A Little Something Extra

So as I am writing this post, I officially have 9 days until I am going to Paris! To some people it might not sound like a big deal, however, I have been wanting to go to Paris forever since I love art so much, plus the fact I haven't really been anywhere outside the country in 3 years. I am so excited I cannot even explain. Most people when they go on holiday wonder about which kind of clothes and shoes they will take, but I have been wondering ever since the trip has been booked is what makeup I should take. I am very much hoping that it will be much sunnier in Paris compared to Wales when we go, so I bought a foundation from a brand that I've always wanted to try. I got the It Cosmetics Your Skin But Better Full Coverage CC Cream in the shade Fair. I am subscribed to Lilly Pebbles on Youtube and her friend Anna from the channel The Anna Edit, and they talked about this foundation a lot. It also contains spf50 so it's going to be great if the sun decides to come out....

I feel like everyone owns this palette, and for those who don't, need it!  When I first received this palette my first impressions were O.M.G.  To get the boring bit out of the way, the packaging is super slim. Its made of cardboard which means its slim and lightweight so this would be a great palette to travel with. However I would never see myself traveling with this as cardboard isn’t solid enough in my mind to protect the product inside, unless I would be super careful in packing with it. You have the top row which is all matte and then the bottom row which are a mix of satins and metallic. The mates are really wonderful and the quality really doesn’t compare to the many other palettes that I own. I have allot of shadows from Urban Decay and the mattes in these palettes compared to these seem chalky. the shimmers, which are super buttery as well, have a lot of fall out. This even happens with the mattes. This is why I would never travel with it as I can...
