June Favourites


By the time this goes live on the blog, it'll be my birthday the following day (woohoo!), so I am welcoming July with open arms! Before I get too excited and completely off topic about the anniversary of my birth, let's talk about what I have been loving throughout the month of June.

BOURJOIS HEALTHY MIX FOUNDATION

I wrote an in depth review on this revamped foundation earlier in the month (you can find it here in case you missed it), and I think it's an absolute winner! I don't tend to reach for hydrating formulas because of my oily skin type, but I have been loving it in Winter and it just gives my complexion this natural, youthful glow. It has been the ONLY foundation I have been putting on my face lately and I cannot recommend it enough!  


SECRETS OF A BEAUTY QUEEN BY STEPHANIE DARLING

A book by one of Australia's most accomplished beauty journalists? Yes please! This book is filled with beauty tips, worldly advice and must-have products for the beauty fiend. I thoroughly enjoyed the read, and it's just one of those books that you'll always come back to when you're looking for honest advice and expert techniques. It would also make a wonderful gift for the beauty lover in your life.



URBAN DECAY OPTICAL ILLUSION COMPLEXION PRIMER

I'm sure it's no surprise to any of you that this primer is in my June favourites because I've talked so much about how I adore it! I believe this is very well worth the money in the way it gives my skin this beautiful soft focus effect, and it keeps my makeup in place all day long. It provides such a good base for my foundation by smoothing everything out (as well as filling in pores and fine lines) and it feels like velvet on the skin.


L'OREAL COLOUR RICHE LIPSTICK 

This particular lipstick has been sitting in my handbag all month and it's such an effortless lip colour to wear for day to day. What I love about this range is how incredibly moisturising they feel on the lips, and 'Beige A Nu' is a pretty nude with a pink undertone which is right up my alley. The pigmentation is great and it also wears quite well throughout the day. I like to apply a thin layer and then dab it in with my fingertips for more of a softer and diffused look and I am good to go!
