It's time for the next instalment of my Faves & Fails and this time around we're going to talk about Milani Products! As always the products I deem fails aren't necessarily going to be fails for everyone as we all have different skin types and have to deal with different skin issues, meaning products apply differently on each of us. Therefore I'm not saying they are terrible products, I'm just saying they don't work for me.

I'm going to combine my first two products in the faves section becasue what I basically what to say is this...Milani KNOWS lip products! I am absolutely obsessed with both the Milani Amore Matte Lip Creams and the Milani Color Statement Moisture Matte Lipsticks - and I mean obsessed like I want every single shade! Both of these products are non-drying despite being matte, they are pigmented and they are not at all patchy. I also love the Milani Moisture Lock Oil Infused Lip Treatments but I'm not going to go on about them as if I include everything I love we'll be here all day.

Next up in my Milani Faves are these Everyday Eyes Eyeshadow Collections. I particularly enjoy the Earthy Elements Collection as it is the most warm toned with a beautiful orange shade. These contain a good range of stunning shades which are all very pigmented and creamy in formula. The shimmers in particularly are beautiful and all the shades blend well. I think these little palettes are great for travelling as it is a quick and easy, but still glam, look in one palette.

The final favorite I am going to mention are the Milani Baked Blushes. If you haven't tried these already then you NEED to buy on right now. These are the prettiest blushes I have ever used. As I said Milani KNOWS Lip products and I have to say they also KNOW blush! Both these and the Milani Flower Powder Blushes are stunning but these ones are my favorites. There is something for every skin tone and a lot of them are universally flattering. They have a really pretty, blendable and glowy formula.

Next up are my Milani Fails and the first thing that doesn't hit the mark for me is the Milani Conceal and Perfect Foundation. I LOVE this foundation is has a really luxe, high coverage formula but it just doesn't come in a light enough shade for me. I know they released a new lighter shade but even that one is still slightly too dark for me. If they bring out a light enough shade for my paler than pale skin it will definitely become a favorite VERY quickly. My other fail is the Make It Dewy Setting Spray. I feel like this would be INCREDIBLE for dry skin but on my naturally oily skin it just makes my makeup slide right off and separate.

Now for my Milani Wishlist - the products I've got my eye on and want to pick up ASAP. First up are the Strobe Light Instant Glow Powders. These look so pretty and we all know I'm absolutely obsessed with anything highlighting related! Which brings me on to the Contour and Highlight Cream & Liquid Duos. Again these look really pretty and I've heard really good things about them. If and when I do pick them up I'll definitely do a review for you all.
