batiste. Trust me. I go through dry shampoo REAL fast. - Shu Uemura Hard 9 Brow Pencil
Ahh, my holy grail. Been using this since I was 14 - that's 6 years! God knows the number of times I've repurchased this baby. Go get this! - Revlon Photoready Primer in 001
Purchased this after fellow friend CarmenKhor recommended it to me. Cheap and lasts a long time. Also keeps me matte throughout the day! I always use this if I'm going somewhere. Doesn't matter if it's just uni, I still use at least half a pump! - Clinique Take the Day Off Cleansing Balm
Read about it from Caroline Hirons (aka imba skincare guru). This, my friend, is magic. It's a really basic solid balm that melts into this oil upon contact with body heat. So luxurious and removes my stubborn waterproof mascara every single time. Flawless. - Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation in 102 Light Nude
Umm. Again, saw this in one of Zoella's monthly favourites. Is it bad that I'm such a sucker? *hides* This is the epitome of PR done right.
This foundation has buildable coverage, smells great, and has a Zoella stamp of approval, so why not?! - Majolica Majorca Lash Enamel Glamour Volume On
HG status mascara for the past 2-3 years. I must say, this is a wee bit on the pricier side for a drugstore brand, but it works and I love it and definitely wouldn't mind repurchasing this over and over again! Oh, it's also very very waterproof. Refer to #8.
I will be heartbroken should they ever discontinue Glamour Volume On. For realz.
I think Asian mascaras are on point. Western ones just don't make the cut. - Dolce by Dolce and Gabbana
Got sent this, but I still love it more than the ones I purchased myself. What sorcery. Read the full review here.
I'm not the only one who thinks Dolce smells great. I get guys complimenting me whenever I wear this, so it should be a sign that you should get yourself a bottle *wink wink*
That's all for my 2014 favourites, woohoo!
Thanks for reading and I'll see you guys soon.
