Summer Blush | Beauty

I have here a few more images from my previous blog post, Summer Blush, that show the beauty side of things a little more clearly, which is why I thought I’d tell you about the products I used to achieve this Summer look.

Firstly, I’ve got to talk about my new foundation that I haven’t been able to put down! It’s the Hourglass Veil Fluid Foundation. It’s life changing! I usually limit wearing foundation to occasions because I don’t like the feeling of it on my skin – it’s always too sticky and I’m constantly aware of it on my face. But this Veil Foundation leaves a beautiful light and airbrushed finish without caking it on. 

For the cheeks I’ve used a small amount of the Zoeva Luxe Colour Blush in Gentle Touch – the tiniest amount goes a long way so go easy on it! I gently brush it along the apples of my cheeks and stroke outwards.

A Summer look wouldn’t be complete without a little glowy shimmer! To achieve that I used the Charlotte Tilbury Dreamy Glow Highlighter. If the gorgeous packaging isn’t enough to tempt you, the result it gives certainly will! I like it because it’s not too heavy and you can build it up easily. I like just a subtle highlight along my cheekbones and brow bone. 

I lined my lips with the L’Oreal Paris Infallible Lip Liner in Stay Ultraviolet and filled them in with the Charlotte Tilbury Lipstick in Miss Kensington, which is a matte nude colour. I love the end result the combination of these two products give.
