This is my first favourites post so I hope you like it. I decided to include none beauty things in to the list too. I have tried a few new things I have been enjoying this month and some of the things are old but I still love them and have been reaching quite a lot for them this month.
Lets start with the beauty things
Beauty
Good things face the day moisturiser.
I ran out of my Nivea day moisturiser so when I walked in to boots I decided to try something new that didn't have too many bad ingredients for my skin. I remembered Isobel talking about this brand so decided to give it a go! I am really glad I did. I am going to do an actual review on this but it is at least 90% natural and the smell is amazing. I always feel fresh after putting this on my face everyday. It refreshes you.
Maybelline Colour 24 tattoo on and on bronze.
I have already reviewed this beauty here. I have had this for months and still love it. The colour is a fab everyday kind of colour that is perfect for both daytime and for a night out. It lasts for such a long time.
Rimmel Scandaleyes Mascara
I've already reviewed this here but I love this mascara. It volumises and lengthens so so so well! It makes my lashes look amazing and me more awake. I have a few mascara's I want to try but I will have no hesitation in repurchasing this again.
Prada Candy perfume
I was at the perfume counter looking to find a sample of the new chloe perfume when they lady gave me this one. I didn't really expect to like this as I am not too much in to flowery sweet scents and I thought this would be one of those but I was wonderfully surprised at how wearable this is. The scent is not too overpowering. I keep this in my make up bag to freshen up with.
Kate Moss lipstick in 107
Are you sensing a Rimmel theme here yet? They have been on point in 2012 and are set to do the same in 2013.

Kate Moss lipstick in 107
Are you sensing a Rimmel theme here yet? They have been on point in 2012 and are set to do the same in 2013. Rimmel launched the new Matte collection by Kate Moss in October and this shade sold so fast trying to find it is still a bit like trying to find fairy dust! It is a deep red plummy colour. The lasting power on it is incredible and it is so easy to apply. I have already reviewed it here if you want more of an indepth opinion on it.
Rimmel Apocalips
Yes, I know I brought in to the hype which is something I actually do not do that often. I will be doing a review on these but I brought the shade Celeste which is a great everyday colour. It isn't a lipgloss as such it is more like a lipstick with a glossy finish. I am not a lipgloss person so I didn't expect to like this or even want to buy it but after seeing all the reviews I had to swatch them myself and see what I thought. I am glad I did!
Non Beauty Favourites
This is mainly food...oopps
Sunpat Peanut Butter
Did you know peanut butter in small amounts is good for you? It is high in monosaturated fat (good fat) which is what your muscles needs. You shouldn't have it everyday but a couple of times a weak is good for you. I decided to give it ago as I have always been intrigued and I have been really liking it. It is great ib toast. I am going to try a different brand which is slightly more organic than this but I really do like this.
Jam
I have an obsession with jam. Specifically strawberry and raspberry jam. I put Jam on everything from toast to crumpets so it seemed fitting to feature it here.
Crumpets
Talking about Jam led me nicely on to crumpets. I have started having these for breakfast and have become hooked! I have it with a little bit of butter or jam or even on it's own. It is a good winter snack as they are healthyish and they go really well with a cup of tea!
Options mint hot chocolate
I am not much of a instant hot chocolate person but I like this. It is perfect cure for chocolate cravings. I add a little bit of milk in it so it isn't watery,
hope you enjoyed reading my first favourites post
What have you all been enjoying this month? let me know!
Lots of love
