''Summer time and the living is easy...'' but that sun and heat plays absolute havoc with our makeup!
Here are five of my holy grail products that I would not go without during these gorgeous months of summer sunshine.
1. La Roche Posay Sunscreen (Factor 50).
I recently purchased this as I am going to Turkey with a friend in June. I am very pale naturally, I would be prone to burning rather than tanning unfortunetly for me, however I was reccomended this product as it is such a high factor and has recieved such great feedback.
2. L'Oreal 'Revitalift Miracle Blur' Primer. This fab primer is silicone based which means it fights off heat and humidity and keeps your foundation on longer throughout the day. Revitalift Miracle Blur also contains an SPF 30 so it protects the skin on your face which sometimes we can forget about. Some women think
''Oh I am wearing foundation I wont get burned'' DO NOT be fooled ladies. An SPF 15,20 or 30 in a primer and your foundation is SO important cannot stress it enough.
3. Urban Decay 'All Nighter'' setting makeup spray is an absolute fantastic genious invention!
You spray it onto your finished face of makeup, gives it that dewy glow without looking greasy AND sets it so it stays put for over 16 hours without melting, cracking or creasing! Seriously could not promote this spray enough, it is a lifesaver especially for nights out on holidays. A must have ladies!
I bought this tan to fake it over on holidays as there isn't a chance I will tan within a week. This tan gives your skin the perfect natural glow. Suitable for every skin type, this self tanning Elixir provides your skin with a natural glowing tan without leaving a smell or stickiness to your skin.
Its highly concentrated formula dries quickly offering an intense, luxurious, yet natural looking streak-free tan with even fade. It can be used on both body and face. Developing and lasting 2-3 weeks is so handy for holiday go-er's like myself who don't tan that easily. Nobody wants to look like a milk bottle on the beach!
5. Benefit's 'High Beam' has got to be my all time fave highlighter. I am aware it is quite pricey but in my opinion it is SO worth the investment as you use it sparingly as it is highly concentrated and gives an absolute gorgeous finish to your makeup. It can be mixed into your foundation or simply patted on to the cheekbones and brow bone area. It gives a lush healthy glow to your skin. I have been stopped a few times out and about and asked what I use on my skin and girls this is my secret. Big thumbs up, if you haven't got this in your life...go get it!
