Products i'm McLovin!

A few posts ago I shared the products that weren't really doing it for me at the moment so now it's time to share the products that are floating my boat!;)

1) The Body Shop Black Velvet Apricot Lip Balm
This is from a new range at TBS. This lip balm feels lovely and moisturising on the lips, smells nice and has the slightest tint and sheen to it. It's great for on the go and can be worn over lippy too so to tone down the colour. This range also do the burning oils (is that what they are called?) for at home which I am also loving!


2) MAC Moisturelush Cream
I purchased this last month for the first time. My skin once again is going through a rough patch and I honestly put it down to all the messing about with different products that I do. A MUA recommended this ... in fact, I should add it was an MUA with to die for skin so I put my trust in her 100%. I have to say the tip off has bode well and my skin is feeling lovely and smooth with this and dare I say it, younger! The cream is rich and thick in texture and warmed up a little it is easily massaged into the skin. I wear this at night as for me it is too thick as a morning cream. My skin is far from perfect but I do believe I need to work from the inside out to achieve that *pledges to drink more water*

3) MAC All That Glitters and Glamour Check
Admittedly, All That Glitters is a bit of a cult favourite and probably needs very little explanation but the reason it is in my favourites just now is because I have been wearing it most often teamed with Glamour Check (see previous FOTD post) and I am loving the results. Glamour Check is a lovely deep, warm brown with burgundy reflects. I have been creating a daytime smokey eye with this and for night time I add some definition using carbon or beauty marked. I would say that Glamour Check is very very close to Twinks and Antiqued so if you already have those then there may be no need for this product.

4) MAC Vegas Volt
I blogged about this a few posts ago and it was my holiday product winner! The tone of the coral-orange is just gorgeous and is versatile for day or night time wear. I'm off on holiday next week again and this is definitely coming with me :)
5) Bobbi Brown Colour Corrector in light bisque
I love my concealer, i pack it on especially under my eyes, however a few weeks ago while visiting Bobbi Brown the MUA suggested instead of packing on the concealer ensure I used my colour corrector more readily (already in my stash) and I should feel less need to layer up on the concealer. You know what? She was right! I've been using the colour corrector every day and I there is definitely less concealer wastage. This particular colour corrector is a light pink in appearance and it counteracts purple tones (undereye dark circles) in the skin. This really is a wonder product for me.

6) Bobbi Brown Foundation Stick in Sand
I mentioned in a previous post that YSL perfect touch really wasn't doing me any favours in the beauty stakes and vowed to stick to what I know. Well, this is what I know! Bobbi Brown foundation stick is what I wore on my wedding day and my skin looked flawless so going back to this has been a bit of a saviour. It is medium coverage but can be built up to full coverage without looking cakey, thick or greasy. I find it gives me a radiant glow and lasts the full day too which is a major plus point for me!

That's my top products of the moment, what are your favourites just now?
