June 2012 Favourites!

Another month, another monthly favourites! So lets take a look at what Im loving this month...

Not many new products as I've been trying to save my money for DisneyLand, only a week today, Yayy!:)

Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Your Beauty Skin Makeup, Eruc Beige
For some reason, I haven't gotten round to reviewing this yet. Which is actually quite strange considering its been one of my holy grail, every day use's since Easter. This is the lightest shade I think, and Im quite pale even in summer so this is great for pale skinned girls! Its thin, but not to thin and blends with ease into the skin. I have normal, moisturised skin with oily patches around my nose. And this lasts all day on me!

MeMeMe Beat The Blues, Moonbeam
I've been loving this as a highlight this month! It's a sheer, shimmery pink shade which blends easily into the skin. I find some pink shades of blush really hard to wear on my skin, but this looks amazing. It lasts all day, but I won't be revealing to much as this is next on my hit list to review!

NYC Cheek Glow Blush, Central Park Pink
I think this was in one of my favourites a few months ago, but once again this has been pulled out my makeup draw everyday. I've been loving the nude, peachy shade of this blush. Aswell as its staying power, lasting almost all day!

Benefit Bad Gal Lash
I got this free with glamour magazine this month, as Im sure almost every other beauty blogger out there has been doing. I've been obessed with this mascara lately using it for a base, while layering with other mascaras. It gives volume, length and a coat of black mascara to your lashes.

Avon Glow Powder Eyeshadow, Golden Sand
My nana actually bought this product, mistaking it for something else and giving it to me. Its really hard to explain the colour of this eyeshadow other then a sort of yellow sand colour, likewise the name. After applying this over eye primer it lasts all day, and doesnt fade or crease. Strangely I've been wearing this with golds this month and it looks quite nice.

BeautyUK Lipstick, In The Buff
I got this a week or two ago, but didnt see the point of hauling it as I only got one product. Since purchasing this I've worn it non stop! Im in love with the scent of it. Mint, but not overpowering mint. However you can barely smell it once applied to the lips. Its a sort of  "my lips but better" shade but slightly more red. I'll definitely be reviewing this soon, so watch this space!

Review: MUA Professional Lip Boom with Alexandra Burke

I've so been looking forward to reviewing this product, I've got tones of positive things to say about this amazing holy grail product! I'm a bit late on reviewing it, but in case you don't know already MUA Pro Lip Booms are new to the MUA range, and were created with Alexandra Burke. They are £3 and come in 8 different shades, you can get them from Superdrug or the MUA website. I've got this little beauty in shade, Cheeky.

Lip Boom is basically a double ended lip product, it consists of a matte lipstick and a highlighting lip gloss

The lipstick is pale pink, and the highlighting lip gloss it slightly darker, but doesn't appear so as much on the lips. It also has chunks of glitter in.

One word to describe this Lip Boom is, Genius! Why hasn't anyone else ever thought of this sort of thing before?! Especially at the killer price of only £3. The lipstick is amazingly pigmented, likewise the lipsticks in the £1 range. However its also build able, so if you wanted to you could really pack on the colour. The highlighting lip gloss is the perfect match for the lipstick, I find applying this really gives that extra kick to the whole look. The highlighting lip gloss is quite gritty, but i wouldn't say it was overwhelmingly gritty. And did I forget to mention both the lipstick and lip gloss smell just like vanilla! However you can't smell it when its on the lips. 

You can get four looks out of one lip boom: 

1. Lipstick alone for a matte look.
2. Lipstick with highlighter applied just to the centre of your lips to create a full volume illusion.
3. Lipstick with highlighter all over for a super-glossy look.
4. Highlighter alone for a sheer pearl finish.

My favourite is either the highlighter alone, or the lipstick and highlighter applied all over the lips. So this Lip Boom really is a versatile product! Lasting power wise , I can get around 2-4 hours out of this. Which is way more then you could ask for considering the pricetag!

Overall I would recommend this Lip Boom to anyone who's a fan of lipstick! It also looks great on pale skinned girls, which from my experience is hard to find a lipstick that truly looks good with my skin tone. For the price you can't go wrong and out of 8 dazzling shades, I'm sure theres something for everyone! I've used this product everyday since I purchased it and I love it!
