Beauty
Garnier Body Repair Repairing body milk | I use this body milk as an everyday moisturiser for my body and darn, it works miracles ! This one leaves my skin feeling so super soft and smells just hmmmm !
Palmolive Naturals Ultra Hydrating shower milk with olives and hydrating milk | I told you guys all about this one in my previous collective haul, so I'm not going to repeat myself BUT oh boy, I'm in love with this scent all over again !
Lush Grease Lightning (or Spotlight for the French version) anti acne treatment | I used this one every single night for the past few weeks because I was breaking out really badly and it worked perfectly. My skin has cleared up beautifully and isn't left looking really dry and dehydrated. A little pump of this one goes a long way and for a tea tree treatment this one smells really good. (I am currently testing out a tea tree face wash that smells so bad, ugh !)
Rimmel Kate Moss Lipstick in 111 (Kiss of Life) and 107 | I caved and bought a second one of these lipsticks ! I'm in love with the finish and smell of these ones. To me they kind of smell like watermelon if that makes any sense? They can be a bit drying because of the matt finish, so maybe it would be a good idea to wear some lip butter underneath ;) Swatches are down below !
Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in Light (I think, because the packaging doesn't say what shade this is) | This concealer is perfect if you want to acquire a natural make up look ! It doesn't give you a lot of coverage, but just enough to conceal normal size blemishes. I am crazy for neutral/natural make up looks, but I do need a lot of coverage because of active break outs and acne scars. So I use this one on those patches where I would typically get some redness or wherever I have some minor scars and then I use a more heavy concealer on active break outs, areas where some veins are noticeable and bigger scars.
Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream in Light | This has been my go to 'foundation' these last few weeks. It is a great moisturiser and gives you just the right amount of coverage for a natural looking face of make up. LOVE !
Fashion
Sweaters | Oh yes, it's me and my sweaters again ! Towards the end of august the mornings and evenings get more crisp here in Belgium and that's why I was finally able to wear my sweaters again, yay for fall !
My collared shirt from New Look | It just looks so cute and preppy and I pair it way too often with my nerd glasses ... Help !
My Little Marcel Phone Case | How cute is the font of this paired with the nautical print? I just can't ! (A lot of my friends will kill me for this, but just one more time to annoy them a little bit more hehe The case always reminds me of this.)
Lifestyle
Food - Non sweetened granola with hazelnuts and dark chocolate | I was such a cereal kind of girl, but last year when I was trying to eat healthier I trained myself to eat granola. The past year I only ate sweetened granola, but now that I am training myself to eat less sweet I switched to the non sweetened ones and I don't even mind actually. I really like how natural this tastes with a bit of almond milk, perfect breakfast. Seriously, I could eat this all day everyday ...
Music - Daniela Andrade | A lot of YouTubers use Daniela's music in a lot of videos and I had been wondering for quite some time who this girl was whose music everyone was using. This month I discovered it and fell in love ! I bought her album and have it on replay all the time. It is just the perfect soothing music to either wake up or wind down. My favourite original song by Daniela is Any Other Way :)
TV Series - Pretty Little Liars | If you are with me on this one, you will definitely have seen the summer finale of PLL and will be totally freaking out over it. I genuinely have been addicted to this series for the past couple of years and honestly I am dying to finally know for sure who A is !
Book - Lady Of the Rivers | I have been reading this one this month because after watching The White Queen TV series, I really wanted to read one of Philippa Gregory's novels. So I opted for the 'prequel' to The White Queen, the story of Jacquetta Lady of The Rivers. I haven't finished it yet, so I'll review it when I actually finish it ;)
YouTube - Zoe Sugg a.k.a. Zoella | She is such a sweet girl, she has an awesome sense of fashion, that British accent, the fact that she kind of made me look at myself and realise that I might be having anxiety causing my way too often panic attacks, ... She's amazing ! I love how spontaneous she appears to be in her videos and think she does an amazing job at what she's doing :) Make sure you check my post about Zoe's fashion and her YouTube channel !
Random Technology - My iPhone 5 | I am in love with my phone ! For years I had been wanting to buy a beautiful white iPhone and this summer I have worked my bum of to finally be able to buy one. I am super proud that I earned it all by myself and love this phone to pieces. (My dad already thinks it is glued to my hand ...)
Those were my favourites for the month of August. I hope you all had a lovely last month of summer :)
