August Faves!

I know, I know, August isn't over yet (thank god!) But I was way to exited to wait to tell you my August favorites, this is going to include things I do own and I do not yet own :)

1. Barry M Nail paints, the colours are absolutely gorgeous and reasonably original and for only £2.95 I could buy them all! ( But I'm not going to because I do have some amount of self control) Other than the colours being great and the price being so inexpensive; I think it's the names that grab me... I'm not sure why though.. anyways here's a lovely list of my favorite shades that I just HAVE to get my hands on! :
Mushroom, Strawberry Ice-cream, Blueberry Ice-cream, navy, grey and i'm in two minds about 'spring green' I recommend you check them out!


2. 'Dove gofresh energising grapefruit and lemongrass scent anti-perspirant deodorant.' (pheww that was a big one!) I love the summery smell of this and the fact that it has 0% alcohol, keeps you dry and smelling delightful for 48hours, contains no trace of parabens AND lets your skin breathe, makes this the best deodrant ever!.. well for me, anyway! I hear the cucumber one smells lovely too- that ones next on my list!

3. LUSH's 'The Soft Coeur" massage bar...OMG the best smell that has ever touched my nose! It keeps my skin sooo soft and smelling gorgeous till I next hop in the shower (or bath) and the fact it has a bit of REAL chocolate in the middle, is just the cherry on top of the cake!
The natural ingredients are : Shea Butter, honey, cocoa powder, almond oil, and sweet wild orange oil - oohh how fancy!
Heres how LUSH explains this amazing little product:

"The honey toffee bar with a soft core. The Soft Coeur was designed for a romantic tryst. It got its name from its chocolate and honey soft centre, which you can melt and smooth all over your lover's body to make him or her extra tasty. It came about after a request for a massage bar with a soft centre, which Helen got to work on straight away."

( I am aware it says to massage it all over your lovers body, but i just rub it on my own body when I get out the shower, as if it were a moisturizer - still just as good!)

4. Rimmel Natural Bronzer - it's cheap, it's cheerful and i use it everyday, its very natural looking and dosen't contain any of shimmer - it's perfect for a summery glow!

5. Sorry, another 'bronzing product' but 'Lee stafford fake my tan instant tanning lotion, wash off, matt finish' is something I wear everyday! I'm not particularly fond of the packaging, but this is just what i need to put on my cheeks and cheekbones everyday to keep me looking NATURALLY sun-kissed throughout the day! It also has Olive not Orange Undertones! ;)

6. DRY SHAMPOO! I've been meaning to pick up some dry shampoo for a while and the other day I popped into 'boots' and picked up 'batiste blush' dry shampoo. This is probably the most popular dry shampoo in the UK and it's pretty in-expensive for £2.1o ( I think! Don't take my word for it!) I have been using this most days now, and it is doing it's job.. however I think next time I'll try the 'original' one, rather than the 'blush' one, because it kind of smells of old lady perfume! I hear tresseme I have one out, but i'll have to do my research on it!

soo yehh, thats my August Favorites, sorry it's a bit boring - my budget was a bit tight this month!!

God Bless xxx
