Boots Haul and First Impressions of Products

So i took a trip to town the other day and picked up a few things from boots as there was a 3 for 2 offer on. I thought instead of doing the normal haul so actually give you my first impression of all the products i brought.

Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum - I found the colour that suits my skin perfectly which is very hard to find cause i have fair skin so i was very happy about that . This is renown for being a dupe of the Chanel vitalumiere aqua , this is looks very smooth on the skin and gives a beautiful glow without being too cakey.

Bourjois Colour Boost Lipstick in Peach on the beach- I love the colour on my fair skin , goes on so smooth onto my lips and its got a beautiful glossy sheen on my lips. Zoella recommended this lipstick so i had to pick it up in the offer.

Bourjois Bronzing Powder - It renown for its luscious smell of chocolate , i must say that the product is very lovely its easy to use for a beginner you can build the colour up for a contour.

Maybelline Fit Me Powder - My very first impression was how soft to touch and takes away the shine , i had run out of my Maybelline dream matte powder so i thought i should try a different powder. So far i like my fit me powder more as it is more smooth and less cakey.

Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream (2% Salicylic acid for oily skin) - I picked up this BB cream instead of the normal BB cream because i have been breaking out lately and thought it might treat my spots will giving a bit of coverage. Its a perfect light colour for my skin and gives a very smooth finish.

Maybelline The Eraser Concealer - Its a nice concealer for the under eyes , although it is a anti age concealer i heard it was great for the under eyes , so i have been using it in my daily routine . I am not liking the sponge applicator because i think it is very unhygienic so i completely torn it off.

I hope you liked my post , please comment so i can talk.

Benefit Magic Ink Jet-Black Liquid Eyeliner Review

So i have been working a lot so i have not been blogging much however this is my new favorite eyeliner so i thought i might review it for you. I sometimes find it very hard to do my eyeliner as i have quite shaky hands , it means i find it hard to create a good cat eye without messing up . However this eyeliner blush is very thin and easy to use , i have to admit that sometimes there will be the odd mistake here and there but that is normal. I wore this eyeliner to work today and it did not smudge or come off the whole day , the staying power impressed me so much. The pot of liquid eyeliner looks very small compared to normal eyeliners in my opinion as it is £15.50 , however if you want an eyeliner that stays put then this is the one for you.

I would want the packaging to be better such as i like liquid eyeliners that are in the pen design as i find them easier to use , wear as you have to keep dipping the brush in the pot. The colour is very dark black which although you might think yeah of course its a dark black cause of the name , however i say this because i have had eyeliners that have been grey when they say the colour is black.

Overall 

Brand: Benefit

Price: £15.50

Amount of product: 2.5

Pro's: I seem to be able to create a 'straighter' line with this one than with others , and i don't make as many mistakes due to the small tip.Wears well and doesn't fade throughout the day which is good if you need to go out or to work.

Con's: I don't like the packaging and i believe that there isn't much amount of product for the price , you could get a cheaper eyeliner that has more product however this is a very good eyeliner.

Overall rating : 5*

I hope you enjoyed my blog and if you know a really good eyeliner please comment

My Daily Make up Routine

I hope you enjoy my everyday make up routine, this will change depending on if I am going to school and my mood if I am honest as some days I like wearing a bold lip.

1. Benefit The POREfessional - I will put this on my face if I want my foundation to last all day, it just feel lovely on your skin and minimize your pores however I wouldn't purchase this again because there are better primers out their for cheaper prices. This primer costs £24.50 which is a bit steep for a primer, benefit says that you could apply under or over makeup but I don't think you could apply this really over make up.
2. MAC Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 in NW15 - This is a lovely full coverage foundation which I will wear if I need more coverage like going out, but it does clog your pores so I can't wear it everyday. The only downside of my foundation is that it is quite orange on my fair skin even, this is £21.50 which although is expensive it will last you ages. 
3. MAC Select Cover up - I love this concealer because when you put it on it covers what you want without looking like you have it on. Although this is £15.00 its a good concealer but I probably will try cheaper concealer to test them out such as the Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. 
4. Benefit High Beam - This is a very easy to use pretty highlight, the colour is perfect for my skin cause it looks beautiful without people going 'omg your wearing highlighter', its £19.50 for a massive but with most products I would say always get a sample before hand a try it out before you pay a lot for the product. 
5. MAC Fleur Powder Satin Powder Blush - I will use a stippling blush to apply this to the colour looks natural on my fair skin, its easy to blend and looks beautiful. Its £18.00 although its quite an average colour, its perfect for fair skin people.
6. Maybelline dream matte powder - This powder is a great product to have as a setting powder, I like that is takes all the shine away because I hate a shiny face after apply make up. This price in America is $8.23 which i think is a great price.
7. Urban Decay Naked 2 palette - I use Foxy all over my lid and then Tease in my crease for a natural look, the eye shadows are silky and easy to blend. It's £36.00 but well worth your money.
8. Loreal Paris Volume Million Lashes Mascara - One of my favourite mascara that make my eyelashes look lengthen and just  lovely. It sells for £10.99, but you have to try it cause its a must product.
9. Barry M Kohl Pencil - For years I have used this eyeliner in my water line, it's very pigmented , smooth and just defines my eyes beautifully, and for only £2.99.
10. Clarins Rouge Eclat in Nude Rose - I normally don't wear nude lipsticks until I wore this, it's your lips but better lipstick. I think £18.50 is steep but it is naturally beautiful and i love it for everyday simple make up.

I hope you like my blog post :)

First Impression of Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream

I got this product a few days a go and I wanted to write my first impression of the product. The product says it has 8 benefits in 1; Creates a natural glow, compliments skin tone, SPF 30, Hydrates all day, Blurs imperfections, oil free, looks visibly smooth and feels fresh. When applying the BB cream it felt very smooth to put on, I would recommend that when applying you use your fingers but the brush would pick up a lot of the product. After applying I did see that the BB cream looked very greasy on my skin, so I used a powder to take down the shine. I think the great thing about this product is that it was the same colour as my skin and complimented it very well, which is pretty hard because I have quite fair skin so I find most foundations and BB creams can be too orange for my skin.

I would say that it makes my skin look smooth and as I have some acne its nice for it to make that look smooth, but however it did not really blur my imperfections so if wearing this in the day I would wear concealer with it. I believe that the product only provides 4 out of the 8 benefits it promises which are that it creates a natural glow, compliments skin tone, SPF 30 and looks visibly smooth.

Overall 

Brand: Maybelline

Price: £7.99

Amount of product: 30ml

Pro's: This product just suit the colour of my skin very well instead of being too orange like other drugstore brands, it just give me a natural glow and smooths out my skin nicely. The product is very cheap considering the amount you get.

Con's: It does not blur imperfections as my acne was still showing and as soon as I put the product on it looked very greasy so you would have to wear a powder with the product. Another con would be that the product doesn't sell a wide range of colours, although my colour suited me, there aren't many darker shades.

Overall rating : 3.5*

I hope you enjoyed my review
