June Favourites ♥

The month of June has gone so fast and I have so many beauty and non beauty favourites but I won't bore you will all of them.  Here are four of my beauty and four of my non beauty favourites.

Beauty Favourites;

120 bright eye shadow palette ♥ this is my summer must buy! highly pigmented and bendable colours,  I'm not sure where it is from as it was a birthday gift sorry!

REVOLUTION highlighter in Golden Lights £3.00 ♥ can be bought on the Make-up Revolution website or Superdrug online. I have no words about this, just buy it please buy it.  Honestly it is one of the best highlighters I have ever used and it is in my top 3 but sadly nothing can beat my beloved MAC pigment in Vanilla.

Illamasqua eye shadow in Heroine £15.50 ♥ can be bought in Selfridges, Space NK and online. If you are pale like myself this eye shadow is the perfect contour and crease colour, I actually like this way more than NYX blush in Taupe.

Nude Lipstick ♥ over the past few months I have been wearing bright lipstick but now summer is officially here, I have been wearing bright colours on my eyes and cheeks and opting for a nude lip and I have been loving the effect.

Non Beauty Favourites;

The Fault in Our Starts movie ♥ I fell in love with the book last year and I cried reading the book so I knew I would fall apart watching the movie and I wasn't wrong.  I bought myself the largest Ben & Jerry's available in the cinema and I sat and watched it with lots of tissues, I kept all my tears in for 45 minutes and after that the tears started and didn't stop. No movie has ever made me cry like this and I feel defeated that a movie actually made me cry for nearly an hour, but other than that I would recommend it to anyone but please wear waterproof mascara!

Accessorize Opal Studs ♥ since I have re stretched my ears to 20mm I have been looking for some pretty studs to go in my lobes what don't look glitzy and I was given these beauties for my birthday and they are perfect. 

Pink Make-up case ♥ I needed a new case to store my daily make-up in as my full make-up and skincare storage is now over flowing into empty glossyboxes. I was given this for my recent birthday and it is perfect, the case is in a pretty pink metal which keeps everything safe and water resistant. Inside there are eight compartments which are a perfect width for lipsticks and other make-up products of a similar size and shape.

Game of Thrones ♥ I kept on seeing people post about Game of Thrones every where and my friends was also telling me to watch it so I gave in to peer pressure and I watched it and I am so glad I did.  I started episode season one late one Monday night and 40 episodes, 4 seasons and several nights later I have finished it in just less that a week.  I became hooked to it and my favourite character has to be Tyrion Lannister, I love everything about his character. 

Splash of Colour ♥

Summer has officially started!! which means one thing and one thing only, colour and lots of it!! I rarely wear colourful clothing so I express myself with my make-up most of the time, now we are in summer I have begun to express myself a little more than usual.

No matter what you are wearing you can add a pop of colour to your make-up. It can be anything from a bright winged liner instead of the normal black/brown eye liner, neon eye shadows, bright lips or cheeks.  It may seem to be daunting to add such a bright colour to your face but when it is done correctly it can look amazing.  

I started off adding brightly coloured eye liners on my bottom waterline and smudging it out, it creates a lovely smoky effect and a pop of colour.  

My current favourite waterline eye liners are;

GOSH velvet touch eye liner in Sky High*

GOSH velvet touch eye liner in Purple Stain* 

MUA intense colour eye liner in Turquoise*

MUA intense glitter eye liner in Jade Jewel*

*can be found at superdrug

I have also been using my much loved Rimmel Scandal Eyes khol eye liner in Nude as a base and applying eye shadow on top. 

Bright colours can be daunting but try creating a bright smoky eye, the jet black cut crease and false lashes make the colours pop.  Start off with a colour what compliments your eye colour/hair colour and when you are more comfortable you can add the rainbow.  When using bright colours be careful with reds and oranges they can bring out the redness and tiredness in your eyes, try using a nude or a black eye liner in the inner waterline to prevent this.
