FOTD: The Golden Girl...

I decided that FOTD's are going to be a weekly thing now, if not more often. After last week's "Green Eyed Monster" look, I thought today I would go for something more toned down. It was really sunny this morning, and still is now but not as much, so I went for slight yellow tones and golds. With a pop of Pink on my lips. Here it is...





I have unsymmetrical lips, yes I know.

So here's the Face products I used today...
Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream, Light 
Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer, Fair 
Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder, Translucent 
NYC Cheek Glow Blusher, Central Park Pink 

Eyes...


NYC Eye Lash Curler
Miss Sporty Pump Up Lash Booster Mascara, Black 
Miss Sporty XX Volume Mascara, Black 
MUA Intense Colour Eyeliner Pencil, Snow White 
MUA Single Eyeshadow, Shade 2
Avon Glow Powder Eyeshadow, Golden Sand 

I also used a eyeshadow from the Coastal Scents 88 Ultra Shimmer Palette. The shade used is marked with a "X"


Lips...
  
Barry M Lip Paint, 155 Pretty Pink 
MUA Lip gloss, Shade 3 

I only slightly patted the Lip Paint onto my lips, then blended it out with my finger. Which is why it isn't as bold looking.

Another Tiny Haul A.K.A Two Things...

Since I mainly do small hauls on my blog and I went shopping again today. I thought why not? And thought I would upload another Haul involving two products. Both purchased from Superdrug, here's what I got.


So I've tried Maybelline's Dream Fresh BB Cream before, when they were giving away the samples on Facebook. I loved it! To be honest it's not really a BB Cream, It's more like a tinted moisturiser. But I love how it looks on my skin. It doesn't crease off or go oily around my nose, which I experience with most other face products, It's the perfect product for Summer!

I've finally hit pan on my Collection 2000 powder, and I fancied a change. I did like the Collection 2000 one, but it did make me look slightly orange, so I thought I'd try a translucent one! After reading amazing reviews about Rimmel's Stay Matte on Blogger and the Boot's website, I caved in and bought it today. I can't wait to try it out, It looks great!

If I Could Only Have One....

So a while ago i saw a lot of views about this on youtube, and recently an increasing number of blog posts < wooo big word;)

Basically this post is about out of your full makeup collection, if you could only have one thing out of each section eg. eyeliner, lipstick. What would it be. I actually really like reading/watching posts/videos like this, as I love seeing what other people like best and being introduced to new products. So here's what I picked as a full.

 minus bronzer because I don't wear it

So here's the face products I choose....

I didn't include primer as i just use the same one everyday so i thought there would be no point.

Sally Hansen Natural Beauty Your Skin Foundation, Ecru Beige

I really do like this foundation! Its the perfect shade for my pale skin and has great coverage. It doesn't cling to dry spots and lasts pretty much all day long. Its a very liquidity foundation so a little goes a long way, it also blends easy. I'm not sure were you can get this foundation, as i think its now discontinued, but i got this at Easter.

Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer, Fair 1

I reviewed this concealer yesterday so I've pretty much said all i wanted to say about it. Its a great concealer, easily one of the best concealers you will find at drugstore price and it gives fantastic coverage and lasts all day.  Its very thick, but is still easily blended, it doesn't cling to dry patches either. You can buy this from Superdrug or Boots. 

NYC Cheek Glow Blush, Central Park Pink

I don't wear blush that often as most other products, but when i do i almost always reach for this product. It gives a lovely "bronzed" glow to the cheeks, I definitely think this is a product that is more aimed at fair/pale skinned girls. Its easily build able, which i always look for it a blusher, and sheerly applied. Which is another thing i love about this product! Available at selected Superdrugs. 

NYC Smooth Skin Pressed Face Powder, Naturally Beige

Easily my favourite powder of the moment! One of the things i love the most about this is its more of a powder to set your liquid makeup, then a powder with pigment to even out your skin tone. It doesn't make your face look powdery or chalky. Applies evenly, and lasts about 6 hours, then needs touch up. Also in selected Superdrugs.


So here's the eye products I choose....

This looks like very few.... but ok:)

Clinique High Lengths Mascara , Black

This is just sample sized, from the Clinique mascara swap but I still love this baby! It does a A.M.A.Z.I.N.G job of seperateing eyelashes and making them look really long. It certainly doesn't clump at all, I just love it so much that I would even wear it on its own, without even a volume one. It also coats the lashes with a jet black coat of mascara 

Maybelline Colour Tattoo 24HR, Eternal Gold

I think I've already got a review up on this but I just love it! I was unsure about purchasing it at first in case it just creased and faded. I love how the eyeshadow applies wet then drys into the eyelid, it also feels light on your lid. Its really pigmented so a little goes a long way. I also think it looks great on people with green eyes. I haven't ever worn it for 24 hours but it did last all day. You can find this in Superdrug or Boots. 

MUA Intense Colour Eyeliner Pencil, Snow White

First of I love the name of this product, it really describes the colour ( Obviously ) However it also describes the pigmentation of this product and how it applies. Its a real pigmented eyeliner for only a pound, and its really  creamy to so it applies softly to the eye. I've used this everyday since i first purchased this , and think i might go buy another one for when i run out. 

Here's the Lip products I choose....

Only two, but hey ;)

Barry M Limited Edition Lipgloss Wand

Like i said its limited edition so it doesn't have a shade name, which is a shame cause i really love this. Its a pale pink shades with faint shimmers of blue, purple and sliver. I love Barry M lipgloss, like I mentioned in my review off few days ago. Its a really pigmented lipgloss, and has a great lasting power. Its very moisturising, and if it wasn't limited edition I would buy it again. 

MUA Professional Lip Boom Created With Alexander Burke, Cheeky

I don't want to go into much detail, as I'm planning on reviewing it soon also when I mange to get my hands on another one of the shades Doin' Good which I'm dying to get. Let's just say you don't no what your missing if you don't own one of these. Seriously! I just can't express how great this product is, a double ended matte lipstick and highlighting lipgloss, what more could you ask for?;)

Thanks for Reading! :)xxx

Haul - Superdrug & Boots

Okay, so I'm going to get right into it as the post is very *picture heavy*

Only 5 things but still a haul :)

First thing i got was the NYC Smooth Skin pressed face powder.

Shade "Naturally Beige"

I haven't been getting on very well with my current face powder, the MUA one. I'm not too sure if the formula has been changed or something it just doesn't look good with foundation underneath, and totally changes the colour of my foundation and makes my face makeup look really cakey. Even though I've repurchased the MUA one 3 times, I thought I'd give this a go. 



In a recent blog post I reviewed the Collection Cream Puff Lip Cream in Fairy Cake. I thought I'd get another shade from the range, this one in Cotton Candy, as i really liked Fairy Cake. 

NYC City Curls Curling Mascara
Shade Carbon (Black) 

I really like the wand on this mascara! I've heard good & bad things about the NYC mascaras, but for the few pound i paid for this I thought I'd give it a shot anyway. 
 
 
 Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer
 
 
 
I've heard some amazing things about this concealer! I read on blogger somewhere that it was even compared to mac. I really can't wait to review this concealer , and see if it really is a High Street Gem! In shade "Fair 1"

Maybelline Color Tattoo 24HR Cream Gel Shadow
Shade Eternal Gold

Saved the best till last!;)
I think I may be a bit slow on the whole "Color Tattoo" thing. But I really wanted to try one of these out, and for the price you get a more then generous amount and there so pigmented when swatched they will last ages!
