July favourites // 2018 // Higher End

Hello darlings

Today's post is my July favourite,s do people still enjoy reading monthly favourites? I know i still love reading them, do people find them a little old news now? let me know in the comments! This month i've been trying new products and have done a LOT of shopping, oops! Don't tell Will. 


I'm really enjoying this hair cream i'm not usually one for using hair products i tend to wash my hair put heat protector on it an leave it. A top it up with dry shampoo during the week but that's pretty much it, i'm not very good at doing things with my hair, i'm much better at makeup. But since i had my hair cut i've been trying more products. I picked this up on clearance for about 89p, crazy! considering full price its £8.23, i think its because its in the old packaging. It gives me natural waves that last till i brush them out, its great because it means i don't have to use heat on my hair.

Nip and Fab Glycolic Cleansing Pads, £14.95. (Currently half price at £7.48)!)
I'm not if i've mentioned these pads in a favourites post before, i'm pretty sure i have as they are my holy grail. I love how these make my skin feel, they are a little more expensive than i normally pay but i heard so many great reviews on them and i'm so glad i purchased them and this is probably my fourth pot?
This is the first liquid highlighter i have purchased. I have a cream and LOTS of powder ones but not any liquid ones. These are the type you mix into your foundation or use as a stand alone highlight. Giving you more of a natural look. This Gold Euphoric is super pretty and i'm really enjoy using it on more natural makeup days. I need to try more from the collection. 

Mac Prep and Prime, (full price £22.50)
I only have a sample of this which i've nearly used up so i need to pick up a full size one. I got this free when i bought one of the Mac lip kits. This is so good, i'm not usually one to remember to use a primer but this month i have to wear it everyday in this heat! This leave my skin feeling so good and an excellence base for my makeup and it keeps it n place all day! 

Morphe 35 Taupe Palette, £23.00. (On offer for £14 on Beauty Bay)
Lastly my newest palette to add to my collection, it is the Morphe 35 Taupe Palette. I've only had this for just over a week but i couldn't not include it! Beauty Bay is discounting Morphe as they are opening their on site and store in England so Beauty Bay has the 'break up sale', which i took full advantage off! I've wanted this palette for a long time, it is filled with the shades that i wear daily, i think taupe and gold suit me the best. I buy so many warm palettes hoping that they will suite me but i don't think they do at least not all the time, but cool tone bronzes and browns do. 

I'd love to know what are some of your July favourites? How is is August soon!?!

July Favourites 2014

Hello darlings!


Here are my July favourites 2014. There has been quite a few items/products I have been loving this month. A couple of makeup products, skin care and other random favourites. I hope you enjoy!

  
First I’ll start with Skin care.
There have been two products especially this month that i have been loving which are:
Nivea Primer/ Moisturiser: I have to admit I haven’t use this the whole of July but I’ve loved it so much I had to include it. I found it to be brilliant; I love the fact that I do not have to wait ages for it to absorb into my skin which is brilliant as I’m usually short of time in the morning. It made my foundation look so much better and last longer, also made me skin super soft. It basically did everything it claimed to.
Hot Cloth Cleanser, Superdrug Own Brand: I have raved about this several times (link) Its rich, creamy, doesn't dry out my skin and removes all my makeup so easily. I have been using this daily and I’ll probably continue throughout August too.


Makeup:
Eyeko Eyeliner: I got this free and in Glamour magazine and I am so glad I did! At first I was a little wary as I don’t tend to use makeup I get in magazines but Its amazing, its so easy to apply, stays on all day and its just so wonderful. I will definitely be re-purchasing when I runs out.
Naked Basics: This is my all-time favourite eyeshadow palette! Its perfect for travelling, I’ve spent a lot of time away in June and July and I always took it with me, its small and compact, very travel friendly. The shadows are amazing quality, as are all Urban Decay eyeshadows, and perfect colours for neutral and smoky eyes, so many different looks from such a small palette!
Bourjois Bronzer: As you would have seen one of my previous blog post ‘The holy grail of bronzers' (link) I LOVE this bronzer and i have wore it nearly every day in July. It’s the perfect colour and amazing quality.
Real Techniques Expert Face Brush: This has been my favourite makeup brush of July! It is perfect for foundations, its not too big or too small. It doesn’t leave streaks on my face and blends really well. Plus its so soft!
Barry M Nail Polish In 'Shocking Pink': The colour is to die for. I’m not a big fan of pink, and I hardly ever wear it but I saw this nail polish, in ‘Shocking pink’ and I fell in love with it. I have it on at the moment and its so cute, and so Barbie and girly.


Here are a couple of other random favourites I’ve been loving this month:
Book: ‘Love Letters Of Great Men’ By Ursula Doyle (My review here) This book is so beautiful and I have found myself reaching for it a lot this past month. Some of the letters just reconfirm your faith in love and the human race. It will be one of my all time favourite books.
Youtuber: Miss Budget Beauty, I adore her. I can literally spend hours listening to Khila, we are so similar. I can be cooking or cleaning or blogging and I’ll just have her on in the background. I love her bog too (link)
Morrison’s Own Brand Still Water: I have been loving this these the past few months. At the moment I’m on a no fizzy drinks August, so I will be drinking plenty of water and tea and this is a must have.

I hope you enjoyed reading this!
I'd love to know what are some of your July favourites?
