Hello August! Another month,
another monthly favourites post! Yes we are finished with July and going in to August.
July was a very hot month, the sun was shining and the birds where tweeting,
and the royal baby was born. As far as new products are concerned I have loved
a lot of summery things, if that makes sense?
First up dry shampoo, a pound land buy and not a single regret.
I was always hesitant of buying dry shampoo as I never got the idea and love
behind it but now I don’t look back. This little bottle of wisdom is great for
those days when it is hot but you don’t want to put yourself through the
heartache of washing your hair and drying it ECT. A spray of this and you are
good as gold. The shampoo also smells amazing, and leaves your hair feeling non
greasy and looking fresh.
I hate slapping on heavy amounts of make up when the sun is
out, because it just melts off my face like ice cream. So, the best thing to
use is a BB Cream and I love this one from MUA the coverage is medium and with
concealer on top can cover you up. It lasts all day on my skin and does the job
of a bb cream, it is also very purse friendly at only £4 a bottle and seems to
match my skin perfect unlike many MUA products which don’t.
Sticking with that sweaty theme, I have used up so much deodorant
this month that I am in shock of how many bottles I have thrown away. This one
by Nivea though has to be my favourite and I constantly repurchase it no matter
what the weather or the price. It does a great job at keeping me going for hours
and doesn't leave any of them disgusting white marks under my arms.
Also from Nivea, I have used this lip balm that helps with
protecting your lips from the sunshine. I am always the one that puts spf all
over my face and leaves my lips bare so they crack and go horrid or smear the
spf over which makes it look like I am a cricket player. This however, is my solution
to preventing both those tragedies. It leaves a clear finish to your lips and
protects against any harmful rays from the sun, it is also a great base for
under any lip products that you might want to put on over.
And last but not least, a make up sponge. Which is my holy
grail make up product, forget spending tons on the beauty blender when you can
just use this simple sponge to get the same effect and finish. I find that it
works best when it is damp as the foundation is much easier to blend and move
around. I bought a big bag of the sponges from the pound shop, but they are
also available to buy from super drug and boots.
I also have a summer ‘tune’ if that makes sense! I have been
listening non-stop to the new Miley Cyrus song ‘We Can’t Stop’ it has had mixed
reviews but I just love it.
