August Favourites..

Aloha Hoaloha,

I cant believe it is September already which means my birthday has been and passed, I have started my new life at college and on this current day it is only 98 days until christmas! So crazy! Its time to start planning my christmas list and digging out the wooly hats and scarfs. I thought I would share some of my favourite beauty items, clothing and other general favourites from last month!

The first thing I have been loving so much was the Naked pallet by Urban Decay which I bought on my summer vacation to Dubai. Where I embraced the magic of Sephora in the Dubai Mall. (MAGICAL) For a price of 263 Dirhams (abouts) which is about £45 in british pounds. I couldnt decide between which of the Naked pallets to get though. (Naked or Naked 2) So I went for the one that I thought was more me and got the first pallet. (Im currently saving for 'Naked 2') The colours in the first one are more my colours and style which is what I think pushed me to buy that one. My favourite shadow so far is 'Toasted' which I think is because I figured how to work that one and the shadow 'Sin' together.

The next item is Rimmel London's Wake Me Up Foundation in 200 'Soft Beige'. The foundation is great. I use it for everyday use, it has great coverage and gives a nice glow. It took me a while to figure out which colour was best for my skin tone, but I later figured I could wear the 'Soft Beige' or 'True Ivory' which I believe is the next shade down.

Baby Lips also by Rimmel London are some great lip balms I purchased last month. Cherry Me, Peach Kiss and Pink Punch are the three that I bought yet my favourite is Cherry Me. It has a great colour and lasts for a good amount of time. As well as smelling amazing. Each of these price at £3.99 each and can be found in stores like Superdrug.

Another one of my August favourites was Real Technique Brushes. I only recently bought these brushes out of birthday money but had to add them into this as everyone should know about these. So, I got the Shadow Brush, Powder/Blush Brush and Foundation brush. These have been so good (really soft!). I bought them as a pack from Superdrug for £20.99.

Also, the next thing I have always used because it is just my life saviour! Simple skin care range is just FABULOUS! I have never loved a product as much as I love simple. I use their 'Kind to skin hydrating light moisturiser' and the 'Face wash'. I found I cant use many skin products for washing my face and so on. Clearasil face wash really dry's my skin and irritates it as do many others but simple is just amazing, its leaves my skin so soft and clear. I rarely have outbreaks of spots! These can be bought from anywhere, stores like Superdrug, Boots, Asda, Tescos all supply these.

Fudge Urban is another great product I have discovered. Recently I got about 5 inches cut off my hair so it is now just below my shoulder because I fancied a change and had seen a really nice styled hair that I wanted. I found the Sea Salt spray of the Fudge Urban brand is great for giving my hair the texture of beachy waves that I want considering my hair is naturally straight (very straight). It almost gives my really loose curls which I think is really great! It also smells really good, great for those of you who love coconut scents! This is currently £6.99 in stores but I purchased it on a buy one get on half price deal.

As a starting college present I also got some amazing boots from River Island. I had been wanting a pair of these for ages! The cut out boots! I had saw Miley Cyrus wearing a pair early on this year, and found them on Barney's. The really sad part is that they were £1,250 or something ridiculous like that! Then Topshop started doing them and they were still like £100 but then River Island brought out this pair for £45. (This is a party dance moment) They go with almost (if not) everything and they are so comfy! Best Present Ever!

The final thing I have been loving a lot, is an album which came out earlier this year. For many of you that know me very well will already have an understanding of what might be coming. 'Demi' by Demi Lovato is quite possibly one of the greatest albums I have heard this year. Not just because I love her so much but because all of the songs are pretty relatable and its one of those albums that can be great for whatever mood your in. It is seriously a great album. I highly recommend it!
