Its time for another Favorites of the month. As I sadi before; I still cant get over the fact where the last 6/7 months have went. I mean seriously, how is it end of June?
But no matter the fact that this month has been a quick one; I am looking forward to July. No, not because of Summer; there is almost no Summer in Ireland; if you get eliminate the wind it would actually feel like summer sun on your skin though :) My favorites are products I have used everyday or most of the days this month and simply dont want to go without.
I have been raving about the Skin Iluminator by VitaLiberata a while now; still loving it. It gives my skin a great glow; a little tan and makes me just go out without any make up all day long. Great right? I picked the Light Latte one here.
After prepping my skin for more exposure; I had a look around of how I could turn my pale skin into a sun kissed skin. Of course you have heard of St.Tropez Tan before; nothin new here. I picked the light/medium one because I am quite pale myself. I will do a little detailed review on that one this week; so you get my opinion on that. But so far; the graduate tan is my favorite; it slowly turns my skin into a more alive feauture; glowing and hydrated skin included. I would def. recommend this for the summer if you go on holiday or want to get your legs out :)
The brushes are no surprise either; I have been pretty late with the blush brush by RealTechniques; I used the one that comes with my Clinique Blush before -which I love- but I figured I might as well get another one; as I wasnt so impressed with the 300 tapered blush; its to focused on one point only on my eyes; but then again I am not a master in applying make up ;)
The other brush is the topshop foundation brush, which for 7 Euro is a great pick if you want to save some money but want another brush for travel or something. I am not sure they are in all Topshop stores; but if I can get them in Cork I am sure you find them somewhere. Also, how great is the colour , like blue woop woop :)
Then I fell in love with the Kiss&Blush by YvesSaintLaurent, its gorgeous ! It looks just amazing on my lips; for me the BabyDoll Nr3 is a "your lips but better" colour. Its matte and not glossy; which I love even more. It is very soft; easy and quick to apply and just great for my day to day office look.
I wanted to try it for ages; and I am very glad I did.
Another product I tried by YvesSaintLaurent is the Touche Exlat Radiant Blur Perfector -let me catch my breath- its a very weird product in my eyes; I am honestly not sure what it does to my skin. But it makes it super soft- like peaches soft- and make it look more even, without uneven skin; just perfect doll skin without it looking fake? If you know what I mean. I used it quite a lot in the last week; its nothing for everyday I would say; but def. worth a try.
Also among my favorites; the new bae by Clinique (Clinique Pop); both blush and lipsticks are great; so easy to apply and amazing colour range as well; if you want to know more about them; have a look at my previous post :)
So thats all; quite alot in my eyes. I will go a little back in purchasing much make up in July; because I want firstly save my money for upcoming holidays as well as go make up free during the summer anyway; or light CC Cremes.
What are your tips for a make up free/less make up during the summer?
Lots of love
