Are April and May the best time of year for you too? I love knowing the bank holidays are coming up, especially with the heat wave approaching! Bank Holidays have never felt more important, with working from home and all the changes to our routine, sometimes we just need to hit that reset button and that’s exactly what the bank holiday represents. A day of rest, relaxation, and exploration (for some), why not stock up on some bank holiday must haves and really treat yourself for this final bank holiday for a little while…
As you know how important SPF is to me, that will be at the very top of the list for my bank holiday must haves! Whether that is spray spf or liquid spf, whichever you prefer just make sure you are lathering it on every day, especially when the sun comes out to play from Monday, with the weather looking good across the UK and Scentsational’s big sale, you have no excuse to forget that SPF! The bioderma Pigmentbio day cream has SPF 50 protection and does not leave behind the thick white layer upon the skin, it is quickly absorbed and allows for seamless makeup application. I understand that some SPF moisturisers cause makeup to shift underneath or speed up the process of oil production, but the biological formula of the Pigmentbio prevents this from happening. You don’t have to break the bank either for this liquid SPF. In this case with liquid spf or spray spf, this is a great contender for the liquid! https://www.scentsational.com/women-c2/bioderma-pigmentbio-brightening-face-cream-spf50-40ml-p42857
With the forecasts looking great for the upcoming month of June, there really is an SPF for everyone, especially as your bank holiday must have. Whether your working or hitting the pub, you must be applying that protection at all times!
The next bank holiday must have is bronzing oil! After weeks and weeks, of what seemed like endless rain, you should utilise this time to top up your tan over the bank holiday weekend. The formula of the Decleor Summer Oil is that whilst you tan, you still have that SPF 30 protection, so it is a safe tan whilst making sure it is evenly distributed and not patchy. It is enriched with Manoi oil to keep your skin looking soft and supple and a top tip is that you can even use it on your hair! Reapply every 2 hours and it is water resistant, so even if you don’t use it this bank holiday weekend, make it a summer must have with your UK staycations!

The next bank holiday must have is a refreshing and radiant lippy! Take this bank holiday to take out your summer outfits including your sunglasses and put on a lipstick that will really pop. After so long in lockdown, treat yourself to something that makes you feel great, without having to put a mask on top! A great bank holiday lipstick must have is something with a glossy finish with a coral tinge, to remind us that summer and freedom is just around the corner. NYX are known for their glossy lip formulas without having to break the bank, so treat yourself to a small gift with the NYX mega shine lipstick in the shade 134 sunrise! It leaves your lips feeling soft and moisturised underneath and reflects beautifully under the sun, you cant go wrong with this bank holiday must have… Nyx Cosmetics Lip Gloss with Mega Shine – 134 Sunrise (scentsational.com)
The final bank holiday must have is the newest addition from Marc Jacobs, the Daisy love petals in the 20ml travel size. Take this with you wherever you go this bank holiday and each spray transports you to the beach! This Eau de Toilette is great for the bank holiday because even though we can’t travel very much right now, the smell transports you to whichever beach you want to be at! The travel size is reminsicient to our holidays which I hope are just around the corner! The floral infusion oozes with the jasmine blooming heart and tickles the senses.
