JUNE FAVOURITES!



Hiya everyone!!! I am so so sorry that I have been away for so long, I've just been so busy with assignments and learning to drive that blogging unfortunately had to take a back seat in my life! :( I'm back now though and have so many ideas for this blog in the future so excited!! :D Also I have recently made my own little YouTube channel if you would like to go over  and have a little look my username is Aliixleighxox and I hope to see you there! 

So moving on this is my monthly favourites for June and I have a lot of beauty products which I have been absolutely loving this months so grab a cup of tea and lets get into it!
The first thing is this Schwartzkopf Got 2b Weightless Dry Oil Mist with Argan Oil. For months now I have been obsessed with using Argan oil in my hair trying to make it looks shiny, smooth and sleek however the problem I have with the oil is that sometimes it weighs my hair down and can make it a bit sticky. This product however is amazing! It gives the exact same desired effect as the oil with my hair making it look gorgeously sleek and smooth but without the stickiness and weight of the oil. It is so easy to just throw in your handbag and when your hair is looking a bit dull or frizzy just spray a it of this in your hair and your good to go. Would definitely recommend this to anybody who want sleek and shiny hair without looking greasy or sticky.   

The next product is Garnier body Summer Body moisturising lotion in Deep Sun- Kissed Look. As we are getting into the summer I have been loving being tanned.I just think I always look so much healthier and awake when I have a tan and this particular product is perfect for me! I smells amazing so it doesn't have that "typical" fake tan smell, but it smells fruity and fresh. It doesn't streak or go patchy and it lasts a good few days as well if you prep your skin well before you apply it. 

On the theme of being tanned since I have come back from holiday last week in Majorca maintaining my tan has become very important to be and this product has made that really easy for me which is the Soap + Glory Butter yourself Moisture Lotion. Guys you need to go smell this because it is to die for!!! I cant get enough of it! I have been applying this morning and night every day all over my body for the past two weeks and I have really managed to keep my tan fresh and bright without going patchy and having dry patches on my skin. It isn't a thick consistency like the righteous butter from the same brand so it is perfect for maintaining a tan and also for preparing your skin for fake tanning.


My signature scent this month and for the past couple of months has been My NY DKNY. This smells heavenly! It's a really sweet and fresh scent but it isn't a heavy perfume at all it is very light but the scent lasts all day.If you haven't smelt it and I would definitely recommend going to a shop and smelling it because it is honestly gorgeous and it is quite affordable compared to other perfumes as well.

 I bought this Benefit Coralista Blusher a few weeks ago and Oh my god I am so in love!! It makes my cheeks look amazing and it is the perfect colour for summer to give your cheek bones a gorgeous coral glow. It has very quickly become my got to everyday blusher.
As everyone knows I am a huge fan of Maybeline mascaras but this Lash sensational is the best I have tried by far it's brilliant! It makes my lashes look so long and voluminous with getting clumpy at all and it doesn't transfer on my                                             cheeks or on my eyelids.
With it being summer and being on holiday I have been really loving having a dewy look and finish to my make-up and this Mac Fix+ spray has been essential in me achieving this. I do my make up normally as I do everyday and then spray a few squirts of this all over my face and it completely eradicates any powdery look and gives me a healthy and fresh glow to my skin without making me look oily. 


    I have been looking for a new make-up bag for ages now and I have had Primary ones for years now but I wanted to get a good quality one that was going to last and would protect my make-up more. When I saw this one in Next I completely fell in love! I love everything about it the size,the colours, the shape and also the writing which is just so cute! I used it recently when I went on holiday and it fit all my make-up in for everyday without any problems and kept it all safe and in one piece whilst it was inside my case onthe plane.  

These two lipsticks have been my go to lipstick everyday for the past few weeks and they are the Maybeline colour sensational in 168 Petal Pink and 418 Peach Poppy. I am obsessed with the colours they are bright, fun and perfect for summer and they go with almost anything I wear. I am so in love! The formula is so nourishing and balmy but the colour pay off is really good as well. I wouldn't say they are matte but they aren't too glossy either they are pretty much in-between the two but they last all day on my lips and I love them! I'm definitely going to have to see what other colours are in that range. The top picture below is Petal Pink and the bottom picture is Peach Poppy.

So I'm not sure if a lot of people know about this but I suffer from anxiety and a major trigger for me is going on a plane. When I went on holiday last week me and my boyfriend got split up and I had to sit on my own and calm myself down for 3 hours so as a treat to myself and a sort of reward for coping on my own I bought this Loreal Paris eye shadow palette in Rose on the plane. The colours are absolutely gorgeous and can make some amazing eye looks.There is a mixture of shimmery shades and matte shades and also a highlight colour for the brow one and for the inner corner of the eyes. 






My last favourite for June is these two books that I was obsessed with on holiday they are a series called Beautiful Disaster and Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire. If you love young romance, adventure and some plot twists then these are the books for you. It about two teenagers Abby and Travis becoming friends in college and slowly falling in love with each other without realising and trying to keep their friendship as well. I literally couldn't put these books down and I am so sad there isn't any more in the series! :(

Well that's all the products I have been loving this month, there was a lot I know haha! If you have any questions comment below or tweet me @Aliixleighxxx and I will be back with another blog post soon! Have a lovely day beauties! x
