May Favourites

I can't believe it's almost June! Here's a rundown of the things I've really enjoyed using during May.
Charlotte Tilbury Penelope Pink

Don't let the name of this lipstick fool you, it isn't very pink at all. It's a beautiful almost brownish nude in a creamy satin formula. It can look slightly more pink when paired with Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk Lip Cheat, or more brown with Mac Stripdown lip liner. I love both combinations. The formula of this lipstick genuinely makes my lips look smoother and fuller, more so than any other that I've tried. I'm dying to try more of Charlotte's lipstick range. 
L'Oreal Nude Magique Cushion Foundation

I won't go on about this one for too long, I have a full review here. It's SUPER blendable, naturally glowy and lasts well. You should definitely try it. I've used this almost every single day since I got it.
Illamasqua OMG Beyond Powder 

The same goes for the beautiful Illamasqua Beyond Powder in the shade OMG. It's absolutely dreamy, and I seem to love it more each time I use it. Full review here.
Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade

I rediscovered this product this month, and I've used nothing else since. I use a small stiff brush to create hair strokes in any sparse areas and to define the over all shape. Nothing lasts like Dipbrow, so it's perfect for warmer weather. 

Duo Brush On Lash Glue

Finally! If you've ever had Duo Lash Glue explode all over your fingers, you'll know how amazing the brush on version is. It dispenses exactly the right amount of product and eliminates all mess. Plus, it dries almost invisibly. Every MUA should have this in their kit. 

Shellac

Over the past few months I've been having Shellac manicures, and now I'm not sure I could ever go back to painting them myself. Shellac lasts 3 weeks on my nails and I just love it. This is my latest colour - Cake Pop. 

Matte Eye Shadows
I've been completely obsessed with matte eye looks, reaching for them far more often than shimmers recently. Some of my favourites are Anastasia Beverly Hills Morocco, Fudge and Noir, Urban Decay Tease and Mac Quarry. 
Lip Liners
I just love the difference that lining my lips makes. Mac Stripdown is the perfect brown nude, and I've been using it loads. Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat in Pillow Talk is almost exactly the colour of my lips, so I can get away with slightly over lining. They also make my lipstick last longer. 

I'm sure there are things I've forgotten! What are your favourites from May?
