My Trusty Makeup Products

Hello My Lovelies!

Today I wanted to share with you my trusty makeup favourites, e.i. The stuff I can't live without.

I could not live without mascara, so finding a really good one is high up on my list of priorities. I have finally purchased this Maybelline "Lash Sensational Lash Multiplying Mascara" and it was well worth the £7.99. 

 My favourite foundation in the world is the No.7 "Essential Natural Foundation". I have this in the lightest shade, and life was made so much easier by the colour match they do! I believe this foundation is one up from a BB cream and has a really natural, dewy finish. It is currently on offer for £9.95.

My trusty concealer is great for wakening up my eyes! Again coming from No.7, this is the "Instant Radiance" concealer and I think this is a good dupe for the YSL concealer. RRP; £13.50

To apply my foundation, I use this brush from The Body Shop. I'm not sure of the name or price of this brush, but it works a treat! 

Using the Real Techniques "Buffing Brush" I literally buff my face which makes my foundation look even more natural! This brush comes in a set of four, and I got the whole set for £11 on offer in Boots!

Finally, from Real Techniques, these two Duo Fibre brushes are my life. I love the eye brush and contour brush. They pick up loads of colour and are super soft.

Autumn

Apparently Autumn starts on September the 22nd every year, but to me it's Autumn now. It sounds cliche but I actually love all the seasons for different reasons.

Things I love about Autumn;

•Snuggling up under cosy blankets, especially when it's raining/cold outside

•Collecting Conkers and then having little conker fights at my Grandparents 

•Wearing warm, oversized jumpers

•Scarfs, Hats and Boots

•Darker, colder nights - which mean more baths and hot chocolate! 

•Making huge piles of Autumn leaves and then jumping in them 

•Burning candles whilst watching films

•Halloween, I absolutely love Halloween, from hollowing out pumpkins to dressing up and eating endless amounts of sweets! 

•Bonfire Night, when I'm all snuggled up and watch fireworks from the window with my sister, or eating toffee apples and writing my name with sparklers in the air! 

•Looking forward to Christmas, and getting into that Christmas spirit!! 

•And finally, getting excited for those snow days! This years Summer was rubbish weather in the UK, and that only means one thing... A good Winter!

Lip Products

Hello Everybody!
If you are like me, and get dry lips whenever the seasons change, then I'm sure you will appreciate how I keep my lips moisturised and protected! 

I use the Lush Lip Scrub to remove all that dead skin-it's like an exfoliator for lips. I have the two flavours "Bubblegum" and "Popcorn" and my favourite part is eating all the sugar afterwards! Then I follow through with a moisturising lip balm. These cost £5.50 each. 

 One of my favourite lip balms is the Body Shop "Solid Oil Lips" which costs £4. As you can see this lip balm is very well loved and comes in the scent "Wild Argan Oil". This was definitely the most moisturising out of all the lip balms I have tried in my life, and created a smooth finish on your lips, perfect for if you want to wear a lipstick and your lips are dry. I can't believe I have already run out of this! 

The Lush lip balms are definitely work looking at! They are moisurising and all natural ingredients, with great 'flavours' to choose from. My two absolute favourites are "Honey Trap" and "Whip Stick" but a nice one for summer is the "None Of Your Beeswax", as it has slight citrucy scent. They are all suitable for Vegetarians but the only Vegan friendly one is "None Of Your Beeswax". These are priced at £5.75 each. The only thing that is disappointing is the packaging.... It's so hard to open!
