It's been a while since I've done a beauty favourites post, simply because I actually don't buy as much makeup as I used to, and there aren't too many new releases that have excited me lately.
However, throughout October I seemed to have gotten quite a few new products. I think this time of year seems to bring the more exciting releases in the lead up to Christmas.
I've managed to narrow it down to the best of the bunch. So here are seven new beauty releases I'm currently loving:
BARRY M LIQUID CHROME HIGHLIGHTER DROPS
I'm sure you've all heard of these by now. These were an absolute pain to get a hold of, the shade I wanted seemed to be sold out everywhere! But finally, I was able to find the shade 'Beam Me Up' on ASOS.
In a world where we are all obsessed with highlighting, these have become an essential of mine! I apply a few drops to my cheekbones and brow after my foundation, and blend out with a beauty blender.
Honestly, these are great on their own, but I usually use these a sort of base, and apply a powder highlight on top for a blinding glow.
JEFFREE STAR FAMILY COLLECTION
I'm not gonna lie, it's been a while since I bought anything new from Jeffree. I think my last purchase was the Androgyny palette. Saying that, there were a few bits from 'The Family Collection' that caught my eye.
I managed to get my hands on two liquid lips in the shades 'Nathan' and 'Delicious'. I honestly can't fault the formula of Jeffree's lipsticks, I'd even go as far to say they're in my top three! I chose 'Nathan' purely because I love nudey oranges, and 'Delicious' because I actually don't have a colour like this in my collection!
I also picked up one of his Lip Scrubs in the Peach Popsicle flavour. There isn't too much to say about lip scrubs, other than it smells and tastes incredible!
PRIMARK FALSE LASH EFFECT MASCARA
Okay, so I don't necessarily know if this is a 'new release', but I'm going to include it anyway. I have never tried any makeup from Primark, and only picked this up on a whim after forgetting to put my usual mascara in my bag. But I'm actually pretty impressed.
If I remember correctly, this only cost £2.50 and claims to to give your lashes extreme length and volume. I wouldn't say its very volumising, and is pretty clumpy when you try to layer it. However, it does add quite a bit of volume, and for the price I'm not about to complain.
RIMMEL RITA ORA MATTE BLACK NAIL POLISH
I've actually already mentioned this polish in my Rimmel Shades of Black post, but I'm still obsessing over it.
Matte polishes always let me down, and this one just hasn't! It dries quickly and evenly, making the finished result flawless!
HUDA BEAUTY SMOKEY OBSESSIONS PALETTE
Finally, we have the Huda Palettes everyone is going crazy for. Choosing which of the four palettes to go for was one of the hardest decisions I've had to make. In the end, I chose the Smokey Obsessions palette.
First thing's first, yes this palette is pretty small, but the main reason I wanted this was I thought it would be great for travelling. The colour selection is great for taking looks from everyday to nightime. Which means, you could probably just pack this and you're good to go.
The mattes aren't my favourites, but are my no means terrible. It's the metallics and shimmers that make this such a great palette, they are honestly some of the best, if not THE best, shimmer shades I've ever tried.
What beauty products have you been loving lately?

Firstly your photography is amazing! I tried to get a hold of those Barry M drops too when I was in store but no luck :( Seem like they're worth the buy too! x

The Barry m highlighter drops look great! I actually bought the Rimmel Matte black nail polish a few days ago and although I think it looks great the first two days I find it chips really quickly.

I must try some bits from Barry M again. So many people are talking about them lately they look soooo good xx
ReplyDeleteThose highlighter drops look really good, I'm yet to try a liquid highlighter so I might have to give it a go x
ReplyDeleteI just bought the Huda beauty warm brown obsessions and it’s the loveliest palette! I don’t buy Jeffree Star products for ethical reasons but those shades look so lovely! X
ReplyDeleteI agree on the Jeffeee Star lipsticks, best formula! So comfortable and non drying but still pigmented and long lasting.
ReplyDeleteI actually really like Primark make-up! I have a few bits and bobs and have always been impressed, considering the price! I need to get my hands on the Barry M highlighting drops too!

I am definitely going to have to get my hands on that matte black nail polish as I've never found one that I've gotten on with! Also, yes to the Barry M highlighters, I have all of them and I love them SO much! xx
ReplyDeleteThe Matte Black Nail Polish sounds soooo interesting - I'm very tempted to pick this up and try it myself! z
ReplyDeleteAlways wanted to try the Jeffree Star lip colours & I'll definitely be trying to Barry M liquid chrome highlighter, I'm still using the MUR baked highlighter everyone went mad for last year.
ReplyDeleteSo many pretty products in this post! I’m dying to get my hands on a couple of Obsessions palettes, I think the Mauve and Smokey ones are the prettiest! I love Huda Makeup recently

That palette is gorgeous! I love matte eyeshadows but you can't beat something sparkly and shimmery. I'm really into those sort of colours at the moment.

I reckon I'm the last person in the world to try the Barry M highlighters. I need to try them xx
ReplyDeleteThe Huda Beauty palette looks stunning & are exactly the kind of colours I love! x
ReplyDeleteOooh, I'll definitely be heading in to Primark to pick up that mascara, I don't usually layer mascara anyway, so if this adds lots of volume I am sold! The formula of the Jeffree Starr lippies sounds amazing, I've never bought anything from his brand before so I might have to give it a go!

I've seen the new Huda Beauty mini palettes everywhere and I'm SO TEMPTED!!! the one you picked is so beautiful xxx
ReplyDeleteOmg, the Huda palette looks absolutely stunning, I've been seeing these around everywhere at the moment. I really want to pick up one of the Barry M highlighters too, I was swatching them the other day and they're gorgeous! xx

I have 2 of the Huda palettes in my basket and I am soo close to ordering them as they look so good!! I cant believe the price of the mascara for Primark I guess it would be fab for just sticking in your bag when you need some!

I still really want to try the Barry M highlighter drops! I think I'm gonna have to add them to my Christmas list! xx

I haven't tried the Jeffree Star lip products although every time that I read what a blogger has to say about them I make a mental note to try them once again. This is another one of those times haha

I love the look of the Barry M Highlighters, and every one of those Huda Beauty Palettes are stunning!
ReplyDeleteI so need to pick up that highlighter! For such a cheap brand I must! I personally am loving my Skin79 B.B. cream, the coverage is so good (medium not sheer for once!) and it leaves my skin well looked after :)
