Another month has passed and it’s time for monthly favourites! June favourites was one of my very first posts and I can’t believe is already time for another one!
Keep reading to find more about what I’ve been enjoying this month.
Benefit Big Easy Multi-Balancing Complexion Perfector*
I’ve already talked about it here and here, but it’s really the perfect summer base. It looks incredibly natural and stands the heat like no other: I can be melting in the sun but this looks great all day long until I decide to take it off. It does a great job covering minor imperfections and it’s pretty buildable, all while working well with other face products like concealer and powder. It’s love!
MAC Dainty Mineralize Blush
This blush is something I tend to forget about as it gives its best when paired with other products that can benefit from its brightening properties. It gives the right luminosity for an everyday look and it’s the perfect companion for my Armani bronzer. It can of course be built up to a more intense look but I really like to use it with a light hand for a more subtle blush look.
Dior Addict Lip Glow
My failsafe stop for the days I don’t want to wear a nude but don’t feel anything else either. It can be worn as a soft wash of pink and benefit from its glossy finish and hydrating properties or it can be built up as a pretty bright pink. It’s the most comfortable lip product ever, it’s one of the few things that never leave my bag and it’s something I couldn’t live without.
FormulaX The System*
I talked about FormulaX here, and I still think is the best thing ever. When I use it my nails feel and look healthy and my nail polish lasts the longest ever no matter the formula. The top coat is also a fast drying one that makes it impossible to smudge after the standard 15-20 minutes I spend at my computer after applying nail polish. The cleanser is still a bit of a question point for me but if the whole system is working I assume it does something too.
Caudalie Beauty Elixir
I haven’t used this for months letting my last bottle sit unopened when I realized it was the only toner-like product in my stash at the moment. The very first spritz reminded me why I got so caught up into the hype and I’m already addicted to the smell and the refreshing feeling it gives all over again. I use it before my serum morning and night and it gives the most lovely glow to the skin.
Here they are, my favorite products of the month of July. Next month will be one for travel friendly products and maybe a few holiday discoveries, I hope! What have you been enjoying this month?
Un altro mese è passato ed è giunto il momento dei preferiti del mese! Il post sui preferiti di giugno è stato un dei primi che ho scritto e non ci posso credere che sia già il momento di pubblicarne un altro!
Continuate a leggere per scoprire di più sui prodotti che ho particolarmente amato questo mese.
Benefit Big Easy Multi-Balancing Complexion Perfector*
Ne ho già parlato qui e qui, ma è davvero il perfetto fondotinta estivo. L’effetto è incredibilmente naturale e resiste al caldo come nessun altro: posso sciogliermi sotto i sole ma questo rimane perfetto tutto il giorno finché non decido di toglierlo. Copre benissimo piccole imperfezioni ed è abbastanza stratificabile, tutto funzionando bene con altri prodotti come correttore e cipria. Lo adoro!
MAC Dainty Mineralize Blush
Tendo a dimenticarmi di questo blush perché da il meglio di se quando combinato con altri prodotti che possono beneficiare della sua capacità di illuminare l’incarnato. Dà la giusta luminosità per un trucco da tutti i giorni ed è il compagno perfetto del mio bronzer Armani. Può ovviamente essere reso più intenso applicandolo in più di uno strato ma mi piace molto usato con una mano più leggera per un effetto meno evidente.
Dior Addict Lip Glow
Il prodotto perfetto per i giorni in cui non ho voglia di indossare il solito nude ma non mi sento nemmeno di indossare un colore in particolare. Può essere indossato come un leggero strato leggermente rosato per beneficiare delle sue proprietà idratanti e del finish glossy o può essere riapplicato fino a farlo diventare un rosa piuttosto acceso. È il prodotto labbra più confortevole che ci sia, è uno dei pochi prodotti che non lasciano mai la mia borsa e non posso davvero farne a meno.
FormulaX The System*
Ho parlato di Formula X qui, e continuo a pensare che sia davvero eccezionale. Quando lo uso le mie unghie appaiono molto più sane e lo smalto dura davvero a lungo qualunque sia la formula. Il top coat è as asciugatura rapida e rende impossibile rovinare lo smalto dopo i miei standard 15-20 minuti al computer dopo l’applicazione. Il detergente è ancora un po’ un punto di domanda ma visto che il sistema sta funzionando suppongo che faccia abbia anche lui qualche effetto.
Caudalie Beauty Elixir
Non l’ho usato per mesi lasciando la mia ultima confezione giacere chiusa nell’armadio finché non ho realizzato che si trattava dell’unico prodotto con funzione di tonico in mio possesso al momento. Al primo spruzzo mi sono ricordata perché mi feci catturare dal rumore che lo circondò e non posso di nuovo fare a meno del profumo e della sensazione di freschezza. Lo uso prima del siero mattino e sera e dà davvero una luminosità fantastica alla pelle.
Eccoli qua, i miei prodotti preferiti del mese di luglio. Il prossimo mese sarà pieno di prodotti adatti al viaggio e ci potrebbero essere alcune scoperte fatte in vacanza, almeno spero! Quali sono stati i prodotti che avete amato di più questo mese?

Just found your blog on the Google+ communities! I was actually posting my monthly favorites there as well! I have yet to try any blushes from MAC, but they all seem lovely. Dainty looks like it would work all throughout the year too. Great favorites!

It really is, as this is so, so refreshing... The smell is a bit of a love/hate thing, but I just adore it! Thank you Sunny! :) xx
ReplyDeleteThank you :) The Dior Lip Glow lasts a long time too, so even though it's a bit of an investment is truly worth it ;) xx
ReplyDeleteDainty is so lovely, and the Mineralize Blushes from MAC are great!
ReplyDeleteI'll make sure to check out your blog, I try to do that with everyone that comments on my blog as I'm so happy to receive them ;)
I love MAC Dainty, I agree that it's best when paired with others, I love pairing it with Soap and Glory's bronzer and it gives a gorgeous glow to the skin! x

I love love mac dainty! I was always intrigued to try the benefit big.... And overall all your favourites are simply ahhMAZING. xx
ReplyDeleteGlad I'm not the only one who finds that true! I almost always pair blusher with bronzer, some of them are gorgeous on their one too and others, like this, really need bronzer to pop! ;) xx
ReplyDeleteThank you! :) The Big Easy is really the highlight of my summer so far... I adore it! ;) xx
ReplyDeleteI really love Benefit Big Easy but the colour is too pale for me at times so bit disappointing! Wish they had more shades.
