So I have really been reaching for the a lot of the same products the past few months. There are some really good ones, I have been eager to share with you amongst them.
Most of them are new additions, but one is an old favourite, I have rediscovered.
I will go through everything, I have on my face, but I will only go into more detail on the products, that are my current standout favourites.

Base
Erborian Pink Perfect Creme is the primer, I have been looking for - it evens out the skin tone and minimises pores, but do also add some glow to the skin and it makes my make up last really well! What more could you ask for.
For foundation I used a mix of no. 7 Stay Perfect Superlight Foundation in Calico (wish they would do this in a lighter shade) and Rimmel Match Perfection in Light Porcelain.
I double conceal under my eyes and often start with a "designated" under eye concealer. For this look it was the NYX Dark Circle Concealer. Next the Too Faced Born This Way Concealer in very fair under the eyes and on any redness or spots.
This is what I wished for the Nars Radiant Creamy concealer to be, as it is truly both radiant and creamy. It has made it to the top on the high-end concealer list for me. It is lightweight but still have really decent coverage and there is no creasing with this one - it just sits perfect on the skin.
I blend in my concealers with the Real Technique Miracle Mini Sponge - a perfect fit and shape to go under the eyes and around the nose!

Cheeks
I have realised, that I do without a doubt prefer creme products for the cheeks.
So I have been reaching for my creme options including the Illamasqua Cream Pigment in Hollow, which is an old favourite and it is just the perfect shade for contour and it blends like a dream.
The Bobbi Brown Pot Rouges are amazing and my newest one Pale Pink is on my cheeks most days - I love that it stays a cream, but also have quite good staying power - the perfect natural flush.
Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Poured in Pearl is just a lovely pearly sheen - actually not as in you face as the powder version, but the perfect highlighter for pale skin.

Brows
I have quite a few brow pencils in the mix right now, but I used the Anastasia Brow Wiz in Taupe to filling in and shape the brows.
Next I used my new favourite brow products, the Sephora Brow Builder in Honey Blond. It is amazing, if you like the bushy look. It add a lot of texture and the shade is just perfect!
I do also use it alone for lazy days as you can actually also kind of fill in with this one.
Lastly I set the brows with the Anastasia Brow gel.

Eyes
I primed my eye with the Nars Eye Primer (an all time favourite) and then I applied Nars Dual-Intensity Eyeshadow in Kari all over the lid.
I have been on the hunt for this shadow for such a long time and finally found it in London and together with MAC Uninterrupted, this is my perfect eye shadow.
Can't recommend it enough - the most perfect subtle everyday shadow.
For definition and brightness I added a bit of brown kohl on the upper inner rim and nude kohl on the waterline - both from H&M.
I have never really been a huge fan of the L'Oreal Volume Million Lashes range, but the Volume Million Lashes Fatale had just launched, when I was in London, and I really liked the look of the brush, so I decided to give it a go.
And I do actually like it! It is not the best mascara, I have tried, but it is probably in top 5. It gives a lot of volume and it is really black.

Lips
I have been loving the Dior Lip Maximizer recently - I know, that there is very different opinions on this one, but I do feel like it makes a difference and make my lips look plumper.
I have been applying over a lip liner or using it alone - but for this look I used Make Up Forever Aqua lip pencil in 15c
So these are the make products, that have really stood out to me the past few months, and that gets my stamp of approval.
What products are your stand out right now?
