Summer Favourites!

Hello ladies and gentlemen!!! I hope you have all been well!! Sorry I didn't really update last week, my boyfriend was on holiday so I was spending time with him! We had a lot of fun and went out a lot as the weather was so nice here, and went on a couple of bike rides, and even went to see a film (Inception, you can read the short review on my other blog). But this post isn't about that!! As you all know, its now September and for me, September is the begining of Autumn/Fall!! So I thought I best do a summary of what I have loved using over the summer since when the weather starts turning cold, I change to other stuff!

So lets start with Lush's Lip Scrub in Bubblegum:

Tastes so nommy

I LOVE this product, I use it twice a day, part of my morning and evening routine!! It smells and tastes divine and it is definately something I will be taking over into my Autumn/Winter regime!! I get a little bit of product onto my finger tip, then massage/scrub my lips all over and then lick it off and follow with lipbalm!! My friend steals a bit of this when I am with her as I carry it around in my handbag just incase I need a bit of scrub during the day!!

The Lipbalm I have been loving over the summer has been Nivea Sooth and Protect with SPF 12:

I love Nivea products (as you probably already know!) And I always use the lipbalms, I always have at least one on me at all times!! I chose this one this summer as I hadn't tried it before and the older yellow sun protect one didn't work as well as a normal one for me!! But this one is brilliant, totally makes my lips soft! And another thing I might be taking over to Autumn/Winter with me!!

I have been generally using a neutral lip colour this season, sticking to tinted lipbalms and lipglosses, maybe the occasional pink!! And my favourite this season has been GOSHs Soft 'n' Shine Lip Balm!

I have it in Perfect Plum as it is the colour of my lips but better!! Love this so much, totally going to invest in darker or redder shades for Winter of this!! And it does act as a lipbalm too!! I need to do swatches of this at some point, I love GOSH!!

The make up palette I have been going to all season has to be the NEXT palette I got for my birthday. I ADORE this palette so much!!

Its been a bit battered where it goes in my handbag

Ooooo colours of the neutral kind

I don't use the bronzer and haven't touched the lip glosses so much yet cause I been with the boyfie but the rest of it I USE PRACTICALLY EVERYDAY. If you see me with a black, white and grey eye, its from this palette. If you see me with a bronze or gold look FROM THIS PALETTE. The highlighter I use. THIS. PALETTE. If I ever lost this palette I would cry, it is my go to palette and it will be over winter as well!! Autumn will be full of bronzes and golds and oranges in my make up routine so bring it on palette!! I can forsee this running out T_T I want to stock up on them if I find them!!

Lastly, we have my go to moisturiser of the summer:

I have mentioned this in another post and its all I have been using all summer! Its light and takes no time at all to sink in and it has a slightly citrusy fragrance, which I LOVE as it does make me feel good :D Its nearly all used up so I can move on to my winter moisturiser happy when I finish this up!!

So that was my summer favourites, I hope this was insightful haha!! I would also like to take the time to say thank you for all the kind comments and encouragement on my other blog post, you guys made me feel like I can do it!! A big shout out goes to Helen at The Slimming Strategy who inspired me to do it!! Go say hello to her and encourage her too!! She deserves it!!

Okay thats all for now, see you tomorrow! (Or maybe later on today if I have time hur hur hur)

OH HAI

Yus yus I AM still alive!! But I just do not have the time for a daily blog write now! I just started at South Downs College and am redoing 3 AS Levels!! The subjects I am doing is Archaeology, Classical Civilisation and Biology. I hope to go on to Uni to do Archaeology in the future!! I haven't got many pics of college yet, so I wont do a blog on that right now.

INSTEAD I am going to do a blog on my nail products I use/have. Wow a proper beauty blog I guess :O LE GASP. I am not much of a beauty person or fashion person so I will never be as cool as some people but I hope my ramblings will help some people out 8D

So let us begin *stretches fingers*

My favourite brand for nail varnishes is Rimmel (as you will see). I have two types; I <3 Lasting Finish and 60 Second. I have five of each type, in different colours. Recently I been buying nail varnish like CRAZY like an addict or something. I still have to force myself not to buy nail varnish when ever I go into Superdrugs and see them! *makes grabby hands*MUST. NOT. BUY. MORE. NAIL. VARNISH.*twitch*
Anyways, here is the 5 I <3 Lasting Finish nail varnishs I have!!

From left to write: Your Majesty (239), Azure (198), Green Grass (236), Tangerine Queen (050) and Sunshine (055). I am wearing Tangerine Queen on my nails right now as I felt like a bright colour!! Azure is what I had last week!!
Here is my 60 Seconds varnish:

I am not too sure of the names of these apart from the first one and the middle ones which is Black Out (800) and Blue Me Away (809). The others I am guessing from the chart on the website are called Shocker (270), Coralicious (430) and Green With Envy (819). Both nail varnishes are excellent and only need 3 coat TOPS for a lovely colour. Usually I only use 2. Despite the name, the Lasting Finish doesnt last that much longer than 60 Seconds without chipping. I always reapply one coat each day anyways!
I have 3 Avon colours, but I am not sure what they are called either (I am at my dads. Varnishes at my mums) Here they are:

The two end ones are good for when I can't be bothered with colour! Finally I have a Tommy Hilfiger nail varnish that is soooo old but still works really well!

Its a lovely shimmer colour!
At the time of taking these photos, I was wearing Azure as seen here:

And on my toes I had Blue Me Away (which is really just a dark purple colour more than blue)

My stubby thumb nail xD My nails are a bit weak right now but getting stronger!
Heres some things I use as well. I have some Quickies Nail Varnish Remover Pads which I had aimed to keep in my bag, but I forgot to put them in it!

I also have two base coats that I like to use. I often use Avon Nail Experts 24k Gold strength because it has tiny flecks of gold in it and sparkles 8D

Another Avon item. I got this free when I ordered some mascara and eyeliner from them. Its Cuticle balm and it smells like parmaviolets!!

I have two packets of nail stickers, both flowery cause I love flowers! One of them I have used and the other ones I havent yet (the white ones)


Sorry I am quite lame at beauty blogs! But this concludes my nail stuff! Next blog will probably be on either college or Hello Kitty!!
