July Favourites

Sunday 3 August 2014

It’s safe to say I was pretty bad at blogging throughout the month of July but life and my own laziness kept getting in the way. Those are reasonable excuses right? Anyway I’ve returned so here are my July favourites. Whoop!



1. Lush Bubblegum Lip Scrub

This is quickly becoming my new favourite lip product. I went on a fizzy juice/soda binge for a little over a week which left my lips dry and flaky. As soon as the dry and flaky stage kicks in I immediately use this scrub and it makes my lips feel baby soft again (how soft is a baby? I’ve never understood that saying). It’s better used in small doses but it’s a great quick fix for dry, flaky lips.



2. Beats by Dr Dre

I know, I know, I’ve paid for a label and not quality headphones but hey, I like them. My Beats headphones were a Christmas present and they’ve rarely left my head since. I will admit they are better for listening to rap and hip hop but, as that’s predominately all I listen to, they work well for me. My Beats earphones were a recent purchase and were actually meant to be used for working out. Annoyingly these type of earphones fall out of my ears a lot so they’re currently being used to listen to old NFL games on the down low rather than for when I’m exercising. They’re doing a great job with their new use though so I’m not complaining.



3. Urban Decay Super Saturated Lip Color in Punch Drunk

That is one long title. I bought this last year after seeing the lovely Lisa Eldridge wearing it in a video (I can’t for the life of me remember which video it was) and I still adore it. It ended up back on my lips 2 weeks ago after my lipstick collection was randomly brought up in conversation. It’s not something I get to wear too often and it probably doesn’t suit me but I still love it all the same.



4. Solait Bronzer

I hunted high and low for a bronzer that wasn’t too dark, too orange or too shimmery a few years ago and that search brought me to Solait. I really liked Solait’s fake tan at the time (I probably still like it, I just haven’t fake tanned in over a year) so figured I couldn’t go wrong with the bronzer. I’m so glad I purchased it as it’s fairly light, it’s not even remotely close to being orange and there’s absolutely no shimmer. It’s an easy product to work with and, although I absolutely suck at contouring, it does what I need it to do.



5. Office Justice T Bar Sandals

If you read my last post you probably would’ve guessed that these would be featured in my favourites. It’s the colour of them that caught my eye but the design is what made me purchase them. They’re everything I look for in shoes and I’m a little gutted at the fact I haven’t been able to wear them for the last week (I’ve been forced into wearing flats and I’m hating it). I can’t wait to get my hideous feet back into these beautiful babies…take that out of context and it sounds incredibly morbid.

So there are my July Favourites. I have no idea how to end this post so I shall now thank you for reading and offer you a cookie.
