A lot of you asked me to do this post on twitter so of course, i am now doing it! the blog post that is. Yeah.
Anyways, i have a few summer beauty essentials.
I looooove having a light manicure to top off my (somewhat) tanned skin and so thats why i included the two nail polishes - i looooves Essie and the Barry M Confetti topcoat is a gorgeous subtle effect - perfect for summertime! I also included an avon base coat because if you're like me right now, my nails are breaking like crazy!
Up next is the Urban decay 24/7 glide on eyeliners - I did some swatches of them...
The greeny color is called 'Junkie' and the bronze color is called 'Scorch'. Both colours are super pigmented and have a lovely shimmer to them.
I also chose to include my Clarins eye quartet because the colours are perfect for all seasons - there's a cranberry kinda color and i absolutely LOVE it - a slick of that on the lids and low lash line and some mascara and you're good to go!
I also included a Revlon lip butter in color tutti frutti, because well i loves the revlon lip butters as you all know, and also because Tutti Frutti is such a gorgeous coral summer color and i love it, i also swatched it for you...
So like i mentioned above i loooove the lip butters, you can see how moisturising they are just by the swatched picture - Love!
Now onto skin and hair, i have a few summer essentials...
First off i chose a Jurlique purely bright facial mist, because it smells lovely (dont ask me to describe it, im useless ITS IMPOSSIBLE TO DESCRIBE!) and of course it's cooling. I spray this in the heat of scotland (theres something i never thought id say) and it cools me down instantly.
Up next is the Elemis Liquid Layer spf 30. Ive already done a review on this on the blog, but it genuinely is my summer essential - i use this on my face because my face burns like a beeeatch. So spf 30 is essential for my face (i use spf 50 everywhere else) and this is non sticky and non smelly. Bonus!
Next you'll notice im bringing the clay spray in here. Okay so everyone sweats right? theres no such thing as a face deoderant (i dont think) and so all that sweat and horribleness just gets sunk into your skin - use this clayspray once a week and it will bring out all the toxins and impurities and get rid of them for you - handy wee thing.
Last but by no means least, my lifesaver. Everyone's hair gets dry and frazzled in the sun, and mine is no exception so this james brown hair mask has been great for my dry damaged hair. I use this once a week and it sorts my hair out instantly.
I have a few more summer essentials but i narrowed it down as best as i could!
what are your summertime beauty essentials? id love to hear so i can try them out!
