I Heart Summer!!

Image from Pinterest

I saw this tag doing the rounds and have finally got around to doing it now summer is on the way out! I have completely lost track of this week, having Monday off work has messed up my concept of days and it doesn't feel like it should be Friday tomorrow - hello again weekend!

Favourite bronzer for Summer?

I'm really not a bronzer kind of girl and if I try to look sunkissed or contoured I usually end up looking muddy but this summer I have been reaching for Bourjois Delice de Poudre Bronzing Powder which I haven't found too scary and it smells good enough to eat!

Favourite summer lip product?

I cannot bear lipstick when it's hot so it's been bye bye MAC and hello Bourjois Colour Boost Lip Crayons or Revlon lip butters. You still get a good colour pay off but not the heavy formula, perfect for summer.

Pool or beach?

I am definitely more of a pool lover, at least when you're sitting by the pool you don't get a bikini full of sand and you know there's always a bar nearby!

Must have styling product?

I use salt sprays quite a lot in the summer when I can sit in the garden and let my hair dry naturally, my most used salt spray is the Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray.

Sun bathing or fake tan?

Don't get me wrong, I really love sitting in the sun but I don't tan very well anyway so I have to have a little bit of help out of a bottle to get me to a nice colour plus that's the safest option anyway - fake tan fades but sun damage never does! 

Favourite summer drink?

If you find yourself in The Orange Tree you need to try a Rasperry Leotard, I've discovered it this summer and I am never going back it's the nicest cocktail EVER!!!! I've also drank quite a few fruity ciders in the gardens in the past few months!

Favourite summer nail polish?

Hands down it's Models Own Hedonist! The brightest coral that will ever grace your fingertips and it really enhances your tan.

Any summer traditions?

I can't say that I have any traditions really. There's always a few drunken barbecues thrown in there somewhere and me and Joel always make sure we go on a picnic to make use of the picnic basket!

Favourite summer scent?

How can I not say Summer in a bottle itself - Estee Lauder Bronze Goddess?! I have lived in this since May and I can't imagine a Summer without this smell now, I'm officially addicted.

Favourite BBQ food?

How can I choose?! I absolutely love all BBQ food!! I am partial to a burger but this year I've been obsessed with pork chops, thinking of them is making me hungry!

Favourite summer-proof product?

Everything can get a bit sticky and shiny in the summer so I would have to say my MAC Mineralize Skin finish that keeps that shine at bay!

Any summer plans?

Summer is drawing to a close now so I think I'm a bit late for Summer plans but I've still got a couple of nights out planned and me and Joel are taking a trip to London for a couple of days in September which I'm really, really excited about. Once this is all over and done with I'll be ready to welcome Autumn!

I hope you're all having a beautiful short week and if you do this tag then send me your link so I can have a nose!

Would You Rather? Beauty Edition Tag

Image from Weheartit & edited by me

I've never done a tag before but when I saw this one on the lovely Kayleigh's blog Couture Girl I thought that I would give it a go for a bit of fun!

Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eyeliners, lipsticks, and lipglosses or lose all of your palettes and eyeshadows?

A nice and easy one to start with! Definitely Palletes and eyeshadows, I'm more of a simple eyeliner flick kind of girl when it comes to my eye make up although I am trying to make a bit more of an effort by using eye shadows but I am a lip product junkie so my eyes will have to do without.

Would you rather chop off all your hair or never be able to cut it again?
Chop it off!!! Even though it has taken me a few years to grow my hair to the length it is now from a Gagaesque bob and It's finally boob length without the help of extensions a change is always nice and in 2016 it should be reunited with my boob once again! I think that's the better option than to have scraggly ends and an out of control fringe.

Would you rather have a coral cheek or a pink cheek?
I do love a peachy cheek so it would have to be a pink cheek, NARS Deep Throat and Orgasm are firm favourites of mine so pink all the way!

If you had £1000 to spend, Would you rather buy clothes or makeup?
I might be beauty obsessed but I do think I'd struggle to spend £1000 on make up and would end up with a lot of things that I'd never use. My wardrobe could do with a summer revamp so I think I would spend it on clothes, think of all the beautiful things you could buy?! I've got the mental wish list I just need the money now!

Would you rather apply lipstick as eyeliner, or eyeliner as lipstick?
You what?!?! Lipstick as eyeliner?! Is that even possible? You could get an eyeliner in a colour that would look good on your lips and it would kind of be like a lip pencil but hell no is lipstick coming anyway near my eyes, eyeliner all the way.

Would you rather only shop at MAC or Sephora?

Unfortunately in the UK we haven't got the pleasure of a Sephora but I've had a gander at the website a few times and the list of brands they offer is never ending so MAC I love you with a fiery passion but I need a bit of variety in my life so Sephora it is.

Would you rather only use one eyeshadow color or one lip color for the rest of your life?
I tend to stick to neutral eyeshadows anyway so only using one eyeshadow colour wouldn't bother me that much, as long as you don't take my eyeliner away I'm happy. I love changing my lip colour and a bright lip completely transforms a simple make up look or adds a little bit more to a simple outfit, please don't take my lipstick away!


Would you rather wear winter clothes in summer or summer clothes in winter?
Oh no, this question is horrible!! I love ditching my winter clothes at the first sight of sunshine but I am literally the coldest girl in the world, I'm pretty sure I'm made out of ice so I physically couldn't wear little dresses in winter, I need to be wrapped up. We also have more cold weather than hot so I wouldn't be suffering for long and winter clothes are made up of a lot of layers so couldn't I just strip one off if the sun came out?!

Would you rather dark nails or bright nails all year round?
I love bright nails and my all time favourite nail varnish is Models Own Hedonist and seeing as I spend every day in a dull uniform I need something to brighten it up.
 

Would you rather give up your favorite lip product or your favorite eye product?
If they're only taking my favourite product then they can have my favourite lip product because that is ever changing and it'll be something different in a couple of weeks but my favourite eye product is always going to be my beloved eyeliner, take that away at your own risk!


Would you rather only be able to wear your hair in a pony tail or a messy bun?
Hmmm, I'm thinking messy bun because my hair is quite long and sometimes it's nice to just get it all scraped up and out the way for a bit.


Would your rather never being able to paint your nails again or never use lipgloss?
I can't stand sticky lip gloss so this is an easy one. I'm a lipstick girl through and through so no more lip gloss wouldn't phase me and I love my nail varnishes. I think that a nail colour can bring an outfit together so bye bye sticky lips.

Would you rather shave your eyebrows and have none at all? or sharpie them in everyday?

Oh god, I don't even want to think about this!! Eyebrows are an important facial  feature and I would look completely bonkers without them so pass me the most natural coloured Sharpie!!

Would you rather live without makeup or nail polish?

Nail polish all the way, my naked nails aren't as gross as my naked face!!!!

If you've just read all of this then then tag you're it, if you give it a go make sure to send me a link so I can read your answers!
