Hi everyone, welcome back! Thank you so much for joining me. If you're new here or watching for the first time,
my name is Lauren, and welcome, I'm so excited to have you here. In today's video
I'm going to be sharing with you my July Monthly Favourites.
These are things that I have been using throughout the month of July or even longer than that,
that range from beauty, fashion and I even have a homeware piece that I'm going to be sharing with you.
Starting things off with some beauty products, the
first one that I have to show you has definitely been a
favourite of mine and I can totally vouch for the product because I've pretty much run out of it.
The bottle is almost empty and I'm about to go and repurchase this product. It is the L'Oreal Paris True Match Lumi
Glotion, and I picked this one up in the color 'Light Glow.'
I think that this is the most sold out product of the range just because the shade is so, so gorgeous.
So what this is, essentially, it is like an illuminating, kind of like a highlighter,
but it's a lotion that goes on your skin.
So, I actually apply this all over my face and that's what I've been doing on a daily
basis throughout the month of July.
It reminds me actually a lot of the Loving Tan Bronze Shimmer, but not as dark and more illuminating,
but it's the same kind of concept, but for your face.
So, it just gives you this really nice, kind of like underlying glow to your skin,
which if you're all about getting that kind of dewy, bronze goddess glowy look for summer,
then I definitely recommend this product, particularly in the 'light glow' shade. To show you guys what it looks like,
so, this is what it looks like when it comes out of the bottle. It's really glowy.
It looks quite like a rose gold metallic colour,
that's almost how it looks, like a creamy rose gold, and then I literally just blend it in and
then it creates this like really nice, gorgeous, kind of like rose gold,
kind of shimmer illumination on your face. Now after I apply the Glotion, I go in with the No.7.
Now this line is sold at Target and it's from the Boots company,
which is a drugstore brand in the UK. It's called Boots, I love it, and I so wish we had it in North America.
It's such a shame that we don't! So this is the Dual Action
Tinted Moisturizer. It is for all skin types and it also has SPF 15 in it.
Any product, lotion, moisturizer that has, or foundation even, that has an SPF in it,
particularly for summer, is awesome.
Especially because I am using the tinted moisturizer in place of my IT Cosmetics CC Cream. Now,
I absolutely love my IT Cosmetics CC Cream, I use it as a foundation.
However, I don't really want as much coverage for summer.
I really like the look and feel of a tinted moisturizer, and I wear it right on top of the Glotion.
So just to swatch it for you, I have it in the shade 'Medium.'
So, that's how it looks when it comes out of the bottle.
So, it basically looks like a foundation but it's a lot more creamy and definitely has a
moisturizer feel to it. It just blends right in over top of the Glotion, and then it gives you this really nice
kind of glowy, dewy, illuminated look. Now, I have been majorly struggling with my skin for the past few months.
I'm suffering from breakouts, and I don't really know what's bringing it on.
So, I had actually been reading about products that are supposed to prevent
breakouts, that really cleanse your skin and that's when I stumbled across this one and I went and picked it up from Target.
So, what this is, is essentially these are cleansing pads. It's a massive container.
I initially kind of wanted it more for travel; the containers a little bit too big, but I still bring it for travel.
It's these huge, very saturated cleansing pads.
What you do, is you literally just cleanse your face with them and they even have an exfoliating side.
Honestly, there is so much product on the cleansing pad, like I don't even need that much.
I probably only need like half the size of a pad, or two thirds of the size of the pad. They are seriously massive,
but they work very, very well and it's so nice to kind of have all of
your products in one, that really cleanses and gets all the dirt and everything off your face.
It really gives you a nice deep clean,
and I'm just really impressed with it. Another product that I just wanted to try out from Target; Target is really like a one-stop shop.
If you haven't been to Target, you need to go to Target. It's the brand Good Chemistry
and essentially what it is, is it's a body spray
with essential oils inside. I picked up the scent 'Blue Bell.' This honestly smells so amazing. It's refreshing,
it's a little bit fruity,
it's a little bit sweet, but not overpowering and I personally don't really like to wear a lot of perfume or a lot of fragrance.
I think I have a little bit of a sensitivity to it.
I definitely notice it when our passengers or even fellow co-workers come on board with cologne or perfume.
So this just gives you, kind of a really nice fresh feeling, and I spray it on usually before I go out.
It's not overpowering that it bothers you. So, this is a really nice product, it is a great scent for summer,
It's practical, I like the feeling of a body spray, and yeah, I'd really recommend this one.
I believe it was under $10.
Next I have a Wet Brush and if you haven't tried the Wet Brush then honestly, this product is a
game-changer. I have really fine
hair. My hair I find gets really tangled, particularly at the bottoms and around my neck,
and then it breaks off. I'm really putting in an effort to grow my hair at the moment.
What I like to do is, I take it into the shower with me
I put conditioner on, and I literally brush my hair in the shower and
then when I get out of the shower, after I towel dried my hair, I brush it again.
I've actually just
switched my hairbrush to this one altogether, just because the bristles are really soft, and I find that it's just a lot nicer and more
gentle on my hair. This one I picked up from TJ Maxx,
I have a smaller version like a travel size one.
I don't know where it is, but I have a travel size one that I picked up from Target.
That one goes everywhere with me. I use it on my layovers for work. It's great, I think I even
prefer it over the big one, just because I just find it like really soft and easy to work with. So,
definitely a favourite and definitely a product that I recommend checking out.
Mine is in this gorgeous marble print which is really fun, and they come in a ton of different patterns.
So I really recommend this one,
especially if you're looking for a nice gentle hairbrush for your hair.
The last beauty product that I have to share with you guys, is
this Sunless Face Tanner from the brand Coola. Now I was actually sent this product as a
sample to review and to try out, and to give my thoughts on the product, and it was sent to me by
Influenster. if you haven't heard of influenster, I definitely recommend that you check them out. I will link them below.
Essentially, they have sent me lots of different beauty products to try out.
So, I'm not required to talk about them at all on my channel,
I just want to talk about the product because I actually love it and I've been using it for several weeks now.
So essentially what this is,
it is a face tanner. Now, I normally use the brand Loving Tan,
but I'm way too scared to put that stuff on my face. The
Sunless Tan from Coola,
it comes out in a clear formula and you don't even need to use an applicator mint to apply it.
Basically what I do is,
I put a couple of pumps of it into my hand and then I just rub it all over my face
and work it in, and then I rinse off my hands with soap and water. I haven't had any staining of the
product onto my hands,
so no transfer at all, my hands have not turned a weird orange colour, and I just
really like the color that it gives my skin. The product does last for about three days.
The only thing is, I wish that it lasted a little bit longer because the product actually is quite expensive.
I did have a peek at the price online, and Coola products, they're really well known, they work really well,
they use a lot of organic ingredients and then they're also vegan and cruelty free which is a big selling point for people.
I also look for products that have good ingredients to put on your skin. So I really like that about Coola.
So overall, I really like this self tanner. It's not scary at all. It doesn't turn your face orange,
it just gives you this really kind of natural tan look and it doesn't over tan either.
I apply it before I go to bed and like I sleep in it for six to eight hours.
That's on a good night,
I normally sleep about 4 to 5 hours,
but I usually try and leave it on for about six to eight hours
before I remove it.
Now moving into a few more fashion based pieces that I've been obviously loving throughout the month of July.
So I actually talked about this robe in my
June version of 'What's new in my wardrobe' and I've been using it throughout the month of July, and this is honestly just such a
lifesaver in so many ways, and it's from Nordstrom. It's the brand Flora Nikrooz.
I think that's how you say it, not 100% sure.
It's in a size small to medium and I was just really drawn to this absolutely stunning
rose print. For those really, like hot mornings, hot days in general, especially when you pop out of the shower.
It's just been so hot, like we have air conditioning units in our house and I'm literally roasting to death.
I'm actually roasting to death in this video
as I talk about it, because I don't to open the windows because it's just been noisy outside,
but this has just been such a game changer for me.
It's perfect for throwing on especially when you pop out of the shower, when you're doing your makeup
and you're trying to cool off. I think this particular
colour is sold out, but there's tons of other gorgeous floral patterns and prints on the Nordstrom website,
I think from the same brand, if not similar brands, so I will link that below for you.
I definitely don't like to repeat myself and show you guys products that I've shown on my channel before, but when
something is good and you really like it, It's definitely worth sharing. So I talked about these
espadrilles, their the brand Treasure and Bond and they're from Nordstrom in my June 'What's new in my wardrobe video,'
and I absolutely love these and I can vouch even more for them than I think I could in that video.
They are a white leather. They also come in a tan and a maybe of black as well.
I love this like, kind of like stark white, it really makes your outfit pop.
It's really kind of clean and crisp and I've been able to pair them in so many different ways
with so many pieces in my wardrobe for summer. It's just a really nice leather material and they're super comfortable.
I actually wore them last night,
so we went over to our friend's place and we were there from like 7 until like 12:00 12:30am
In the morning, and I did not take these off. To be able to wear an espadrille that's this high of a wedge for
over five hours, I think is really impressive. I picked them up in a size 8,
I wear a size 8, I'd say they fit true to size, but I can't recommend them enough.
So this bag from Topshop made it into my favorites just because I find myself reaching for it so, so much.
It retailed for $70
Canadian dollars and I feel like that could be a little bit pricey for a really kind of trendy bag, and you're not too sure
how much you're gonna wear it. However, I have been wearing this bag
so much on my days off, like I reached for it time and time again.
I find it actually pairs well with so many outfits, and I have received so many compliments on this bag.
It's a really unique bag. I know we kind of see them all over Instagram and
Pinterest however, that being said, I haven't seen anybody walking on the street with anything close to this.
I haven't really seen anything except like the round circular bags.
I'll insert a photo here if I can find one, so you know what I'm talking about. I absolutely love this, It has this amazing
shoulder strap. I love it. It's in that kind of faux leather material.
It's black and contrasts really nicely with the bag. To take it a step further, the strap is removable.
They've also included a linen pouch
which I don't think a lot of the designer bags do, I don't think they do them at all actually.
I haven't seen them come with pouches like this. This is a linen style drawstring pouch, and I love it,
I use it, and it's removable.
So, I personally like the pouch. Everything's in there, and I just think that this is such a fantastic
designer dupe. It's super affordable if you're comparing it with the kind of luxury
designers that are doing these bags at a really higher-end price point.
The last thing that I want to talk about from my
July monthly favourites is this
adorable faux fur stool.
I found this one at HomeGoods and it has this kind of beautiful blush
faux fur seat, and then these wooden legs.
The price is actually going to shock you,
it definitely shocked me, it was $16.99.
$16.99 for this beautiful stool. I think it looks a lot more high-end
I mean if it was more of that kind of like Mongolian faux fur, it would definitely look a little bit more luxurious,
but for my home office,
like how cute and feminine and girly to have a cute little stool like this at that price point? You can't
DIY it for that price. It's really nicely made actually, and I just love the colour.
It's really soft and I just can't get enough of it. I just love the contrasting wooden legs,
I just think it makes it look so much more expensive. It's maybe something you'd see from like Anthropology
or Urban Outfitters. So, this was such a good find, like I was definitely expecting this to be closer to $40 or $50 dollars.
So, to get it for under $20, such a deal and definitely worth a mention.
So those are my July monthly favourites!
I really hope that you guys have enjoyed this video. If you liked it, please give me a thumbs up,
