Summer always seems to be a quiet time for beauty industry and my wallet certainly was grateful for it since I spent the big £££ on CH +CultBeauty box in May and then I would just pick up a few pieces throughout the summer where and when needed. I was also a bit more into clothing, especially shoe shopping :)
From top to bottom, left to right: 1. Red Funday Print Long Sleeve Jumper, New Look (totally youtube inspired purchase) 2. Denim Shrunken Jacket, Asos. 3. Adina Casual Pocket Skirt, Whistles. 4. Chuck Taylor Leather Polka Dot Shoes, Converse 5. Clarks Colindale Silver Boots (sold out, sorry).
And my top 5 beauty pick this summer were:
1. Zelens Power D. Review coming this month, this will be perfect for upcoming colder months because it's a nourishing protecting strengthening lightweight facial oil/
2. Indie Lee Co Q 10 Lotion. Review here
3. Clinique Super City Block SPF40
4. Mac lipstick in Vegas Volt (discontinued, sorry!)
5. Pur Volume Vixen Mascara (love the travel mini sized one)
Post a Comment
Pixi + CH double cleanse - great. Full review here.
Philip Kingsley Elizastisizer - this is another #carolinehironsmademedoit product. Nice mask/pre-wash treatment for dry coloured hair. I will repurchase.
Philip Kingsley Perfecting Spray - meh. I used this before blow drying my hair and it was alright. But I much prefer the daily defense spray from PK which I am using at the moment.
Ren Flash Rinse 1 minute vit C facial - good. full review here. It oxidised slightly in the end. Will not repurchase. I think when it comes to vit C, serums are the way to go.
Clinique City Block Sheer SPF25 - my favourite. I want to get the SPF40 from the same line but it is sold out everywhere! Argh.
More empties and stuff that just went bad:
Dr Hauschka cleansing cream and toner - both products I like and have used previously. Love the smell and how gentle they are.
MAC Prep+Prime eyelid primer - had this for too long. And there are better primers on the market.
By Terry lip gloss in cupcake glaze (?) - Nice lip gloss. Not worth the price. I did not purchase this. The smell went bad so to the bin it goes.
NYX lip liner - It was okay, I prefer a liner that stays put better. This one was... too creamy.
Eyeko eyeliner - If you're considering buying this, don't. It dried up within weeks and was difficult to use. Get the Stila stay all day eye liner instead ;)
Real Techniques brow brush - this is quite old and the bristles caved in to the brush handle, if that makes any sense.
