What I Heart this Week !

What I heart this Week !

I have decided that each week I will share a few random things that I've been loving from fashion trends to food !

-Garnier Moisture Match in "Wake me up"- This really does what it says on the tin , I use this at night after cleansing my face my Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish . I first noticed a difference in my skin within 3 days of use , it left it looking dewy and fresh - I can imagine this would look great paired with Rimmel's "Wake me up" foundation !

-Ted Baker Opulent Bow Makeup Bag - A summer take on their classic bow makeup bag , packed with rose gold floraly goodness .

-Asos bag with front tab detail - I imagine this would be great for the autumn , particularly for anyone going back to school/uni.

-Topshop Aubrey Open Side Chunky Boots- My crush of the month ! These boots hit the cut out trend right on the head .A lovely staple shoe for both Summer - worn with bare legs or Winter paired with tights .

-Nico Mirallegro - Star of "My Mad Fat Diary" and new release "Spike Island (BABE!).

My Summer Face !

Although Summer here in Scotland is pretty much non existent  I still feel obliged to switch up my makeup and try out lighter , creamier products . Over the past few weeks I have found myself using a combination of products which I feel make for a great summer face (whether you live in Barbados or here in not so sunny Glasgow). So here goes !

Face

1. Mac Mineralize Skin finish in Medium - I like to use a little bit of this to set my foundation during the summer months , although summer is all about cream products this powder prevents the skin from looking oily or greasy in the summer sun . This could also be used instead of foundation for a lighter coverage - if you're feeling brave !

2. Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum in 53 - This is definitely my foundation of the year so far ! It gives a medium coverage but still leaves the skin looking dewy and ....healthy , this is a great alternative to Nars Sheer Glow foundation . 

3.Benefit Talk to the Tan - This is a product which I didn't really know how to use at first , however this is great for adding to any tinted moisturizers or foundations to add a bit of warmth during the summer months.

4. Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer in porcelain - I apply a little bit of this under the eyes with my fingers to conceal any dark circles ( perfect for "the morning after the night before" who needs sleep eh?).

5. Maybelline Dream Touch Blush in 06 -These blushes have a fantastic creamy texture and feel great on the skin - these work best when applied using your fingers - handy !

Eyes

1.A very well used Urban Decay Naked Pallete - A great versatile product , perfect for any season .This is a product I definitely couldn't live without .

2.Stilla Smudge Pot in Kitten - This product is marketed as a gel liner , however I tend to use mine as a shadow base , or simply on its own for those hectic days . A great highlight product for your inner corner !

3. Rimmel Scandaleyes eyeliner in black - A great dupe for Urban Decay's 24/7 liners . Its creamy ,amazingly pigmented and long-lasting , what more can I say ....

4. Loreal Super liner in Crystal Black - This is super easy to apply and is an everyday essential for me . 

Lips

1.Revlon Lip Butter in Strawberry Shortcake - These lip butters are a lovely for  to moisturizing your lips and adding subtle hint of color .

2. Rimmel Apocalips Lip Lacquer in Celestial - Rimmel really are on the ball this season ! These liquid lipsticks are extremely pigmented and long lasting and are also under £5.

4.Revlon Colourstay Lipstick in Socialite - These apply really smoothly and dry with a matte finish . I love these lipsticks however a find using some sort of lip balm over the top prolongs wear and adds a bit of moisture which I feel they lack .

5&6 . Mac Fan Fare and Hot Gossip - You just cant beat a Mac Lipstick - they look great , they smell great and have possibly the best colour range on the market .

7. EOS Lip balm - A Summer Essential , great for keeping your lips soft and kissable !
