Hello! Whats that I have been consistent for over a week someone give me a medal please, if you are a blogger and also work full time please give me some tips as its so difficult! However todays post is going to be my august favourites, I haven't done a favourites blog post since April so you can gather I have a lot of things to share!

First of my favourites this month is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Modern Renaissance palette, I know I am about 12 months late to this hype but now I get it. I will admit I cringed paying £42 for a palette with like 15 shades in, but I can honestly say these are the best eye shadows I have every used (and I have bought a hell of a lot of palettes). I have clung to the orange/browns and highlight colours on the left side of the palette, they work perfectly for everyday looks however I can turn them looks into full glam looks! That moves me onto another one of my favourites this month also by Anastasia Beverly hills, it is the cream contour kit. This is another golden oldie for them. It is the best for achieving a full glam sharp contour and I really recommend this product I either use a fluffy angled brush or beauty blender to blend in the contour!

Now for a hair care favourite, I have very long hair that I have a love hate relationship with as it takes so long to dry, gets very oily and is a cow to brush through without ripping half my scalp out. When L'oreal brought out their Dream Lengths range I was intrigued, and I have not looked back it has changed my hair game completely. I no longer have to deal with notty hair, it is always soft and shiny and styles so well. So if you have long or even thick hair then try this shampoo and conditioner out, it obviously wont agree with everyone but its worth a go!


I am a fragrance hoarder, you name it I have probably owned it or smelt it before, my new favourite is the Jimmy Choo Fever, now I don't actually own this one I just spray it in work every single day (perks of working in retail). I am terrible at explaining scents all I can say its very warm,  blackcurranty and Christmassy.

I will admit when liquid lipsticks came around I avoided them at all cost as I hate matte lipsticks, however I work with the company Love Me Beauty now and then on Instagram posts and they kindly sent me their liquid lipsticks and I am 100% converted they are amazing, they don't dry out your lips like I thought and are actually very wet on the lips rather than dry! I have a promo code too which is 'MELISSAJ05' which gives you a free £5 voucher there no min spend either, so you could practically get some free make up!



My skin is my biggest project atm, especially since joining the blogging community I feel like I am trying out tons more products so I can review them. I have been loving the L'oreal Hydra Genius, I have been in the skin a lot lately and it has been so hot in the UK, I have found it to really cool down my skin at the end of the day and calm my sun burnt skin! It is almost like a watery jelly substance like after sun!
