In winter, my skin gets so dry, so I tend to experiment a bit more with lip and eye products than face products. My favourite look for lips in the holiday season is definitely the traditional 'berry lips'. From reds to purples I really think it adds a warmth to your face and it looks so festive.

Sweater Weather
This isn't the actual 'sweater weather tag', more of a 'sweater collection' showing you my favourite sweaters (jumpers to us British folk) for the colder weather! I have bought all these within the last 6 months so they should all be available still!
Weekly Favourites 21/11/13
It's been 3 for 2 week at Boots AND Superdrug this week so I've been trying out loads of new products and there's been a few things that I've been reaching for over and over again. I prefer to wear more makeup in the autumn/winter time so my Boots points card has been getting a lot of love :P
Essie Bahama Mama a deep reddish purple maroon colour. Sorry for being so bad at describing colours and scents by the way haha! It applies with a gel/glossy finish and dries so quick, especially for such a thick consistency. This has been on my nails every day for the whole week and I've only reapplied once so I was very impressed with the long lasting too :)
Barry M Fine Glitter Dust 08 this isn't the dazzle dust, it's much finer and lasts longer in the eyes. It's relatively cheap which is good because I only really use this at Christmas time. I put it in the inner corners of my eye using my Real Techniques Accent Brush or sprinkle on tacky nail polish to add a bit of sparkle.
Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain 005 Crush these are maybe my new favourite lip product ever! They are so moisterising and give all day nourishment but they also leave a stain too. You can apply a lot of product and build up the colour or just dap a little on for a flush of colour. I have been wearing the shade 'Crush' which is the perfect winter berry colour and it matches Bahama Mama perfectly. Plus it smells like mints and is retractable!
The Body Shop Body Butter Chocomania this is the perfect festive scent. It makes you smell like you've rubbed chocolate all over your body (in a good way). I get so many compliments every time I wear this because the scent is so long lasting.
So they were my 'must-haves' for this week! Hope you enjoyed it
