Let's kick off August favourites with my new love, Aesop! I have heard numerous bloggers raving about the Aesop Parsley Seed Masque, but at £27 I was hesitant to buy a product from a brand that I hadn't ever used. First things first, the sales assistant at Liberty's couldn't have been more helpful and it did help that she threw in a few free testers! She recommended the masque for skin that is exposed to a harsh air-conned environment that needs deep cleansing/ a good-clear out a couple of times a week. A 15 min application leaves my skin feel squeaky clean, fresh and ready for bed (I normally do face masks in the evening) and major snaps for the scent and smooth application (none of this messy clay business!)
I have been gearing up for my fave season Autumn since the start of August and along with updating my new season wardrobe comes with breaking out the darker polish shades. Last year, greens and greys were my go-to's and I think my palette will pretty much stay the same! I picked up Power Clutch by Essie which is a great combo of the two and adds a pop of colour to my neutral colour dressing!
Chirstopher Bailey can do no wrong. Along with being one of my fave British designers, the beauty collection from Burberry is on another level. My first purchase came in aid of being on the hunt for the ultimate nude lipstick and the shade Anitque Rose was the only one that stood out against the thousands of swatches that had been slapped on my hand. The formula is very moisturising and finishes off my barely-there make up look perfectly. But what makes this product so special is the packaging - the classic Burberry print and magnetic case, enough said.
And my non-beauty fave this month has to be the Polar FT4! This watch does lack glam but being a little bit of a fitness freak it is perfect for when I am doing a group class and don't have the cardio monitor that is on machines - not that I believe what they record is true anyway!
