Beauty Haul

Thursday 26 February 2015

Hello everybody! So over the last month I have brought quite a lot of beauty products and I decided to show some of the products I have purchased! I would just like to say I am not trying to brag in anyway at all its just clearly for your guys to see some of the products I have recently purchased. With all that in mind let's get started!

 



Okay, so the first product I am going to talk about is the Real Techniques powder brush. I have to say, this brush is massive so is great for powdering and I sometimes use it to bronze my face up a bit! I really do love the Real Techniques brushes because the are super soft and aren't rough on your skin. This cost me £10.99 from Superdrug which I would say is a reasonably size, and I will leave a link to all the products mentioned in my blog at the end.





Next I finally purchased the Nars sheer glow foundation and I got it in the shade 'Light 1' Siberia, which is the lightest shade they do. It is slightly yellow on my skin but once I have set it in place with some powder it looks fine. This is now got to be my holy grail foundation, It's amazing! It makes your skin look healthy and you can't see the foundation at all. This cost me £31 which is quite pricey but is definitely worth the money. I purchased this from Space NK, where I got it tested on my skin to check it was the right colour. Sadly this doesn't come with a pump but you can order them online as well as get them in the store.





My next product I purchased is also from Nars and it is the Press powder which I got in the shade 'Flesh'. This feels really light so aren't too heavy on your skin and it helps the foundation stay matte and in place for the whole day, especially if you have oily skin. I also got this tested on my skin so I got the correct colour, which I will always suggest when buying an expensive foundation or concealer or powder. Again I brought this from Space NK and I have to say I am in love with all the Nars packaging!





Again I got another Nars product which is the Radiant Creamy Concealer and I brought this in the shade 'Chantilly'. This is very creamy hence the name and also feels very light and not too heavy like other concealers I have tried in the past. Like the other two I got this tested on my skin again and is the perfect colour. As well as having good coverage it also brightens my under eyes which makes me look more awake.

 



And finally I got the new Maybelline mascara, which is called 'Lash Sensational' and it says that it will make your eyelashes look more visibly multiplied and fuller which I definitely think it does. It makes my lashes look really separated and bold! This mascara is quite new and I have heard lots of youtubers talk about like Gabby also known as Gabriella. I got this in the colour 'Black' and brought it from Superdrug as usual for £7.99.

And that's all these are a few of the recent beauty product I have brought and I hope you enjoyed my blog!

Winter Look

Thursday 12 February 2015

Hello everyone! Today I have got my final winter themed blog for you and it is going to be about Fashion! Now that the weather is quite colder, I Have put together one of my everyday winter looks. The good point about this look and any type of outfit is that you can always stay warm while looking stylish at the same time!



My first item of clothing is my Parker Coat which is from Topshop. I brought this last year, so unfortunately this is not sold any more but there are many of new coats available to be purchased in topshop. Inside the coat there is a warm fur lining with a mega fluffy hood! This is one of my favourite coats I have purchased and goes nicely with my boots.



 
The next item in my look is my 'Pull and Bear' sweat shirt, which has burgundy writing and has a flowery pattern on it. It is nice and soft so you won't get cold wearing it! This sweat-shirt can be purchased, with a range of others, from the 'Pull and Bear' website or in the store. You can buy this sweatshirt here.



 
Finally I am wearing plain black leggings which contrasts well with the jumper and coat. I am also wearing my plain black suede 'Dr martens'. Inside they are fur lined, to keep your feet warm on cold walks! I purchased these boots from newlook. These boots are flat with chunky souls and are lace up at the front. They are also very comfortable to wear.


I hope you enjoyed this post and don't forget to share this with your friends and next I will be posting a beauty blog!
