So… I know I need to get back into blogging properly, and regain your trust and forgiveness for once again abandoning you without explanation . I’ll begin my road to redemption by telling you the beauty bits I was loving in September.
Paul Mitchell Ultimate Color Repair Shampoo and Conditioner
I know what you’re thinking – you’re banging on about Paul Mitchell, again? Hey , if your hair looked and felt as amazing as mine does, you too would be singing their praises all day err’day . This new release for coloured hair has been leaving my coloured hair feeling so soft, nourished and healthy that I’m seriously debating buying the full size.
Benefit Bella Bamba Blush
As I have joined the dark side (I mean hair-wise!) , I quickly realised that I needed to add some “colour” into my face – I was looking rather pale! This super bright blush has been perfect for this. Whilst it is advisable not to use a heavy hand with this particular blush, if you have a light hand it gives you a lovely, flattering glow .
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation
It’s been ages since I’ve worn a heavy base; I have been sticking to tinted moisturisers and BB creams for their easy, quick and hydrating coverage. However , I have been swayed back into wearing foundation again; this offering from Rimmel’s vast line of foundation gives medium coverage with a dewy, soft finish . What I love the most about this foundation is that even though it is from the high street, it suits my pale skintone an d doesn’t leave me orange at the end of the day.
Bourjois Java Rice Powder
Finally, I have been pairing this highlighter from Bourjois with the Bella Bamba blush; adding a subtle glow on my (non-existent) cheekbones. I personally feel this powder highlighter gives a better effect on my skin then other baked or liquid highlighters. I like to use this highlighter with the Real Techniques Contour Brush on my cheekbones, temples and my brow bone if I’m feeling fancy.
What were you loving in September?
