August Favourites 2015

Saturday, 29 August 2015



I rarely try enough products to warrant one of these posts each month but I've been trying some new things lately that I've really loved. If you've been reading my blog in the last couple of months, you may remember a post I did on my new Victoria's Secret Pure Seduction scent.  I've had it for around two months now and its getting to be one of my favourites. Its slightly musky without being too heavy which I really like.  My next favourite item is, the Rimmel Sun Shimmer Instant Tan. I used to really love this but forgot about it until I needed something instant a couple weeks back. It gives a fab  even colour almost straight away. I'm quite fair and the medium gives me a really nice natural looking tan. My only real problem with this is that it's not water resistant at all. My final favourite is the Lacura Moisturising Body Lotion. This is from Aldi's skin care range, and to be honest I was VERY skeptical of using this as I have such sensitive skin, but this is one of the best body moisturisers I've ever used. I used it after shaving my legs and my legs are still really soft, 3 days later, which is really really good for me.

Favourite Instagram Accounts

Saturday, 8 August 2015


Instagram is one of my favourite social media apps. Its where I sometimes find inspiration for a post or it's great to find out about new products and releases and such. I do spend a considerable amount of time on it, so I've found some accounts I really like. *Shameless self promo to follow* If you'd like you can follow me @missemmalouise12, which is also linked in the sidebar. 

One of my favourites is meghanrienks. She is one of my favourite Youtubers, and I love her theme on instagram. Its so white and bright and amazing. She also has great style and her makeup is pretty. And just goals, pure goals right there. 

Another Instagram account I love is inthefrow. First off her hair, its so amazing. And purple. And pretty. She also has amazing style and is a fellow blogger. She posts lots of photos of her outfits which are amazing and make me want to go shopping and buy all of the clothes. 

I also love nikkietutorials. She's a makeup artist and Youtube if you haven't already heard from her. Her makeup skills are everything I wish I could have. She also posts mini tutorials of her looks which are great and are useful if you're lacking inspiration.

Favourite Neutral Shadows

Saturday, 11 April 2015




Basically all I wear on my eyes is neutral shadows. I love the way they look and believe it or not theres a million different ways to wear them. My first favourite is a pretty obvious one. The Original Naked Palette is a cult favourite when it comes to neutral shadows. It has 12 gorgeous neutral shades that you can use a billion (roughly) different ways. I'm not going to bang on about these for too long because everyone's heard about it and if you're thinking about getting one I would definitely recommend getting it. My only gripe with this is the packaging gets filthy. A small price to pay for great shadows though. 

My other favourite neutral shadows are the Essence eye shadow Quattro in 'To Die For'. Its very inexpensive and it was one of the first makeup items I ever bought. It has gorgeous pigmentation and the shadows are so easily blendable. It's something I use almost every time I do my makeup and definitely a holy grail Item for me. A great one if you're just starting out in makeup and are trying to figure out what works for you. 

What are your must have neutral shadows?
