Summer Beauty Favourites- Part 1

Since we are finally getting a hot summer in the UK *claps and cheers* I have had to adjust some of my beauty products to adapt to the heat and humidity. While doing this i have newly discovered and rediscovered some beauty products that i am now obsessed with and will be being repurchased for a very long time (sorry bank balance). These products have made this weather much more bearable as they keep me from not turning into a frizzy haired, smudged make-up, sweaty mess by the end of the day (not a look that I can pull off)

So...I thought that I would share some (well..A LOT) of these beauty favourites that I have accumulated this summer and hopefully these may help you if you are experiencing troubles adjusting to the hot weather too or you may even be loving some of these products already (There is a good reason why you should be).

I have seen the Garnier Micellar Water all over the 'blogging' and 'youtubing' world being raved about and being compared to the famous 'Biotherm' and there is a good reason why.. this product is A-MA-ZINGG! I'll put my hands up and admit that I am lazy when it comes to make-up removing and have resulted to make-up wipes in the past- which isn't the best way to remove make-up for your skin . However now I can finally remove my make-up just as easily with a product that feels just like water (not chemically at all) and its amazing for my skin. Since using this my skin has never looked better- I have very red blotchy skin and this has evened and toned it amazingly. And for the price that it is for such a big bottle, I couldn't recommend it enough; especially for someone thinking about purchasing Biotherm- this is the perfect dupe!

The famous Tangle Teaser- Do i even have to say any more? I have avoided the Tangle Teaser hype for a long time thinking "its just a brush, how can it be anything special" but boy was i wrong! This brush has changed my hairs life and it is forever thankful. I am forever bleaching my hair causing it to become very dry and in this summer heat it is drying out even more- causing extreme knots and tugs, ouch:(:(! Not only does this brush make brushing your hair completely painless, it also doesn't rip out your hair while doing so like a regular brush did to mine. This is perfect for keeping your hair not damaged in the heat of summer. oh..and did I mention the amazing colour and pattern range #obsessed

Bright nail varnishes- This is a must for any girl in summer, your toes are out in nice sandals for the world to see and you cant have dull unpainted toe nails (what a crime eh?) So having bright summery colours to give your hands and feet a makeover is a staple! I am loving the Barry M Gelly Hi Shine nail polishes in particular as they look like you've just had a Gellish manicure for a fraction of the price- what more could you want? and the colour range is amazing with every summer staple colour you could think of- perfection!

Now.. again I will be honest and admit that I am very lazy when it comes to moisturising my body, I always find it very time consumin; having to wait around all sticky waiting for it to dry and I always end up avoiding it unless I am fake tanning. But this Nivea in shower body moisturiser has made moisturising much easier and quicker and I now love doing it- wow something I never thought that I would say! I tend to have quite dry skin especially in summer under the heat so I have seen incredible results while using this product- I never thought the moisture would last after you've washed it off and dried yourself but WOW I was mistaken- I feel even more moisturised and my skin feels smoother than it ever has with a regular moisturiser. so this is a summer staple if you want shiny smooth skin! I also find it makes my tan stand out more after moisturising as your skin doesn't look dry and dull- and who doesn't want tanned skin eh?

I have lots more summer favourites to share but I have realised that I have rambled on a bit to much for one blog post- too excited over these product clearly! If you are interested in what other products I have been loving and I haven't bored you too much in this post *oops* then look out for my next blog post of part 2 that will be up straight after this.

let me know if you try any of these products, have been loving any of these products too and what products you have been loving during this hot summer!

lots of love
