Whaaaat its July
already?? Where does the year go? So today I’m going to talk you through my
beauty & random favourites of this month.
First off I have
fallen completely back in love with Benefits Watts up highlighter. I have felt
I have been reaching for this over my mac highlighters. It's a wind up, roll on
highlighter that instantly adds light and glow to the skin. It is a
very flattering shade and is easily bendable and I think it’s a beautiful
summer product. And let’s be serious how cute is the packaging- it is benefit
after all.
Next I have been
loving as always my real techniques powder brush. I have a few real techniques
brushes and have loved them. Then I purchased the powder brush- and never
realised how amazed I could be at a simple makeup brush. Honestly I can’t
recommend it enough it evenly applies my powder perfectly over my foundation
and doesn’t make it cakey in the slightest.
This
month I picked up Maybeline’s Colour tattoo in on and on bronze. I’d heard
loads about this product and now I understand why. First off it was £5 which
totally surprised me- due to its high quality. It works amazingly as a base for
eyeshadow or works just as well by its self for simpler makeup days. This month
I have been reaching for this A LOT. I can’t wait to pick up some more shades
of this product.
The
last makeup product I have been loving this month is L’Oreal Lumi Magique
primer. This primer comes in a bottle with a pump dispenser. The
texture of the product is creamy and it is white in colour and what I really
like about this product is that it immediately gives a glowy finish to the
skin. It creates a great base for foundation and I really can’t fault this
product.
When I was on holiday
I accidently left my benefit moisturiser there so when I came home I had to
repurchase one as my skin was really drying out. I didn’t have enough money to
repurchase benefit Moisturiser so I picked up Olay Complete Care moisturiser. This
is definitely
the best drug store moisturiser- it completely cleared up my dry skin on my
forehead and leaves my skin feeling silky soft.
My favourite hair
products this month has been L'Oréal Paris Studio Matt & Messy salt
spray. It creates beachy waves without using heat and was my saviour when I was
on holiday. It’s shine free which leaves your hair looking matt and doesn’t
leave it feeling greasy which I feel many hair products do. I just apply to my
hair when damp then scrunch my hair and Voila
beach waves.
I’ve been a huge
passenger fan for a few years so was super excited when he brought out his new
album “Whispers” in June. I love every track- and each song
has a beautiful story which Mikes signs beautifully. My favourites are “27” and
“Riding to New York.” I would describe the album as indie rock with a soft edge. Check it out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HbqjD3rQcMs
My favourite YouTube
channel this month has been https://www.youtube.com/user/sunbeamsjess
I only recently found her channel and have been binge watching all her videos.
I love her fashion sense and her simple makeup looks.
Hope you enjoyed this post. What
have been your July favourites? ❤
I have the Benefit Watt's up and it's so pretty! Sometimes I use it on my eyelids ;)

I have just done a July Favourites post too! Looks like we both like MAC make up too. :) I definitely agree with you about Passenger, his voice is so different but really good! Katie xx

I have recently bought the trial size of the Watt's Up highlighter. It is a gorgeous colour! I wish the trial came with the blender too though, it would make it much easier to blend!
