random january beauty favourites

The first month of the year is coming to a close. There have certainly been some high points and low points over the last several weeks, but my fingers are crossed that the month of February will be better. Since January is almost over, it seemed appropriate to highlight my beauty favourites from the month. These are the products that I found myself reaching for most. 

All of the products shown will be familiar to those who read the creation of beauty is art. on a semi-regular basis. Each and every one has been reviewed or mentioned in a previous post. Here is a breakdown of each beauty favourite.

• Rare Beauty: Find Comfort Hydrating Hand Cream. The first favourite on this list is one that is also an essential during the winter months. The cool winter temperatures can be hard on the skin, so it is nice to have a hand cream that works well. Though the Find Comfort Hydrating Hand Cream is on the more expensive side, it was kindly gifted to me for Christmas, so I am able to make the most of this favourite. This product has a nice light scent and absorbs quickly into the skin. The fast absorption time makes this an ideal product to use throughout the day.
• Ariana Grande: Mod Vanilla. There are a lot of different perfumes in my collection and certain ones call to me at different times. It is Mod Vanilla from Ariana Grande that has been speaking to me the most lately. I love the warm vanilla scent, especially now that the weather is colder. It makes this winter weather seem a little less frosty.
• Wet n Wild: Fantasy Makers Eye and Face Palette in Poisoned Forest. This next favourite was released in the fall as part of a Halloween themed collection, but it has been an absolute must in my collection ever since. During the fall months, my focus was on the earthy browns. During the month of December, the red and green colours were suitable for all sorts of festive creations. Now that it is January, the shimmer shades have been most used. There is a light green shimmer that I have been applying all over the lid for a quick and easy makeup look and there is also a burgundy shimmer that adds colour in an instant. This is such a beautiful drugstore eyeshadow palette. 
• Revolution: Pink Seduction Highlighter. This highlighter was included in the Revolution advent calendar that I opened this holiday season. It is so shimmery and gorgeous. This essentially works as a blush and highlight in one, because the pink colour comes through quite nicely. It leaves the skin glowy and fresh looking, making it an ideal choice for the month of January. The winter months tend to make my skin dull and dry, so this is a must.
• Essence: Jumbo Eye Crayon. Another advent calendar favourite is from Essence. This Jumbo Eye Crayon comes in a beautiful golden shimmer shade. It works perfectly as a base or applied to the inner corner. I have a weakness for shimmers in general and I love that this quickly and easily incorporates shimmer into any makeup look. 
• Revolution: Blush Bomb in Cute Pink. With the colder weather here (it is currently snowing outside of my window) there are different products that tend to be used most often. For instance, cream and liquid blushes are ideally suited for the winter season. There are a few that I have really been enjoying lately, but the Blush Bomb from Revolution included in the previously mentioned advent calendar, is a standout. I love the warm berry colour.
