My Summer Essentials

Today I'm going to show you a few of my summer essentials, I have recently been loving all of these products and they are all affordable and really good!



First of all I have my Schwarzkopf Salt Spray, this adds a lot of texture to my hair and I think stays all day, you only need a few sprays to get a nice effect. I also use this on my hair when I have curled it, along with my normal hairspray as I find that it helps it stay put for longer. You can buy this product from Superdrug for £4.05 http://www.superdrug.com/got2b/beach-matt-texturizing-salt-spray/invt/619363 but if you have a Savers store near you, you can purchase it there for around £2.50 which is where I got mine from but I have only ever seen one Savers store.

My next summer essential is my Palmers Gradual Tan, I hardly ever tan naturally and when I do you can't really notice much of a difference but I find that when I use normal tans I go really orange or patchy. I have been looking to get a gradual tan for a while and then I found this, it looks exactly like a moisturizer and so you can kind of tell where you have put it on, once I had woke up from putting it on the night before you can tell there was a difference but it wasn't too dark, I had no patches and no streaks, after keeping this up for a few days I got a really nice natural looking tan. I highly recommend this product as you can definitely chose whether you want to have a subtle or a noticeable tan, you can buy it from Superdrug here for £3.56 http://www.superdrug.com/gradual-tan/palmers-cocoa-butter-natural-bronze-tan-lotion-250ml/invt/355798 but it is sometimes on offer in Boots.

Next is my Nivea Moisturizer, this is such an amazing moisturizer, it doesn't dry the quickest but it does a really good job, mine has not even got halfway and I have had it since Christmas so it is well worth buying, you can buy it here from Boots for only £4.28 http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&catalogId=11051&productId=11521&langId=-1&callingViewName&cm_mmc=Paid%20Search-_-Plusbox-_-Link-_-NIVEASoftRefreshinglySoftMoisturisingCream200ml&cm_mmc=bmm-_-google-_-Boots+Beauty-_-Beauty+-+PLAs

Next I have three lip products which I am just going to talk about all together, first is my Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter, I have this in the shade 080 Strawberry Shortcake, this is such a beautiful baby pink colour, it is quite sheer but it looks really pretty on and moisturizer my lips well, I am definitely going to be buying some more shades soon, you can purchase that here for £7.99 http://www.boots.com/en/Revlon-ColorBurst-8482-Lip-Butter_1252852/. Next is my MUA Lipstick, these lipsticks are absolutely amazing and overall the MUA brand is! The shade I am wearing the most at the moment is Shade 14, bare. It is really nice and pigmented, in my opinion it is just as good or even better than some other drugstore lipsticks which charge more, you can buy this at superdrug for an amazing price of £1 http://www.superdrug.com/events-2011/mua-makeup-academy-introducing-our-new-ps1-make-up-range-exclusive/page/muamakeupacademy#lips My final lip product is my Carmex Lip Balm, there isn't really much to say about this except for it's absolutely amazing, it is the best Lip Balm I've tried as I can instantly feel a difference after I've put it on! It isn't expensive either which makes it all the better, you can buy it here for £2.69 http://www.superdrug.com/carmex/carmex-classic-moisturising-lip-balm-10g/invt/725507

Next I have my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer which I know a lot of people talk about so I won't say too much, it is really good at covering any blemishes or imperfections, it's really cheap and I think worth every penny! I have Shade 1 which is Fair and I love it, you can buy it here for £4.19 http://www.boots.com/en/Collection-2000-Lasting-Perfection-Concealer_984434/

Last of all is my Aussie Leave In Cream, since its summer and my hair has to deal with a lot of heat this has really helped my hair and made it not completely die! I just apply it to the ends of my hair and I feel as thought it really does help, as well as fixing your hair from heat damage it also is a heat defense. This is definitely something I would recommend to anyone who has damaged hair from heat, I couldn't find the link for this but I know you can buy it from Boots and Superdrug.

I hope I haven't bored you, thankyou for reading!!:-)
