Blogmas Day 19 : Makeup Must Haves for 2016

makeup must haves for 2016

I have put together a list of makeup must haves for 2016. The majority of these products have been quite popular throughout the year of 2015, so they're perfect to try out in the new year if you haven't yet. I have found that Urban Decay products are always high quality and I've always wanted to try the prep spray. I've heard fantastic reviews on the setting spray so that's a heads up. 

Charlotte Tilbury has been very popular throughout this year, lipsticks in particular. I haven't yet tried anything from Charlotte Tilbury but if I had to get something, I would get this lipstick in the colour 'Walk of Shame'. Just because I feel like it would suit me and it's different to all the other colours I own.

I have been wanting the Anastasia dipbrow for a while now. I've heard so many great reviews on it in the past, so maybe 2016 will be the year for me to try it out myself.

Winter Beauty Must Haves

winter beauty must haves

As winter is on its way I decided to put together a list of winter beauty must haves! I always feel like I need some winter must haves each year.
(Starting from the top left going across)

Snow Melt - £2.00 - Lush 

When I saw this bath melt on the Lush website I just had to look more into it. It's got a bit of glitter and shimmer in it. It's just so wintery and makes me feel cosy! Plus, it's only £2! How good is that!?

Vitamin E Moisture Cream - £12.00 - Best Seller - The Body Shop 

I think most peoples skin get quite dry in the winter months so I found this hydrating vitamin E moisture cream in The Body Shop. I can see that it's a best seller too, so that's also a heads up. 

Max Factor Colour Collections Lipstick (894 Raisin) - £6.99 - Boots

I love a nice A/W lipstick in the winter months. I've heard such good things about this certain lipstick and it's got so many great reviews. I love it in the colour 'Raisin' as it would suit me perfectly.

Benefit ooh la lift under eye brightener -  £17.50 - Debenhams 

This is meant to perk up tired eyes. I find that my eyes and eye make-up is always quite dull in the winter mornings so I when I came across this, I was so excited to read more about it. I've never heard of this before until I went onto the Debenhams website.  

OPI Polka.com - £12.50 - Debenhams

I love OPI nail polishes but when I came across this one, I loved it even more! It reminds me of Christmas and parties. Love it!

Baby Lips Vitamin Peach Punch - £2.99 - Maybelline 

I've heard so many good things about Baby Lips. Whether it's winter or not, my lips are dry all the time. I usually put on vaseline but it's nice having a hint of colour now and then.

Magic Wand - £5.25 - Lush

Everyone raves about this certain product from Lush and I can see why. It just looks so magical and it reminds me of fairies.

Eyelure Cheryl Lashes First Date - £6.00 - Boots

I absolutely love Eyelure lashes and these just look perfect for Christmas parties and New Years Eve etc.

What are your winter beauty must haves?

5 Products I'll Never Buy Again

5 products i'll never buy again

I would just like to say that I'm not against any of these products that I mention in this post. They just don't work for me personally so I wouldn't purchase them again.


Rimmel London Lasting Finish Primer- I've owned this for a while and I've used it many times - enough times to realise that it's not for me. It makes my skin dry and my makeup ends up all patchy after applying it.

Kelly Brook Nail Polishes- As you can see, there's two Kelly Brook nail polishes shown above. They're actually a pack of two and I added these because these are the ones I actually own myself. I don't know about you, but I find these incredibly runny. I just can't manage them. I also find that it doesn't go on evenly either.

Benefit Porefessional- I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for this one because it's most peoples go-to product. But it just doesn't work for me! I have huge pores and they're so hard to hide. I honestly thought that this product would do the trick but it didn't.

Vo5 Dry Backcomb Spray- I first saw this advertise on a YouTube video. You know them very annoying adverts whilst you're waiting for a video... eurgh! To get volume in my hair, I usually backcomb at the root, which isn't healthy for your hair! (me, a hairdresser? You wouldn't think so!) I ended up buying this product honestly thinking that it was going to work. It does absolutely nothing! 

Makeup Revolution Ultra Blush and Contour Palette- I mentioned this in a Makeup Revolution haul post. This was the only product that I weren't too keen on. There's about 2 or 3 shades out of the 8 which I do like. I don't love them, but I like them. So why would I waste my money buying another palette?


Do any of these 5 products work for you or do you have the same problem?
