Topshop The Concealer (4ml/ £10)

I think I might have a new dupe on my hands here, I picked this up a little while ago and it immediately rang some bells. It comes in a little glass bottle with a pump which is great for application and also to control wasting product, it only comes in two shades, I have the shade 2 which is perfect for my natural skin tone (it is yellow based) but I would like to get the shade 1 as a highlighting concealer. This concealer is really easy to apply and blend, I prefer using a damp sponge (I generally find this gives the best finish with all base products). This offers great coverage I would say medium to full because it is buildable, it dries to a matte finish. This doesn't seem to crease much on me at all and I find it works equally well on blemishes and dark circles, I would prefer the lighter shade for my under eye area though.

This really reminds me of the Mac Pro Longwear concealer, the packaging, the coverage and the finish are all very similar, but price wise they work out around the same as the Mac one does cost more but also has a lot more product.

Have you tried this concealer?

1. Ren Rosa Centifolia Express Make Up Remover

Just repurchased a new bottle of this, this is a thick cream cleanser which removes every trace of make up, leaves skin feeling ridiculously soft and hydrated without leaving any kind of film on the skin.

2. Korres Jasmine Lip Butter

A soft, sweet smelling balm with a tiny hint of milky pink colour that leaves my lips thoroughly moisturised.

3. Tom Ford Nude Vanille

A very indulgent purchase, but one I would make again, I have got so much use out of this lipstick and the shade is perfect- like nothing I've ever come across.

4. Mac Pro Longwear Concealer

I've been through countless bottles of this amazing stuff, such a light consistency but still amazingly high coverage.

5. Lush Tea Tree Water

A skincare staple of mine, really refreshing and gentle on the skin all the while helping to combat blemishes.

6. Naked Basics Palette

The perfect neutral palette for an easy day look, I prefer this to the Naked 2 Basics and when it eventually disappears I won't hesitate to replace it.

Last year was the year of using up thing to the very last drop and trying not to start new products whilst others were still on the go so I have yet another empties for you guys, sorry if they are getting boring please let me know, but I love looking at empties because you get see people thoughts on the products after a real test.

Lush Rose Jam Shower Gel

Ok, I won't bore you with yet another ode to my love for this, but I managed to nab two 500ml bottle in the sale so I'm fully stocked up for this year too.

Garnier Micellar Water

I am so impressed with this, the quality, the quantity you get for the money, it lasted me absolutely ages. This stuff is so refreshing, cleans of eye make up with ease and leaves skin feeling clean but not dried out. I feel a repurchase coming on.

Garnier Ultimate Blends Shampoo & Conditoner

This range smells lovely and the shampoo lathers up really well, but you do have to use quite a lot (I have very long hair) and I found the Conditoner was just too thin for my liking.

Bodyshop Vitamin C Microdermabrasion 

This face scrub is holy grail, it has tiny little beads that get to work and smooth skin perfectly without being harsh or abrasive.

Dr. Bronner Liquid Soap

I used this to clean my make up brushes after hearing so much about it, it worked really well, I chose the unscented one because I thought that would be best and I really liked it, I think I'll get another bottle soon.

Rodial Fake Tan

Not much to report on this other than it is a very natural looking fake tan, this was the shade 'light', and that it doesn't seem to smell as bad as other fake tans, it was kind of fruity.

Mac Pro Longwear Concealer

I have used this concealer for years and it is one of the best, extremely pigmented but a very thin consistency which makes it perfect for under eyes and blemishes. Luckily I received a new one from Santa.

Sally Hansen AirBrush Legs

This is the perfect quick fix fake tan, it's cut ally designed to be a kind of foundation for your legs, but I use this all over, it's a really quick way to tan up and looks really natural too.

Bodyshop Camomile Sumptuous Cleansing Butter

A really great quick and gentle cleanser, leaves skin clen but not dry, slightly less messy than its sister the Cleansing Oil and a little more travel friendly too, I already have another one on the go.

Lancome Hypnose Mascara

This is my favourite high end mascara, the brush is straight and simple and yet it defines, lengthens and holds a curl perfectly.

Bourjois Volume Glamour Mascara

I really liked this mascara for definition and curl but I just had it was too long and it ended up drying out so it had to go.

This month I've fallen in love with quite a few new products and I've pretty much been using them all month long, there is actually only one old faithful product I found whilst shopping my stash and everything else is pretty new.

1. My new Whistles snake print black leather pouch which I got using my ELLE discount, making it just £15, I love it, I've only used it a few times but it's been perched on my dressing table so that I could store at it all month.

2. The Jouer Matte Moisture Tint (£29), I ordered this from the Blow Ltd website earlier in the month because I got a discount and had been wanting it for ages, I'm so glad I got it, the coverage is amazing, the finish, the packaging, I've been using it almost every day. Full review is ready to go up soon.

3. Boucle Greige Nail Polish by & Other Stories (£5), I just love the nude grey beige tone, it's perfect for autumn and winter and I've had it on my nails at least once a week this month.

4. Sunray Pleat Pearl cream highlighter from & Other Stories (£7), I have literally used this every day, it s a cheaper high street alternative to the Kevyn Aucoin Creamy Duo that I love. It's a very pretty natural glow which is just what skin needs when it starts to get cold.

5. Sleek Brow Stylist in Medium (£5.99), definitely a high street dupe for the Hourglass Arch, it's a bit more waxy but the shape and finish is pretty much the same. Love it.

6. MAC Pro Longwear Concealer (£17) I shopped my stash and found this baby and I honestly don't know why I ever put it away, I've used it to cover my dark circles all month. I'm going to be in need of a new one soon though I think.

7. Rimmel Scandaleyes mascara (£5.99) I've done a whole post about how great I think these mascaras are, especially for the money.

8. Punk Bouquet Body Soufflé by & Other Stories (£10), mainly because I love the scent and this lingers on the skins for hours after I've had a bath, it's a really fresh feminine scent, I love it so much I have the whole set.

9. REN Rosa Centifolia Express Makeup Remover (£13), this is the creamiest cleanser ever that leaves my skin not only clean but super soft and plump looking.

That's it for my favourites from October, are any of these your favourite too?
