At the end of May my blog turned one year old! Yey.I thought this provided a good opportunity to pick the top five favorite products I've discovered as a result of my blog. I know,only 5 seems ridiculous but I wanted to pick out the stand out products of the past 12 months! Ok so how does a beauty blogger decide on their top five products? Basically these are the products that I use a lot and enjoy wearing or products that have become staples of my everyday makeup routine. Plus some of them are just amazing bargains that you wouldn't expect to be as good as they are.
Five
Barbara Daly Nail Polish in Boulevard
Barbara Daly Nail Polish in Boulevard
I love this polish, I think its the prettiest polish I own. It is a vibrant pink color with very fine glitter. Its durable, chip resistant, costs £3 and I can't stop looking at my nails when I'm wearing it!
Four
Collection 2000's Cream Puff Lip Cream in Cotton candy
Collection 2000's Cream Puff Lip Cream
I think that the Collection 2000 Cream Puff Lip Creams are the perfect lip product. The matte finish is super flattering, long lasting and transfer proof.The Cream Puffs are also moisturising and kind to lips. At £2.99 they are an amazing bargain.
Three
Benefit Browzings
In third place is the most expensive item on the list, Benefit's Browzings. Priced at £22.50 this is definitely at the top end of affordable however, I have used this every day since I was given it a Benefit bloggers event. I can not believe the impact paying attention to your brows has on your face and I never leave the house without applying Browzings.

Two
NYC Natural Matte Foundation
I feel like I mention this foundation a lot on my blog but I love this product. A lot of bloggers wouldn't look twice at this foundation because of its £2.99 price tag but it is a great product. It is a very long lasting medium coverage foundation and I think its an amazing bargain.
One
George Volume Lash Mascara
George Volume Lash Mascara
A relatively new find but oh my goodness this mascara is amazing! It costs £2.50 and makes my lashes look super long and volumised. It really is a beauty secret just sat in the aisle of Asda waiting for bloggers to discover and get excited about. If you try anything off this list, give the Volume Lash Mascara a go. I don't think you'll regret it.
