March Beauty Favourites featuring Westman Atelier, Byredo, L'Oreal Paris and more!


It's so nice to be at the end of March and fully immersed in spring - my favourite season! I love everything to look and feel fresh and light in spring and that is reflected in today's favourites! 

Byredo Blanche: Starting with fragrance. In all honesty, I don't stick to just one fragrance however I have been reaching for this one A LOT because it smells clean (like fresh laundry), comforting and powdery. It combines notes of white roses, pink pepper, peonies, sandalwood and musk, among others and it's just the perfect spring scent! 

Dior Forever Glow Star Filter: I just love how this takes my skin from drab to fab in an instant. It gives the skin a glow, as the name suggests, but it doesn't have the discoball effect and doesn't highlight texture. If anything, it seems to blur the appearance of pores and fine lines. The perfect pre-foundation product but I also love to wear it on no/minimal makeup days just to liven my complexion up. It's so lightweight that I don't feel like I'm wearing anything!

Sculpted By Aimee Cream Cushion Foundation: A beautiful foundation that offers medium coverage with a dewy finish. It is so easy to top up on the go with the sponge that comes in the compact but I tend to apply with a brush initially. It's so comfortable to wear because it's so lightweight and I love how fresh and youthful it makes my skin look. Perfect for spring!

Westman Atelier Baby Cheeks Blush Stick in Dou Dou: I got this in the Space NK Advent Calendar last year and only started to use it in the last few weeks. I've yet to meet a product from this brand that I don't enjoy. This blush is pretty pigmented but it also blends so well. My preference is to either warm up on my hand at first or just run my brush over the stick itself, rather than apply directly to my cheeks. The colour is bright and it lasts so well on the skin.

Hildun Beauty Kajal Liner in shade Chocolate: I'm newly converted to this Irish brand. I can totally see why people have compared these liners to Victoria Beckham Beauty because they have the same creamy texture and also have the staying power but they are less than half the price. They can be blended and smudged, but once set they won't budge. I need to get more shades!

L'Oreal Brow Lamination Gel*: I love this clear brow gel. It doesn't make my brows feel crispy but it does set them in place and also doesn't feel heavy. It's affordable and one of the best I've tried!

Hildun Beauty Silk to Set Longwear Lip Pencil in shade Hayley: Another winner from this brand! Creamy, pigmented and with great staying power. This particular shades pairs well with so many lip options that I have but I will definitely be buying more!

Hourglass Phantom Glossy Balm in shade Mist: I dug this out again for an easy, everyday glossy balm that isn't sticky or heavy. An easy everyday pink shade but it's also available in many other colours - this one is perfect for me, particularly when I'm wearing light makeup.
