July Beauty Favourites!

Hey beaut's!

Hmmm how can I sum up July....Oh I know, hot, sticky, sweaty oh and did I mention HOT!!!! Wow this never ending heatwave is actually insane, we did finally get a storm and a little bit of rain in Norfolk over the weekend but literally it's been steaming hot! 
Firstly this month I've been using my Barry M Mist & Fix Makeup Setting Spray like it's going out of fashion, as I said the heat has been crazy and this little beauty has kept my makeup in place and looking fresh for a lot longer in the heat! Honestly beaut's if you haven't tried this setting spray then I urge you to treat yourself to one, it's my all time favourite setting spray and I even prefer it to the expensive ones I've tried!
The Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette has made it's way into my monthly favourites AGAIN!! I just cant help but be obsessed with this palette, the quality is phenomenal and those peachy vibes are so pretty! I've been using the shades Just Peachy, Candied Peach and Nectar all together to create such a summery peachy look and teamed with winged liner...oh my I just cant cope! 
Keeping with the heatwave theme is my sun protection of choice, I've been using the Hawaiian Tropic Ultra Radiance sun cream in SPF 30 everyday when I've been out and about because I cant stress enough how important it is to use sun SPF! I particularly like this one because it contains shimmer particles within the cream so it leaves my skin so glowy and radiant and a major plus is that it doesn't feel sticky or greasy, woohoo!
Next up is the Revolution Soph Lipstick in the shade Cake! I have a full review on this HERE if you fancy it but I've basically been using this lippie so much since I bought it, it's the perfect pink toned nude which works with any outfit, makeup look or occasion and it has a super creamy satin finish which is so comfortable to wear, I love it!
My final favourites this month is this little nail polish duo by Barry M! The shades In A Heart Beat and Pinktail go hand in hand with each other, In A Heart Beat is a gorgeous pinky-coral perfect for the summer and Pinktail is also a pinky -coral bit it has a stunning gold duo-chrome shift to it. Pinktail takes a lot of building up to get full opacity but popping it over the top of In A Heart Beat makes it look fully opaque after one coat, arhh I love it!

What have you been loving this month beaut's? I'd love to know!

July Beauty Favourites!

Hey beaut's!

It's monthly favourites time....I cant quite believe another month has whizzed past already, it's crazy how quick the time goes! I must admit I'm kind of over Summer now, I've never really been a Summer girl to be honest, I'm all about Autumn and Winter, how about you? 
This month I have a whole heap of new finds that have quickly turned into favourites, firstly I have to talk all about my beautiful Urban Decay Naked Heat Palette! Now I know this is a bit of cheat because I've only been using the Heat Palette for just over a week now but I couldn't not feature it because it's the best thing I've put on my eyeballs in July hands down! It's crammed full of stunning warm tones that will see me through the rest of Summer and then the Autumn and the quality is amazing, check out my first impressions and swatches HERE beaut's! For lips I've been obsessed with the Kylie Jenner Liquid Lipstick in Candy K, this is such a stand out liquid lipstick for me because it isn't super drying like the other liquid lippies I have, it lasts like nothing else - I'm talking all day through eating, drinking, kissing and the colour is the prettiest pinky nude which is right up my street. Base makeup wise the Joan Collins First Base Foundation teamed with the PUR Skin Perfecting Foundation Brush is like a match made in heaven for me. The foundation is just beautiful, it has a medium coverage, it smooths over my pores and fine lines whilst still feeling super lightweight and comfortable on my skin, it has a natural finish with a glow that never looks heavy or cakey and I've not experienced any clinging to my dry patches either, it literally perfect for me! The PUR oval brush though (insert love heart eyes emoji), it's literally the best thing I've ever blended my foundation in with, I'm talking flawless blending in about 5 seconds, it's incredible! My final favourite this month is the Rimmel #Insta Fix & Go Makeup Priming & Setting Spray, I love a good makeup spray and Rimmel's offering keeps things set and looking cake-free all day, I love it!

July Beauty Favourites ♥

Hey beaut's!

Its that time again.... Monthly favourites time! Wow hasn't this month gone quick, I know I say that every month but I cant quite believe how quick these months are whizzing past, it will be Christmas before we know it he he! This month I have a mix of a couple of old faithfuls and some new things that I've been using that I'm in absolute love with.

Firstly this month I have been obsessed with the new Tanya Burr Birthday Suit Eyeshadow Palette, I must admit when I first bought this I wasn't expecting that much because I have an older Tanya Burr palette that I was really unimpressed with but this one I love, maybe shes changed the formula now as these eyeshadow's are buttery soft, nicely pigmented and easy to use! My favourite shade is Cocoa Sugar which is a highly shimmery deep bronze, I've been wearing this alone all over my lids recently and just blending out the crease and I'm done, it's so pretty.

Sticking with eyes my next favourite is the Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara, I've featured this in a favourites before but after recently getting a new tube I'm head over heels in love with it again. It just gives me so much length, separation and curve to my lashes but also volumises and defines at the same time without any clumping or smudging at all, I absolutely love it and would highly recommend it if your looking for a new high street mascara! 

I bought the travel size Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray a little while ago as I had been wanting to try it for so long but never got round to it, so I figured the travel size was the best way to start and I love it! It definitely keeps my makeup looking better for longer and set in place for longer and it also helps with keeping shine at bay! I'll be reviewing this in full soon so keep your eyes peeled!

For nails this month it's no surprised that I've been reaching for my favourite Barry M formula Coconut Infusion, I had been using the shade Aloha a lot but I've switched things up during July and started using Surfboard a pretty pastel dusty pink, borderline lilac shade, I love it and it's perfect for Summer!

My Mum and Dad kindly bought me a bottle of perfume back from there holiday's and went for YSL's Black Opium (good choice Mum), surprisingly before my Mum and Dad bought me this I had never smelt it before so I had no idea what it would be like, but I love it! It's definitely a musky, sexy, warm scent perfect for the winter months really but I just cant resist using it at the moment because I love it sooo much. Also look how stunning that bottle is! 

My last favourite this month is the gorgeous Soap & Glory Pulp Friction Foamy Fruity Body Scrub! This scrub is like no other, it literally foams and lathers up just like shower gel as I'm rubbing it all over your body, its amazing and actually so much fun to use! It gently exfoliates too without being too abrasive so it's a joy to use on my sensitive skin!

What have you been loving this month beaut's? I'd love to know!

July Beauty Favourites ♥


Hey beaut's!

Its that time again.... Monthly favourites time!!! I know we all say this every month but honestly I cant believe how quick the months are going, its crazy...  It will be Christmas again before we know it haha, woop woop! Anywhoooo today I thought I would share with you all the makeup and beauty products that I've been loving throughout July, so here goes....

Makeup Revolution
I have simply been obsessed with Makeup Revolution this month, last month and probably the month before that ha ha, I honestly couldn't choose one favourite makeup item for this post because I've been using so many of their products on a daily basis in my everyday routine. I have particularly been blown away by their lipsticks, Rebel with a Cause being my absolute favourite, the Flawless Eyeshadow Palette has also been used more or less everyday since it arrived on my door mat, the Cover and Conceal Palette has me in concealer heaven and the Blush and Contour Palette in Sugar Rush needs to be on every ones wish list because its stunning! The quality and value for money is seriously good and as you can tell I'm going Makeup Revolution mad over here ha ha.

Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation in 100 Ivory
I think Rimmels Wake Me Up foundation is always going be one of my ultimate favourite foundations and one I will always keep going back too because it's just so blooming good! I hadn't actually used Wake Me Up in a while because I've been testing other foundations and CC creams but as I was looking through my makeup collection it was just looking at me asking to be used again hehe, I've actually been using it everyday since and have been reminded of just how beautiful it looks on the skin, it's just so natural looking, dewy, lightweight, radiant, great on dry skin types like myself and is perfect to use all year round, it's just amazing!

My Current Nail Loves...
Ive been going through a real girlie stage with my nails this past month and have been loving all things pink whether they are pastel, bright or sparkly I have just been obsessed! I actually received the two Nail Girls polishes in beauty boxes, the base/top coat came in a Glossy box and the dusky baby pink shade called Nude Pink came in a Love Me Beauty box and if I'm being honest I had never heard of the Nail Girls brand before but I have now found out why they are priced at £13.50 a bottle... because the formula is brilliant, Nude Pink is so creamy and slightly on the thicker side compared to your average nail polish and seems to dry opaque and shiny after just one coat which is really impressive, it's also an extremely hard wearing nail polish brand too and takes ages to chip. And to add abit of glitz and sparkle, I've been using Makeup Revolutions Streetcar Desire as a top coat just on my accent nail, I'm so in love with this nail combination at the moment.

Prada Candy Florale Perfume
I only received this Prada Candy Floral Perfume in May and I have nearly used up the entire 50ml bottle already, it's just the most beautiful Summer scent and I find it so nice to wear from day to day. Candy Florale is actually inspired by an imaginary flower that smells like candy or a bouquet of flowers standing on the counter of an ice cream shop in Italy, so basically think of a light peony floral scent with a touch of sweetness and that your scent right there...Arrhh sweetness and floral, whats not to love! I have done a full review of the Prada Candy Florale Perfume HERE if you like to take a peek beaut's but if not take my word for it, this perfume smells insanely good and the bottle ain't half bad either.

Mitchum Advanced Control Roll On in Waterlily
Now I know this is very random, I don't think I've ever seen a roll on in someones favourites before but I just couldn't leave it out. I picked the Mitchum roll on up in Superdrug on a complete whim, it was on offer a few months back so it automatically just got thrown into my basket and after using it I certainly wont be straying from this Mitchum brand anytime soon, it just keeps me nice a fresh all day and I can smell the Waterlily scent (which is incredible by the way) all throughout the day too, it doesn't leave me with horrible white marks on my clothes and you get 100ml's instead of the usual 50mls that roll ons usually have, yes it is slightly more expensive when it isn't on offer but its totally worth, trust me its amazing!

Garnier Ultimate Blends Shampoo and Conditioner
Ive been growing my hair out for a while now and leaving it longer between cuts so it often feels dry and looks abit dull, but those days are now gone because the Garnier Ultimate Blends Shampoo and Conditioner seem to work wonders on my hair, the opulent formula leaves my hair feeling moisturised, healthy, shiny and smelling lovely, which is everything I want from shampoo and conditioner hehe. If you havent tried these out yet then I'd highly recommend them beaut's!
