January Favourites

21:24 | Edit Post
I am currently on my semester break, so I don’t really use that much makeup since I spend most of my time just chilling in my home and of course I don’t wear makeup in my own house. That’s why most of my January favourites aren’t makeup products, but mostly skin care and just some random stuff. So here are what I've been loving throughout January

Fringe
Just like everyone else who has too much free time, I spend most of it in front of my laptop, watching TV shows. Fringe is what I've been watching for a few weeks, and I’m telling you, I’m obsessed with this show! My day isn't complete without me watching at least one episode. This is actually not a new series since it ended in 2013.
It is a science fiction series about an FBI agent who handles not your daily, normal type of crimes, but bizarre phenomenon with the help of a (slightly) mad scientist and his son. I love everything about it, the actors are brilliant (you’ll know why I said this when you reach season 3), the storyline is intriguing with plot-twists everywhere and the characters are developing so nicely. Walter Bishop, the mad scientist, is probably my favourite character in the show. His weird sense of humour could lighten up even the darkest situation. If you love science fiction, you would want to check this one out.

Bio Oil
My skin was really dull and dry after I got back home from Saudi Arabia. I put this oil on my face overnight in hope that it will re-hydrate my face. The next morning, I swear I could really tell the difference this oil made. Not only that it has re-hydrated my face, it also brought back the glow in it at the same time. Since then, I used it every night. Sadly, after a few weeks, I had a breakout. I’m not sure what caused it, whether this product or other new skin product that I recently tried out. Now I’m waiting until my skin clears up, then I will try this out once more. I hope that it will go well this time.

Simple Spotless Skin Rapid Action Spot Zapper
If you have read my last post, you’d know how I love this product. Since I’m having a breakout recently, this product has saved my skin. It certainly has healed my spots faster. If you want to read my complete review on this product, click here.

Tammia Beauty Puff
I actually bought this only about a week ago, but it was still in January, which means it counts right? For Rp88000 (about $8) this beauty puff is amazing. It works really well in applying my BB cream and I've never felt this easy when I’m applying it on my face. It glides smoothly on my face and I really love the finished look of it. It looks really natural and skin like compared to when I use a brush or my fingers. I think I’m never going back to using brush or my fingers anymore as long as I have this on my dressing table.

The Body Shop Honeymania Body Butter
My skin is really dry lately and this product has amazingly helped it a lot. The consistency of this body butter is so thick and rich. You only need a thin layer of it to work its wonder on your skin. I wear it most of the time at night before bed, and don’t you just love the feeling when you wake up and your skin feels so soft? The scent is also so gorgeous as it’s a perfect combination of sweet and floral, helping me to relax at night. Now I know what to reach for whenever my skin acts out again.

So, what have you been enjoying lately?

    Love Body shop butters <3 Almost no matter what scent it could be! lol and the beauty blender/puff looks pretty good for an amazing price! I never used it with my BB cream though? I could try! I use mine for the L'Oreal true match foundation, it works like magic - pretty much like you had mentioned!

      Couldn't agree more, they are amazing!
      I know right? I didn't expect it to work that well, but it actually works really great. You should try it with BB cream :)

    Great post. I've been wanting to try the body butters from the body shop. Tv show wise I have been so obsessed with criminal minds. I'm not a fan of cop/crime shows. I generally find them boring but this and bones are the ones that I like.

      You should try it. It works really well. :)
      I love criminal minds too! But I stopped in the middle of season 3. Might want to start watching it again someday. I've also been wanting to watch bones, but they've gotten so far and I don't know if I have the commitment to watch all of it lol

      I've heard so many things about Lush. Too bad we don't have it where I live :(. The only option is online shopping but I'm not really sure about it.
      Thanks! I'm following you back :)
