#ad | Products gifted @ylwclub recently sent me t #ad | Products gifted @ylwclub recently sent me their Day Cream and Night Cream to try out - a duo I didn’t know I needed until now! The Day Cream is light and gel-like, offering a ton of hydration while still feeling weightless on the skin. It dries down to a non-tacky finish which looks lovely under makeup. This is going to be a summer staple for sure! The Night Cream has already firmly embedded itself into my PM routine. I love how rich and nourishing this is - my skin just drinks it up. It’s the kind of moisturiser that can make you look like you’ve had a good night’s sleep, even if you’ve only had 3 hours. I’m really enjoying using this one! If you want to try these out, you can use my code THESUMMERSTUDY20 for 20% off 😊

#ad | Gifted Happy spring everyone!! 🌸🌷💗 Finally #ad | Gifted Happy spring everyone!! 🌸🌷💗 Finally getting round to trying the @wildrefill Roll On Deodorant and I’m loving it so far! No white marks, no flakiness and a lightweight, fast-drying finish - what’s not to like?! The odour prevention seems to be pretty good too… but I have been testing this during the winter so I don’t feel like I’ve pushed it to its limits. The true test will be the summer - I’ll have to come back and update then! Have you tried Wild’s Roll On? What are your thoughts? 🥰 You can use my discount code SUMMERSTUDY20 for money off on the Wild website
A little stop motion fun with some @caudalie minis A little stop motion fun with some @caudalie minis I meant to post this last year but couldn’t bring myself to edit it after I shot it 😂 This travel set definitely has spring vibes so now felt like the perfect time to post! 🌷🌸💜
#ad | Gifted products A few glimpses of the sun a #ad | Gifted products A few glimpses of the sun and I’m already in full spring/summer mode ☀️So when @balibody sent me a couple of bits to try, the timing couldn’t have been more perfect. Their Clear Self Tan Gel is a lightweight, leave-on formula designed to be completely mess-free. It sinks into the skin quickly and doesn’t stain clothes or bed sheets - always a win. I love how easy this is to apply, despite the lack of guide colour. It feels more like skincare than self tan - like you’re rubbing a hydrating serum into the skin. The only drawback for me is the undertone. It pulls slightly orange on my skin, though I have seen it look much more natural on others. I think it’s a case of experimenting with the developing time to find that sweet spot! I haven’t been testing their Gradual Tanning Butter for as long, but I’m enjoying it so far. It gives a natural, healthy glow which makes my pale skin look a bit more alive! The only thing to note is the shimmer, which does seem to get everywhere. Not a huge deal but I probably would avoid wearing white clothes with this as it does transfer! Have you tried either of these? What’s your go-to product for glowy summer skin? ✨ Check out my blog for a full review of the Clear Tan Gel and find links for these products in the ShopMy in my bio
#ad | Gifted Introducing the three newest @pixibe #ad | Gifted Introducing the three newest @pixibeauty On-the-Glow Blush shades: Chantilly, Mauve, and Cassis 😍 With its balmy texture, this blush is both buildable blendable. It’s perfect for light makeup days when you just want to add a healthy hint of colour to your cheeks. Cassis (the plum shade) is probably my most used of the three. This one has the greatest colour payoff, so it takes very little effort to apply. Mauve is the perfect rosy flush, it’s super soft and subtle. Chantilly is a little more peachy but a bit too similar to my skin tone to show up in full effect. It works well in combination with the other two shades though! Have you tried this blush? What are your thoughts on the new shades? ✨ You can find these linked in the Shopmy in my bio 😊
#ad | Some products gifted And my @beautyofjoseon #ad | Some products gifted And my @beautyofjoseon_official collection continues to grow… If you could pick only one product of theirs to use from this point on, what would it be? ✨ Btw code THESUMMERSTUDY will get you 10% off on the BoJ website
