How on earth is it July already?!?! I'm sitting at my desk wondering where half of the year has vanished, before you know it we will all be Christmas bloody shopping! Any who like I mentioned in one of my previous posts I have recently brought lots of new makeup and have been trying to add some new bits into my makeup bag. The biggest look for me is the dewy bronzed look, you cant beat it! Its natural and so beautiful, I try to go for this look on a day to day basis. I have picked out my favourite products that I use day to day that give me that dewy and radiant look.
My all time fave foundation would have to be the Giorgio Armani luminous silk foundation, I am yet to find a foundation that beats this. I am looking to try the Chantecaille Future skin foundation but ill grab that next month cause I am a broke ass bitch atm haha. Luminous silk is the perfect foundation for me id say its light to medium coverage and its buildable and so subtle. Its like applying a layer of silk onto your skin, its fabulous sweetie darling!!! The foundation lasts up to 4/6 months for me depending how much I use, a little goes a long way and I always get compliments on my skin when I wear this. I wear shade 6.25 which is a beautiful soft tan shade with yellow under tones. Priced at £37 Shop here

A new fave of mine that has wormed its way into my beauty bag is Mac Face & Body foundation in shade C3,I heard some good things about its light weight, dewy formula so I had to get my makeup obsessed hands on it! Love love love it, its lovely and light and has a glowy finish. If you are looking for something that has a really light coverage and acts like a second skin then this is a really great foundation for that. If you are looking for something heavier I would avoid, even though its buildable I think this would require a lot of layers! I went for a C3 as I wanted a warm yellow undertone. You can get 120ml that's priced at £29 which is amazing as it lasts so long! Shop here
I'm have an obsessive habit of mixing Mac strobe cream into my foundation every single day, I literally cannot stop! It adds a subtle glow to any foundation and makes your foundation glide on beautifully. I love this stuff it makes my skin radiant and gives me that dewy finish which I adore. Every girl needs this cream it changes lives, 100% recommend this! Priced at £24.50 Shop here
I am murder around a highlighter or illuminator, you cant beat them. Luminously glowing skin, who would say no to that! My all time fave is Nars Orgasm Illuminator but I am always up for trying new products and one that got my attention is the Good to Glow - Soho Glow by Rimmel. I saw this on Alessandra Steinherrs snapchat and was eager to try it as her skin is literally a dream and always looks like its glowing. It comes in three shades Soho Glow - a bronzed shimmer, Piccadilly Glow a coral glow and Notting hill Glow and pearl glow. I opted for the Soho as I loved that sun kissed glow it gave off. I'm deffo more of a liquid highlighter kinda gal, they look so natural and airbrushed! I am always open to try new ones so if anyone has any recommendation please do comment below!Shop here
Hoola bronzer was my go-to when I was in school It was the bomb, I'm sure 80% of my friends had it. It was actually the first bit of 'expensive' make up I purchased (Well my mum got it for me haha thanks ma!) For some reason I stopped using it and completely forgot about it. About a month ago I was after a new bronzer and I crossed the Benefit counter and I literally had an epiphany! WHY did I ever stop using it, the colour is literally a soft golden brown that looks divine. Shop here
Hope you enjoyed! Love GC Xx
