And it's back to reality... I got back from Spain on Saturday after a week of sun and playing in the pool and it's safe to say...England is freakin' hot. I am as boiling here as I was there, except here it's worse because I don't have air-con or a pool to cool off in!
I kept my make up very minimal on holiday - most days I wore absolutely nothing except an SPF during the day. We only went out a couple of nights, and my look was very basic, but one that I thought enhanced the sun tan freckles that I had going on...

To start, I applied Soap and Glory Glow Job. I absolutely love this, and have had this around a year now, so I think it needs to go soon, but it's so nice! It's a chocolate orange scented moisturiser with bronze beads inside, so when you rub it in, it blends out into a nice sun kissed glow. The only downside, it comes across mighty shiny on my already oily skin, so I covered with a quick slick of Benefit's Porefessional. It smoothed over my skin, and also matted down the Glow Job.
I contoured and coloured with the Bourjois Bronzing Powder & Highlighting Duo and the cream blush in Pink Sunwear. These work really nicely together, and added natural definition and colour to my cheeks. I used The Body Shop Shimmer Waves for my eyes, taking the individual shades from the waves to add some colour to my eyelids, followed by a smokey slick of the Carbon Eye Definer, and some golden highlights along my lower lash line and top inner corner with the Liner Feutre. I finished my eyes with the Maxfactor False Lash mascara, and topped the entire look off with a lipgloss - I'm not normally a fan of lipgloss, but I wanted something subtle, yet enhancing for my lips!
And there we have it! My evening make up for a Summer's night in Spain!
