I hope you all enjoyed the extra hour in bed this morning or afternoon before I weather guard the house let me share I few products I have been enjoying for the past week.
Early morning showers are the worst aren't they? Or maybe it is just I don't deal well with mornings at all.
Either way I have found Imperial Leather's Foamburst Body Wash in Sweet Vanilla and Cherry Blossom to be the perfect way to kick start the day. First of all the scent is beautifully light and super feminine without being sickly sweet nor overpowering and the foam element is not only quick and easy to use but feels amazing on the skin. If you head over to www.foamburstgenies.com Imperial Leather are giving away daily prizes for 8 weeks, as well as 7 big prizes themed around their Foam Burst Genies! You can find the Imperial Leather Foamburst Body Washes* via Superdrug for £3.09 - link.
If I'm truthful I will hold my hands up and say that I don't really rely on cleansing waters but with the recent dreary weather as soon as I get home I just want to quickly remove the bulk of my make-up and clamber into my PJ's. For that I have found Eau Thermale Avene Cleanance Water* to be a complete time saver - I quickly swipe it all over my face, pull on my pj's and enjoy my evening meal. It is gently yet effective has not at all irritated my blemish prone and oily skin and is great pre-cleanser to boot. Find it at Escentual starting at just £2.25 - link.
Unsurprisingly I have once again been sporting nude lips and my current go to choices are NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in Stockholm, find it here - link and L'Oreal's Color Riche Lipstick in Julianne's Nude* ,find it here - link. Both are pink based nudes that look really natural and work rather well with my newly blonde locks.
On my face it has been all about Bourjois Happy light Luminous Serum Primer* for a light glow, I find it to work really well with NARS Sheer Glow Foundation as well as the new Bourjois Happy Light Foundation. I also find it great to prevent certain foundations such as Estee Lauder's Double Wear Foundation from applying too heavy and cake like. It doesn't really control excess sebum but it does give a soft, diffused glow that helps fake the airbrushed look. Find it via Boots - link.
As it truly feels like Autumn not only have I been splashing on Bath and Body Works Pumpkin Cupcake Hand Gel (yum) but I have been slicking on warm autumnal make-up tones. I found that almost daily a quick slick of Maybelline's Color Tattoo in Metallic Pomegranate find it here - link and surprisingly MAC Bad Girl Gone Good Blush which is a beautiful warm tone that is quite similar to MAC Gingerly which you can find here - link.
Tell me what you have been enjoying, I need some inspiration.

Great post! I have been enjoying the Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation...it's one of the most light weight foundation that I've ever tried comparable to Chanel's Vitalumiere Aqua...am quite curious with the Happy Light foundation now...
