January 2015 Favourites

Products that I've been loving in the month of January includes products for makeup, body care and a detox bottle.

Blogilates Detox Water Bottle - Pink ($16.00 here)

First off, I wanted to talk about how amazing this detox bottle changes my life. Detox water not only get rids of your body toxins but helps to flush out fats from your body as well. More to that, it taste so much better than just plain water. It is literally a water infused with whatever fruits you put in it. 

I heard of detox bottle from Cassey Ho from Blogilates where she shows her 3 detox water recipes here. I bought the Pink bottle, mainly because of the words "Dream it Do it" to motivate me while doing her workouts!

I recently really love the combination of cucumbers and lemon. Cucumbers helps to reduce water retention and lemon helps to cleanse my digestive system. Both is what I really need as I tend to get water retention REALLY easily. After using this method for more than a month now, I can see visible changes on my water retention. No more puffy face!! 

NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream - SMLC17 IBIZA (£5.50 here)

This highly pigmented matte lip cream from NYX is my favourite of the month! Neither a lipstick nor a lip gloss, this matte lip cream is a new type that goes on silky smooth and sets to a matte finish. Even though it is a matte finish, it moisturizes your lips at the same time and lasts for hours 

The shade that I got is a matte deep rose pink colour which I really love once I applied. I am really surprised that this lip cream smells EXACTLY like melted vanilla ice cream!! Usually lip products smells very odd to me but this one smells so delicious! I tend to have very dry lips so I may need to apply my lip balm after application.

CAUDALIE Lip Conditioner (£5.50 here)

Caudalie products are known for paraben free with 99.5% naturally-derived ingredients on their Lip Conditioner. It nourishes, protects and soothes with Grape-seed Polyphenols, shea butter and castor oil. It also contains a delicate vanilla scent with anti-oxidant properties which helps to protect your lips all day.

I bought this I didn't bring a single lip balm on that day and my lips look really chapped. It glides on smoothly and condition my lips without any sticky feeling throughout the day and I love the sweet candy scent of this lip conditioner. Didn't look back since! 

NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil - Yogurt (£6.00 here)

The NYX Jumbo eye pencil is claim to be a creamy radiant eye liner that also doubles as an eye shadow. They are made with a blend of mineral oil and powder which enables to glides on effortlessly. 

The shade that I bought is a pearly light brown-ish colour that is really nice for highlighting the inner corners of the eye. Also perfect to double up as an shimmery eye shadow. It gives a shimmery, almost a champagne colour under lights which looks natural on the eye. The creamy consistency of it makes it lasts longer throughout the day. I can't wait to try more colours from their range.

Korres Citrus Shower Gel (50ml) Full size 250ml RRP £8.00 here

I received this generous sample of this Korres Citrus Shower Gel and I really enjoy using this. All Korres products is dermatologically tested and free from mineral oil, silicone, propylene glycol and ethanolamine, while being enriched with active plant extracts.

This shower gel surrounds you with an uplifting, fresh aroma and has a creamy-foam texture leaving your skin soft and hydrated. It contains Vitamin C, E, zinc and anti-oxidant enzymes to enhance the skin's immune system.

I love the citrus scent of this shower gel and it lathers up quite well.
