5 Things to Buy in August

Happy weekend! Since the sun is shining and it's the start of a beautiful weekend, I'm assuming you're all after a list of products to spend your hard earned money on...

First things first, everyone loves a new lip product right? I'm all about glossy lips for this warm weather, and my number one pick right now is the Nyx Butter Gloss in Peaches and Cream. Gorgeously smooth and creamy on the lips, in a super pretty peachy nude shade. A handbag staple this one, for sure. 

Easy peasy eye makeup handled in one stick, don't waste the last month of summer faffing with eyeshadow, instead pick up the Barbara Daly Shadow Stick in Shimmering Sands and spend under five seconds making each eye look awesome. Sweep it all over the lid, blend with a finger and you're done.

Now you'll need a pretty peach cheek to go with that pretty peach lip, I'd recommend splurging on the Benefit Boxed Blush in Coralista a gorgeous shimmering peach. It's incredibly long lasting and it gives a really pretty glow to the cheeks.

I'm currently rocking the Rimmel Salon Pro Polish in Hip Hop on my fingers and toes, that's commitment to a nail polish. The perfect summer jam, a slightly orangey red, it's just perfect. If you don't have it, you need it.

And lastly, if you are looking for the perfect warm weather, lightweight but buildable base, look no further than the Diorskin Nude BB Creme. Gives good coverage but doesn't feel at all heavy on the skin, it's got SPF in it, and it's long lasting. Full marks.

What will you be splurging on this month?
