The Too Faced Sweet Peach palette wasn't really something I'd thought about before but after hearing a few people rave about it I gave in and bought it, I love the shades in this palette, they seem to have everything you need and the colours work beautifully together, I actually think this palette has a better layout and colour range than the Chocolate Bar palette which is such a relief as I wasn't sure I'd like it as much.
Urban Decay eyeshadows are some of my absolute favourites and I seem to be building a little collection of the single pans, my latest addition is Blackout, I actually have this in a couple of my UD palettes but it's such a useful shade I had to have it in pan form, it's so handy to have as a lot of palettes don't tend to have black/very dark shades so this is perfect to have on hand when I want to add a deeper, smokey edge to my eyeshadows.
The RCMA No Colour Powder is the perfect loose powder, it doesn't leave a powdery cast on the face, it sets makeup well and isn't too heavy on the skin. I've been struggling to find a good loose powder to use all over and this one is exactly what I wanted, my only problem with it is the packaging as I don't like the fact that you have to shake it out of the holes in the lid as it makes a mess and goes everywhere which is a shame.
Everyone seems to have fallen in love with the Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk lipstick and for good reason. It's the perfect partner to the lipliner and looks beautiful, Charlotte Tilbury lipsticks are probably my favourite at the moment and I kind of hope they make this one permanent as I'd hate to run out of it.
Another popular product lately has been the Pixi and Caroline Hirons Double Cleanse, not only does this leave my skin entirely makeup free but it's quick to use as well so even when I can't really be bothered to properly take my makeup off this makes it really easy.
What Would Love Do? came out around Valentines time in the Lush kitchen, it contains benzoin resinoid, tangerine and lavender and smells sweet but fresh as well, the best thing about Lush perfumes is that they smell so different to more popular, regular brand perfumes and tend to last longer as well.
Back in January I lightened my hair from brown to what was supposed to be a dark blonde/rose gold, years of dye abuse however left me with a lighter, coral blonde shade which I wasn't a fan of, the Maria Nila Colour Refresh in Pearl Silver has really saved my hair a lot, it's still now how I'd like it but it has cooled down a lot, it's a toner mask that I use about once a week and it's been working perfectly, I also use the Pink Pop colour every now and again to put a rosy tone in and they work really well, not to mention they smell amazing and leave your hair feeling great.
I actually feel kind of guilty about this one, but it happened, I'm cheating on my Tangle Teezer with the Wet Brush. I'd been hearing rave reviews about it for so long I caved and bought it and it's so good! I feel like it's softer on my hair both wet and dry, but I also love the fact that it has a handle, it's probably my clumsiness but I frequently found myself dropping the Tangle Teezer..or throwing it across the room by accident..I feel bad but I think this is definitely my new favourite hair brush, definitely worth a try.
I love Coconut Lane's laptop accessories and added this one to my collection in February, it's the Rose Gold Marble laptop case and it looks so pretty! They have so many different styles to choose from and also do this rose gold marble in phone cases and other products, the prices are reasonable and the quality is really good too, this definitely isn't sponsored but I do have a 20% discount code if you're looking for anything on the site, just enter ditsy20, I'm definitely excited to see what new products they come up with for this year.
I've been looking for a zodiac coin necklace like this for quite a while and found the perfect one on Simply Different, I love the style of this pendant, especially it's antique silver effect as I think they look much better when they're more worn looking. I've work this nearly every day and love it.
A movie favourite for Feb was definitely Hidden Figures, I loved this film so much, the entire cast was brilliant, it made me laugh, cry but most importantly it really made me really think. I can't wait for it to come out on DVD so I can watch it again.
I'm so annoyed that this months favourites is really late again, life seems to continuously get in the way and working full time awkward hours definitely doesn't help. Hopefully March's favourites won't be quite as late. I do have some really exciting favourites in mind though so it shouldn't be too difficult.
I do have someone very exciting to introduce though which I thought I'd do at the end of this post seeing as she is part of the reason this post is so late (she's very distracting)

This is Luna, our new kitten, she's adorable but can be very mischevious, hence why I've been a bit more distracted, but she's incredibly cute and cuddly. Technically I got her in March but we'll class her as a favourite anyway.
Thankyou for reading, I hope your month is going well, hopefully it won't be so late next time!
