Ten points to you if you recognise the title from Disney's Pocahontas - my favourite ever Disney film growing up. So much so I dressed up as her for two Halloween's in a row, true story! Anyway I have seen a few Rainbow tags floating around (pun fully intended) and I thought it would be a nice step out from the norm in terms of presenting this months favourites and I am a complete sucker for colour coordinating things so this tag is like a dream come true!
Red - Revlon's Lip Butter in Candy Apple has become a favourite - review link but not wore on its own, I like to combine it with Khroma Beauty Au Natural Lip Kit - review link. When the two shades combine they produce a beautiful light but glossy coral that is both moisturising and long lasting. Win!
Yellow - My only skincare addition is Sukiface Eye Lift Cellular Renewal Cream which I will review in due course but for the moment I can say that this mousse like cream soothes, hydrates and de-puffs my undereye area in one quick step. I am a huge fan and can't wait to share all with you!
Pink - Myself and NARS Chelsea Girls Lip Lacquer have our moments, sometimes I adore the light pink yellow gloss others I loathe the sticky texture. However this month I have been going out at night more frequently than usual and nothing seems to stay put quite like this can. You can read my review here - link.
Green - If you buy one green nail polish in the coming weeks let it be Barry M's Greenberry - review link, it's bright, glossy and will never fail to gain you a compliment or two. It is beautiful and perfect for the summer and most importantly only costs £2.99!
Purple - As far as I'm concerned my favourite purple themed beauty product will always be Thierry Mugler's Alien perfume, sure I have countless other bottles of fragrance but nothing quite feels like home other than Alien. At the moment I have been enjoying this years summer edition - review link, if you enjoy Theirry Mugler but wish it was a little more fruity this is pretty much like your prayers have been answered!
Orange - The month of May when it comes to blush has been all about Illamasqua's Lover Blush - review link, this bright orange tinted coral works gloriously well on all skin tones but I like to buffer it on to my cheeks when I have a tan and pair it with a coral lip. I know summer is well on it's way when I dig out Illamasqua Lover!
Blue - First of all let me say that Maybelline's new Polka Dot Nail Polishes are a nightmare to remove, easily one of if not the polish that I have struggled with most in terms of removal yet I forgive them as the blue Polka Dot Polish - Shooting Stars is beyond beautiful! This deep blue polish can be worn on its own or layered over a similar toned polish (my preference) to give an instant nail art effect or to hide chips. You can read my review and see swatches here - link.
Random Fact -Sir Isaac Newton discovered the seven distinct colors of the visible spectrum of the Rainbow.
Great post and i love the background whatever it may be.x
ReplyDeleteThat's so not what I want to hear about the maybelline polish! I can't stand hard to remove polish! I have to say the whole reason I clicked to read your update was the title. I love that movie as well!

ReplyDeleteOoh yay I've been doubting so much to get the Candy Apple Revlon lip butter! We don't have them over here so it's kind of hard to decide whether I should buy it or not because I can't see the shades in real life.. I've noticed that a lot of them have a tiny bit of shimmer and I don't really like that, but sometimes it's hard to see on swatches.
