March Favorites
I was a little bit afraid that my monthly favorite beauty related products might end up being the same thing month after month. However, that doesn't seem to be happening right now! After this post I can actually say that I have had three months with different favorite products! You can see my previous favorite posts here.
So, without further ado, my March favorite beauty products!
1 - L'Oréal Paris - Studio Secrets Professional - Universal Lip Glow
This has been my go to lip product this month! It gives my lip a nice glow without being unnatural.
2 - Clinique - Chubby Stick - 07 Super Strawberry (Reviewed here)
Always a favorite of mine. Couple of reasons, it is from Clinique and it is just amazing. I am pretty sure this lip product is what drove me into starting a beauty blog!
3 - Elizabeth Arden - Eight Hour Cream - Intensive Moisturizing Hand Treatment
I really love this hand lotion and it is pretty much finished! There are couple of things that bother me about it but I will write all about that in my first Empties post that I will post tomorrow. I feel that this lotion or "hand treatment" isn't oily, absorbs quickly and doesn't smell that bad.
4 - Beauty Essentials - Purple Power
I got this from Melissa (Bubbles on: Beauty, Fashion and Life!) in the Valentine Swap, I swear I have almost been using it every single day since then. It is purple and I love it!
5 - Gena Laboratories - Healthy Hoof Intensive Protein Treatment (Reviewed here)
As I wrote in my review this is amazing cuticle and nail cream, I don't have anything negative to say about it and they are cruelty free! How amazing! Just love it! Would recommend it to anyone, boys and girls, this is the best cuticle cream I have ever used!
There they are my five favorite beauty related products for March, since the sun is starting to shine like a big ball of fire I can forecast that most of my April favorites will have a high spf!
Bisous!

February Favorites
Last month I wrote my first ever favorite beauty related post (see here). I really liked writing it so here is my February Favorites! Same as last month I picked my five top products for the month.
1 - Candida - Mojito
This is a toothpaste from the supermarket. Why is it on my February favorite list? Well, it tastes freaking amazing! I just love it! It is a limited edition toothpaste that was a brainchild of a customer and because Migros (the supermarket) is just amazing they decided to make it. It tastes minty (but not tongue burning minty but like fresh mint leaves) with a hint of lime! Just amazing!
Candida is one of the brands that Migros owns. They make toothpaste, toothbrushes, mouthwash, dental floss and even chewing gum. It is my go to with everything that I use for my teeth! Yes their name is nasty but they make great products! They have frequently limited edition toothpastes that are amazing, previously I have tried their green apple toothpaste that was as well limited edition and it was amazing, I really miss it. I just hate spearmint and that kind of toothpastes that (in my opinion) burn the tongue.
2 - I am - Intensiv-handcrème
This is as well a store-brand from Migros (they are great). This hand cream has shea butter, panthenol and vitamin E. It is a really good moisturizer for super dry hands (I even sometimes use it on my face in lotion emergencies). It doesn't have too much of a scent and it is quickly absorbed into the skin!
It is one of my go to hand creams since the jar is really sturdy so I can without any worry for it to explode (hate when that happens) into my bag! Another nice factor about it is that it is made in Switzerland!
3 - Mavala - Cuticle Oil
I think this month has a trend of Swiss products! I swear by the Cuticle Oil from Mavala! The oil is absorbed quickly into the skin and doesn't leave oily residue! One bottle is 10ml / 0.3 fl. oz and it has a brush that is similar to nail polish brushes so there is no waste of oil! The brush is as well great since when you use it there is zero mess! The oil has a hint of citrus smell that just makes the whole oiling your cuticles experience even better!
4 - La Lutinerie - Les Bonbecs - Tchaï
I got this lip balm on Christmas, it is made in Switzerland as well! It is made out of shea butter, beeswax, apricot kernel oil, coconut butter, grapefruit seed extract, cinnamon, cardamom and clove. It smells amazing and really helps with dry lips. It comes in a small 5 ml (0.17 oz) jar but it seems endless. I have been using it nonstop since Christmas and there isn't even a dent in the balm.
5 - Mavala - 130 Aqua Blue
I love this colour! I will do a nail post on it this week. I am almost finished with the bottle! Sadly because of my nail polish challenge I won't be able to buy it again for some time now. I love the little Mavala bottles, the brush that they come with are fabulous, the bottles are 5 ml (0.17 oz) and sometimes that is the perfect amount of nail polish in a bottle!
I actually can't believe that my top five products for February are all Swiss products!
If you have a February Favorite post please do post it in the comments so I can check it out!

January Favorites
I love reading other people monthly favorites so I decided that I wanted to try to write one myself! I don't want to make these to long so I plan only on choosing five things each month!
Coconut Oil
Coconut oil is what saves my skin in the winter, I do use my regular moisturizer but my skin just needs so much more during the winter. I use coconut oil on my face before I go to bed and frequently in my hair because that suffers as well in the cold. I always buy cold pressed organic coconut oil.
Clinique High Impact Mascara
For about a year now, this is the only mascara that I use daily! I used to switch around and use different mascaras but since I started using this one full time it is hard to turn back to some other mascara. One of the main reasons I started only using this one was that it doesn't irritate my eyes like the others all of a sudden started doing.
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream Lip Protectant Stick Sheer Tint - Transparent
This is a lifesaver for my lips (or one might say lipsaver). My body just doesn't really handle any weather very so this one has been in my pocket all month long and I use it all of the time. (Reviewed here)
Chanel Stylo Yeux Waterproof - #40 Violine
I just LOVE this eyeliner, I sometimes even use it as a eye shadow. This has been my go to eyeliner since 2011. I just love how purple it is and how well it stays on and how smooth it is. I swear by this eyeliner. (Reviewed here)
Yves Rocher Intensive Moisture Mask Botanical Hydration
I wrote a review about this face mask in January and it is definitely something that I use a lot. Just how it feels on my skin when I lather my face in it makes it worth it. (Reviewed here)
So this were my top five products for January! We will see what February has to offer! Hopefully it won't be the same month after month, but there will possibly be things that will appear often!
