5 beauty summer essentials

Hellooo. I haven't posted on this blog in ages, and I mean agess. Let's just say I almost 'forgot' about it? I love blogging and all, but it wasn't top of my list in terms of things I needed to do! I also had a mind blank and had absolutely no ideas . Whenever I did I either forgot to write them down, or realised it was way out of my blogging capacity to achieve them. Anyway I had a splurge of creative ideas and this was one... enjoy!




1. Sea Salt spray


This is perfect to enhance second day curls or to give a beachy look to just normal hair. I never really do anything with my hair in the summer, especially when it is hot, I just tend to scrape it back into a pony tail, so this is perfect for when you have those lazy days.

2. A light/ pastel colour nail polish


White or very light pinks go well with almost any outfit- picture some almond white nails, a white patterned top, some stylish black strapped sandals and an a-lined denim skirt. Ahhh summer.

3. Primer


I cannot express how well primer works. Since my friend bought me the Baby Skin instant pore eraser, I have been using primer every day. It mattifys the finish of your makeup (not that I wear too much, even just concealer) and stops everything sliding off your face because of the heat.

4. lip balm

Often my lips get dry in the sun so a lip balm is perfect, even though this might be an obvious one! Sometimes a tinted lip balm goes well, but most of the time I just want to go natural (eos' are good for the job).

5. shampoo


Lets be honest, there is no better feeling than super soft hair that isn't horrible and greasy. I heard about OGX and wondered what the hype was about. And now I know. The first time I used the Moroccan Argan Oil range I fell in love. It does take time to wash out, but trust me, that extra 3 mins will save your next two- three days (in terms of hair).
