My beauty loves







Today's post is going to consist of all my current beauty loves, from foundations to cheeks to makeup brushes and hair styling favourites. Im going to try not to ramble on as much as i normally do so we will just jump straight into it. 

Foundation Loves:
Laura Mercier silk creme foundation in soft ivory. This foundation is amazing, creamy, blendable and the perfect shade for my skin tone. You only need the smallest amount of this foundation to get beautiful coverage that looks like skin. 
Garnier BB cream for combo/oily skin in light. This is a bb cream with reasonable coverage, a very light feel and a glowy natural finish. The colour is slightly to dark for me but once blended it looks very natural and im loving it. 
Shiseido sun protection foundation in the lightest shade. This foundation it watery, light and has a beautiful glowy, natural finish which is what i have been loving for this summer. With the high spf (43) i have been using this on the hot and sunny days that we've been experiencing lately. 
Concealer love: Maybelline super stay 24 hour concealer in light, this concealer is full coverage and light enough to blend in with my skin. it stays in place all day and doesn't cake up.

Cheek Loves:
Smashbox bronze lights bronzer in suntan matte, this bronzer is the perfect shade of brown for my skin tone, with minimal to no orange in it, it doesn't make my face look dirty or orange, only give its a natural contour. 
Sleek blush in suede, This blush give my cheeks the perfect flush of dusty pink, while also giving it a subtle contour. 

Eye Loves:
Maybelline illegal lengths mascara, this mascara gives my lashes the perfect amount of length without them looking fake or spidery, it gives them a natural length and i love it.
Revlon eyelash curler, i have been absolutely adoring the curled eyelash look, it makes my eyes look much more open and my lashes look very long and ive been really enjoying curling my lashes with or without mascara.

Smashbox Master class palette. This palette has almost everything i would need for an eye look, the gel liners are my favourite, with brown and black being my most used, while also loving the variety of eyeshadows and cheek highlighters.
Naked2 palette. This palette speaks for itself, it gives a beautiful natural bronzed eye look without using excessive glitter or over the top colours.
Stilla in the know palette. This palette is my favourite of the 3 palettes Im mentioning in this post, it has all matte shades that i absolutely love for everyday natural look that i prefer when im not going out to an important event or at night. 

Makeup brush lovess:
Sephora precision powder brush. This brush is amazing for bronzing up my face and giving it a natural glow.
Real techniques buffing brush. This brush is perfect for liquid foundations, and really getting a natural glowing look and buffing foundation into the skin.
Sedona lace 480 round top brush. This brush has been my favourite brush for contouring my face, it fits perfectly in the contour of my cheeks while also being dense enough to blend the bronzer out.
Sigma flat top kabuki. This brush is also amazing for applying liquid and cream foundations, it gives a lovely flawless finish and it one of my favourites.
Elf stippling brush. This brush is perfect for applying my blush and gives a lovely natural look to the skin, while applying just the right amount of product. 

Hairstyle loves:
Macadamia oil leave in condition and healing oil. These products are moisturising and nourishing and make my hair feel soft and healthy while also taming frizz.
Tigi catwalk curlesque rock amplifier. This creme is amazing for allowing my hair to hold its natural wavy curl, only needing the smallest amount to do so, if you use to much this can cause your hair to become crunchy. 
Redkin anti-snap leave in protein treatment. This is a liquidy formula that once put on my hair makes it feels soft and moisturised while also protecting my ends from damage. 








So thats the end of my current beauty loves.
i hope this wasn't to boring or long winded. Let me know what your favourite products of this summer are.

Have a wonderful day
Jess xx
