I permit you all to have a good laugh at my \u2018Summer\u2019 haul, so what if it\u2019s not even Spring in Scotland \u2013 it\u2019s called being prepared, alright? And maybe if I stock up on enough sun essentials, the weather will actually pick up and we\u2019ll experience summer this year. Optimistic, indeed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I spent all of Wednesday in town searching for a wedding outfit \u2013 to no avail, although I do have one now AND Jordan and I match, which is pretty cute \u2013 and of course, some beauty shopping happened too. I stocked up on a few hair bits and some Essie shades, because why not.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
My obsession with R+Co haircare is still very much a thing, I am on to my fourth bottle of the R+Co Rockaway Salt Spray (\u00a323), which is almost \u00a3100 spent on making my hair all texturised and nice. Yikes. Let\u2019s not think about that. This stuff is the Holy Grail of all salt sprays, I would probably say it\u2019s my favourite, it\u2019s the best buy for adding lots of lovely volume and grit, but with a no-crunch, soft finish. It creates real waves in my hair, and generally gives it a lovely finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I also picked up another R+Co buy, although I spent so long at the stand that I\u2019m surprised I didn\u2019t leave with the lot. I bought the R+Co Dallas Thickening Spray (\u00a326), which is apparently the key to a proper at-home blowdry. It builds body at the roots, plumping the hair and creating super volume in the locks. I haven\u2019t tried it yet, but I\u2019ll keep you posted. The bottle is enough for me to love it right now\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n
As for Essie, well I tend to always stock up on Essie polishes when I\u2019m in Boots. There\u2019s always a seasonal collection I want in on! I picked up Essie Pedal Pushers (\u00a37.99), a sleek dark lilac grey \u2013 I love this as it\u2019s one of those shades that looks different in every light, sometimes it\u2019s more of a pastel, and others it looks more of a gunmetal grey. I can\u2019t wait to get this on! (Note: apparently this is called Petal Pushers, but mine definitely says Pedal? Who knows).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I also went for Essie Resort Fling (\u00a37.99), these gorgeous corals are my \u2018go to\u2019 shades for this time of year, and I know this hue will be the perfect wedding guest shade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A couple of picks that will be staples this summer \u2013 have you tried these? Oh, and sunglasses are from here.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I permit you all to have a good laugh at my \u2018Summer\u2019 haul, so what…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":182,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[5],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=181"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1216,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/181\/revisions\/1216"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/182"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=181"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=181"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=181"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
