I thought today would be a perfect day to make a blog post all about the products I have been loving throughout Summer which is well and truly over well for having nice weather and wearing summery clothes it is! for me anyway! For the past few days I have been cold everyday! And it keeps raining at the most annoying times! ugh one step closer to winter I suppose!
So I've been loving a primer, foundation, concealer, a contour kit and a mascara, all of which are drugstore so are easy to get hold of for a great, affordable price too. But just because I have been using them a lot this Summer doesn't mean I wont carry on using them, because I certainly will!
So the primer I have been using has been the Body Shop's Instablur which I think really does make my makeup last all the bit longer that I need it too, which has been perfect this Summer as with having combination skin, I have needed this in my oily parts where makeup seems to slip off haha! It has been a godsend to me and I wish I tried it sooner.
Body Shop's Instablur Primer - £14
The foundation and concealer I have been loving are both from Rimmel London, one of my favourite drugstore brands!
The foundation is the Match perfection foundation and I love this one for a good medium coverage I would say with the amount I use anyway it gives me a medium coverage, I love the consistency too which is a weird thing to say but some foundations are too watery but this one is a good in between and offers good coverage for small imperfections and blemishes if you are looking for a foundation like that I would try this one!
Rimmel Match Perfection Foundation - £7.99
I am loving the wake me up concealer for just concealing dark circles under my eyes, but it doesn't work well on spots for be as it is a brightening concealer and has little shimmers in, and I definitely don't want my blemishes sticking out more!
Rimmel wake me up concealer - £5.49
The Maybelline Lash sensational has been my lash favourite and it makes me lashes appear so much more lengthened and volumised, I tried this after I used a small sample of the Benefit Roller Lash and it's supposed to be a dupe but I think this one is SO much better! It is amazing and it does beat most high end mascara's I have tried and It just makes your eyelashes so much bigger, and I have such short lashes I find it hard to find a mascara which will lengthen and add volume to thicken my lashes, but this one has it all!
Maybelline Lash sensational Mascara - £7.99
Last but not least is the Seventeen contour kit, which I recently featured in my Seventeen Makeup Haul go give that a read if you'd like to see what else I got and also see the inside of the kit! But it is a lovely little contour kit which just has a contour and highlight shade, and I must admit i have only been using it for maybe two weeks or less but I love both the highlight shade and the contour shade, as it can be built up to your desired contour look, it doesn't look too orangey or too brown toned, it just looks lovely, the only thing I would say is that I have the shade medium and I do have to build it up a few times, but for the price I love it and I really enjoy using it.
Seventeen Define and Conquer Contour Kit - £5.99
Ah thanks for the review, I definitely want to try the Maybelline mascara, it sounds amazing!

Yes me too, it's amazing for that! You should try the lash sensational and believe it or not I've never tried the falsies! Do want to give it a go though, but this one is amazing I don't know whether to or not! (:
