July Favourites

I don't have many favourites to show you this month! I have been using a lot of the same products I showed you in my June Favourites and I didn't want to just repeat myself, so I decided to keep this months post to new favourites! Over the past week or so I have been buying quite a few new products (whoops) so if I get on with them all, I can imagine next months favourites may be slightly long! 




Let's start with skincare! My first favourite is my Emma Hardie Amazing Face Natural Lift and Sculpt Moringa Cleansing Balm (short and snappy eyy!) I received a sample of this in my Glossybox about 6 months ago and absolutely fell in love with it! I used up my whole 15ml sample pot and immediately ordered the full size pot! I used my 15ml sample on and off for six months because I didn't want to use it up too quickly. The full size is 100ml so this is going to last me ages! This cleanser is a balm that just melts amazingly into the skin and once water is added, it changes to an oil. It feels very luxurious and smells incredible! I love it.


Onto make up, my next favourite is my YSL Touche Eclat highlighter pen. I use this under my eyes and around my nose. I love the way it leaves my skin, so fresh, radiant and awake!


I don't tend to wear eye shadow on a daily basis, however I do like to have some colour so I have been loving Mac Paint Pot in Bare Study. This is a gorgeous champagne colour with gold pearl. I love this as I can apply a small amount for just a wash of colour, or build it up for a more pearly champagne colour. This is also a great colour to use as a highlight under the brow bone and in the corner of the eye.


For blush this month I have been loving Mac Well Dressed. This is a pink colour with subtle shimmer that adds a lovely healthy glow to the cheeks. I have had this for a while but been really loving it this month and using it pretty much everyday!


Finally is a perfume and it is Diesel Loverdose! This does smell of liquorice and I wasn't sure if I would like it because of that but I actually really do! When I first ever sprayed it I loved it and it was on my wishlist from then on! Its a fairly sweet scent and the liquorice definitely stands out but it obviously has other scents in it as well. Liquorice and vanilla are the heart notes and star anise and mandarin are the top notes. They all smell delicious! This scent stays all day - I am constantly getting whiffs of it throughout my day which is great! I would recommend giving this a sniff when you next pass a fragrance counter.


Those are all my July favourites! If you would like a full review on any of the products I have mentioned, don't hesitate to ask me in the comments!
