END OF SUMMER BEAUTY FAVOURITES

Hello everyone! Seeing as the end of August is near and summer is already drawing to a close, i thought why not do a little summer recap of all the beauty related products i have been loving over the summer. I have mixed feelings about summer being over so soon, as on one hand i love summer but i also love autumn equally as much, so it is very bitter-sweet. That being said i am super excited to start buying all the fall scented candles ha.


Kicking things off with the lip gloss i have been obsessed with through-out the whole of summer, it is literally one of those glosses you can pair a little amount with pretty much any nude lip. The shade is the most beautiful pink/beige toned nude with gold shimmer throughout, the formula is also super hydrating non-sticky and long lasting on the lips. The gen nude range from bareMinerals comes fully stocked in a huge variety of shades/finishes retailing for around the £17 mark.

So i actually did a full first impression/review post on this particular palette, which you can catch up on here if you haven't done so already. Ever since i first tried this palette out, i have not been able to put it down and even though i finally got my hands on the Urban Decay Naked Heat palette, i still keep going back to this one and even more so the shade deserted (sandy caramel beige), as it is literally the most perfect crease/all over lid shade for everyday. The texture/pigmentation of these shadows are insanely beautiful, soft and like to dream to blend out. Even though this palette is slightly pricey at £28 for only five eyeshadows, i personally think it is worth every penny and you can create so many different types of matte looks from the diversity of the palette.

When it comes down to mascara i have made it no secret that i am all for drugstore mascaras, especially if we are talking L'Oréal or Maybelline and in this case for the majority of the summer it has been L'Oréal's latest mascara launch. The think i am most obsessed with about this mascara is how it lengthens and adds volume to your lashes at the same time, which is quite rare as you usually get one or the other. I also did a full first impression/review post on this mascara, if you didn't catch it first time round catch it here.

garnier ultimate blends coconut water shampoo and conditioner
I am that girl who's hair goes all Monica from Friends frizzy when they go to Barbados in summer/if i don't use hair products designed to keep frizz at bay. This particular shampoo and conditioner duo from Garnier has been such a hair saviour for me, as it not only keeps my hair frizz free but it also keeps it super hydrated without being weighed down. I also love how this combination seems to keep my hair looking fresher for longer, than many others have done in the past.


Summer isn't summer without something than/bronze related and towards the end of summer i decided to switch up my self-tanner from the regular one i use. I love how golden yet natural this tan looks on my skin, as well as giving that healthy looking glow from within and how it gradually gets darker over the days, for a longer looking tan. I first talked about this product in a recent new drugstore favourites, where i also talked about the #insta range by Rimmel and how much i have been loving pretty much the whole range, especially the medium duo contour stick and the translucent pressed powder. The L'Oréal sublime bronzer gradual self-tan retails for £6.99 and the Rimmer #Insta range products start from £4.99.
