Hello everyone!
I know that this is the cliché thing that everyone says, but I really cannot believe how fast this year is going and that we are now in September! August is one of my favourite months for many reasons. My birthday is in August. August usually has lovely weather here in the UK and August is when the nights start to draw in sooner and it starts to feel a little more like autumn, which is my favourite time of year! I don't have too many favourites this month because I haven't really tried anything new because I'm desperately trying to use up products from my excessive stash, so have just been sticking to something until it's completely gone. So, on with the favourites.
M.A.C Lipstick in Creme Cup - This lipstick is the only lipstick I have been reaching for this month. It is the perfect pinky nude colour and perfect for summer. It goes with any make-up look that you want to go for, just perfect. It is a cremesheen formula, so goes on the lips lovely and creamy and it is really moisturising.
Maybelline Baby Lips - Lip balm has been an absolute essential for me this month. Like I said at the start of this post, this is the time of year when the nights draw in sooner and it starts to feel more like autumn. Here in the UK it has been quite cold over the last few weeks and as the temperature changed so suddenly, my skin wasn't ready for it and neither were my lips so my lips have been constantly chapped which is why this is in my favourites. My baby lips has been everywhere with me, and has been a total saviour for my very sore and chapped lips.
The Body Shop Cranberry Joy Hand Cream - As I said before with the lip balm, the temperature changed suddenly where I live and so my hand also started to get really dry, much more than they usually would so this has been another thing that hasn't really left my side throughout the month. This is quite a thick hand cream so really moisturising and sinks in really quickly, so you're not left with sticky hands and can't get on with things while you're waiting for it to sink in.
Soap & Glory Scrub Your Nose In It - The skin on my face was also affected by the change in temperature, which is why this is making an appearance here today. I used a little bit of this almost every morning just to help get rid of any dry flaky skin that was appearing on my face. As a bonus, this also helped with any blackheads making an appearance too. Using this along with my Hydraluron Moisture Booster has really helped to combat my dry skin and leave it smooth on a day to day basis.
Lee Stafford Hair Growth Treatment - I love the way that this product leaves my hair feeling. Once my hair is dry, it leaves it feeling so soft and silky and I really feel that this has made a massive difference to my hair. I naturally have quite frizzy hair and I have also noticed that when I use this, my hair drys a lot less frizzy. Using this every other time I wash my hair, I have noticed a real difference in the healthiness of my hair and am definitely going to continue using and repurchasing for a long time, or until I find something I like more which I don't think is likely!
