I absolutely LOVE reading monthly favourites posts and watching an abundance of similar videos on youtube. I've picked up a ton of products from these such posts and owe a lot to them! However, I've never actually taken the plunge and done one myself. Silly really, times must change! Drum roll please, here are MY favourites of February:
Beauty Bits
First up is the MUA Heaven and Earth Palette. I received this as a gift for Christmas and have pretty much used it everyday since. Its got a great range of shades and I've used this set for everything from highlighting to contouring. Multi-funcitonal and a steal at just £4.
Next is Bobbi Browns Extra Soothing Balm. Its darn expensive (£39) but you can use it as a lip balm, a cuticle cream and a moisturizer. Its also great on sensitive skin and it really helps my sisters eczema.
I received BM Beauty's Eyeshadow in 'Platinum Tiara' in my February Glossybox. At first the loose pigment struck horror into my bones, but a few trial and errors soon saw me getting to grips with picking up this product on a brush and then tapping the excess onto the lid. It has such a beautiful shimmer to the pigment I keep wanting to incorporate the smokey eye look into my everyday eye makeup!
My lips have been rocking this blueish pink lipstick from Rimmel. I was drawn to the packaging and the name 'Vintage Pink.' Its a little bit different than my usual pink/nude look but its still very wearable to college.
Those of you who saw my last post will know I am a proud owner of Marc Jacob's Lola Perfume. I love it, but I don't want to wear it everyday. I want to whip it out on the rare occasion so my boyfriend can go 'oo are you wearing the perfume I bought you for Valentines?' Ghost has been my lazy day substitute and its served its purpose well. Its subtle but a little bit different. Great for whacking on in the morning.
Book
The book or books I'm LOVING at the moment (of course) are The Hunger Games series. I can't wait for the movie, be still, my beating heart. I need not say too much about this series as, unless you live under a rock, you will no doubt have heard of them. However, I will just say, I enjoyed the first book, more than I enjoyed the entire Harry Potter series. Put together. There I said it!

Music
Taylor Swift Feat. The Civil Wars -Safe & Sound
Hauntingly beautiful and desperately sad, this song has been on repeat since I discovered it. Of course since its going to be on The Hunger Games soundtrack, I love it more. How stunning does Taylor Swift look in the music video?
What are YOUR February faves?
