Clarins Aquatic Treasures Summer Collection |

Since it's official launch in May, I have been lusting after the Clarins Aquatic Treasures Summer Collection. The rich gold, shimmer shades and bronze tones automatically captured my heart from the first application and I'm pleased to report that none of the products I own from this collection have disappointed. 

Aquatic Treasures Summer Bronzing Compact* | £30 | Link | Every year Clarins releases a limited edition bronzer that everyone raves about endlessly and without a doubt I always kick myself for never picking it up. It is fair to say that when I opened up this bronzer it was love at first sight. With four matte shades in one palette, you can tailor your bronzer to your own skin tone or blend the four shades together to create an all over warmth and glow. What sells this the most to me is that not only does it smell amazing and is completely matte, I also find that it creates an effortless natural wash of colour for those 'no make up, make up days' that we all know and love. 

Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base - Apricot & Golden Bronze* | £26.50 | Link | At first I was a bit sceptical about using this product. Don't get me wrong; I love wearing tinted moisturisers and light bases in the Summer, but one that has shimmer in it - No thanks. However, after playing around with both shades for a couple of days I was sold. They can be worn on their own, over your make up or under. Out of the two offerings, I prefer using Golden Bronze as I found that Apricot was a bit too pink for me, however both shades are versatile, dewy and easily absorbed into the skin. I use the shade Apricot under my make up to promote a natural glow and a flawless base and I use Golden Bronze when I want to enhance my tan by mixing it in with my base product. 

Ombre Iridescent Eyeshadow - Aquatic Rose* | £19 | Link | By now I'm sure you're all aware of my love for anything rose gold, so when this landed on my doorstop I may have let out a massive squeal. Rose gold on the outside and inside - I don't mind if I do. The cream to powder formula is easy to work with, soft in texture and long lasting on the lids. This rose hued champagne shade looks amazing against a tan or as an inner corner highlighter for the eye.
