JULY MAKEUP FAVOURITES

Aloha Bandellas

I decided to do a makeup favorites this month because I have recently tried out new products. Some of them being totes amazing and others rather disappointing (I'll leave those for another time). These items i have found myself been reaching for on a daily basis, so its not really heavy coverage lets go to fashion week with products but rather products which you could use on an everyday basis or if you (like me) just enjoy a neutral make up look. I hope you enjoy and here we go...




1) Bourjois Chocolate bronzer: apart from it smelling amazing and being super affordable, it also works as an amazing contouring powder especially if you looking a subtlety.  I am very pale so I always grab this to finish off my natural make up look!


2)Revlon Photoready BB Cream (030 medium): I find that Revlon as a brand is highly understated. I would go as far as saying it is probably one of the best 'drugstore/highstreet/clicks' product on the market. This BB cream is the best one I have used (yes i fell into the BB cream trap) but I have to admit this is amazing. Its coverage is 11 out of 10 and it is long lasting. I have dry skin so I find the thick, creamy consistency nourishing. This has been part of my daily makeup routine for about 3 weeks now, I even choose it above my foundation. So revlon BB cream for the win!

3)Mac select coverup concealer (NC30): Theres not much to say expect BEST CONCEALER EVER. This alongside the BB cream leaves your skin looking flawless yet feeling make up free. Hashtag hallelujah for that!

4) Estee Lauder Sumptuous Mascara: I am sort of a mascara snob hence this high end mascara, the reason for this is that my mom always told me that if you don't use a proper products for your eyes, your eyelashes will fall out, true or faux I want my eyelashes thank you. This double wear mascara is non clump and doesn't leave you with panda eyes by the end of the day, so if you going to spoil yourself, do it with this masacara ;)

5)Tanya Burr Lipgloss (Aurora): OMG OMG, when I got my hands on this I freaked out (thanks Tasneem). I have wanted this since they were launched as Tanya Burr is my favourite beauty youtuber. Her glosses are amazeballs and smells so yum. LOVE IT FOREVER!!!

So that is the bucket of July favorites for this month. Let me know what your favourites were this month and I'll see you next time
