Hello everyone.
Today I'm doing a makeup repurchases post. I thought I'd have a few more things to show you than I do, but some of the stuff I've had for 6months + and it still hasn't run out yet so I thought I'd not include that yet.
So, the first repurchase I go to time and time again is Collection's Lasting Perfection concealer. It's £4.99 and one of the best concealers I've ever used. It covers redness really well, stays put all day and lasts for months! The one downside is it is a nightmare to get hold of the shade 1 Light because it's always sold out. I tend to buy 2 at a time just incase.
This foundation I go back to time and time again. It's Estee Lauder's Double Wear and it's just wonderful. I have to get up pretty early for work and I get home around 6:30 / 7pm and my foundation just doesn't budge. I only use a little bit of powder under my eyes and my t-zone and it stays in place all day. 100% worth the £29!
I tend to harp on about Max Factor's 2000 Calorie mascara quite a bit so I'll keep it short. I love it, it's only £8.99, it doesn't smudge and it lasts a good few months. There.
My final makeup item I love to repurchases is my all time favourite lipstick from Mac, yep you guessed it, Ruby Woo. Gahh I love it so much! It's such a lovely shade when I have my naturally milk bottle skin tone or when I have a tan. Stays put all day too which is a must when it comes to lipstick.
What are your makeup repurchases?
This is my last post for a while as on Tuesday evening I'm off to Glastonbury! Gahhh I'm so excited I can't even deal! I can't wait to show you all my outfits from the week and fill you in on my time there.
Speak to you all soon xoxo
Hello everyone.
Hope you all had a lovely weekend.
Today I'm sharing with you a makeup look that I've been loving recently. The products I used are a mix of high end and drugstore. Sometimes I find drugstore products are just as good as high end, although foundation wise, I much prefer high end. I think it's because drugstore foundation just doesn't agree with my skin so much. It never really stays put and doesn't give me enough courage. I do wish I could find one that worked amazing for me then I could spend a lot less money!
So, face wise, I used the following...
I applied Benefit's Porefessional on my forehead, nose area and a tiny bit on my chin then proceeded with applying my holy grail foundation of choice, Estee Lauder's Double Wear. Moving onto concealer I actually use two (I know, diva much?) I apply Benefit's Boiing under my eyes then Smashbox's new 24 Hour CC Spot Concealer to my cheeks to try and conceal my scars and any spots I may have. I actually only bought this a few weeks ago and it's pretty good. Only downside is it leaks out the bottle as you can see in the photo. I then use Rimmel's Stay Matte powder under my eyes and Loreal's Nude BB Powder on my t-zone area. The next step I did is a light contour using Barry M's Natural Dazzle . I won't go into too much detail as this will be included in my May Favourites post... The final step face wise is Lord & Berry's highlighter which I applied on the top of my cheekbones.
Moving onto eyes and lips...
I first sort my eyebrows out as I feel a bit more together when they're done. I love Anastasia Beverley Hills Pomade as it darkens my brows and they don't budge which is what every girl wants. I then applied a little bit of Benefit's Stay Don't Stray to my eyelids so my eyeshadow doesn't slip and slide everywhere. Eye wise I used my Urban Decay Naked 2 Palette and applied Booty Call to my whole lid then Chopper to the outer corner and then finally, Half Baked to the centre of my lid. I finished my eye look by plastering on lots of Max Factor's 2000 Calorie mascara to my lashes.
The final stage of this makeup look which shall be revealed below is lips. I love love love this lip liner from Barry M! It was only like £2 and is fab. I line my lips then colour my whole lip with it then apply Barry M's Lip Gloss in toffee. Which FYI smells like toffee, yum!
So how did this look turn out you ask? Get ready for some posy pictures....
Hope you like this look. Let me know what you think and what you're favourite makeup looks are!
