So today started off a beautiful spring day the blossom was blowing on the trees and to top it off its Friday !! After a busy day in the office the heavens decided to open which only made more excited that in just 3 days I'm jetting off to South Africa :D Getting a visit from my best friend at lunch discussing what we we're going to pack between us only made me realise I have not really given much thought as to what beauty products I would be taking with me, so I thought I better get cracking!
Skin
To start of with it is so important to protect yourself from the sun as to me keeping healthy skin is a must!! I find that the Forever Living Sunscreen smells amazing and is not sticky or oily like others on the market. I use the Thicker cream on my skin and the spray on my face. I also can't go without my Forever Living Aloe Gelly as this soothes you skin after a day out in the sunshine. A top tip is to put the gelly in the fridge if you have one in your room and feels even better. I also use this to take my makeup off as my nose always goes pink so stops it getting dry.
Make Up
I don't wear a lot of make up on holiday and to be honest with you in the week unless I'm going out somewhere really nice I wear minimal make up. However there are a few bits that I can't live without special with a gorgeous holiday glow.
1. Forever Living Flawless by Sonya Precision Liquid Eyeliner I love my 50's flicks and I have used so many different variations from brushes to pens but this tip is so pointed that you can get your perfect flicks with just one attempt.
2. Mac Haute & Naughty Lash Mascara what woman can live without mascara? This one has two wipers which means you can have defined or lashes with a lot of va va room. I love lashes with a bit of volume so this is just perfect for me.
3. Mac Prep+Prime is my magic weapon this product is great for contouring hiding all those late nights on holiday but also brings out your eyes against your tanned face. Under the brow for a more defined finish and along the nose to cover any pinkness. A top tip is to look at your veins in your arm to pick the right colour for your skin tone. If you have blue veins when clenching your fist then you need the pink or if your veins are green then the yellow.
4.Forever Living Flawless by Sonya Delicious Lipstick there are so many to choose from and I have to admit I have gone a bit crazy on the colours. With a vanilla taste these lipsticks are infused with aloe so help condition the lips, so no dry cracks whilst being in the sunshine. For holiday Guava 407 is pink but not to barbie for when you first arrive and as the tan depends switch to Watermelon 406 for a more rich colour.
5. Forever Living Sun Lips finally it is important to protect your lips from the sun so this lip balm is great for cooling as this is also aloe infused its 80 minutes water resistant SPF 30 so helps prevent sunburn I never leave the hotel room without it.
Snap Chat has such cute features today which means I can still look reasonably cute with out makeup loving this flower power one!
