First MAC purchase!

So I finally gave in and bought something by MAC! I have nothing against it I just could never afford anything haha, I went on a trip to Westfield in Stratford, London and thought I would pop in.

I've always heard about how good MAC's foundations are and the people who I see using them always have flawless looking skin and great coverage and I thought dammit I want that too! lol

I ended up purchasing the Matchmaster SPF 15 foundation which was around £24-£27 I believe.

My shade is 8.5 and I kind of thought it was a bit orange lol but I like it!

Pre foundation lol

Post foundation!

 I've had a lottt of compliments about my skin and asking what foundation I use etc and I am very happy! I have other foundations in my collection but I don't think I'll be turning back for a while.

God bless

My first wish list!!

(None of the below pictures belong to me)
I've never done a post like this but pay day is drawing near (wahooooooooo!!) and I have a few things on my mind that I really would love to purchase, I highly doubt I will get them all at once but it doesn't hurt to get them down on (electronic) paper haha.

1) MAC Matchmaster foundation £27

I got a tester from my local MAC counter & fell in love with this foundation! I believe I am shade 8.5 and I can't wait to get it! Let's just hope it really is a "Matchmaster" because I have a tendency to get foundations in slightly the wrong shade lol

2) White Blazer Zara £49.99

White blazers are gorgeous and a great staple to have! I hardly ever buy items of clothing over £30 but for this I sooooo would lol. I can imagine pairing it with a pair of jeans and black heels*day dreamssss*

Not sure if this is the exact blazer I tried on in Zara but it is very similar.

3) Vera Wang Pink Princess Eau de toilette £24 - £35 depending on shop & bottle size

So I was taking a walk through Boots and the display for this perfume really caught my eye! The bottle is pretty and typically girlie and the scent is incredible! It's floral & fruity at the same time and one spray lasted for ages!

4) Revlon ColourBurst Lip butters £7.99

My lips cannot deal with anything drying on them as they are already pretty dry so when I saw these are lip butters and give you great colour and moisture I had to add them to my list! Apparently they are really pigmented too which is always a plus! Haven't decided on which colour though.

5) Winged/ Cat eye sunglasses

I'm not 100% sure if "winged" is the correct term for these glasses as I kept finding glasses with actual wings designs on them LOL but I love the shape of these frames and would totally wear them this summer even just on the way to work haha!

Lush!! If you know where I can get a pair similar to these please let me know!

6) Tickets to Hawaii or Cuba for me & my closest friends

Ah one day, one day :")

So what do you think of my list? I'm sureee there is more but I can't remember lol

Anything you would advise against or recommend?

God Bless

Late night 60's/Rockabilly attempt!

I didn't fancy putting my hair in the usual flexi rods/flexi rollers so I decided to put it in pin curls! I searched YouTube and found some great tutorials.

 I tied my hair down with a scarf as I always do before sleeping and noticed one of the curls was peeking out of the front which I thought looked pretty cool so I decided to take a few snaps, one thing led to another and the lipstick, eye liner and concealer came out haha! Bare in mind this was before bed LOL.

                                               Eye liner: BYS Black Magic gel eye liner pot

                                               Lipstick: Luoys 2 in 1 Lip gloss and Lipstick

                                              Concealer: Revlon Beyond Natural Concealer & Highlight

Like my curtains? haha

God Bless

Boots No7 Stay Perfect Foundation!

I recently went to MAC to take a look at some foundation and I found the most gorgeous shade that matched my skin, the coverage was great and everything was perfect....except the price lol. I'm sure one day I'll buy it but I couldn't stretch to that much at the time..so I was on the hunt for something similar!

I remembered that No7 do some great foundations so I headed there and I purchased the first one I picked up!

It's No7 Stay Perfect Foundation which has SPF 15 (always a win!) and is supposed to last all day through till night! (16 hours) and claims that it's rub resistant and non fading! Double win! (I touch my face a lot...bad I know)

Well I was sold! So I decided to buy it! And it was £14, not a bad price.

I love it! It has great coverage, gives a slightly matte finish which I love but I would suggest moisturising your face well before applying!


Here's how it looked on my hand...

Before (clean face)

During lol!

And after!

Pretty pleased! 

What are you're favourite brands for foundations?

God bless

Sorry I've been gone for a while! - not sure if anyone noticed or actually reads these posts but it's nice to be blogging again haha!
The thing with blogging is even if you don't have a large following it's great to get your thoughts down on (virtual) paper, express your thoughts and be creative!

Uni has totally taken over so I haven't had much time but I will certainly make time to do more posts!...

What's been going on with me?...:

Where to start!!...

• Well its about a month and 20 days until my uni trip to Malta! (hurray!) still got to send of my passport but I'm praying it will all work out in time! This also means I'm trying even harder to get fit before I fly out!

• I purchased Ben Nye Banana powder and omgshhh this stuff lives up to the hype!! I also bought Ben Nye Final Seal Matte Make up Sealer spray....omgshhh even more amazing haha my make up has never stayed on for so long, but you will hear about these soon....

• Me and my sister done an awesomeeee jazz gig at a uni close to ours called UCA and it was so much fun!

So much more has been going on including new hair! But I'm not 100% keen on the hair so may not do a full post on it...

Anything new going on with you guys?

God Bless

I gave my sis a make over :D...

...Not that she needed it! But she wanted one so we went make up shopping and I showed her some pretty cool products not that I'm an expert but I've read up on enough to know whats crap and whats decent lol

What shop did we hit? Superdrug of course! My favourite!

Okay this is my sis :D (left) natural beauty....

and this is what we picked up!

 Maybelline FIT Foundation in shade 355, this stuff is awesome! Great coverage and blends to both our skin tones when they are slightly different! (I picked up one too heehee)

We love Sleek! This is their Suede Effect pressed powder, awesome but can look too cakey if you apply too much

If you saw my last post you will see I have this next product too! This one is in the slightly darker shade and is so awesome! It's the corrector and concealer palette by Sleek (again lol), great for under your eyes and highlighting your brows (blend well as it is quite thick)

Also by Sleek is a product from their Blush By 3 Collection which is incredible! The blushes are so pigmented and come out amazing! You have to watch how much colour you use though, for obvious reasons  haha so it's best to start light and build up the colour. 

 Next up was a brown eye brow pencil by MUA, only £1!

This product is epic! Its MUA's Gel liner and is only £3 creates a gorgeous dark line doesn't fade much at all!

And some little starter brushes , the left set are some cheap ones from Wilkinsons and the right is a blending brush from Superdrug

Before!

After! (left)

 Finished look for her 21st birthday!

Doesn't she look pretty! :')

Concealer! :)

Firstly this is my first blog that im writing on my phone so bare with me if it looks a bit dodgey Haha!

I bought a 15 colour concealer palette off ebay which took foreverrrr to get to me but i think its worth it as it was only £5!! Just make sure you check the reviews to see if the seller is reliable -_____- lol

Here's some pictures :D...

I bought some new lashes! Woop!

I have naturally long lashes but I love buying them to wear on special occasions (special occasions as in when the lash actually decides stick to my eye properly -__- lol)

I hadn't even planned to buy any but then I saw in Superdrug that the Girls Aloud range had a new one out! The 10th Anniversary Celebration Lash! 

 Girls Aloud lashes have always appeared to me to be good quality and natural looking so I thought I'd give them a try! (This specific lash is meant to be a combination of all the Girls Aloud eyelashes)

When I buy lashes I always try and find ones that have a clear lash line instead of a thick black one because to me they look unnatural and are really hard for me to glue on lol! :'(

The packaging:

The contents:

The lashes! They start thin at the centre then gradually wing out thicker (You see what I mean about the clear lash line)

The glue (sorry for the blur)

Free Girls Aloud lanyard

Instruction leaflet

The glue isn't the worst I've tried, it kept one of the lashes on all night but the other lash I accidentally lashed and it came a bit loose haha! I should have used more (use quite a bit of glue)

Here's the finished product below! Ignore the slightly strange face expression haha!

Do you wear lashes? Got a favourite? Post below!

God Bless
