June Beauty Favourites!

This month the sun finally seems to have showed it's face in England and because of this some products that i've been using seem to be more Summer themed. I've rediscovered some bits from last year as well as treated myself to two new base products which I can't stop using!
Something that I pull out every Summer is the Garnier Summer Body Gradual Tanner, this stuff is pretty awesome at making my pasty pins looking a lot more human. It has smells lovely and is so moisturising. The other body product i've been loving lately is The Body Shop Peppermint Intensive Foot Rescue, I love the peppermint range of foot products from the body shop and this smells lovely and leaves my feet feeling super soft.
Only one skincare product this month, the Oskia Renaissance Mask. This is another glycolic acid based mask that smells like roses and leaves my skin feeling smooth and refreshed. It feels gentle on the skin too which I like. I only have a sample size of this but I might have to get the full size although it is annoyingly expensive.
Onto some base products, i've been loving the Witch Anti Blemish Skin Clearing Primer this month. I've had this a while but never thought much of it till I dug it out this month. The texture reminds me a lot of the Laura Mercier Foundation Primer which I love but this is a lot cheaper. It keeps my make-up in place all day and helps with oil control. For concealer i've been using the Vichy Dermablend Foundation, this has been on my wishlist for a while and it is amazing at covering blemishes and scarring. If you have acne prone skin I would definitely recommend this. To add some glow to my skin i've been using the Clarins Instant Light Complexion Perfector in Rose Shimmer. This can be used as a primer, mixed in with foundation or as a highlighter. It is such a great multipurpose product and really does help my skin look more glowing. 
I've been loving the Illamasqua Cream Pigment in Androgen this month. This is a coraly pink shade which can be used on the cheeks and lips. The thing I love most about this is that it lasts all day on me and is very pigmented. The other cheek product is the Bourjous Bronzing Primer, i've been loving using this as a cream contour because it gives such a lovely natural tanned look to the skin, oh and it smells divine too!
I dug out the Maybelline Kohl Express Waterproof Eyeliner in Brown Gleam for creating a quick smokey eye when in a rush. This is creamy so you can blend it all over the lid but when it's set it won't budge all day. For nails i've been wearing the Rimmel Salon Pro Polish in Summer Orange for most of the month. This is the perfect orange toned red which lasts a week on the nails without chipping! 

So that's my favourites for this month, i'm happy that i've rediscovered some products this month. I think there will be a lot more skincare favourites next month after this weeks trip to Paris though!

What have been your favourite beauty products this month?
