september favourites

Sorry about the slightly premature favourites post but I always seem to miss out on these monthly favourites as I leave it too late so here they are..Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation in 'Tawny' - As mentioned in my previous post I am in love with this foundation. Not only have I re-purchased but I use it every single day and currently it's the best foundation I've ever tried. If you like full coverage I'd definitely recommend you to...

Everyday Foundation Routine feat. Estee Lauder Double Wear

For the last few months I have stuck to the same 'face base' routine which is completely bizarre for me. Usually I'll swap between foundations each day, blend two types together, layer different foundations - anything in an attempt to achieve a perfect airbrushed finish.When I first purchased Estee Lauder's Double Wear I was a bit unsure about whether I liked it but now, it's love. I've almost used up my first bottle and I've already purchased...

glossy box september

I know I'm a bit late on the September GlossyBox bandwagon but I wanted to trial out the products so I could add in a mini review of each. I was lucky enough to be sent the September box for free to see what I thought and I was incredibly impressed with what was inside! By far my favourite item in the box is the HD Brow Kit, a full size product. Inside is a compact mirror, a mini applicator and four intensely pigmented shadows. Not only...

Favourite Nude Lipsticks

Top: Mac Myth Bottom: Natural Collection Apple Blossom I have loved nude lips ever since the trend came around a few years back. Embarrassingly so I was one of those girls that used to apply foundation to my lips. Not the greatest look, very drying and I don't advise it but I didn't know any better at the time. I had tried the highly talked about Gosh 'Darling' and Barry M 'Marshmellow' and neither worked well for me, the colours were...

YSL Rouge Volupte ' Nude Beige '

A few days ago I was rushing through Debenhams on a mission to solely pick up one YSL Rouge Volupte lipstick in the shade 'Pink Caress' for my '700 Followers Giveaway' winner. Of course once I'd seen the Rouge Volupte's up close in all their golden, embellished glory I was easily swayed to pop one on the counter for myself, fork over £44 and scarper off with my purchases.The shade I decided on for myself was 'Nude Beige - 1' although I...
