XxxLoveIsBeautyxxX: April Favourites

Hey Beauties!

It's so scary to think that we're coming into May, the year is going by so fast!

Summer is sneaking ever closer and I for one am so excited thinking about the warmer weather, Summer clothes and general relaxation.

For this post, I thought I would show you guys some of the products I've been loving in the month of April!

Rimmel Apocalips - Apocalyptic - €7.99

You guys know that I'm a huge lip product fan and am certainly not afraid to wear colour so these beauties are a god send for me.

They're basically a liquid lipstick that are big on colour and somewhat stain the lips, ensuring you still have colour long after the gloss fades.

I really like the colour range, from light nudes to bright pinks and corals you're sure to love at least one and the red shade 'big bang' is a standout for me.

This month though I have been loving the shade 'Apocalyptic', a bright pink that screams Summer and looks amazing with a tan!

Maybelline Brow Satin Brow Pencil - Dark Brown - €8.99

Brows are huge now with the saying 'brows on fleek' seemingly on everyone's lips and there's nothing better than finding something from the drugstore that can help us with our ''fleekness''!

This product is double ended with a wind-up pencil on one side and a powder with smudger on the other, all to help you create natural looking brows.

I mainly use the pencil and love the shade, it looks really natural and doesn't leave my brows looking too dark.

You do need to lean quite a bit on the pencil to transfer the colour properly but the end result is well worth it.

Max Factor Creme Puff Blush - Nude Mauve - €11.49

These blushes have created such a stir and are definitely one of the best launches of this year so far in my opinion, they certainly rival the Hourglass offerings and are a bargain in comparison.

I was lucky enough to be sent the collection and love the shade range, from berry pinks to coral tones and nudes, there's something for everyone.

This month I have been loving Nude Mauve, a beautiful more nude shade that's perfect for the days where you want something a little low-key on the cheeks and it's said to be a great dupe for Hourglass Diffused Light (I think that's the shade!).

These blushes are pigmented without being hard to work with and are easy to blend and of course the packaging and marbled effect are stunning to look at.

Revlon ColourStay Foundation - Rich Tan - €17.79

I had never tried much makeup from Revlon until this year and boy am I addicted now!

This foundation is something of a cult favourite with beauty lovers but is quite a high-end price for the drugstore.

I have the combination skin one and it's perfect, it gives a nice satin high coverage finish while blending out easily and not feeling too thick on the skin.

The shade Rich Tan is a great match for when I'm tanned and the lasting power is amazing, I use this on the days where I want my makeup to last and look flawless.

A total drugstore gem and something that might be included in my end of year favourites!

Loreal L'Extraordinaire Liquid Lipstick - Molto Mauve - €13.49

Kylie Jenner and her lips are certainly achieving cult status with girls everywhere desperate to recreate her full lip look.

I personally love the look of bigger lips as long as they don't look ridiculous and the shade Molto Mauve is a great dupe for her shade in my opinion.

These liquid lipsticks are pigmented and have a great glossy texture so that you get a great colour without drying out your lips.

They don't feel super sticky at all, they're just really comfortable and last well for a glossier product.

I like to team mine with a nude liner I have from Essence to get that fuller look!
