An unhealthy obsession: makeup + chocolate

 alohaaaaa

I haven't bought anything but lipstick lately, its an unhealthy obsession I must agree, however for a long time now I have been wanting an easy every day eyeshadow. 

Personally, I don't feel eyeshadow particularly suits me, however I still went ahead and about the naked palette.....and the second..but nevertheless I still felt I wanted a colour with a bit more sparkle. MAC released a few paint pots in a collection last year, however I didn't get round to buying any of them. 

I then noticed that they had re launched some new paint pots from the same collection, and one really stood out to me.....

Vintage Selection - £16.00 

subtle sparkly champagne colour

The paint pot was not enough to satisfy my makeup craving so I went and bought a lipstick.....

MAC Rebel - £14.00

PS... I baked today

chocolate brownies

A week of essays and revision is planned for the next few days so I'm hoping to write some more blogs soon, keep y'all posted.

Foundation + New Boots

Alohaaa

I'm home, and the end of second year at University is approaching fast. 

I have neglected you once again, but this week I have had numerous people ask me about my foundation and advice on good products, this therefore inspired me to write a blog on foundations I am loving.

(excuse the mess)

ESTEE LAUDER DOUBLE WEAR

OK, first up please put your hands together for Estee Lauder's Double wear in the color 'Shell'

I completley swear by this foundation and anyone who is looking for a pale yet matte foundation this is deffinitly the one to choose. The coverage is amazing, however once buffed into the skin it will last for about 2 days! seriously (dont ask why i went 2 days without washing but i did).

I could dip my face in water and my skin would still look flawless, this foundation is like cement (in a good way) it just does not move.

At work due to working in the kitchen sometimes, the heat seriously causes the skin to become slightly greasy, however I do not have to worry when wearing this.

This cost roughly £28.00 however it is worth every penny, leaves no shine and has a wide color range so pale skin girls your searching is over.

NARS SHEER GLOW

Another beautiful foundation however like it says in the name 'sheer glow' therefore gives a duey look on the skin.

 I prefer to wear this foundation when going out for the day , although this foundation lasts long, it starts to go patchy after around 6 hours. The color however is not as pale as I would like and therefore isn't my first choice everyday.  This foundation is £30.50 which i think is expensive however the name says it all. 

LAURA MERCIER SILK CREME FOUNDATION

Right first of i was really excited to buy this foundation as i have the tinted moisturizer which is amazing. HOWEVER... i hateeeee this foundation!!! seriously what is up with it?!  this foundation just does not agree with my skin, i have used a buffing brush to try and work it into my skin however it just seems to sit on top and starts to move around all day. Yes it gives a nice glow to the skin however it just feels like cream that has not settled into the skin which i hate!

I have heard really good reviews about this foundation that's why im so disappointing with the outcome. I wont be re purchasing this especially as it cost £33.00 

NEWWWWW SHOEEESSSSS!!!

stress and worry has seriously got to me the past few weeks, thanks uni ;)

Glancing around Topshop and i spot these beautys...

Topshop Black Ankle Boots £75.00

This boots are so comfy and I really like the way they look on me. With a slight heel they can be dressed up or dressed down depending on the occasion. Their really strong and tough so I feel they will last me a long time, however its topshop....their quality is pretty shit for the price you pay.

untill next time ...
