August Favorites

August favorites.

Hey guys, since today is the last day of August, I thought why not post my August favorite beauty products. For so many years I've been reading and watching other beauty bloggers do their monthly favorites, so I finally decided to do my own! And am so excited to show you which products I have fell in love with through out thsis month. Lets get started...



The first thing that I have been using a lot in this month is the black eyeliner by 'Frontcover' Cosmetic, it is a mini black kohl pencil with a smudger. This eyeliner is not sold separately as it is from one of the winter collections by Frontcover called 'Top Drawer' that are sold in Boots stores and online during Christmas season. However this collection can be bought from Ebay if you guys are interested. The eyeliner it self works brilliant, it is highly pigmented and lasts for as long as 8 hours without getting smudged or rubbed off whatsoever. The colour comes out as soft black which I thought was good if one is hoping to achieve a smokey eye with the liner, even better it has a smudger at the end! I would say the texture of the eyeliner is a bit on the down side, as its not as creamy which can make one apply this eyeliner a several times before it shows. For this reason i would give the texture of the eyeliner 8/10.


The next product is also from the Frontcover 'Top Drawer' collection which is an icy blue colour known as 'Chalk'. This eyeliner has a very creamy texture compared to the black liner from the same collection, it comes on very smooth and gives an instant sparkle to an eye as it contains silver glitter. What can be more dazzling than wearing this under your eyes to look extra glamorous? This eyeliner can also be used for highlighting the brow bone as the colour is more of a white than a blue as well as using it in the inner corner of an eye and on the lower lash line. 


I am sure you must have heard that the Bare Minerals have introduced their new eye brightener which goes by the name of 'Stroke Of Light'...If you are a Bare Minerals fan. Okay, so let me inform you why I have chosen this product. First of all, for a very long time I was on a hunt for a primer so that I could apply it on my eyelid so that my eye shadow could stay on for long. So when I tried this eye brightener not only did it work as an excellent eye brighter it was also useful for using it as an eye primer. I am very impressed with this product. The second quality that I like about this eye brightener is that, it is very helpful for hiding the eye bags if I have had less sleep. Using the shade Luminous 3, it is of a creamy beige tint base which is perfect for  completely correct my under eye bags. This product applies evenly, and stays put on for as long as 10-15 hours without creating creases on the eye. For this reason this product is one of my favorites that I have used through out the month. 


The next product to hit my August favorite list was the bronzer from No7 which I have no idea what its called as it was from the bronzer collection sold through out Christmas season. August is definitely the month where shimmery bronzers and highlighters look so heavenly on the cheeks. I would say this bronzer has it all! Its beyond perfect! It has five different colours and each one of them giving their unique sparkle and shimmer to the cheeks. It consists of three different colour highlighters as well as two different colour bronzers, brilliant right? The product applies on pretty good however there are also two negatives points about this bronzer, one of them is that it can make you look to shimmery and the other one is that it doesnt stay on for long. Other then that, I would definitely recommend this product to all the sun goddesses!


And finally the last product which made it into my August favorites list would be...GIRLS WITH ATTITUDE-GLAMOUR TO GO EYELASHES!! I absolutely love these eyelashes, for them I have completely ditched my mascaras. They look very natural on my eyelashes adding a bit of glamour to them which makes me think am some kind of supermodel, flickering my lashes! The lashes can be easily applied and are re-usable, and the best thing about them is that they feel very light on the eyes, almost like your just wearing mascara. The design is very girly and glamorous which is why they must have called it 'glamour to go'. 



So this is it guys, now that I have showed you my favorites, I would love it if you can share the products you have chosen as your August favorites in the comment box below! :)
