June 16 Favourites

I feel like I haven’t written a post in forever! During the past month I have been so busy with work and also planning some super exciting things for the blog. Me and Rob also went on holiday to Whitby which was so nice and relaxing. So now that I am back I think it’s about time I told you about my June favourites. I hope you had an amazing month!

May 16 Favourites

I hope you have all had an amazing and sunny May, I can’t believe how quickly this month seems to have gone, throughout May I have tried so hard to work on my fitness levels and get myself back in to a fitness regime so I have had a pretty sensible month! I’ve worked very hard and treated myself with a few shopping sprees. As well as meeting my best friend’s gorgeous baby girl, a family wedding and a couple of girlie nights out. So I thought I would share with you my May favourites!

April 16 Favourites

April has been a difficult month for me, I have been so poorly this month and feel like I have spent the whole month either lay in bed or at the doctors. I had an amazing girls night out for my best friend’s birthday and threw a baby shower for another of my best friend’s birthday, I’ve done a couple of nice things but mainly just lots of antibiotics and Harry Potter. But the times when I have dragged myself out of bed, these are the products that I have been reaching for.

MONUspa Rosewood Reviving Mist Review

I am having a really difficult skin moment right now, my skin has changed from combination to extremely dry and I am really struggling to adapt my skin care routine to accommodate my new skin type (any recommendations please leave a comment, I could definitely do with some help). I think that now that I am no longer a teenage my hormones have changed a lot and my skin has lost all of it’s moisture making my makeup constantly looks cracked and clingy. So in order to combat this, I have been reaching for the MONUspa Rosewood Reviving Mist.

Anastasia Beverly Hills DIPBROW Pomade

I have waited too long to talk to you all about the Anastasia Beverly Hills DIPBROW Pomade. I purchased this back in February along with the number 12, Large Synthetic Duo Brow Brush, and I have been getting a lot of use out of it since then!

Manna Kadar Conditioning Lash Primer

We never forget to condition our hair in the shower or moisturise our skin before bed, but no one ever tells us that we should be conditioning our lashes! Whenever we complain about our hair not growing longer or looking thicker, hairdressers just tell us to look after our hair better, deep condition it more, get it trimmed more regularly, don’t cram it full of product, and then once your hair is healthier, it should also look healthier. So many people want thicker, longer eye lashes, but never actually do anything to try and make that happen.

Spring Nail Varnishes

I don’t know about you, but I am really feeling Spring this year. I am loving Spring makeup looks, Spring fashion, not having to wear a giant coat everytime I leave the house and of course Spring nails. So I thought I would share with you the nail varnishes that I am loving this Spring. There are a few pastel colours and a couple of brighter shades, but they are all perfect for brightening up your digits after the Winter blues.

Stationery Haul

So as you all know I am obsessed with stationery, I am currently starting my CIMA qualification and I am really struggling to get my head in to it. As a way of trying to encourage myself to do more studying I have been out and bought a lot of new stationery! So I thought I would show you what bits I have bought!

MAC Pro Palette

I finally got myself a MAC pro palette (it’s been a long time coming) and I am so excited to fill it up! I got a 15 shadow palette and 3 shadows which are all very different but all fantastically beautiful in their own way. I absolutely love the idea of creating my own palette with only my favourite shades in it, so I am very excited to get started.

March 16 Favourites

I hope you have had a fantastic March, I’ve had a really really busy month, a lot of working and a lot of other commitments, but it has been so nice to move in to Spring and to enjoy a few days off over Easter. So here are a few things that I have been loving throughout March.

Spring Lush Haul

Happy Easter! I hope you all had a fantastic day and ate all the chocolate! I spent my Easter doing lots of Easter baking, some Easter crafts with my nephew, a Easter Egg hunt and of course a big Sunday dinner! Easter means that we are well in to glorious Spring and I thought I would celebrate by doing a blog post on my recent Lush Spring Haul. If you follow me on Snapchat (megandoesbeauty) then you will have seen lots of snaps of these cute Lush goodies.

Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream Contour Kit

This review has been a long time coming, the Anastasia Beverly Hills Cream Contour Kit has quickly become a firm favourite of mine. I purchased the Light palette, and it has 6 cream shades, 3 highlights and 3 contour shades. The highlight shades are all really different, there’s a very light shade, a peachy shade and a banana shade, so there is something for everyone’s skin tone. The 3 contour shades are pretty similar but they differ slightly in warmth.

February 16 Favourites

I am very late with my February favourites and I haven’t posted in over a month. I haven’t had the best month, so I’ve been taking a little break from blogging. I’ve had a lot of things going on, especially with work and I’ve been feeling very over whelmed and super busy, but this week I am feeling much more positive and back and ready to chat. Due to me being super busy and in work constantly I don’t have loads of makeup favourites to show you, so I thought I would share with you some lifestyle bits that I have been loving recently.

What's In My Bag Feb 2016

Hi Everybody and Happy Friday! The weekend has finally arrived again, today I am working all day, then going to the gym, then hopefully chilling out in front of the tele! So today I thought I would do a ‘What’s in My Bag’ post, I am super nosey so I love reading these blog posts and watching the youtube videos, so thought I would share with you all exactly what’s in my bag. If you follow me on snapchat you will have already seen a lot of my handbag contents - if not, come follow me on snap: megandoesbeauty

Makeup Brush and Tool Collection

I thought it was about time that I shared with you my favourite makeup brushes of the moment, I have a lot of makeup brushes and tools, some I use every day, some that can be used to apply virtually every product and some which I couldn’t live without. So without boring you with every single brush that I have I thought that I would pick out some of my favourites to tell you about in case you are in the market for a particular brush or just want to try something new.

January 16 Favourites

Welcome to the first monthly favourites of the year, I hope you all had a great January even though it has flown by. I love January, for me it is a month that symbolises new beginnings, a step towards making yourself the you that you want to become. This month for me has been focused on work, studying and healthy eating. I started back on my old healthy eating and exercise regime, over the past 4 weeks I have lost a whopping 11 pound and 3 inches from my waist and 1.5 inches from my hips, so this month has consisted of a lot of random favourites including recipes, foods and lifestyle bits but for now here are my January beauty faves!

2015 Makeup Favourites


2015 was a great year of makeup for me, I’ve done a bit more experimenting this year when it comes to makeup and I have tried a lot of new things. This year I have broken my favourites down into categories because it was getting too difficult to just pick a handful of products. It was quite hard to think back to the start of 2015, but I have just tried to pick things that I have been constantly picking up through the year. So I hope you enjoy!

Christmas Presents 2015

I hope you all had a fantastic Christmas and New Year, today is a little depressing for me as it’s the day that I have to take down the Christmas tree, so before the festivities completely disappear for another year I thought I would tell you about the Christmas presents that I received this year – which I am super grateful for. I’ve concentrated only on beauty because I didn’t want to bore you too much with every pressie I got (but definitely let me know if you would like to see a post on all other pressies). So here are some of the beauty goodies that Rob, my family and my friends got for me this year!

New Year Resolutions 2016

Happy New Year everybody! I hope you all have a lovely New Year’s Eve and have a great day today. My mum is cooking a dinner today for the family to get together and celebrate the start of 2016, which will be the perfect way to shift this hangover! 2015 had some real lows and also some great highs. I always feels like the start of a new year is the perfect excuse to forget about the lows, brush them off and move onwards, however I do always think it is a good time to reflect on all the good times and be thankful for what we have!
