summer essentials

Hey guys it's Holly and welcome to todays post. Today i thought as its now summer it would only be right to do a summer themed post. So as a result today i have some of my summer essentials to share with you guys. I love to use these products around summer time as they work so well and they suit me as the weather starts heating up.

Impulse spray- £1 Poundland-

So the first essential i have to talk about is an impulse body fragrance. Impulse spray's are great because they just smell so good. I actually sometimes use this as a deodorant as well as all over me because its just that good. My favourite scent is Very Pink as it smells so feminine and gorgeous.

Vaseline moisturiser- £2.89- Superdrug

Another essential is the Vaseline spray&go body moisturiser. I love this because its moisturising and lightweight which is perfect for summer. It smells sooo good, of cocoa butter and i feel like that's a really nice summer scent. The fact that it's in a spray bottle makes applying it alot easier so you can "spray&go" which is exactly what is says on the can. It's non greasy which means drying time is instant and it really is a summer staple.

Malibu SPF Lip balms- £1.99- TK MAXX

Next up on my summer essentials list are these bad boys. These three (or in my case four) lip balms are extremely good. They include SPF 30 in them which is brill as no one wants burnt lips in summer. They are moisturising lip protection that doesn't cost alot which is always a bonus. They have three yummy flavours in this packet but i'm sure they do another set with more tropical flavours if you prefer that. In them is UVA and UVB sunprotection and they are very water resistant. To top it all of though these are perfect for all year round as they have lip protection from the sun, wind and cold and they just prevent chapped lips. My favourite flavour/ scent is probably the vanilla or strawberry as i'm not so keen on the lemon. Oh and also they are perfect handbag/ travel size as they are so diddy.

Soap and Glory body spray- £4- Boots-

A real good summer scented body spray is an essential for summer and this one from soap and glory is perfect. The sugar crush scent from soap and glory is nice but its not my favourite as its abit too overpowering however, in summer it works a treat. Two spritzes gives you a such a nice summer scent. The spray smells like lime and vanilla which adds a fresh, zesty smell to your summer you. It's not too badly priced either for a Soap & Glory product so i deffo recommend it. Not to mention its last's me for ages.

Soft&Gentle deodorant-£1- Poundland-

A good aerosole is whats needed in summer when your abit sweaty and abit smelly. Obviously people have their preferences of roll- ons or sprays but after a long stuffy day i feel its better to spray on your deodorant than rub it everywhere. But thats just me. This inexpensive one from poundland smells really basic which for a full on deodorant not spray is great and it cools you down as you spray it too. I got this in the compressed can so its perfect to pop in your bag and take on the go with you.

Rimmel BB cream- £6.99- Boots-

Now for the final essential. When applying makeup, i think that in a summer a lightweight BB cream is the way forward. This one here from Rimmel is amazing as its a 9-in-1! It states on the back that it: primes, moisturisers, minimises pores, conceals, covers, smoothes, mattifies, brightens and helps protects. So thats alot however i haven't put it to the test fully as i always wear a primer anyway. But for summer the thing that i love about this is not only the lightweight feel but the fact it contains SPF 25 which is super important for the summertime.

So thank you so much for reading todays post. I'm really excited to be blogging again and i hope you guys are too.
