Maybelline Colour Tattoo

Hello everyone! I know I've been so bad with my posts but schools just taking over my life! 

Today I'm going to do a review on the maybelline colour tattoo in 'on an on bronze' 



This has been highly rated so I was eager to try it, the packaging looked really cute and the colour looked quite nice.

It comes out really shimmery but if you put a matte eyeshadow over the top it tones it down if you prefer it that way


It's really creamy and it definitely does stay on all day, it does look really nice on its own if I can't be bothered with eyeshadow but I generally do use other eyeshadows with it.


It's only £5.99 so I would definitely recommend, I am probably going to buy some more colours soon and I enjoy using it very much.

Thankyou for reading:)

Haul!

Hello everyone! So I went shopping the other day and so I wanted to do a haul, I realise my last post was also a haul but I was just so excited to get this up! 




First of all I'll start with what I bought from Victoria's Secret, they had just opened a shop and I was interested in the fragrances so I went to look at them and I ended up buying the body mist, moisturiser and the 2 in 1 wash and scrub, all in the Warm and Cosy scent, This is a vanilla scent but its not too strongly vanilla it has something else there but I can't decide what, I love all three of these products and with the 3 for £25 offer on I would definitely recommend you buying them.


Next I bought the Sleek Blush Trio in Lace, this is one of the main reasons I went shopping and I'm so happy with it, the colours are absolutely beautiful and for only £10 I think that this is a really good buy!


Next I got the Barry M Eyeshadow Pencil in Gold Cream, I got this for highlighting my brow bone and my inner corner, I haven't used this yet but it looks really pretty and I'm excited to give it a try.


Also from Barry M I purchased the Lip Gloss in Strawberries and Cream, I absolutely love this! it's really nice on and goes on well over other lipsticks but at first it doesn't look a very nice colour but if you don't put too much on it looks really nice.


Then last of all I got the Natural Collection Single Eyeshadow in Crushed Walnut, In the photo it looks really dark but I got this for my brows, I haven't tried this yet but I am interested to see what it will look like.

Thankyou for reading! I hope you enjoyed my post, bye!:)

Superdrug/Boots Haul

Hello! I'm sorry I've not posted anything in a while but I'm in holiday at the moment and all my Pre written posts got deleted! But I went shopping the other day and so here's what I bought and for the products I've used what my first impression is!


First of all in Boots there was a 3 for 2 offer on the maybelline products and so I got the colour tattoo in 'on and on bronze' which I used today and I love the colour and I didn't have it on for as long as the product says it lasts but I had it on around 8 hours and it stayed really well.

Next after loving my baby lips in 'pink punch' I decided to get it in 'cherry me' and this smells amazing!! I love the colour and I really recommend these.

Last from Boots I got the dream pure BB cream in 'medium' and I got the one for oily skin which the difference is that it has salicylic acid in. I haven't used this yet but when I have I'll write a review.

From Superdrug firstly I got the MUA power pout in 'justify' my friend got this the other day and I loved it so when I got the chance I went and bought it, it smells like after eights which is amazing and it's a red with a little orange tint in it. This product is only £3 and I love it.

Next I got two Witch products, I got the foaming face wash and the primer, I've never seen this brand but I want to give it a go, it's really reasonably priced and seems as though it could be quite good!

And last of all I got 3 Simple products, the deep cleansing face mask, the oil balancing moisturising and the toner, I've heard good things about these and so I'm glad I got the chance to buy these .

Thankyou for reading! Bye:)

Beauty Products Wish List

Hey! Today I'm going to do a 'Wish List' which is basically items that I'm wanting to buy within the next few months, I won't be able to write much about them but I'll explain a little as to why I want them.

First of all I would like to buy another one of Maybelline's Baby Lips but this time I want it in the shade 'Cherry Me'. After using my other one, which is in the shade 'Pink Punch' I really would like to buy this one.


Next, I have had my eye on the Boujoir Bronzing Powder for quite some time, I have gone to buy it multiple times but never actually done it, I've heard so many good review about it so I'm keen to purchase it.

Next on my list is the famous Essie Nail Varnish in 'Mint Candy Apple' so many people go on about this that it's made me want to buy it so bad! I definitely think I will be getting this soon as it looks such a pretty colour and so many people seem to love it.


Next is the MUA Power Pout, which is sort of a Lip Crayon, in the shade 'Justify'. My friend recently bought this and I'm in love with it! It smells like after eights which I love so that made me want to buy it and also I'm not sure what shade my friend bought but I really like this one.


And last of all is the MAC Studio Fix Fluid, I have recently bought a MAC concealer and now I am desperate to buy this foundation, my sister has it and she loves it and says it last all day which is something I really need in a foundation, at £21.50 it is pricey but I really would like to splash out and try it out.


Thankyou for reading! Bye!

Bodyshop Body Butter

Hello, so today I'm going to be reviewing Bodyshops Body Butter, I have tried a few different scents but only have the Blueberry one myself, these are normally £13 but go on sale quite a lot of the time so are then only £6.50, I think for these £13 is a lot to pay but it becomes reasonable when half price.


This smells absolutely amazing! All of the ones I have smelt, I love. 

Unusually, some of these body butters have are quite thick but then others are a lot more thin and runny, I don't know why this is but the Blueberry one I have now is thick.


You can really smell the product when you are wearing it and for me a little bit goes a long way, It doesn't take too long to soak into your skin when rubbed in well which is one of the main reason I love it, I hate having to wait for moisturizer to dry not knowing what to do.

I plan on buying the Apricot scent next as I really like that one aswell, I recommend these as there isn't really anything particularly bad to say about them!

You can buy these here but at the moment in stores they are half price!
Thankyou for reading!:)

Nightime Routine

Hello, I'm going to write about my nightime routine today, I don't do this every single night, only when I have put makeup on that day, so here it is!

Here are all the products I put on;

It's not a lot I would say because I just like to keep it all as simple as I can, I change my routine so much so this will probably change soon so when/if it does then I'll be sure to do an updated one!

So first I put on Simple Purifying Cleansing Lotion, I got this so long ago but I just didn't use it and I hated it and I rediscovered this not long ago and now I use it all the time, I want to buy more 'Simple' products at some point because I really like this, I just rub it into my skin and wash it off, I use this for eye makeup as well and it does that job well. You can buy it here for £2.99 http://www.boots.com/en/Simple-Kind-To-Skin-Purifying-Cleansing-Lotion-200ml_772/

Next I put a mix of Neutrogena's Oil-Free face wash and the Pink Grapefruit one, I bought the pink one first and it majorly dried out my skin but the two together seem to work well and this just further takes my makeup off and it's really good, after these are empty I'll probably try some more out though, you can buy the oil free one here for £2.99as it's on sale at the moment but its originally £4.94  http://www.boots.com/en/Neutrogena-Visibly-Clear-Oil-Free-Facial-Wash-200ml_1114061/ and the Pink Grapefruit one here for £3.29 on sale but its originally £4.94 http://www.boots.com/en/Neutrogena-Visibly-Clear-Pink-Grapefruit-Facial-Wash-200ml_1110491/

Sometimes then I would use a toner but I don't use one all of the time so I didn't include it.


Thankyou for reading, bye!:)

MAC Prolong Wear Concealer Review/First Impressions

Hello! So today I'm going to do a review on one of my recent purchases, which is the MAC Prolong Wear Concealer, I got this a few days ago and have only tried it a few times so it's a review and a first impressions (which it says in the title obviously!) so i'll get right into it!


Okay so first of all I got mine in the Shade NW20, when I got to the MAC counter/area I asked someone who worked there to see which shade I needed, I didn't really want to splash out a little on something that wasn't the right shade!



The packaging is nice and simple, it has a pump which I guess has it's pro's and con's, I do prefer having the concealer from a pump rather than being on a brush or being a stick form but with this pump it meant you couldn't control how much came from one pump so sometimes some could be wasted.

You need the tiniest bit as it goes such a long way! I was so amazed at how little you need. When I was putting it on, I used a small brush to dap it on then used my finger to blend it all out.

I put it on first under my eyes and it looked so much better afterwards! It has such a good coverage and it covered all of my blemishes really well!

Although this is a bit pricey at £15.50, it was definitely worth it as it definitely does last a long time! I'm definitely going to buy the foundation soon and eventually I might buy the powder.

Thankyou for reading, hope you enjoyed!

Schwarzkopf Got2Be Hairspray Review

Hello again! So today I'm going to review the 'Schwarzkopf Got2Be 2 Sexy Big Volume Hairspray' when I bought this around Christmas time I was well in need of a new hairspray and I went shopping with a friend and she said I should get it and it was only a few pounds so I decided to get it.



First of all the packaging is really pretty and that instantly drew me in, when first using it on my hair it seemed pretty good and it smelled really nice! But then after a minute or two my hair became really sticky and felt horrible, all my hair stuck together and became really cripsy I guess you could say! 

I left it in to see what the hold was like and it does hold okay, not the best I've tried but it seems to hold updo's better than curls etc.

I wouldn't really recommend this product at all unless you seem to like sticky hair! The only good things about this is the smell and the packaging which aren't exactly things to look for!

Thankyou for reading! Bye!

Mini Haul!

Hey, so today I'm just going to write about some products I've bought mostly today but some last week, this is quite a small hauls as they're is only about 7 items (which I think is quite small for a haul but some might not) 

I have used some of these products already so the ones I have I will give a small review about and if I haven't then I'm sure in some post in the future I'll write about them.



Okay so first of all I got two sample sizes of Yankee Candles, surprisingly I've never had a Yankee Candle before but I've always wanted one! I was out shopping and saw that in Clintons if you buy one you get the second half price so I went in but had no intentions of buying one as I only had a few pounds on me, for both of the it ended up costing only £2.70 and they burn for about 15 hours! I got 'Vanilla Cupcake' and 'Salted Caramel' and they smell amazing!! Before I had even lit them you can smell them so strongly in my room, the 'Vanilla Cupcake' is basically when it says and the 'Salted Caramel' smells like Butterscotch Angel Delight, they are a good price and smell great! I'll definitely get full sizes soon.



Next I bought Maybelline's Colossal Mascara and I got the Cat Eyes one, I've only used this once but the brush is really nice as it's curved and from when I put it on I had no clumps and my eyelashes looked really long! This was £7.99 from Boots and from what I've seen I really like it.

Next I got Maybellines Baby Lips, in the shade 'Pink Punch' I've wanted this for a while and I'm so glad I've finally got it! I haven't opened it yet but I've heard great things and its only £2.99!

I also got Rimmel's Wake Me Up Foundation, I've used this before and it really does do what it says as it makes you look more alive I guess you could say if it's early in the morning, it's got about medium coverage I would say and I got it from Boots also for £8.98 

Last of all this isn't really a 'beauty' item but I thought I would include it anyway! I got some aviator sunglasses, I purchased these from H&M and they were £4.99, I've wanted some of these for quite some time and they seem quite good quality so I'm happy with this purchase!


Thankyou for reading! I hope I didn't bore you! Bye!:)

Beauty Blogger Tag

Hello, so I wanted to do a tag today but I didn't have any in mind so I looked around and found this one, I can't remember where I found it so I'm sorry to whoever made it!

1. Name a beauty routine you barely do.
I don't moisturize as much as I probably should, I skip over it a lot of the time.

2. Is washing your makeup brushes something you do regularly?
Not as much as I should, I just wait until I think they need to be cleaned, I clean face brushes a lot more than eye brushes.

3. How long will you last with chipped nail varnish?
Not long, usually until I have time to go over it.

4. How long do you put off buying/replacing a beauty or nail polish product even if you need it (i.e., top coat, foundation and so on)?
I don't really put it off, I usually buy it before I desperately need it.

5. What is your worst beauty habit?
I try and skip out steps in my night/morning routines all the time just because I can't be bothered in the morning and night!

6. Name something non-beauty related that you put off doing all the time.
If I have something in my room that I need to take downstairs like a wrapper then I'll just say to myself I'll take it next time I'm downstairs (sorry if that didn't make sense, it did in my head!)

7. When going out somewhere, do you leave getting ready until last minute?
No, I like to give myself a bit of time!

8. Can you commit to spending bans?
Unless someone takes my money off me then no! I'm like ooh i want that and that! It's so bad!!

9. How organised is your makeup and nail varnish collection?
It's all scattered around my room at the moment.

10. What is the longest time you've gone without writing a blog post?
About 3 days I think.

Thank you for reading! I had fun answering all of these questions so thank you to whoever made it! Sorry I forgot where I got it from! Bye!:)

My Everyday Makeup

Hello, so I've been wanting to do this for a while and I've only just got around to it, I'm going to show you my everyday makeup. I don't wear makeup every single day so I don't put this on all the time but this is for when i do put makeup on.

Here are all of the products that I use; 


And here is me when I have done my makeup!


As you might be able to tell I don't put a lot of like face product on, I like my eyes to be more bold than anything else so I keep my blush/bronzer to a minimum a lot of the time but here are all the products that I use.



Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer (£4.19) http://www.boots.com/en/Collection-2000-Lasting-Perfection-Concealer_984434/

Natural Collection Pressed Powder (£1.99) http://www.boots.com/en/Natural-Collection-Pressed-Powder_24303/


MUA Mosaic Blush in English Rose (£2.50) http://www.muastore.co.uk/index.php/mosaic-blusher-english-rose

Topshop Blush in Prime Time, which unfortunately is no longer available but you can get Afternoon Tea which is very similar (£6) http://www.topshop.com/en/tsuk/product/make-up-431/face-1906567/blush-716/blush-in-afternoon-tea-1855340?refinements=category~%5b211517%7c208568%5d&bi=1&ps=20



Avon Super Curlacious which you would have to order from an avon catalog



Thankyou for reading! I hope this was helpful in some way!

Barry M Gelly Nail Varnish

Hey! So today I'm going to do another review for you. Since it's summer I can paint my nails all the time as my school don't allow it and this means I have really been seeing what different nail varnishes are like.

Recently I have been absolutely loving the Barry M Gelly ones, at the moment I only have four but I really want to build up my collection and get more.


These are the ones like I currently have and from left to right they are; Blackberry, Blood Orange, Papaya and Raspberry.

My favourite one is 'Papaya' it doesn't come out quite the colour as it looks as it comes out a bit more orangey. The reason I love these so much is that first of all they come out a great colour and you only need one or two coats at the most, they are really shiny so they live up to the Hi-Shine name, because of this I never wear a topcoat with them as they don't chip much at all either.

They also have a pretty big colour range and I've not seen a colour that I wouldn't wear! 

You can buy these at boots for only £3.99 but I couldn't see 'Blood Orange' but it just looked the exact same as 'Red' so it's probably just been re-named as that does seem a more suitable name as it isn't orange at all!

I highly recommend these as they are amazing and affordable!

Thankyou for reading!:)

Blog Lovin!

<a href="http://www.bloglovin.com/blog/10087395/?claim=9r585cv65j8">Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>

I've not sorted my blog out on Bloglovin so if you want you can follow me there!:)

Moves App

Hey! Today I'm going to do something a little different and tell you about this app that I have been absolutely loving at the moment! 

The app is called Moves and it basically just tracks your steps but it also can tell how many steps you've took in certain buildings, how long you've ran,cycled, been in transport etc. 

It doesn't seem to do what other things like this does and count false steps as it looks to see if you've been traveling aswell! 

Although this seems a strange thing to recommend it is so good and free! 

You can also link it to certain other apps that count calories etc and together they show how many calories you've burnt and how many you've put on

I don't know if you can get this app on other smartphones but I know you can definitely get it in the Apple Store 



Thankyou for reading:)

August Goals!

Hello everyone! I am really big on like goal setting and deciding long and short term goals, so every month I write down a few things that I want to do that month, nothing is too big but they're all just little things that I think will have a small positive effect on my life, I'm going to go through a few of them now!

I also found this cute picture on Google that I really like!



1. Drink More Water; this always seems to crop up on my little 'goals' I guess you could say, I could go a full day without really drinking anything if I wasn't doing anything too active which obviously isn't great so I really want to drink at least 1L of water per day!

2. Eat Healthier; I am soo bad at this! I can go a few days eating healthy but then I get offered like a McDonalds and I can't refuse! I'm not really concerned for my weight at the moment but it just would be nice if I ate a little healthier.

3. Exercise More; I really want to just go on like jogs sometimes and actually exercise instead of just sitting all day doing nothing! I always want to go jogging but never have anyone who would want to go as much as I do because I wouldn't want to always go alone!

4. Go Out More; Since I've wrote down these goals I've actually started this one quite well even though it's not August yet! I don't just want to stay at home all the time, I want to go out more and actually do something good with my days!

5. Make Memories; This is one that I especially want to do, I just want to remember so many good things when I look back this year, I want there to be so many memories that when I think about the 2013 at the end that I won't immediately think of the bad things, I'll think of the wonderful memories I've made.

So they're just a few of the things that I have set myself to do from August, I hope you found this interesting to find out a bit more about me. Thankyou for reading!

MUA Product Reviews

Hello! Over the last few months I have really been loving the MUA products, which are sold at Superdrug, they sell super affordable, good quality items and I have been buying them a lot over the last few months I have really started to enjoy using them, I decided that I was going to show you all of the MUA products and have and give a short review on them.


First of all I have the MUA Heaven and Earth Eyeshadow palette, this comes with 12 neutral eyeshadows which are all perfect for everyday use, they are pigmented and it only costs £4! You can purchase it here http://www.superdrug.com/mua-professional/make-up-academy-professional-eye-palette-heaven+earth/invt/267771


My next items from the collection are the lipsticks, I have two of these but I want to eventually get a few more, at the moment I have 'Bare' and Shade 13 which doesn't seem to have a name. I swatched them both and as you can see Shade 13 is a bright red and goes on really bright and 'Bare' is a really pretty nude which is perfect for a natural look, the only downside to these is that you have to keep re applying as they fade a bit throughout the day but for only £1 you can't complain! 


My next products are my mosaic bronzer and blush, the bronzer first of all is my favorite! It is perfect for my skin and is so easy to apply, it also has a few golden tones in it which I think look amazing! Mine is in the shade 'Natural Glow' The blush is a really pretty light pink colour, it is perfect for summer time and goes really well with the bronzer, the colour I have is 'English Rose' 
Both of these products are only £2.50 and are good quality!

Another MUA product I have is the Intense Colour Eyeliner. I have this in the shade 'Rich Brown' and I adore it! It looks so natural on and I prefer this for everyday looks rather than wearing a black which I think sometimes looks a bit too harsh on me, at only £1 it definitely should be in everyones makeup bag! Also it comes with a handy sharpener on the lid which is a life saver! 

And lastly I have the Pro Base fixing mist, this was the most recent MUA product I have purchased and with how much I have loved all of my other ones I was expecting amazing things and I was a little let down, It doesn't really seem to do an amazing job on my face makeup but it is still good for eye makeup I find, other people have said that they love it so it could just depends on your skin. It was £5 but I probably won't be buying it again.

Thankyou for reading, I hope you enjoyed!

Cusworth Hall Visit

Hello, so today I'm going to do more of a lifestyle post, earlier today I went to Cusworth Hall with my friend Lois! We spent a few hours there despite not realising the actual hall part doesn't open on Fridays, I took some photos and here they are!


This is the front of the building


A little bridge and the pond


Lilypads that I thought looked super cute!




Just some random plants!



I loved the colour of these! I had to take a photo!


And me and Lois pulling very attractive faces haha!

It was a really nice day out, I think that if you have the chance and you live close you should definitely go but make sure you go on any day but a Friday!


Thankyou for reading!

My Summer Essentials

Today I'm going to show you a few of my summer essentials, I have recently been loving all of these products and they are all affordable and really good!



First of all I have my Schwarzkopf Salt Spray, this adds a lot of texture to my hair and I think stays all day, you only need a few sprays to get a nice effect. I also use this on my hair when I have curled it, along with my normal hairspray as I find that it helps it stay put for longer. You can buy this product from Superdrug for £4.05 http://www.superdrug.com/got2b/beach-matt-texturizing-salt-spray/invt/619363 but if you have a Savers store near you, you can purchase it there for around £2.50 which is where I got mine from but I have only ever seen one Savers store.

My next summer essential is my Palmers Gradual Tan, I hardly ever tan naturally and when I do you can't really notice much of a difference but I find that when I use normal tans I go really orange or patchy. I have been looking to get a gradual tan for a while and then I found this, it looks exactly like a moisturizer and so you can kind of tell where you have put it on, once I had woke up from putting it on the night before you can tell there was a difference but it wasn't too dark, I had no patches and no streaks, after keeping this up for a few days I got a really nice natural looking tan. I highly recommend this product as you can definitely chose whether you want to have a subtle or a noticeable tan, you can buy it from Superdrug here for £3.56 http://www.superdrug.com/gradual-tan/palmers-cocoa-butter-natural-bronze-tan-lotion-250ml/invt/355798 but it is sometimes on offer in Boots.

Next is my Nivea Moisturizer, this is such an amazing moisturizer, it doesn't dry the quickest but it does a really good job, mine has not even got halfway and I have had it since Christmas so it is well worth buying, you can buy it here from Boots for only £4.28 http://www.boots.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?storeId=10052&catalogId=11051&productId=11521&langId=-1&callingViewName&cm_mmc=Paid%20Search-_-Plusbox-_-Link-_-NIVEASoftRefreshinglySoftMoisturisingCream200ml&cm_mmc=bmm-_-google-_-Boots+Beauty-_-Beauty+-+PLAs

Next I have three lip products which I am just going to talk about all together, first is my Revlon Colourburst Lip Butter, I have this in the shade 080 Strawberry Shortcake, this is such a beautiful baby pink colour, it is quite sheer but it looks really pretty on and moisturizer my lips well, I am definitely going to be buying some more shades soon, you can purchase that here for £7.99 http://www.boots.com/en/Revlon-ColorBurst-8482-Lip-Butter_1252852/. Next is my MUA Lipstick, these lipsticks are absolutely amazing and overall the MUA brand is! The shade I am wearing the most at the moment is Shade 14, bare. It is really nice and pigmented, in my opinion it is just as good or even better than some other drugstore lipsticks which charge more, you can buy this at superdrug for an amazing price of £1 http://www.superdrug.com/events-2011/mua-makeup-academy-introducing-our-new-ps1-make-up-range-exclusive/page/muamakeupacademy#lips My final lip product is my Carmex Lip Balm, there isn't really much to say about this except for it's absolutely amazing, it is the best Lip Balm I've tried as I can instantly feel a difference after I've put it on! It isn't expensive either which makes it all the better, you can buy it here for £2.69 http://www.superdrug.com/carmex/carmex-classic-moisturising-lip-balm-10g/invt/725507

Next I have my Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer which I know a lot of people talk about so I won't say too much, it is really good at covering any blemishes or imperfections, it's really cheap and I think worth every penny! I have Shade 1 which is Fair and I love it, you can buy it here for £4.19 http://www.boots.com/en/Collection-2000-Lasting-Perfection-Concealer_984434/

Last of all is my Aussie Leave In Cream, since its summer and my hair has to deal with a lot of heat this has really helped my hair and made it not completely die! I just apply it to the ends of my hair and I feel as thought it really does help, as well as fixing your hair from heat damage it also is a heat defense. This is definitely something I would recommend to anyone who has damaged hair from heat, I couldn't find the link for this but I know you can buy it from Boots and Superdrug.

I hope I haven't bored you, thankyou for reading!!:-)

Topshop Cream Blush in 'Prime Time'

Today I'm going to review the Topshop cream blush, I have the shade 'Prime Time' and I use it quite a lot!

This at the moment is my go to blush, its really simple to apply and comes out a lovely colour.
'Prime Time' is a bright pink but does not at all come out as bright as it looks! At first I was a bit scared to use it but then realised it's nothing to be scared of using.


A little bit does really go a long way so after using this nearly every time I have put my makeup on for the last few months hardly any has been used!
The packaging is really cute and instantly drew me in.

Another thing I especially love about this product is that you can make it as bright or a subtle as you want, I usually rub it in quite a lot to give just a nice touch to my face but as you can see down below it is really buildable and can become a bright pink like the product looks.


Unfortunately I couldn't find this product online but you should be able to buy it in most Topshop stores but the shade 'Afternoon Tea' is very similar and can be bought here for £6 http://www.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?searchTerm=blush&storeId=12556&productId=10108640&urlRequestType=Base&categoryId=&langId=-1&productIdentifier=product&catalogId=33057 

Thankyou for reading, hope you enjoyed!

Real Techniques Brushes Review

So today I'm going to do my first ever review! I'm a little nervous about it but oh well, it's going to be of the real techniques brushes in the core set. They are £21.99 and in my opinion definitely worth it!


I mainly use the buffing and the contouring brush and the contouring brush and I haven't yet found a permanent use for the other two (by the way in the set there is also a small detailer brush but mine is broke so I'll insert a different photo of that sorry!)



The buffing brush is really good for applying foundation, I find it gives a better finish and blends it a lot better! If I'm wanting a fuller coverage then I will dab my foundation on with it but if I'm not too fussed then I will brush it all over if that even makes sense!

I use the contouring brush for my creme blush as I find this is the best way to apply it as it doesn't get everywhere like everything else I have tried! I've also used this brush for applying concealer and it's give it a great finish and blends it well!

As for the detailer and the pointed foundation brush I haven't decided what I ultimately want to use these for but at the moment I am using the pointed foundation brush for highlighter and it's doing a good job and so I might keep this up but I don't have a use for the detailer brush.

I highly recommend these brushes they are amazing quality and do the job well!



Thankyou for reading, I hope I didn't bore you, bye!

Getting to know me tag

Hello, welcome to my blog everyone!:)

I've been wanting to start a blog for a while and now I've decided I'm going to finally do it!

To start off I'm going to do a 'Getting to know me tag' with some I've found.

1. Date of Birth

09.07.1998, which makes me 15

2. Were you named after anyone?

My mum always liked the name Rebecca but wanted it to be a little different and her favourite TV show had a character called Rebekah in and so that's where my name came from!

3. Do you do your face or eyes first?

I want to get out of the habit but I do my face first.

4. Do you buy makeup when you need them or do you collect?

It depends, with foundations, powders and bronzers I buy them when I need them but with lipsticks, eyeshadows, mascaras and blush I collect them.

5. Would you leave the house without makeup?

Yeah! I like to go natural quite a lot actually when I'm not doing anything too fancy

6.  What is your hair colour?

I currently have brown hair, which I'm a bit bored of now and so I'm thinking of dying it red!

7. Do you plan your outfits the night before or decide when getting ready?

Unless I'm going somewhere fancy I decide when getting ready.

8. Do you prefer bold eyes or bold lips?

Lips, I find that I'm more comfortable with bold lips but I want to start going bold with my eyes.

9. Describe yourself in 3 words

Bubbly, loving and girly

10. What are you listening to right now?

One Direction - One Thing

I hope you found this at least slightly interesting, thankyou for reading!
