---------------------------------------------

Hello Class and Glitter readers! We are the blogging beauty buddies, Ainsley and Sophia. We have a blog as well (duh) and post content on a weekly basis. We really like posting on our specified days for a more structured blog. We have Makeup Monday, TAG Th----ursday and Fun Friday where we write a variety of makeup, fashion and lifestyle posts. We have known Parie (through the wonders if the Internet) for a couple months now and we were so excited for the chance to guest blog. Alright, let's get right into our Summer Trends post!

Sophia's Favourite Summer Trends:

1. Coloured Hair! This is something really fun that we have been seeing all the time. Using hair chalking techniques or dye (rinse out or permanent) this is something really fun that basically anyone could try!

I love the colours in her hair!

2. The other summer trend I have been loving is coloured eyeliner! I just think that it is so fun for summer and it just adds something interesting to your look, and we will be posting a tutorial on this soon!

I really love the way this looks on Cara Delevingne! 

Ainsley's Favourite Summer Trends:

3. One of my favourite summer trends has to be super cute hair accessories. I really think that they are a super fun way to add colour to your hair without any commitment. Hair bows are really cute with buns, with the half up half up do, and also a pretty way to keep your bangs out of your face! I also really love floral headbands, they are perfect for more of a bohemian vibe, definitely perfect for a music festival or just hanging out during the summer.

4. My other favourite trend for summer is anything floral printed! With so many different options, your sure to find your perfect floral printed piece!

Try out the floral print trend by wearing a cute dress like this one from Forever 21

We would like to take an oppertunity to thank the lovely Parie for letting us guest blog for her, it was really fun! Thanks for reading, and please check out our blog!  have a great day!

Real Techniques Multi-Task Brush ♥

well It is no surprise that I  have fallen head over heels for real techniques not only the ‘dupes’ which you can find more about here. But also the actual brushes, especially the multi task brush that comes in the travel collection. I love all the brushes that came in the collection but mainly the multi task brush which can be used for blush, powder and bronzer I prefer to use it for powder because it is nice and fluffy to use all over your face.

The pink brush makes it easier for me to identify which brush it is in my pot and I haven’t stopped using it since I have got it. The actual brush size is great and makes it easier to use as well as easy to hold it in your hand because you have a firm grip and a lot more control. A great thing about this brush is that you don’t pick up too much product, whatever it may be! It picks up just enough makeup for your application so you don’t overdo it.

I am slowly building up my brush collection and would never think that I would buy yet another thing that gets raved about so much but I did. You can find real techniques in boots and Superdrug, but you can buy the collections and single brushes for cheaper online on Amazon here. Bargain!

July Favourites ♥

Hello August! Another month, another monthly favourites post! Yes we are finished with July and going in to August. July was a very hot month, the sun was shining and the birds where tweeting, and the royal baby was born. As far as new products are concerned I have loved a lot of summery things, if that makes sense?

First up dry shampoo, a pound land buy and not a single regret. I was always hesitant of buying dry shampoo as I never got the idea and love behind it but now I don’t look back. This little bottle of wisdom is great for those days when it is hot but you don’t want to put yourself through the heartache of washing your hair and drying it ECT. A spray of this and you are good as gold. The shampoo also smells amazing, and leaves your hair feeling non greasy and looking fresh.

I hate slapping on heavy amounts of make up when the sun is out, because it just melts off my face like ice cream. So, the best thing to use is a BB Cream and I love this one from MUA the coverage is medium and with concealer on top can cover you up. It lasts all day on my skin and does the job of a bb cream, it is also very purse friendly at only £4 a bottle and seems to match my skin perfect unlike many MUA products which don’t.

Sticking with that sweaty theme, I have used up so much deodorant this month that I am in shock of how many bottles I have thrown away. This one by Nivea though has to be my favourite and I constantly repurchase it no matter what the weather or the price. It does a great job at keeping me going for hours and doesn't leave any of them disgusting white marks under my arms.

Also from Nivea, I have used this lip balm that helps with protecting your lips from the sunshine. I am always the one that puts spf all over my face and leaves my lips bare so they crack and go horrid or smear the spf over which makes it look like I am a cricket player. This however, is my solution to preventing both those tragedies. It leaves a clear finish to your lips and protects against any harmful rays from the sun, it is also a great base for under any lip products that you might want to put on over.

And last but not least, a make up sponge. Which is my holy grail make up product, forget spending tons on the beauty blender when you can just use this simple sponge to get the same effect and finish. I find that it works best when it is damp as the foundation is much easier to blend and move around. I bought a big bag of the sponges from the pound shop, but they are also available to buy from super drug and boots.

I also have a summer ‘tune’ if that makes sense! I have been listening non-stop to the new Miley Cyrus song ‘We Can’t Stop’ it has had mixed reviews but I just love it. 

Latest In Beauty - Ultimate Summer Nails Box ♥

Latest In Beauty - Ultimate Summer Nails Box

A few months back now Latest In Beauty teamed up with You Magazine to come up with an amazing beauty box that had all things nails in it! They are £14.95 and available to buy online, I somehow missed the first LIB email about the box so I signed up for the reservation list and a few days later the box appeared through my door! This box is only priced at £15 and the stuff inside adds up to £50! that is amazing! and this box will be your best friend this summer! This is also my very first beauty box and I am in love!

The first thing I was really excited about is the 'Bourjois Magic Nail Polish Remover 'and I have been wanting to purchase this for so long, but I it is sold out everywhere! This is perfect if you are like me and get bored of your nail colours and if you're on the go you just dip, twist and it is clean! 

And the next product, is a butter london polish that get raved about so much, I couldn't wait to get my little hand on one! And finally I have this one in 'yummy mummy' this name makes me giggle, and the colour is beyond amazing! I love nude colours for the summer and this is such a lovely colour and with two coats looks amazing! 

Next up is this 'Rituals Nail Polish Corrector Pen' and I have very mixed thoughts about this, only because I used to have one of these and it failed on me, hopefully this will change my thoughts and do it's job. This is great though for when you are in a rush and need a quick fix, plus I always smudge and ruin my nails so this will hopefully be my god send. 

I love using and collecting nail files and this one from 'The Vintage Cosmetics Company' is such a lovely pattern and I can add it to my growing set of nail files. This is currently in my handbag because of how pretty it is!

These 'Essie Sleek Stickers in So Haute' look so exciting! I love nail wraps and am currently loving nails with patterns on, and these ones from essie look easy to apply even though wraps can be very fiddly! I love essie and hopefully will love these as well! 

Everyone needs a hand cream when they have finished their nails! and this 'L'Occitane Shea Butter Hand Cream' smells amazing! I love that this is full size as I have used up the mini one I got a the clothes show, it smells amazing and leaves your hand smooth and smelly fresh!

How cute are these mini nail polishes! They are so adorable and I love nails inc and these two polishes are amazing! On the left is I'Notting Hil Gate' which is a great vibrant pink colour for the summer time and looks so pretty with the butter london polish. And on the right is the 'Kensington Caviar Top Coat' which I have been wanting to try forever and ever due to meaning to give you that glossy gel like finish. 

This box is amazing, and for only £15! But I am afraid that the box has gone again, I would still sign up to Latest In Beauty because they have some other amazing boxes!
