July 2014 Beauty Favs

I missed last month because there wasn't anything super exciting on the rotation. These are a few products that I have fallen in love with/fallen back in love with over the past couple months! Click read more to see more information :)

Lancôme Star Bronzer

I talked about this already in the review of Lancome Summer Collection. I was sent this gem from Dave Lackie & I have been obsessed. I can honestly say that I am not a bronzer person, and this has changed my whole perspective on bronzer. I just dust it over the contour areas of my face, and it gives a subtle glow and bronzer. If you can still get your hands on it, do it! 

Sigma SS150

Okay so this brush is now called something else..F30 or something? I bought this back when Sigma first came out, and was a blatant copy of MAC brushes. I was never in love with the Sigma brushes, although I have heard that the quality has changed over the years. This brush in particular still sheds and is a tab prickly. I find that it applies the Lancome bronzer best, out of my current brush collection. This has made me want to possibly re-visit the thought of Sigma brushes. Have you guys tried them? What are your thoughts? 

Bioderma Sebium Global *

This cream claims to help acne-prone skin. Now I don't have any major acne issues, I just get clogged pores and some oiliness in the summer. I find that this keeps my skin clear, while keeping it moisturized. I am just surprised that it doesn't dry my skin out like most acne creams can. Well done Bioderma! 

Tweezerman Perfect Point Tweezers *

Picture
These are exclusive to Sephora, and I have used the basic slant Tweezerman tweezers for years. I got these sent to me from the company and didn't think much of it. I started using them, and I can never go back to basic slant again! These get EVERY little pesky hair with ease, they are super sharp and the grip and weight on them is great. You can tell that these are so well made, and with free sharpening for life you really can't go wrong! 

ART DECO Bronzing Glow Blusher

So first off, the packaging and blush/bronzerthing is stunning. It is a very soft creamy texture, with a nice pigment to it. I just swirl my blush brush in and focus on the middle (as you can clearly see where the pattern has faded most). My least favourite thing about products like this is the fact that I feel terrible for ruining the pattern! This one is totally worth ruining the pattern over though :) 

Clarins Instant Concealer Shade 02 * 

Picture
Picture
Now you are probably thinking "why is your pale arse using a shade 02?" and the answer is because Amy has really bad dark circles under her eyes and the best way to cover them is by having a slightly orange darker coloured concealer! The orange neutralizes the blue tones, and the colour matches the skin better so you don't have an "ashy/grey" look under the eyes. Anyways, now that you know basic colour theory. This concealer is amazing, it is clearly only for under my eyes and it works so well! It doesn't cake and sit oddly in my fine little lines, and it just basically looks flawless and helps with the darkness from being a night owl reading blogs and watching netflix. 

Do you guys have any favourites that you want to share this month? Link me to your blog posts because I love checking out other bloggers, it is my reason for staying up till the wee hours of the morning! Have you guys tried any of these products? 

Until next time,
