I've probably mentioned it time and time again but dark circles and uneven texture under the eyes is a real issue for me. I've read about this eye serum by Estee Lauder and it sounds like it tackles my exact problem area. Only slight dilemma is that it's rather expensive. It's also an anti-aging product and being only 22 I'm not entirely sure it's a product I should to be using just yet. However the hydrating formula is said to inhibit signs of fatigue and pollution to leave the area looking vibrant and brighter, so if it really does do what it says on the tin then this sounds like it could be very worthy of its hefty price tag, whatever age you are.
Topshop Double Scallop Trim Swimsuit | £36
I spotted this when I was in Topshop recently and I was instantly drawn to it. I'm not normally one to wear a swimsuit- I'm definitely more of a bikini girl, but I just love everything about this. The monotone colours and the scallop trim reminds me of the 60's and it just looks really classic. I like to tan my stomach when I'm abroad but I can imagine wearing this to a hot tub party over the summer. Not that I have any hot tub parties planned...
Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer | £22
I love trying out different concealers to find the best one to do the job. Whilst I have numerous concealers already stashed in my make-up bag there's always room for one more. This time I'm turning my head towards Nars Creamy Concealer; a product worshipped by many. I've recently been finding that creamy concealers work best to achieve the smoothest finish to the skin and reduce the chance of creasing under the eyes, so this could turn out to a favourite in my collection.
The Body Shop Honey Bronze Bronzing Powder | £13
Bronzer add a lovely warmth to the face so has become a staple product in my make-up bag. I favour matte bronzers as they give the most natural sunkissed look, and this particular The Body Shop bronzers sells itself with it's promise of a beautifully even matte finish. It comes in a variety of 5 different shades so there's a good chance that they will have a shade to suit most skin tones.
Sam and Billie for Carlton London Kyla Snake Effect Court Shoe | £34.99
The Towie sisters have recently brought out a new shoe collection so I couldn't help but take a look and I have fallen in love with this particular pair. The metallic snake skin effect is a little different from just a standard block colour and will really make a statement with any look. They also look a nice height too. Not too high that they're uncomfortable but high enough to elongate the legs.
Mr Blanc Teeth Whitening | fr£19.99
I would absolutely love to have my teeth professionally whitened but it's so expensive. Hopefully I will get them done eventually in the next few years but until then I've got to use other alternatives and Mr Blanc teeth whitening strips are next on my list to try. I've been considering Crest Whitening Strips for a while, however they're actually banned in the UK for their high level of hydrogen peroxide which consequently causes long-term damage to the tooth enamel. So despite their rave reviews, this is really off-putting-not mention they're not the easiest to get hold of. Mr Blanc is peroxide-free with enamel-friendly ingredients so seems to be the safest option. I'll be putting this to the test!
Do you have a product that you swear by for teeth whitening? Are there any fashion items on your wishlist this month?

I have the night Repair Eye serum and it really is fab. For day i use my Origins one. Highly recommend the Nars Radiant Creamy concealer too although I use it for blemishes more than under the eye - still it's fab though. xx

I'm glad it's as good as it says then. It sounds amazing! The Nars concealer seems to be a favourite for so many.
DeleteLove that costume, I normally wear bikinis but I'd love to try this on. Fab blog xx

I prefer bikinis on holiday so I can't think where I'd wear this but it's just so cute! Thank you!
DeleteHow cute is that costume?! I wouldn't have anywhere to wear it, but I still need it!

I know! I almost think they need to make a bikini version but I don't think it would be the same!
Deletelovely wishlist, that swimsuit is gorgeous! i'm more of a bikini girl too but that one's definitely caught my eye x
ReplyDeletenatasha // eyebrows, inc.
Me too- I loved it as soon as I saw it!
DeleteThe Honey Bronzer is on my wishlist too, it looks so brilliant! xo
ReplyDeleteI know! I think even just the name makes it sound like a lovely product.
DeleteHow did I not know that Estée Lauder did an Advanced Night Repair for the eyes! Definitely in need of these right now even if it would cost me an arm and a leg...love the swimsuit too, I love the retro vibes! x
ReplyDeleteAlways, Alice
It sounds so brilliant doesn't it! Wish it wasn't quite so expensive though!
DeleteEverything about it looks and sounds gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI saw this swimsuit in topshop yesterday and I really wanted it! x
ReplyDeleteHannah | Heyitshannaah
It's such a gorgeous swimsuit isn't it!
DeleteI would love to try out Nars concelear too. Maybelline Fit me is one of my favorite concelears and everyone says that it is dupe for this one from Nars.
ReplyDeletesparklygoddess.blogspot.com
I've heard a few people mention Maybelline Fit Me as being a good concealer. I didn't realise it was a good dupe for Nars though. I'll have to try it out! Thanks!
DeleteThe swimsuit is stunning! x
ReplyDeleteEmma | Emmys Beauty Cave
I know! I love it!
DeleteI love the honey bronzer! And I'm sure the advanced night repair for eyes will work perfectly, I've been using anti-aging products from Estée Lauder even though I'm only 22, they are really good for young skin too if you ask me. Not mainly due to the anti-aging effects but more because of the other lovely ingredients.
ReplyDeleteSwissBeautyTalk
Oh you've made me want to try the advanced night repair even more!
DeleteStunning wishlist. I'm really keen to try The Body Shop's Honey Bronzer it looks lovely and so shimmery! So glad I found your blog, I'm a new follower. Keep up the amazing posts <3

It is isn't it! Thank you :)
DeleteI cannot rave about the Nars concealer enough and haven't looked back since picking it up last year :) I literally got the Honey Bronzer today and hope it lives up to the hype xx
ReplyDeleteJasmine Talks Beauty
I think I definitely need to pay Nars a trip asap! Oo I'd love to know how you get on with it!
DeleteThe NARS concealer has been on my wishlist for sooo long! xx
ReplyDeletealicekatex ♥
It sounds so good doesn't it? Pretty much every review I've read seems to live up to the hype!
DeleteI use the nars creamy concealer under my eyes everyday - saying that I don't find it as amazing as the hype suggests! I don't find it that easy to blend and I find it a bit drying personally. It's good enough to use up as it does brighten my under eye area but I'll try something else once it runs out!
ReplyDeleteThe swimsuit is a gorgeous style :) & definitely interested in the eye cream, I need to find a good one x
Zandra // AZTEC DOLL
That's such a shame that you haven't enjoyed it as much as everyone else seems to have done. I guess it just doesn't suit everyone's skin type but there's so many other brilliant concealers too so hopefully you'll find one that really works for you!
DeleteNARS concealer looks lovely! I havent tried it because it seems a bit too expensive for something I use everyday haha!
ReplyDeleteEmma Louise from theemmalouise.blogspot.co.uk
I know what you mean! I always use my more expensive products so sparingly!
DeleteThe nars creamy concealer and body shop bronzer are both at the top of my wishlist too! Just found your blog through Annabel at Mascara & Maltesers and love it!

DeleteAh what a beautiful swimming costume! Just need a hot tub now. I really want to try TBS honey bronzer, I have Benefit's Hoola but it's a bit dark for me.
ReplyDeleteIndia | www.touchscreensandbeautyqueens.com
A hot tub would be lovely wouldn't it, and the perfect excuse to wear the swimsuit! Oh that's a shame- at least with the Honey Bronzer it comes in a range of shades so you should find the correct colour to suit you.
DeleteThat swimming costume is so cute!! Definitely going to hunt it down before I go away! <3 xo
