Its a cliche statement I know but I can't understand where the month of June went, it seemed like yesterday I was writing my May favourites! June was such a busy month and honestly my favourite of 2014 so far, (maybe turning 20 wasn't as bad as I thought it would be) it was filled with lovely weather which is completely rare and wonderful memories. I even attempted daily blogging which although I didn't make 30 posts exactly, I didn't post that little either, 20 something I think? which is still a massive achievement and this will be my last of the month so I thought it was only fitting to do my June beauty faves post.
If you read my whats in my makeup bag post (link here) you'll probably recognise most of these products, if not all, but they're items that probably haven't shown their face on my blog enough. Since its been so sunny I haven't been wearing that much makeup and therefore I've had less favourites in June, who in their right mind would put makeup on to lounge around the garden (ahem, my neighbour)
When I have ventured outside with friends and family however I've been sticking with a light emphasis on the light base which is quite unlike me but touch wood, I've been having clear skin lately and I hope its here to stay. Therefore the Maybelline BB cream (which has SPF 15) is the answer. I think this was the first BB cream I bought and its still a firm favourite, when it was released everyone complained that the ordinary bb cream was too dark so I picked up the oily skin version which is at least 2 shades lighter and when paired with my Rimmel Wake Me Up concealer they create the perfect light and glowy base.
As for cheeks I've been reaching for my Sleek face form palette as its the perfect trio - contour, blush and highlighter and is a lot easier to carry around with me for touch ups throughout the day. I've been using it on and off for a year nearly and there's barely a dent - definitely worth it! As for eyes I've been getting into using eyeliner again (I will perfect it at some point) to give my eyes a bit of definition and throughout June my favourite lip product style has been nudes, this is an unusual one for me since I usually like a statement lip but I've really been loving the nude lip and bronzed complexion look especially shade 3 from the Rimmel Kate Moss collection.
Thanks for reading, Jenny xo
