JULY FAVOURITES

July has been a pretty busy month for me as work has gotten really busy and most of my weekends i've had plans so blogging has taken a back step. However, I'm determined to get back to it and get as many posts scheduled as possible and to keep it up. This months favourites is pretty much all new products as i've got a little spendy now I'm earning a pay cheque every month.

NATIONAL LIPSTICK DAY

Happy National Lipstick Day!! Oh what a great day to have for any beauty lover. This post was originally planned for a few days time but since it is National Lipstick Day i've bought it forward. This will be a round up of all the lipsticks i've been using this past month including some new favourites and some old ones I always go back to. 

HIGH STREET BEAUTY | IS IT WORTH IT?

Has everyone noticed recently that every clothes shop you seem to go into noW has their own makeup range? Not that I'm complaining as the more places to shop for makeup the better. However, just because a shop can make amazing clothes can they really enter the beauty market with amazing products. This post includeS most of the clothing stores I have found to stock their own beauty range and whether the products are with the money.

SEPHORA HAUL

I so wish this post was going to be all about this makeup rampage id gone on in Sephora, but unfortunately not. However, my boyfriend was out in Barcelona recently so I wasn't going to miss an opportunity for some new makeup. 

AMERICAN BEAUTY | THE BRANDS YOU NEED TO TRY

Being a beauty lover in the UK can be so annoying sometimes. America always seems to have better brands and some that aren't always accessible in the UK. One of the most annoying things about trying to get American beauty in the UK is the high postage and customs chargers! This post has a selection of brands that are easy to access in the UK and some that are not so easy.

SKINCARE HAUL

Recently I've really gotten into my skincare and have buying new products A LOT! My skin tends to be combination with a slightly oily t-zone and then random dry patches, especially around my eyes and the edges of my nose. This post is sort of a skincare haul/trial of the products.

ABH GLOW KIT

So i've finally taken the plunge and got myself one of the ABH Glow Kits. I've been lusting over this since they were released earlier this year, but just couldn't justify to myself (or my parents) buying one when I was still at uni and not earning. However, Cult Beauty recently had 15% off everything so I ordered it straight away.

DISAPPOINTING BEAUTY PRODUCTS

Having tried out my fair share or beauty products and brands I have found there are some I love and some that just didn't live up expectations. This most is by no means to bash a product or brand but I just wanted to give my opinion on my why these products weren't for me. Many of these products I picked up after hearing other people rave about them and I have since come to the decision that they just aren't suited to me.

XO BEAUTY EYELASHES

I've become such an eyelash junkie lately and have been picking up lots of new pairs from different brands, you can check out my eyelash favourites post here. One of my favourite beauty YouTubers is Shaaanxo and her makeup always looks so flawless so I had to get my hands on some of the lashes from her range.

MORPHE | SOUL OF SUMMER V. NATURAL BEAUTY EYESHADOW PALETTES

Morphe is pretty much renowned for its 35O eyeshadow palette but it's sold out everywhere all the time in the UK - please can somewhere hurry up and restock it in the UK. Anyway, since I can't get my hands on the 35O I picked up two of the 12 shade palettes. Both of these palettes are available in the UK on Cult Beauty and Beauty Bay and are priced at £11.95.

LIFE UPDATE

I'll be the first to admit that my favourite type of blog post to read is beauty related and that will never change. However, sometimes it's nice to find out about the person behind the blog  and thats exactly what this post is. Recently a lot has happened or changed in my life and these are just some of the things you might see me moaning (haha!) or mentioning in my upcoming blog posts.

GLOW GIVING MAKEUP

This is sort of a follow up to my Glow Giving Skincare post (here), as once i've found the perfect skincare products to getting my skin glowing I like to enhance it with glowing makeup. The main bulk of this post will be highlighters since they are obviously the perfect source for helping your face glow, however there is a few other products thrown in. 

MAKEUP HAUL

Recently i've picked up a few new beauty bits whilst out shopping so I thought todays post could combine all the newbies. This was going to originally be a drugstore haul but a few of the items were from the beauty section at M&S. Most of these products are new out or hyped up products so I wanted to try them out!

Recently i've starting trying more different skincare products and changing up my routine to see what works best for me. This selection is products are the ones i've found help me maintain that plump, glowing radiant look.
