Current Favourites (July 2016)

If you follow me on Twitter you will know that recently I've been struggling with my blog posts and ideas but I realised it's been a few months since I last did a current favourites so here I am again telling you my favourite products of the moment!

Firstly I have been loving the L'oreal Nude Magique Cushion foundation as it's quick to apply whilst also evening out my skin tone and covering my redness. It doesn't provide a high coverage finish but for every day and work I really have been enjoying how it looks. I also find it lasts really well on my skin and even if it doesn't the packaging means I can take it in my handbag for touch ups. This was especially important when I cried on my last day of work recently!

The NYX soft matte lip cream in Cannes is a really lovely colour on me, the typical 'my lips but better shade'. If I don't know what lip colour to wear I always reach for this! And of course, the formula is incredible as you probably all already know.

I mentioned it in my Most Used Brushes post but I had to give it the praise it deserves: the Zoeva Wing Liner brush. I cannot say enough how much I love how this brush makes my brows look! Feathery and full without looking fake, this brush does things others don't. For more details see my Most Used Brushes post. Another product I've been using regularly is the MAC mineralise blush in New Romance which provides a gorgeous sheeny flush to the cheeks, perfect for minimal make up days in the summer. For daytime I've been leaning more towards this blush rather than using my usual bronzer.

The last beauty product is a rediscovered favourite! Lately I've been loving using the Urban Decay Volume 2 palette on my eyes as it has lovely neutrals for day time, smokey colours and bight pops of colour! An oldie but a goodie, this palette has me sorted for every situation. It goes without saying that the Urban Decay eyeshadows are creamy and pigmented.

Lastly, a lifestyle favourite. Now I've finished work for summer I have been really getting into using my planner. I use inserts but organise them in a sort of bullet journal style but also use stickers, it's just the way that works best for me and I've really been enjoying it. Going along with this I've been building up my washi tape collection, it's so addictive to just keep purchasing! I found my favourites on Aliexpress at a super low price.
