Last but not least is this notebook retailing only at an affordable £2.50!

Recently I have been thinking about purchasing a notebook to write down all my blogging ideas to hopefully build up a schedule for possible weekly posts to make this more of an ongoing thing instead of posting once in a while. This notebook will therefore be used for this and anything else I need to jot down.

I find the colour/design of this collection super adorable as snippets of her personality are evident in some of them! This obviously not meaning she looks like a fluffy pen sometimes but the 'XOXO' on the pencil case reminds me of Gossip Girl and the fluffy pen makes me want to scream IT'S SO FLUFFY! By noticing the inspiration for these items, this makes the stationery fun and quirky!

These items are ridiculously affordable but at great quality, especially for a student like myself!

I am so pleased to have bought some of this collection before it sells out like last time!

Let me know in the comments below if you've bought any of the collection yet and what one is your favourite :)

Thanks for reading,

XOXO,

Summery Makeup Look

Face

For the face I use very little products as during the hot weather nothing is better than keeping as much of your face makeup free as you can.

Because of this I just apply the Rimmel Wake Me Up concealer in the shade Ivory to areas such as; under the eyes, Ontop of the nose, centre of the chin and in between the brows. 

* no foundation*

I then just brush the four pink shades as shown above from the Revolution Blush palette 'Golden Sugar' along my cheeks which adds a nice subtle highlight.

To give my cheeks a subtle pinky glow I swipe a few strokes of colour from the Rose Gold Sleek blusher.

Eyes

Eye shadow

2. I then apply 'Moonlight' from the Tanya Burr Galaxy Eye palette all over the lid.

I use two mascaras

And on the left is the Revlon Colorburst Lacquer Balm Stain in the shade 001 'Honey Douce'.

Both of these lip products are matte free as I wouldn't personally opt for a matte lip product in the hot weather as it makes my lips feel sticky. I prefer a moisturizing product that is easy to apply and doesn't feel too heavy.

These two lip options give you a choice as to whether you're feeling daring enough to add a pop of colour to your lips or if you would prefer to keep the look subtle all round with a softer lip shade.

Due to the possibility of the weather melting my makeup off my face I hold it in place with The Body Shop Vitamin E Hydrating Face Mist.

(It's also really cooling on the face especially when the weather is hot!)

The Finished Look!

Thankyou for reading this post on how to create a subtle summery makeup look which is bearable, wearable and possibly colour popping if you choose a bold lip!
