July Favourites

July has been a bit of whirlwind for work and at home for me, I've got lots of things going on at the moment so the month has literally just flown by and yes I know I say this every month. So it's time for my monthly favourites yet again and it's quite a mixed bag this month. 

First up, lets start with skincare. I have been absolutely loving the Clinique Turnaround Revitalizing collection at the moment. I currently own the Treatment Oil and the Serum, both of which I love. After using these for the past month I have really noticed a difference in my skin, it's a lot more even in tone, plumper and hydrated. I don't have half as many dry patches that I normally have and my skin just looks generally healthier and glowing and I put this solely down to these products. I have loved these products so much that I will also be purchasing the daytime and evening moisturisers from the same collection next month. Also for skincare I have really been enjoying using these Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Facial Pads, these facial pads are so easy to use and give great results. I have used these in the past but pretty much forgot about them and stopped using them, not sure why, but I recently rediscovered them in my beauty cabinet and thought I would give them another go. I'm so glad I did. I have had no where near as many blemishes whilst using these and my skin is noticeably smooth and supple to touch. 

On to body care. I have been using this Right Guard Vitamin C Pink Grapefruit Shower Gel. I don't always like gel based fruity shower gels as they can sometimes dry my skin out but this is actually pretty moisturising on the skin and plus the scent is just so fruity. It instantly awakens my senses in the morning and the scent lingers on my skin all day. I have also been loving the Sanctuary Creme Souffle as a body moisturiser, this is so hydrating and a little really goes a long way. 

Then for makeup, I have really been loving this duo. The Clarins Everlasting Foundation and Soap & Glory Hocus Focus are like a match made in heaven. This is my all time favourite foundation, it lasts all day long and when mixed with the Hocus Focus it gives a really great dewy finish to the skin. And then I have another duo that I have been using for my eyes, the L'Oreal Color Riche L'Ombre Pure Eye Shadow in shade 507 Lumiere. This is a light pink shade with a golden shimmer to it. It gives a really pretty effect on the eye lids when I don't want something too heavy but enough colour to add a subtle shimmer. Along with the eye shadow I have been adding a flick of the Bourjois Liquid Eye Liner to give a feminine finish to the look. 

So that's it, my July favourites. Have you tried any of these products?
