A Little Something Extra

So if you’re a reader of my blog I often only mention high-end products. The only reason I can justify this is that I only really buy makeup online. I live in a town in Wales where the only store with any real selection of makeup is Boots, and it's not a really big store either. So the selection of makeup I have at my disposal in person is quite limited. If I am going to buy drugstore makeup, ill make an online boots order as its free delivery if you collect in store. Something that I always have in my personal makeup bag, and probably something ill buy for my freelancing kit (let me know if you want a blog post on this) is the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. I have been using this concealer for years and it's my go to if I need to cover blemishes as well as dark circles. The only downsize to this product is the shade range. It only comes in 4 shades and they only range to fair-medium-ish. However the pros far out-way the negatives as its only £4.99 and th...

This may be my biggest sephora haul to date however I am going away to visit a friend in London next month so I wanted to pick up some limited edition make up that I wanted before I start saving up my pennies when I go to the big city.

This highlight is more of a golden shade, more gold than moonstone and would probably be a close call to opal even though I do not own this shade. As I said I will let you guys know more of my thoughts on the feature blog post about this palette. The next big palette that is everywhere at the moment that i got was the Anastasia ...

This foundation has been the best thing to happen to the highstreet since contour compacts and highlighting palettes. Cushion foundations have been a thing within asian beauty for a while and it has slowly been creeping up to the west beauty scene. I first time I heard about an easy accessible cushion foundation was the Lancôme Miracle Cushion Fluid Foundation which actually has the shame amount of product (14g) as the L'Oreal however its twice the price (obviously). This range currently has 7 shades of poor choice, as they only range from very light to light medium. Great news for the pale people however not so great for those who are medium to deep skin tones. This is where the Lancôme Cushion Foundation wins as they do have a variety from light to deep shades. I got the lightest shade just to be on the safe side and that 01 Porcelain which is usually the shade name for the lightest shade that a lot of companies make, and I have to say its a pretty good match for me. ...
