Summer make up




It is essential to change up your make up routine for the summer, especially your base! I thought i would show you what i've been using lately- everything is light and fresh!

Bourjois delice de poudre Bronzing powder is a freaking amazing bronzer from the drug store. I am quite pale so i stay away from this in the winter months but i love to whip this out in summer when i whip my fake tan out (loving the verb whip there i see).
Bourjois rouge edition velvet lip lacquer is also a freaking amazing find from the drug store. A perfect light weight bright summer lip! I recently did a post on this product here.
Maybelline FIT me concealer is perfect for that light weight feel, although it hasn't got the highest coverage (i suggest collection 2000 for that) but still amazing for drug store! It melts into the skin beautifully without messing up your foundation and gliding over dry patches.
Rimmel scandel eyes waterproof khol liner in the nude shade is perfect for opening the eyes and concealing the dark red look of the waterline. There is no need to purchase an expensive nude liner when there's this one on the market!
Gosh defining brow gel isn't the best brow setting gel available but i does a good job at putting them into place and softening them a little, it just doesn't hold them for long!
Sleek blush by 3 Pumpkin is a perfect pop of colour on the cheeks (summer stable). All of the shades are extremely bright yet very pigmented. I especially love this colour palette because mixing and matching the colours can create even more colours! (Loving mixing the orange and pink shade o la la).
I'm sorry to say the No7 fanomenal eye palette isn't available any more (stupid moi for putting it in the picture) the colours are just shimmery goodness (whites, grey and one pink) which i'm sure are easy to find in the summer collections! I've seen them on ebay as well!
The balm schwing liquid eye liner is an eye liner i am shocked to never hear anyone speak of! It is so so so easy to apply because it's a felt tip end yet you get the benefits of a liquid liner because it's super super black. More detailed review coming SOON!
The Balm nude 'tude eye shadow palette is a STAPLE palette of mine, as you can see from the picture it is well (very well) loved. I use this palette everyday and i just love love love love it! I'm not going to babble on but i will say that a review and swatches are coming soon as well!
Clinique Bottom lash mascara is a product you NEED if you're always finding the well 'loved' panda eyes at the end of the day. This mascara does N O T budge. I am telling you it's so so worth every penny. The formula is just flawless and the brush is perfect. I think this might be my favourite product in this post?
Benefit 'they're real' mascara is a product you're probably all heard of before and that's because of how good it is. I would definitely recommend this mascara and i'm still fighting for the remaining product in the tube.
Benefit Brow Zing is amazing. I've had the same product for about a year, used is everyday and haven't seen the end of it. It's doesn't move from your brows all day long and i find the colour selection pretty suitable for all.
Mac Vanilla pigment is the perfect inner corner highlight but also a great high lighter for the cheek bones. It's just gorgeous! Summer summer glow.
Bare minerals original foundation is happily centred in the family of mineral foundation. It's super light weight, it literally feels like you're just swirling only your brush on your face. One thing that is major awesome about this foundation, is how well it can be built up to a higher coverage. It's just perfect for summer!
Bare minerals mineral viel powder is another product which i have no idea why no one ever mentions. It literally looks like skin without caking but setting concealer/foundation flawlessly. This is my all time favourite powder. I even have a back up because i can't live with out it!

That's all folks! Thank you for taking your time to read my blog.

Love,
