Living at sea for the week and exploring the beautiful country of Croatia in a very hot July is definitely one of my favourite trips ever.

I traveled with a group of girls and we booked with a company called Sail Croatia. We sailed through the mornings and docked up at a new location to spend the afternoons and evenings there which consisted of crystal clear waters, historic settings, lots of good food and parties.

So living on a boat for a week, in a tiny cabin only meant one thing... to pack light.

The three words I dread. Not only what clothes to take but what makeup to take?! So here are the products that I settled on...

1. Chanel Universal Bronze - A beautiful creamy lightweight bronzer I used as my base to warm up my complexion without looking heavy.

2. Mac pro long wear concealer - I mainly applied this around my eye area and a little bit on highlight points. I really like this concealer as it just stays put and doesn't feel too thick.

3. NYX Banana powder - I applied this all around my T-zone as i am quite oily and for the price of this powder it is amazing! I also love the colour.

4. Sleek contour palette - also another affordable amazing product! I doubled up this palette for face and eyes using all of the shades which saved space and created a really nice eye look as well as on the face - the highlight is my fave.

5. Charlotte Tilbury eyeliners - I used the Audrey liner round my lashes on the bottom and the top to create some definition around my eyes and then I used eye cheat on my waterline to open up my eye.

6. NYX brow pencil - I used shade chocolate as this is a really good shade for my colour hair, I love how thin the pencil is to achieve a really natural look.

7. Maybelline mascara - I loved this mascara as I couldnt be bothered with false eyelashes and it is a really build-able product which also does not transfer or smudge in the hot weather.

8. Charlotte Tilbury Penelope Pink - This was my go to lipstick which i paired up with Iconic nude lip liner for some definition around the lip line.

9. Lottie London Face Gems - I only wore these for Hideout Festival, they were so easy to apply and really transformed my simple go to makeup look into festival style with minimal effort.
