July Favourites

I found choosing my favourites this month really difficult as I have been loving so many different things lately, i've also tried quite a few different things this month, some which I have fallen in love with, but here are a few of my favourites...

FOTD - Wedding Look

Last weekend I went to my cousins lovely wedding in Devon. I love having an excuse to get dressed up and try something different with my make up, so I thought i'd share with you the look I went for. Annoyingly, my camera died after I took the photos of the make up I used so I had to take the rest with my phone, so excuse the poor quality!

Loving the pout a bit too much in this I think!

FOTD #2

I haven't done a face of the day for ageees, so thought I would give you all another one! My 'everyday' make up routine changes all the time, I always find new things that I add into what I use every day. These products are all ones that I use on a regular basis and am loving! I'm always chopping and changing my foundation and lately have started using the 'Rimmel Wake Me Up' and love it! I know so many people rave about it, but it is so nice, gives you a lovely fresh feeling face and not cakey at all!

Face

Soap & Glory 'Bright Here, Bright Now', Benefit 'Boi-ing', Rimmel 'Wake Me Up' in Ivory, Soap & Glory 'One Heck Of A Blot', Bourjois 'Delice de Poudre' & MUA Blusher in 'Bubble Gum'.

Eyes

Rimmel 'Exaggerate Eye Liner' in Black, Naked Basics 'Naked 2' & 'Venus' (for highlights), Benefit 'They're Real' mascara (which I forgot to add in the picture, oops!) & Rimmel 'Eyebrow Pencil' in dark brown.

Lips

Lush lip scrub (bubblegum) to prep! Mac Cremesheen 'Night To Remember'.

 Let me know if you have tried any of these products & what you think of them!

Throughout February, I discovered so many new products that I have loved & couldn't imagine now not using. I have chosen 8 beauty products that I have discovered this month and have looooved!

REVIEW: Naked Basics

Hello! So I finally got my hands on the beautiful Urban Decay Naked Basics palette. I was ooing and aahing whether to get this one, or the original Naked palette, but being an Urban Decay virgin I thought I would go with the basics! The colours are all quite matte, apart from 'Venus' which is lovely as a highlighter as it's a bit more shimmery. This palette is so versatile and so many looks can be achieved with it, I haven't had much chance to play around with it yet, i've only used it for my every day sort of look, but I love it! The colours are so strong so not much is needed at all at they stay on a long time which is always a plus! I would 100000% recommend this palette to anyone who hasn't yet tried it, or any of the Naked palettes! Or for beginners as the colours are really wearable and easy to create a 'nude' look!

(Swatches for the 6 colours in the palette, my favourite is Venue & Naked 2!)

This is quite a basic look that I created using Venus, Naked 2 & Faint. (The camera doesn't do this any justice, it makes it look awful and blotchy, it doesn't look like this in real life!) but is a subtle look :) I hope this has helped anyone who was deciding whether to buy it or not!
