Summer Beauty Hitlist 2014

We all need those outstanding beauty products for summer and these are mine. 

Featuring MAC, EOS, Moroccan Oil, Urban Decay, Tangle Teezer, Essie, Dermalogica, Real Techniques


1. MAC Mineralize Skinfinish 
This is one of the best highlighters around and my favourite one by far! Not much is needed to be applied onto the cheekbones, as it adds a subbtle shimmer to highlight and define the cheekbones. The colour is Soft and Gentle and costs £22 from MAC Cosmetics. Perfect for summer! 

2. Essie Nail Varnish
Corals, pinks and oranges are lovely in summer and this colour is too beautiful not to have. The colour is a neon coral called 'come here!'. This lovely bright and bold varnish will make a nail statement this summer for just £10.95 from lookfantastic.com

3. Real Techniques Core Collection
The ultimate make-up brush collection for £20.99 from lookfantastic.com, the collection includes the deatiler brush; used for concealer and lipstick, the pointed foundation brush, the buffing brush and the contour brush which is my personal favourite. Top Tip: when washing brushes use baby shampoo and hot water!

4. EOS Lip Balm
I'm in love and obsessed with these lip balms. My favourite so far is the starwberry sorbet shown in pink above. They each cost £5.99 from Selfridges&Co. Only a few applications are needed for the results of soft and smooth lips.

5. MAC Lipstick
The colour is Sunny Seoul and costs £15 from MAC Cosmetics. I fell in love with the colour instantly, perfect for that nude-pink lip for summer. It gives a cremesheen finsh which is my favourite and to make it last longer, apply a thin lip balm before you apply the lipstick.

6. Moroccan Oil
Perfect for hydrating dry and straw-like hair or even to smoothen and defrizz hair once dried, apply a small amount on towel dried hair before drying. I also find that my hair lasted longer throughtout the day. For 100ml it costs £31.85 and for 25ml it costs £13.45 both priced from lookfantastic.com 

7. Dermalogica Barrier Repair
This is my no.1 skincare product, I use it morming and night and it helps to soothe my skin. I love using this moisturiser as it can be used as a primer for make-up. It costs £35.60 from lookfantastic.com

8. Tangle Teezer
The best hair brush by far, gets rid of knots and it doesn't make your hair go static. I love it! The tangle teezer costs £10.20 from lookfantastic.com

9. Urban Decay Naked 3
I have Naked 2, but the Naked 3 eyeshadow palette has more pinky-nudes shadows which I love. I love the fact that Urban Decay eyeshadow as it lasts longer than most other brands, the palette costs £37 from lookfantastic.com
