January Favourites

It's that time again!

As January is (obviously) the month after Christmas, I've had the chance to try out a LOT of products, so this is going to be a rather large favourites post - you have been warned! :)
So let's hop right in shall we? :)

Clarins Everlasting Foundation
This is a newbie to my favourites because I'd been using my MAC Studio Fix for ages, but I wanted to try something new, I'd tried other Clarins foundations before but I loved the sound of this as it's supposed to last 15 hours and it really does! It's faded a little by the end of the day like most foundations, but I definitely think it lasts longer than most!

Blink + Go Long Lasting Black Mascara
I got this in my last glossy box and I'm actually really impressed with it, it thickens and lengthens the lashes, although it's VERY hard to get off haha!

Topshop Coy Lip Stick
This is a stunning light coral coloured lip pencil, it's matte but quite creamy, very long lasting and lovely!

The Bodyshop Cocoa Butter Body Butter
This is probably my favourite of all the body shop body butters, I think it's the most moisturising, very very good for the winter months!

Bath and Bodyworks Vanilla Bean Noel Fragrance Mist
I received this in a swap with the lovely Ariel from http://www.chiclookxo.com/ and I love it so much! I use it not only as a body spray, but also to spray around my room as a room spray to make it smell yummy!

Aquolina Pink Sugar Perfume
I did a full review of this perfume which you can check out here; http://www.thebeautycorner.co.uk/2012/01/aquolina-pink-sugar-review.html
Very sweet and girly, love it!

John Frieda Go Blonder Shampoo
I love this shampoo, I'm not sure how much it actually lightens my hair, but it feels super clean and brightens my blonde!

Pro:Voke Touch Of Silver Twice Weekly Toning Shampoo
Love this! Life saver for brassy blondes! Full review here: http://www.thebeautycorner.co.uk/2012/01/calling-all-blondes.html

Andrew Barton The Ultimate Blonde Heat Protection Styling Creme
This is amazing, it makes my hair feel so soft and silky and protects it from the heat SO well! I got this in a set from a friend at christmas and have used it all through january, I got a mini one but definitely want to purchase the full size!

VO5 Miracle Concentrate, Elixir with Argan Oil
I'm obsessed with hair oils and I particularly like this one, I've been using it all month, I recommend hair oils to everyone as they literally saved my hair! I love trying new ones so this is one of many I've tried, I'll probably do a full post on them soon!

Tangle Teezer
I got this as a Christmas present and I have definitely noticed a difference in the condition of my hair, it doesn't come out nearly as much as it used to when I brush it now! This brush glides through so easily, it's amazing! They're not exactly cheap, but well worth the money!

Randoms:

Robbie Williams, Angels
An oldie, but me and Darren (I'll embarrass him saying this,) danced to this on new years after midnight and it really bought in the new year in the best way! :)
New Girl on Channel 4
This show is so funny, definitely a favourite this month!

What have you been loving for January? Let me know!

much love,
