This September I'm jetting off to Portugal for 10 days to get away from the rain in Scotland! It just so happens that I will be celebrating my 22nd birthday over there too!
I was struggling a bit for things to feature on this blog, but after gathering loads of stuff for my trip I realised I should show you guys some perfect holiday essentials!
The Summer Scent
I love celebrity fragrances, some are a bit naff and cheap smelling but on the most part they are affordable and bloody good! I bought Adam Levine's new aftershave online as a blind buy. When it arrived I was really pleased with the packaging, it's a heavy bottle and it does not feel cheap.
Spraying it, I realised it would be perfect for going on holiday! It's not too heavy, it's fresh but it has a spice to it, one that clings to your skin and it lasts pretty well. The scent could easily carry you from day to night! Perfect for warm weather of Portugal. I definitely reccomend!
Cool Stuff
I got some cool new stuff for going on the trip!
I got some fudge hair products, I chose stuff that would keep my hair messy but wouldn't weigh it down! The heat abroad is murder on my hair so I wanted something that wouldn't take a lot of time to do. Use both products, style them with the blow dryer and mess it all up! Perfect and fast plus the smell is amazing. Definitely an essential!
Due to my ginger hair and freckled skin, fake tan is a must for me, I was feeling uneasy even thinking about being pale abroad. Some people can rock the pale skin and look amazing but it's not for me, especially when I have an excuse to be the darkest I can be! I chose the Sunkissed fake tan mousse, it's super cheap, I think it's only £4 and it smells amazing! I also picked up a Nivea BB cream because I needed something that would slightly tint my face. BB cream is brilliant because it moisturises and has an SPF in it so I don't burn.
I was eBay shopping recently and seen bandanas for 99p so I grabbed a few to tie around my head for when I'm by the pool and getting lunch. They are just a fun way to give your outfit a little something extra plus they are great for keeping my crazy hair our my face!
This is the cool thing! I picked up a fish eye lens for my iPhone camera so I can take some cool pictures at the villa! It just clips on so easily and you can take cool little snaps straight away. This is a picture I took the other day at lunch so you can see:
When I check back in I will be 22 years old, god that's scary to say! I will be sure to make a blog post about my trip!
Thanks, talk later!
