June Beauty Favourites!

With the weather getting a little warmer i've been keeping things simple when it comes to make. Less definitely being more. Skincare i've been keeping simple, however i've added two new product, one of which is an old favourite i'm glad to be using again.
Although it's been warmer my skin has still been looking a little pale. As always i've been reaching for the Garnier Summer Body Moisturising Lotion. I use the light version all over to give a natural looking tan/glow to the skin, the best thing is it doesn't smell bad and moisturises the skin. To add some texture to my hair i've been using the Vo5 Plump It Up Dry Backcomb Spray, this doesn't add as much texture as some sprays but adds a subtle amount of volume without your feeling like it has a lot of product in it. 
So the new addition to my skincare routine has been the Caudalie Vinosource SOS Thirst Quenching Serum. I love how light this feels on the skin yet packs in some hydration. I use this in the morning as I find makeup applies really well over the top. The old favourite is the Clean & Clear Dual Action Moisturiser. My skin has been breaking out a little at the end of the month and I thought I would go back to this as it always helps with oil control and keeping spots at bay.
I took a few different base products with me to Stockholm but ended up wearing the NARS Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturiser most days. When it's warm I want something light with some decent coverage as well as some SPF. This definitely does all of that whilst looking very natural. I haven't bought too many new products recently but something I did pick up is the Maybelline Dream Sun Terra Sun Bronzer in Golden Tropic, this comes with a light bronzer, perfect for pale skin and a lovely peachy pink blush. Perfect for Summer, the two look really nice together and it's all i've really been wearing recently.
As i've mentioned i've been keeping my makeup pretty simple recently. I've been lining to tight line with the Rimmel Scandaleyes Gel Eyeliner in Brown. I find brown looks a lot softer on my eyes and with this one being waterproof it doesn't move around during the day. My allergies have been pretty bad this month so i've been leaning towards a waterproof mascara. The one i've been loving is the Max Factor False Lash Effect in Black/Brown. I got this in a free gift set a few months ago and I really like it. It looks fairly natural on the lashes and doesn't flake. The best thing is that it is really a pain to remove like some waterproof formulas. 
On my nails for most of the month I had the Rimmel Salon Pro polish in Summer Orange. This is one of my favourite shades to wear in Summer, it is the perfect red with a hint of orange. I find this formula doesn't chip too fast either. For lips i've been loving the Bourjois Rouge Edition Velvet's again this time in the shade Peach Club. I love this long wearing formula as it really doesn't budge, this shade is also the perfect peach shade.

So those are this months favourites, a good amount of old favourites as i've been trying not to spend as much recently. Sometimes it is good to shop your own stash and since what you used to love. What products have you been loving this month?
