My Summer Travelling Essentials!

Hey Girls!

Hope your all doing great! Todays post is about my summer travelling essentials. These products I have been using a lot over the past couple of months and I find that they have worked for me! So here they are!



1- Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector BB Cream:

This is my one stop shop for all my daily facial needs! In one step I moisturise, apply sunscreen and foundation. For my review click here.

2- Dior Amber Diamonds Face Powder:

I LOVE using this as my highlighter during the day and night as it gives me just the right amount of natural glow without the glitter! Check out my review here.

3- Bourjois Bronzing Powder:

I carry this with me but I use a little amount only to contour my face. It is just the right shade and isn't shiny on the face and stays put.

4- Rimmel Soft Kohl Kajal Eyeliner Pencil (in 071 Pure White):

Perfect for the wide doll eye effect especially when your travelling.

5- Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze and Eternal Gold:

These cream eye shadows are my most treasures items. Perfect for travelling or anyone on the go! Using my fingers I give a quick sweep of the shade I'm in the mood for and and I am done! Lasts all day long without creasing!

6- Maybelline Colour Sensation Lipstick in 190 Atomic Pink:

I really love this shade especially now in Summer as it is feminine and fun great for the summer nights out.

7- Lancome Lip Gloss in shade 321:
When I'm not rocking lipstick I love using lip gloss and this one I have been reaching for a lot lately. Keeps my lips soft, glossy and just a hint of colour. I also love the applicator really soft!

8- Clinique High Impact Mascara 01 Black:

This mascara really works well for my lashes a few coats and my lashes look thick and luscious without feeling heavy or brittle.

So these are my summer travel essentials that I have been reaching for constantly as I have been travelling- what are your travel essentials?

Stay tuned as I have another giveaway coming up really soon!

Have a great day!

Rimmel Glam Eyes HD Review

Hey everyone, so I am trying to get through a number of products to review for you guys and so I decided I would bring you my thoughts on the relativley new Rimmel Glam Eyes HD Eyeshadow palettes. Now I really love some of Rimmels products and I find that for the price they are quite smooth in application and texture but also they have a great colour pay off-especially their eye kohl pencils. So once I tried the tester for these babies in store, I was hooked I wanted every single palette but I held back and decided on two of the five that were there and I'm glad I didn't get them all. WHY?? Well as great as the colours and consistency of the eyeshadows the packaging is in my opinion horrendous!!!



So I picked up 005 English Rose and 006 Purple Reign. English Rose has a pinky-gold shade along with a brown and taupey shades and Purple Reign is just that a range of purples. The colours are absolutley gorgeous they are amazing on but getting to the little triangles with your brush doesn't help unless you use the sponge applicator tip to get in there but you still manage to get into the other color.
The Rimmels emblem of the union jack didn't work well as the colours are really to get to- except for the color in the middle which is in my opinion very annoying. But for the eyeshadows alone they are amazingly smooth and soft, hardly any fall out and they last a long time, (I have only worn these over my NYX eyeshadow base). In the whole range I find the colours are amazing and some of them actually remind of a few colours in the Urban Decay Naked palette. I would only recommend these to you who don't mind the challenge of getting to the colours in the smaller triangles but I really wish Rimmel had these palettes differently even the old style square quad would have been forgivable for such great eyeshadow quality.



What do you guys think? Have you tried these? Whats your favourite Rimmel product?
