July Favourites

I can´t believe tomorrow is already going to be August! Time goes by so fast!

This month for my base I have been loving the Nars Tinted Moisturizer in Alaska, since I have had a few breakouts the Makeup Forever Full Cover concealer in 06 was a must, this stuff is amazing it covers everything! In July most days I skipped blush, Say What?!? I used mainly Nars Laguna Bronzer, but in the days I did use blush I used Nars Gina. 

When it comes to eye makeup I used the Bobbi Brown Sand Palette ( review here) and Mac Teddy eyeliner. For lips I have been obsessed with Mac Patisserie not a very summery colour I know! But when I´m feeling something bright I reached for Mac Lustering or Ysl Gloss Volupté in 206.

The Summer Lip Edit

It seems Summer finally has arrived, even though the other night was pouring rain!

But as I´m typing this the sun is out, so I thought it was the perfect day to write about my favourite lip colours for summer, in case you couldn´t tell there are mainly hot pink!

The Lipsticks:

-A few months ago The Body Shop released new shades from their Colour Crush Collection my favourites are the shades 14( fuchsia hot pink), 15 ( warm hot pink) and 18 ( coral-strawberry), yes I´m terrible at describing colours! They are quite sheer but you can build them up, perfect for Summer

- Mac Flat Out Fabulous ( Hot Pink with a purple undertone) ( It´s a Retro Matte finish so you will need to exfoliate your lips and loads of lip balm before you apply it!)

- Mac Lustering ( Strawberry colour) It´s a luster finish so is a little more sheer and moisturising.

- Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in 44 La Diva ( LE) ( Bright Pink with purple undertones)

- Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet in 06 Pink Pong ( Fushia Pink) it dries Matte

 The Glosses

- Chanel Glossimer 179 Murmure 

- Ysl  Gloss Volupté 206
