Yasie's August Favourites

As it is the end of August, I thought that I would share a few products and jewellery items that I have been loving this month. Enjoy x

From left to right, Benefit They're Real mascara, One Direction 'Our Moment' perfume, Maybelline Baby Lips Lip Balm, Amie Morning Dew Matte-Finnish Moisturiser, Nails Inc nail polish in Hampstead Heath, Nars Sheer Glow Foundation in Mont Blanc and Topshop Twist Band rings. 

This summer I wanted to try a new foundation that was light on the skin and gave a natural and not so matte finnish. I had been wanting to try Nars sheer glow foundation for a while and after Lara picked it up and I saw how great it looked on her skin, I knew I needed this foundation. The coverage is described to be sheer and build able which I agree on. The foundation is best for  normal to dry skin types and leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth. Nars sheer glow is definitely worth it in my opinion. 

I am hoarder for mascaras and when I saw that Elle's June issue was giving away a sample of Benefit's 'They're real' mascara, I knew that I had to get it. The mascara is great on it's own and gives my lashes great length and volume which I do not find other mascaras used only on their own do. The applicator separates my lashes well and does not clump them. 

This August I have been wearing my Topshop band twist rings non stop. They are great to pair with any outfit and can be worn stacked or on their own as all of the rings are in various sizes. The set of rings are reminiscent of the Balenciaga golden thick tube rings minus the solid gold bands. 

Nails Inc. is one of my favourite brand of nail polishes as they are good quality and have a wide range of shades. I love deep red nail polishes and I am always on the look out for them. I have been wearing Nails Inc.'s Hampstead Heath for the whole of this month. The shade is a deep red which gives a pop of colour to every outfit.

The Maybelline Baby Lips lip balms have recently arrived in the UK and as they are so well loved in the US, I knew that I needed one. During Lara's recent trip to America she returned with a baby lips lip balm for me in the shade Peach Kiss. I was so excited to receive the item and I have been wearing it non stop since.  I have been enjoying the tint that they give to the lips and how hydrating they are. 

I have been using the Amie morning dew matte finnish moisturiser everyday to hydrate my skin. The moisturiser is mineral oil free so it helps keep my T-zone more oil controlled. This product leaves my skin feeling soft and I would look further into Amie's skin care range for more products to use.

One Direction's fragrance 'Our Moment' has recently been released. Prior to the release, Lara and I received a sample and I have not been able to put it down since. The perfume is a feminine fragrance that has been described of being made up of splashes of fresh fruit and seasonal flowers infused with undertones of warm musk. I will most definitely be purchasing the full size perfume along with the lotions and will wear it non stop.
