August Favourites

Hey Everyone!

Okay first of all I can't believe it is September already where has this year gone! I could of sworn I was bringing my daughter home for the first time a few weeks ago and it was actually 5 months ago!!

Anyway onto my August favourites if you would like a more in depth review on any of these products just let me know in the comments section below.

1) My first favourite has to be my Marc Jacobs dot perfume I love it! It was a present from my husband (like most of my perfumes are haha) and I have been wearing it nearly every day. I have the 50ml one which can be bought from Boots for £49.50 there is also a 30ml one for £38.50 or a bigger bottle which is 100ml for £67.50. It is a really nice floral,vanilla musk type smell that I feel can be worn day or night.

2) Second is my Bourjois Volume 1 seconde mascara you can get this mascara in either normal or waterproof I opted for waterproof as always and I am in love with this mascara it gives great length and volume and there is 0 clumping. Normally I do 2 (or 3) coats when using a different mascara but with this I would of been happy just leaving it as 1 coat (I still do 2 out of habit though) you can get it from Superdrug for £9.99 and they currently have a buy 1 Bourjois product get the 2nd half price offer going on which just makes the bargain even better.

3) Third is the Maybelline color tattoo 24hr cream gel eyeshadow in the shade On and On bronze. I have several of these but this one has to be my favourite shade as you can do a simple all over the lid smokey eye look with minimal effort. I was a little skeptical about this product before I bought it because it was a cream eyeshadow and past experiences have not been good for me when it comes to cream eyeshadows they either crease or make my lid feel sticky and heavy but I thought for £4.99 I'd give it ago and I'm so glad I did I didn't get any creasing with this product and it lasted all day.

4) Fourth is the Soap and Glory Archery brow tint and pencil, this product is so easy to use I personally prefer the felt tip side so I would recommend this to anyone who is wanting to fill in their eyebrows for the first time or for someone who wants something that they can just quickly use. I have it in the shade Brownie points, the other shade they do is Love is Blonde and you can get them again from Boots for £10

5) Fifth is another Soap and Glory product it's the Sexy mother pucker gloss stick in the shade Nudist and I bought this from Boots for £8. This is a really nice creamy product that doesn't leave your lips feeling sticky and I like the colour as it's just slightly darker than my natural lip colour so it's great to wear during the day even if I don't have a full face of makeup on and it's quick and easy to use on the go. The only thing I don't like about this product is the fact that for me (as I don't know if it's like this for everyone) the colour doesn't last long, maybe about 20 minutes or so before I have to reapply it so it seems to be more like a tinted lip balm but still I like it.

6) The last product I have loved this month is my blusher by MUA in the shade Cupcake, Again I had my doubts as to whether I would like this or not as I had never tried MUA products before and when I saw it was £1 in Superdrug I was sure the pigmentation would be poor but I thought for £1 I couldn't resist it. When I first applied the blush to my cheeks I loved how it looked the shade is great and it is very pigmented I personally have to dab it onto my cheeks with a brush so it's not too clown like. I will definitely be buying more shades.

I hope you enjoyed my August favourites and don't forget if you want a more in-depth review and swatches ect on any of these products just let me know and I will happily do it for you.
