August favourites

Hi guys, 

I know its quite late into the month of September but today I've decided that I am going to start doing monthly favourites and since there were a lot of things that I loved in the month of august I've decided to do august favourites for you before September ends. 

My first favourite of august has to be a new nail varnish which I picked up and I think this one is perfect for august because it is a very summery blue colour it reminds me of the sky and the sea. Ive never had a beauty uk nail varnish before but it was on the lower skale of nail varnishes so i thought id give it a try and i loved it. 

Beauty uk nail varnish £2.99 superdrug in colour tealed with a kiss

My second favourite is these two adorable Topshop bows which I got a few months ago but only just got around to wearing and every time I do I get complements. I love to wear them with a simple ponytail, half up half down hairstyle and my most favourite is when I have a bun in my hair I think a bow hair bobble just finishes off the hair style.  

Topshop bow hair bobble £ 3.99 each 

My third favourite has got to be this amazing little note book my sister got me when she went on holiday. But its not just this notebook, I've been loving any little handbag sized notebook that I can carry around with me and write a list in or an idea wherever I am. I think that everyone should have one of these because it encourages you to become a lot more organised.


The fourth of my favourites is dry shampoo which I was very sceptical about at the start. But its become one of the things which I have used a lot throughout the summer when I've had a busy few days and not had time to do much with my hair. Its also good for if i need more texture in my hair before curling it as it helps keep the curls in for longer. I would deffinately reccomend it to anyone.  

Batise dry shampoo £3.00 from superdrug 

Now my last but no means least favourite is the bodyshop moisture foundation with spf 15 in it and ive loved this on days when ive wanted to go for a more natural make up look. The amazing thing about it is that it has spf in it so it protects your skin from the sun but also its easy to apply, doesnt feel cakey and it stays on for a lobg period of time which is always a bonus. 

The body shop foundation £13.00 

Hope you guys love some of my favourites as much as I do and don't forget to come back next month for my September Friday favourites and on Monday for another surprise post and every Monday and Friday for the rest of your life! Also moving into new university halls tomorrow and I'm so scared haha wish me luck.

Favourites Friday- My Five Favourite Nail Varnishes

Hey Guys, 

Today I thought that I would do something different and show five of my favourite high street brand nail varnishes. I dunno if it will be interesting but just trying to find different things I can do :) I'm no beauty expert so I don't know any technical words and I have already used these so sorry for the presentation and photo taking skills :) 

Nail Varnish NO1 

This is a new addition to my collection, it's Maybelline New York's Colour Show in colour 120 Urban Turquoise By Colorama. This is kind of a two toned nail varnish in one light it looks green and in the other it looks blue. 
 

Nail Varnish/Brand NO2

This second set of nail varnishes/Brand is Kate Spade New York collection by Nails Inc London and these are some of my favourite nail varnishes. I have a set of three the first is 413 Big Apple Red, second is 403 Soho Silver and the third is New York Noir. I love all kinds of nails inc nail varnishes although they can be quite on the pricey side. 


Nail Varnish NO3

My next choice of my favourite nail varnish is Ciaté Paint Pots in colour PP105 Play Date. This is a bright red colour but definitely needs a few coats to get the real red. I love this not only for the colour and quality but for the packaging as I think it's very cute. 


Nail Varnish/Brand NO4

These are part of the Rimmel London I love lasting finish collection the first one is 030 Double Decker Red colour and the second one is the 045 Misty Jade. I love all things teal coloured when it comes to nail varnish and the Misty Jade was the first one of these I got and I instantly loved them. 


Nail Varnish NO5 

This is my ultimate favourite nail varnish brand, I have a lot of barry m nail varnishes and this is one of my favourites. This is Barry M's Textured Nail Effects TNP 6 Majesty. I love this one as it stays on for the longest of all my barry m nail varnishes, it's glittery, gold and reminds me of Christmas!


Thankyou for reading my blog
