Summer Makeup I Cant Wait To Put Back On My Face!

Hey beaut's!

We nearing the end of Spring and soon Summer will be in full swing, not only does that mean hot weather (we hope), summer holidays and festivals but it means we get to wear that Summery makeup we've been missing during the cooler months!

One product of mine or should I say palette that I cant wait to whack on my eyeballs is my Too Faced Sweet Peach Eyeshadow Palette! I must admit my palette is very well used and well loved because I do use this a lot all year round but I shall be using it most days during this summer because it's just... peachy! Those peachy vibes scream Summer to me and I've said it before but I'll happily say it again - the quality of Too Faced eyeshadows is phenomenal! If I cant be bothered with eyeshadow work when it's hot I like to whack on a cream shadow with my finger, the best I've tried that can withstand the warmer weather are the Maybelline Color Tattoos, these babies are so easy to use and wear and the staying power is so good, my favourite shade is Pink Gold!

When I think of a foundation I want to wear in the Summer it has to be MAC's Face and Body! I think this foundation is pretty much a staple in most makeup lovers collection during this time of the year, it's literally as light as water on the skin, it holds up well on my skin when it hot, it's dewy and healthy looking and even though the coverage is very light it builds up so well until you get the coverage you desire! Sticking with base makeup I like to go from a matte bronzer to a more glowy bronzer in the Summer, lets face it the summer months are all about getting that bronzed goddess look and the Too faced Sweetheart Bronzer does just that, it creates a bronzy glow without being super glittery, I love it! For cheeks a favourite of mine is the Peach Party Blush in Apricot Jam by Soap and Glory, this is the second one of these I've had over the years because it's just so pretty! It leaves a peachy glow to the cheeks which is just so dreamy, I cant recommend it enough!   

I must admit I'm not all that adventurous when it comes to lipstick colours but this Summer I'm determined to step outside my comfort zone of nudes and mauve's and go for something brighter like Soap and Glory's Sexy Mother Pucker Matte Lip in Fire Cracker and Makeup Revolutions Rose Gold Lipstick in Red Carpet! I've been inspired by Taylor Swift's trademark red lip recently so I've dug out one of my favourite red's to channel my inner Taylor, I mean why the hell not hey! 

Finally setting spray... I mean we cant go a Summer without one can we! My 'go-to' is Barry M's Mist & Fix, I have lost count the amount of times I've repurchased this stuff because I'm totally obsessed with it, it does exactly what it says on the bottle and sets my makeup in place for so much longer and works great in humid weather! I also love that Barry M have a matte version as well as the dewy version, at £4.99 a bottle you cant go wrong really!

My Favourite Foundations For The Summer!

Hey beaut's!

During the Summer months I love a good lightweight foundation that's going to hold up well in the warmer weather and still have that dewy look to it. I know matte foundations are preferred by lots during the warmer weather but I have dryer skin so something more dewy always works best for me so today I thought I'd talk all about my favourites!

Rimmel foundations are incredible, their so affordable but amazing in quality too! Their Match Perfection Foundation has been re-purchased by me countless times, it has a weightless, smooth texture and medium-buildable coverage that blends with the skins real tone instead of masking it, it literally evens everything out whilst making me look completely radiant, I love it. Another favourite of mine from Rimmel in the Summer is their 9 in1 BB Cream. This stuff is incredible, it feels light enough to be some sort of skincare product - you literally cant feel it on your skin at all, it minimises the appearance of pores, smooths, brightens, conceals and covers, contains SPF 25, lasts all day and is literally heaven in a bottle! 

Keeping with foundations from the drugstore L'Oreal's Lumi Magique is lovely, it's great for dryer skin types like mine and it's light infusing which means it gives luminosity to the skin and really adds a beautiful subtle glow which I love in the Summer. The formula is very light weight, silky soft, blends into the skin well and provides hydration all day which is perfect for me. Moving onto something slightly more pricey - MAC's Face and Body! I think this foundation is pretty much a staple in most makeup lovers collection, it's literally as light as water on the skin, super dewy and healthy looking and even though the coverage is very light it builds up so well until you get the coverage you desire, perfect if you've got a tan and just want to even things out slightly! Finally theres Joan Collins First Base Foundation. This is my current go to foundation at the moment, 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!
