The Lancôme x Proenza Schouler collection contains two variations of an Eye Palette (£50) which are available in a cool or warm option. I personally love the warm palette because I think the orangey tones would look gorgeous this coming Autumn. I was also super excited to see a Cushion Highlighter (£30) because by now you know I love cushion products more than anything in this world. There are also four shades of L’Absolu Rouge Lipsticks which cost £25.50 each, three shades of the iconic Matte Shakers (£19.50), four shades of the Lip Kajal Duo (£25.50) which are cool because they come with a lip pencil and matte lipstick at one end, and a satin gloss at the other,  four shades of Ombre Hypnôse Kajals (£20) and last but certainly not least a burgundy shade of the Monsieur Big (£21).

Of course I can’t head to the beach without a bottle of sunscreen, and for me the *Shiseido Expert Sun Ageing Protection Lotion (SPF50+) is the one that makes the cut. What I love about this stuff is that it never feels heavy or sticky on my skin; it’s a dream to apply and soaks in pretty much instantly! This *MV Organics Rose Hydrating Mist gives my skin a boost of extra hydration, helps to lock in moisture and feels super refreshing on a hot, sunny day. It’s easy to forget that lips are vulnerable to sun damage too, so I always make sure to have one of the *Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Lip Protectant Sticks in my beach bag.

I’ve missed my family every day ever since I moved to London all those years ago, but since living in my new apartment I think I’ve started to miss them even more! I can’t tell you how nice it felt to spend a whole week at my Mom’s house with her and my Grandma (and Louis Duncan of course! ) Ahhhh….! I also went for Taco Tuesday with my brother and his friends and went road trippin’ with Eric and my Dad to go and see my Grandmama.

I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned the Mixa Restoring Body Lotion in a fair few favourites videos over the years! This lotion is perfect for dry and sensitive skin since the formula is enriched with with tons of dreamy ingredients like calming oat milk and nourishing shea butter. Mixa lotions feel super duper silky smooth to apply and leave your body feeling baby soft from morning till’ night. Natural products can often be on the pricier end of the spectrum but the Yope natural shower gel is an inexpensive green beauty product that I’ve been using for years.
