It's near the end of another month so we all know what that means; some monthly favourites! I've been enjoying mostly old favourites this January, but a new skincare item has crept it's way into my stocks and I think it's here to stay...

repurchase + new buy - CAUDALIE!
Caudalie Beauty Elixir - £9.90 (30ml)
Caudalie Foaming Facial Cleanser - £6.75 (50ml)
Recently re-purchased a new bottle of Beauty Elixir, I use this once during my morning routine and using it that way has meant it's lasted way over a month (used in partnership with my No7 toner, which is part of the evening routine...)
I also spied a cute bottle of Caudalie's foaming facial cleanser and figured to give it a try. I'll let you know how it fairs.
I really like that they do 'mini' versions of their products, so you can try them - and then splurge on the bigger bottles.
Peace!

Updated Skincare Routine
Skincare extras; Boots cucumber eye remover gel, Tri-Peptox Scrub, Witch Blemish stick, Superdrug Natural High facial wash, simple wet wipes.
Morning Routine; No7 Hot cloth cleanser, Caudalie Beauty Elixir, Vichy eye roll on, Superdrug Simply Pure moisturiser.
Evening Routine; No7 Hot cloth cleanser, No7 toner, Boots Cold Cream, No7 night eye cream.
After what seemed like months of being in a rut, it seems I have found an-ideal-for-me-right-now skin care routine. Which is always great, you know?
I tend to stick to the same morning/evening routine but if something ain't working I'll switch it up with the extras to give me a little boost.
I'm on the look out for a good serum. I've tried the Caudalie, No7 and L'Oreal serums to date - all from different price ranges as you can see... But let me know if you have any recommendations.
Have you got your ideal routine down pat?
Peace!

feel unique haul!
I got the 30ml Caudalie Beauty Elixir, just to try out before I splurge £30ish big ones on a 'toner' -- so far I really like it, but I get the hype about the smell. Eurgh. It also came with free samples, one almost like a BB cream and a serum to use before moisturiser. All of these are floating my boat right now. :)
I did have three of the lip butters from Revlon, but when my handbag got stolen I lost my 'Peach Parfait' to the thief. Boo. It was the perfect shade for my lips and added a subtle amount of shimmer, so I knew I had to get another nude toned butter... I decided to test out the L'Oreal Paris Caresse in 501 Nude Ingenue. It's perfect - and I adore it. It's a little browner (it seemed a tad pinker online,) than I thought but it is pale enough of on the brown side to still suit my pale skin tone.
I also picked up some Palmers Massage Lotion for stretch marks. I obviously have stretch marks from growing up, standard to most women. I however bought it with mild hopes it may help the scarring from my chicken pox and ease them away quicker. Time will tell. But I love this stuff for moisturiser anyway, it smells gorgeous!
Peace!
