January is my favourite beauty month.  Every beauty blogger and vlogger shares favourites of the past year and I spend Xmas holidays waching their videos and compiling endless beauty lists of new beauty products that I try not to buy need. Here are my faves. I considered only new products that came out in 2015 or that I tried out this year for the first time. I still have some old favourites products that I still happily use from the past years.

MAKE-UP:

Best Primer: Olaz Total Effects Pore Minimizer. It’s not actually a primer but I discovered that it works so good as a make up base. It’s lightly tinted (but you don’t even notice) but it really creates the best canvas for foundation and make up.

Best Tinted Moisturizer: Caudalie VinoPerfect Radiance Tinted Moisturizer. I used this one during the Summer months almost every day. It’s light coverage but it lasts long. And it was such a good feeling not feeling anything on your face when it’s 30° outside.

Best Brow Liner: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz. It’s not available in Italy and I bought it on an UK site (which means it becomes an expensive product). But my brows say thank you every day.

Best Mascara: Lancôme Volume-à-Porter. I love all Lancome’s mascara, it’s my to-go brand when it comes to mascaras. This one came out in 2015 ant it’s perfect mascara for everyday.

Best Palette: Nars x Steven Klein Cheek Studio Palette. I already raved about this palette. It just looks too good. And all the products inside are great. Hello my new Laguna friend.

Best Blush: Hourglass Lighting Blush Palette. I bought this blush palette last January after last year’s beauty binge watching. And guys Hourglass blushes are a dream, I tell you!

Best Nude Lipsticks: Lancôme Rouge in Love. I’m not a bold lipstick lover (er… I know). And this light buttery formula is my to-go lipstick. I have 3 colours and love all.

SKINCARE:

[comfort zone] Sublime Skin Serum. I reviewed this one here and I think I can’t live without.. It really plumps up my skin, so happy to have found it!

Diego dalla Palma The Boosters Vitamina C. It’s an Italian product (sorry! I don’t know if you can find it in other countries) but it was definitely my best serum-booster of the year.

Alpha Gold Liquid Gold with Glycolic Acid. Chemical exfoliation is my best tip to have great skin. And this product really makes a difference that you can see each time from night to day.

HAIR:

Oribe Texturizing Spray: Oh hello my absolute fave. No other dry shampoo compares to you. Ever.

davines VOLU/hair mist: Volume, oh volume. I so much need volume in my hair. This one gives some, thank you.
