English
weather is extremely unpredictable, and even though this year summer is very
hot and sunny, most years the heat takes a long time to get here, or never
really arrives. Sometimes we need a breath of fresh, summery air even when it’s
raining outside and you’re wearing a heavy Zara jumper(always been my absolute
favourites). I’ve found that one of the only ways to feel like summer is
actually here, is perfume. Now, I don’t know about you, but finding the perfect
summer perfume is quite a task for me. I wanted a fresh, flowery scent, that
somehow makes me feel happy and radiant.
I finally
found IT when I smelt Daisy Dream by Marc Jacobs the first time. Everyone
talked about it last year, and it was the latest ‘everyone needs to try it’
product, but I wasn’t really one to fuss about perfumes back then. Now it’s my
absolute favourite, and it just completes a summer day with it’s light and very
flowery scent. It’s one of those perfumes that just makes you feel pretty even
on a ‘ugh day’, and I couldn’t be happier about it.
But, the
secret to feeling summery is not only perfume, but also lipsticks. Lipstick is
the perfect way to brighten up your face on a very dull day, and I feel like
the Rouge Couture collection by Yves Saint Laurent is exactly what you’ve been
looking for.
The two
shades that I picked out look like ‘summer at it’s best’ for me, and I love
adding a splash of colour to my makeup look in this period of the year.
PINK
RHAPSODY is a vibrant pink, very fresh and bright, that never fails to impress.
CORAIL POETIQUE on the other hand, is a light coral colour, that I absolutely
adore. It’s simple and sophisticated and just has a ‘I’m pretty now’ feel to
it. All the lipsticks in the collection are a mix between a matte finish and a
dewy finish, leaving your lips exactly like they are normally, so as an effect,
making you feel like you have nothing on your lips.
Summer is
my favourite period of the year, and I love anything summery really, so these
three products are perfect for me and any other summer lovers out there.
What are
your favourite summer products?
Love, Sara
