October Faves and Empties!!

Better late than never right?? haha 

I'm going to begin this post by saying what I say every time I do a favourites post...I can't believe how fast this year is going!! November already? Are you kidding me?!!!

Anyway onto the products that I have been loving this month.

October Favourites!!

1. Ulta3 Eyeshadow Palette in Money Bags ($6.95AUD from Terry White Chemist)

Since buying this palette I have been using it pretty much everyday. It's so compact and has all the colours I need to create a nice neutral look, which makes my morning makeup routine go a lot faster. The colours are very pigmented and soft and they apply nicely to the eyes. The only downside is they are a tiny bit crumbly.

2. Savvy by DB Jumbo Bronzer in Terracotta ($9.95AUD from Priceline)

I have previously given my thoughts on this bronzer here. It's a great cheap matte bronzer perfect for contouring!

3. Dior Highlighter in Amber Diamond ($50.50AUD from Strawberrynet.com)

This is the prettiest makeup product I own (also the most expensive!). It is a gorgeous subtle highlighter that just makes you feel instantly prettier.

4. Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Sin ($10.99USD from Allcosmeticswholesale.com)

Speaking of highlighters I have been loving using Sin as a cheek highlight this month. It's more of an obvious looking highlighter but still looks really gorgeous.

5. MAC Cream Blush in Ladyblush ($41AUD from MAC)

My mum recently gave this to me after her trip overseas. I had been lusting after it for a long time and I love it. It's been on my cheeks pretty much the whole of October. It's a gorgeous natural pinky colour. (For some reason it looks a lot more apricot toned in the picture and swatch but its more of a pink)

6. The Lip Combo of MAC's Girl About Town lipstick ($36AUD from MAC) and Nars Lipgloss in Turkish Delight ($24USD from Kissandmakeupny.com)

I didn't think Girl About Town suited me until one night when I added Turkish Delight over the top of it and it looked amazing! (See swatch below) It tones it down slightly while making it a little less harsh and cool-toned against my pale skin. This has been my go-to lip combo for nights out this month.

7. MAC MSF Natural in Light/Medium ($47AUD from MAC)

I love this face powder. It looks so natural on the skin. I either use this lightly as a setting powder or with a setting spray to dampen it and then I buff it into the skin as my foundation. Either way it looks great.

And those are my (late) favourites for the month of October. I hope you enjoyed!!

L-R: Terracotta Bronzer, Amber Diamond, Ladyblush, Sin,
Girl About Town and Turkish Delight.

I also wanted to include a few empties in this post as I only had 4 and didn't think it warranted a separate post. So here is what I finished this October :)

October Empties!!

These are all products I love and will continue to buy over and over. First is the pink Dove deodarant. I use Dove deodorant as I love the scents they have and I find them quite moisturising. I also find they last the whole day which is always a plus. 

Next is my favourite body wash, it's the Original Source Shea Butter and Honey Shower Cream. I buy this from my local supermarket and am so in love with it. It has the most amazing creamy honey scent. 

Blake and I both use the Redwin Vitamen E Cream as our daily moisturiser and both love it. It is so moisturising and I swear this is a big reason why my skin has cleared up so much. The best bit? It's only $3 from Priceline. 

Lastly is the Nivea lip balm in Hydro Care. This is my favourite out of this line of lip balms and probably one of my fave balms in general. It's super moisturising and lasts a long time on the lips. 

What were your favourites this past month? And what have you guys used up???
