Summer Hit List - Perfume

This is the last in my little series of Summer Hit List! I've hoped you have like this kind of post and have been enjoying seeing what I have been loving, don't worry I have loads more beauty reviews coming up as well as some lifestyle post's but here goes with my two go to summer scents!

The first one is Vera Wang Bejeweled a perfume that I use on special occasions or when I'm going out as it's such a lovely summer scent and last's all day on my skin. It's on the pricey side which is why I tend to use it when going out or special occasions but I prefer using it in summer then in winter.



My second go to product is One Direction's Our Moment, I don't really like there music but there perfume is spot on for the perfect summer scent! I've been using it daily over the last month and love how it smells and lasts all day. It's not to expensive so I don't mind using it daily but it's such a lovely scent and the bottle quite adorable to!

Summer Hit List - Hair

This summer as featured in some of my post's you will know I've been loving hair donut's and donut accessories in the shape of cute little flowers to place around the bun. I've got most of mine from Primark as they are nice and cheap at around £2 but my favorite has been the nice yellow one from Topshop for around £6 . I've been wearing it non stop and have been pleased with how well it stay elasticated. I think there the perfect summer accessorize that most people can pull off!



I've also been refreshing my hair throughout the day with a summer fragrance dry shampoo from the range Batiste I've opted for Summer Blush but they were quite a few in the range. After a few hours in the sun and a few hours of sweating it out I like the just spritz it over my hair to freshen it up or remove grease either with my full size bottle or a mini, it's been quite a lifesaver!

What have you been loving in your hair this month?

Summer Hit List - Nails

A bit of a mixture for nails as I've been lovely the bright summer shades but also the more muted down pastels, but here goes!



For going out on night's out Ciate's Playdate has been my go to product it's bright and summery and seem's to go well with most of my outfit's which I love. Tanya Burr's Little Duck has been perfect wear this summer it's such a nice girly shade that I think I may of over worn it! Topshop's Bounce has been a lifesaver if I've been away from home which seem's to be a lot this last month as it last's for ages on my nails and is a lovely summery orange which I've been loving. For a more toned down shade I've opted for Essie Lilacism and Topshop's Easy Peasy as they have been easy to pair with outfit's and not to in your face yet still a nice summer shade.

Summer Hit List - Lips

This summer I've been loving bright shades and been using a lot of moisturizing products to soothe my lips and I've been especial loving orange lipsticks!



My MAC Morange and Topshop Oh La La have been getting a lot of action recently and I've been doing a lovely day look with Topshop and a impressive evening look with Morange. To create a softer yet still bright look I've been using Tanya Burr's Exotic Island which I love as it isn't as sticky as most lip glosses so doesn't go everywhere and create a mess. To soften and soothe my lips after being out in the sun all day I've been using The Body Shop Blueberry Lip Butter which I love and tend to just sit putting it on all night till my lips are well and truly moisturized, I've also been using The Body Shop's Born Lippy when out and about as it's easier to apply and have been loving the Pink Berry scent as it's a really nice summer scent and a gorgeous shade as well.

What's been your favorite summer lipstick?

Summer Hit List - What's On My Face

I've decided to do a set of post's all about what I've been loving this summer beauty wise, it will be around 4-5 post's long and will include all the product's I've been using over the last month in summer! Starting with Make Up.



For the base of my face I've been using concealer to cover any blemishes and any dark areas I've also been mixing it with my morning moisturizer to create a tinted moisturizer instead of using a thick and heavy foundation. Over the top of my concealer I've been dusting my face with powder so it doesn't look shiny or sweaty. To create a lighter look on my cheeks I've been using my cream blusher with a hint of highlighter, this is to soften my face and create a nice summer glow. I've finished the look with my brown mascara to create a light and bright eye look instead of a dark and smudgy messy look I tend to always get in summer!

All the product's I've used are here:
Revlon Concealer
Revlon Colour Stay Powder
Natural Collection Mascara
Me Me Me Highlighter
Topshop Cream Blush

What have you been using on your face in the summer sun? Let me know below!

Glossybox Stars and Stripes Review

Around two weeks ago I received the July edition of Glossybox which was an American themed box which included 4 full sized products all from America. I was really impressed with this months box and have had a lot of fun testing out the products the last two weeks so here are my reviews!



Bellapierre Mineral Lipstick - Mandaring
This highly pigmented lipstick is a great product for protecting your lips with added Vitamin C and Vitamin E as well as being a super rich and nice orange shade of red. I was really impressed with how well it stayed on my lips and just how highly pigmented it was, it cost's £20 which is far to much for a lipstick although it is worth the price, I would prefer a dupe though if there is any!



Absolute New York Eyeshadow Primer
I don't normally wear eyeshadow but I wanted to test out the primer so I opted to wait for a night out and give it ago. The primer is creamy and it easy to use, I dabbed a small amount onto my eyes and blended over to create an even look which was perfect for applying eyeshadow onto, it made my eyeshadow stay put and didn't make it smudge which I was impressed with, the price is 4.99 in dollars.



Carmex Lipbalm
A product I already own and love, it's only £2.69 so it's very purse friendly. I love the scent of this product and also use it as a night time balm for my lips and it works really well to soothe and calm my lips down, it works really well and I would highly recommend it.



Color Chub Glossy Seal 
This product was one I wasn't to keen on as the scent was really strong and over bearing, the shade however is a nice deep blue which I would preferably wear in the winter.I found I only needed one coat to create a nice strong blue look but the scent was just to off putting it smelt almost like vinegar. It's 8 dollars and is cruelty free which is nice but it's a shame about the scent!



Pur Minerals Mudd Masque
My favorite product from the whole box, a fun detoxifying mudd masque which is available from the UK for £18 (yay!) I loved how it made my skin feel and look it left it feeling soft and nourished while it look radiant and glowing. It had some harsh ingredients like salicylic acid and states you can use it for 5-20 minutes so I went for 10 minutes which gave me a nice result.



So what are your thoughts on the July Glossybox?

Blowpro Blow Up Daily Volumizing Conditioner Review

I got this little tube of goodness in a recent Glossybox and have loved using it, my hair has been loads better recently and I've been able to branch out a bit and try new hair products so I was eager to test out the Blowpro as my current shampoo has nearly run out and I'm on the hunt for a new one.



The scent is very natural and quite fresh which I like as my hair is always over powerful after applying my heat protection spray and then my setting spray I tend to opt for a non scented shampoo set and this one is perfect for that. The texture is thick like most conditioner's and it goes nicely through my thick hair which impressed me.

The product seemed to thicken my hair from the ends up and left my roots flat which is the look I wanted to achieve, it also made my hair stayed thick throughout the day and didn't go flat after a few hours which I loved. I've tried the Blowpro out using a natural look with no added products and leaving my hair to dry naturally and it worked just as well as when I blow dry my hair and add extra products which really impressed me.

The price for the set is £6.99 each and it's available from Superdrug or online at there store. This is quite a nice average price to pay so I'm defiantly going to pick some up once my current set runs out!
