Lou's Guide To : Spring Essentials

by - May 04, 2016

Hey everyone, and welcome to my spring essentials. I did one of these in autumn and winter last year, so I thought you guys would like to see my spring essentials as well :) If you like post share it using the links at the bottom of the post. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this post, and I will see you again very very soon. xxxx

My first essential is a bright lipstick. I have quite a few bright coloured lipsticks so I am going to share a few of my favourites with you. My top 3 are: Kiko Deco Delight in 02 (no longer sold), Barry M Matte Me Up Crayon in 2 and Kiko Free Spirit Lip and Cheek in 105 (Limited edition - only limited time left to buy). I am a huge fan of pink toned lipsticks in spring and I also quite like a coral but I don't really have a coral lipstick, but the Tanya Burr I Found Nemo lipgloss is a really nice colour coral.

Another make-up item which is an essential in the spring is light bronze/gold eye shadows. In spring and summer I prefer to wear lighter shade eye shadows as I feel it looks really nice with the bright lipsticks. Some of my favourites so far this spring are: Smashbox Photo Op Eye Trio in Screen shot - I have been loving nectar and cinnamon toast and the first 3 shades in the L'Oreal La Palette Nude. Also, let me know if you want a spring tutorial using some of the products I have mentioned in this post :).

A bath/shower item I love in spring is body scrub. My all time favourite scrub is the Soap and Glory Scrub of your Life. It is a really exfoliating scrub, but doesn't feel too harsh on my skin, which is quite sensitive. It is in the original soap and glory scent I think, but I don't have any left so I don't really know. I do also love other soap and glory scrubs like Sugar Crush and Smoothie Star which are slightly less exfoliating but still do the job.

A more fashion related item is dungarees. Dungarees have only just become a favourite of mine, after I recently picked up a pair from New Look. I feel like they are just a bit of a change from wearing just shorts all the time, as the weather gets warmer. As soon as it hits about 20 degrees I am already in shorts and tees hehe

A final essential of mine is, a light fruity scent. I never really had a "go to" scent until recently when I started using Katy Perry's Royal Revolution nearly everyday! It is fruity scented but also has undertones of vanilla which pretty much makes it my perfect spring/summer scent!

I'm sorry this post was 2 days late but I have been super busy. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this post, and let me know in the comments - what is your number 1 spring essential?

Love Lou xxx
