August Beauty Favourites

 My first 2 favourites are the Topshop cream blush in "Flush" and the Real Technique's stippling brush.  I've been applying this blush with the stippling brush because it is the perfect size for the apples of my cheeks and made my blush look natural, using circular motions.  This cream blush stays on my skin for a the majority of the day. I just love this blush because it gives me the most natural flush to my cheeks. It has a mirror so it's perfect for travelling. It's super pigmented so do build up the colour, gradually.

My skin has been very oily recently so powder has been a complete must this month. The Rimmel Stay Matte Powder is my favourite one and has been ever since I started wearing make up. I love this powder because it keeps my skin matte all day and keeps my concealer in place. I know you've probably heard tonnes of people talk about this powder but it really is a great inexpensive product. 

The Collection Work the Colour eye shadow pencil has been a bug favourite of mine through the month of August. I have been using the shade "Vanilla Sky" which is a cream colour. I have been using this on my waterline to make my eyes appear wider and more awake. I've also been using this in my inner tear duct (corner of my eyes) to brighten them up a little. I love that it has a great staying power and really does help me seem more awake than I may actually be.

 My last favourite for the month of August is the lip gloss "chic" by Tanya Burr cosmetics. It's such a nice nude colour to wear for an everyday look. I wore this pretty much everyday during this month. It's the perfect nude colour if you wanted a subtle shade on your lips. I wore "chic" to add a nice gloss and shine to my lips but I also think you could apply it over a lipstick or lip crayon to add a bit more shine, if you wanted. These lip glosses have great pigmentation and aren't sticky at all so they stay on your lips for most of the day. It also helps that they taste and smell AMAZING too.

That's all my favourites for this month.  Hope you enjoyed this post and that you're looking forward to many posts like this in the future.
