SUMMER FAVOURITES

Hello! I created a slightly different post from usual today for a few reasons 1) It's currently summer(ish) and I suffer from the w o r s t hayfever, and bloodshot eyes is not what anyone wants to see. 2) I have also been contemplating broadening my make up tutorials into videos on YouTube (AHH) D:   (( but undecided because i'm a massive girl)) 3) I have been loving these things and want to share them :-) Okayyy go!

1) For summer I have been loving this pale pink blush from Rimmel, it's their lasting finish blush in the colour Santa Rose. I think it looks very pretty and natural on the cheek and perfect for this season!

2) The next make up product I have been really enjoying is the Eyeko Skinny Brush Mascara, I really like the formula of this as it lasts all day without flaking or smudging. However I think I would opt for the volumizing one next time round as I already have quite long lashes and am partial to voluminous lashes (who isn't?)
3) I love highlighting the inner corner of my eyes all year round, but I like to go especially bright in summer, it makes you look so bright eyed and awake! I have been loving using Nylon from MAC for this recently! Its a  frosty white with a yellow tone.

4) I was in Boots the other day when I found this brush from No7, the brush head is amazing for blending (and very similar to the famous 217!), the natural hairs make it super soft and i'm a big fan! The only downside is that the handle is a little short, but I don't mind as it means it will fit easily into a make up bag!
5) My go to perfume all year round is without a doubt Chanel Chance and I use this r e l i g i o u s l y. However, for summer this year I have been looking for something a little lighter and after loving the scent from Sanctuary Spa products for ages, I knew that when I saw the body spray I WANTED it. I love the freshness of the citrus in it but the patchouli and sandalwood keep it quite musky which I love!
6) These are a few fashion favorites I've been loving, naturally, the Topshop Mom jeans are included. The fit of these jeans are so flattering and comfortable and as British summer is often filled with clouds and rain, a pair of jeans are essential. I have also been loving this cream blazer from Topshop, you can dress it up or down so easily and is great for summer as i'm trying to steer away from wearing black!
7) These are actually my first pair of Clarks shoes since I was 8 years old and i'm in love with them! I'm a sucker for garish coloured shoes as I tend to go for not too busy outfits and brighten everything up with cool shoes and these patent leather cobalt blue desert boots are perfect for just that. :-)

8) For my accessories I have been loving these silver midi rings from ASOS Market Place and my Vivienne Westwood silver pink belt ring. I have also been loving this emerald green nail polish from Revlon in the colour Posh!
9) Finally, I love on-ear headphones, I think they're great for long train journeys or just getting the bus or tube, these are my Marshall Majors!

Thank you for reading, hope you enjoyed a few summer favourites! Some more blah blah blah here: unfortunately my poor laptop has had a serious meltdown and is being picked up tomorrow for repair and wont be with me again for about 4 weeks, but hopefully should be able to borrow my sisters to update here! (like i'm doing now, thanks sis!) Anyway, yes, BYE!
