It actually terrifies me that we're in April already, where has this year gone?! I'll probably end up saying this every month, but March actually went so quickly; despite having no holiday periods in March, it did go by much quicker than I anticipated and now I am just dreading my Summer exams - hopefully I'll do alright! Right, onto the point of this post, I am going to be sharing with you my Most Adored from March, hope you enjoy and will discover some products that you want to try out!
♥ essie nail polish - lapiz of luxury
I absolutely ADORE this nail polish! I purchased this in February from Westfields and never got a proper chance to wear it because of school, but I did put it on for the last week of school before the Easter holidays (despite being told to take it off eventually) it looked so good on my nails with just two coats! And with this formula of essie nail polishes, it doesn't require me to wear a top coat or a base coat which is the perfect way to get colour on your nails in you are in a rush! I can definitely see myself wearing a lot of this into the Summer!
♥ nails inc. nail polish - chelsea physic gardens
I have written a review of this nail polish here so I won't go into loads of detail in this post. Surprisingly, this crept into my favourites although not having the best application, I guess I just fell in love with the colour! It is literally the perfect, bright, summery blue and reminds me so much of cute weddings which is always pretty and nice! I love this nail polish and will definitely be getting more wear out of it.
♥ MAC lipstick - lovelorn
I got this lipstick awhile back last year and initially didn't like it very much as I thought that it was very sheer and pretty much a pointless lipstick. However, I recently rediscovered it and found out that it is a lustre finish which means it is meant to be a bit less pigmented than the other MAC lipsticks I own. I absolutely adore this lipstick for school and it is such a simple colour which is also very buildable - I think that this is the perfect summery toned lipstick for school as it isn't too vibrant but you can definitely tell that you can something on with a few coats. A definite must-have through the month of March!
♥ Nars blush - orgasm
I got this blush mid-way through March and I have literally been wearing it non-stop since. I have never liked a lot of blush on myself, possibly because of my awkward skin tone or the fact that I just have never been bothered to look very hard as blush isn't exactly a staple peace of my everyday make-up. This blush, however, is the perfect colour and I use the Real Techniques Contour Brush to apply it and it gives such a natural, healthy glow to the skin. Despite its hefty price tag at £21.50, I do love it very much. Check out my review here!
♥ Lancome Mascara - Hypnose Star
Ahhh! My new favourite mascara, after coughstalkingcough the Jenner sister's Keeks and other various sites where they talk about their make-up items, I picked this mascara up at Debenhams one afternoon and have fallen in love with it ever since. Although it does not hold curl very well (I pair it with a waterproof L'Oreal Telescopic Mascara) it gives amazing volume yet defining each lash perfectly, I definitely want to try out other Lancome mascaras as I have previously owned one and loved that one too, but I think they discontinued it - sad face.

♥ Urban Decay Eyeshadow Palette - Naked 2
I believe I got this palette in February and I have loved it for the month of March! I usually don't wear eye shadow for school but the colours in this palette "forces" me to wear it! I wear "bootycall" all over the lid, "buck" (from Naked palette) in the crease and finally "blackout" in the outer corner. I love the brush also as it blends really well and gives my eyes a really natural smokey eye effect. To see the colours in more detail, you can check out my review of the palette here.

♥ Yves Rocher Foundation - "Pure Light" Light and Luminous - Beige 200
I am not one to wear foundation normally and the main reason I started wearing this product in the month of March was due to the fact that I got the set of Real Techniques brushes and I wanted to try out the stippling brush, so I found this foundation in my collection (which I actually got for free when I bought the Yves Rocher Sexy Plush mascara) and I absolutely adore the foundation! It is perfect for me who is someone that still want a natural coverage and for the natural skin to show when they wear foundation and this is exactly what this foundation does. It is super lightweight and it literally feels like you are not wearing anything at all. Definitely go check it out on the Yves Rocher website!

♥ Real Techniques - Stippling Brush
MY PRECIOUS. This is literally the best brush I have ever tried for applying foundation, it gives such a flawless yet natural coverage and when combined with the foundation I mentioned above, it evens out my skin tone but keeps my naturalness! For a brush of this quality, I would say that it is quite cheap and the bristles are so soft but they do the job really well! I have written a full review of the Real Technique brushes that I purchased earlier this month, which I have will link here.
♥ Original Chloé Perfume
MY NEW FAVOURITE PERFUME. The story is, back in November I had an interview for a school which required me to go through town to get a bus to, being so I was ahead of schedule, I didn't want to get a super early bus and arrive at the school and kind of make the staff feel like they need to look after me, so I wandered into Debenhams for a bit. It was then I discovered this amazing scent but never brought myself to by a over £30 perfume. I did spray this all over myself before heading to the school and luckily I got into their sixth form so this smell always bring back happy memories. My bestie bought this for me for Christmas - three months late gift, I know - and I love it so much I only want to wear it on special occasions, haha! It smells so good!
