makeup forever face and body foundation

Recently I have been  using lighter foundation . I feel like n the summer having a lighter foundation is great because it doesn't feel like your wearing any at all . I have been loving the makeup forever face and body foundation . The coverage is light when applying with a brush I use the crown  super foundation brush .  If you want to have  medium coverage I recommend that you use your fingers . This foundation is water based and therefore is not drying on the skin . The finish of it is very dewy and I love this . I have the shade 5 and its a perfect match .  Although its dewy it last all day even on my oilier patches .This is my summer foundation of choice at this moment and I will be purchasing another after this is  done with for sure .
You can purchase this foundation from guru makeup emporium  and it retails for £29.95

Benefit they're real push - up liner + a drugstore dupe

I have been looking forward for the benefit release  for a while . Mainly because I am hopeless when it comes to eyeliner application . This claims to be a lash hugging liner and I do feel that it comes up to its expectations . The application is close to the lashes and its easy  to apply .I think that this is because of the nip .This nip also makes making winged liner so easy . I have been struggling with winged liner  forever every time I cant go out of the house because it looks dodgy but with this I am able to have a perfect wing that I'm happy with .  Its the blackest black and it's last a very long time .The RRP of this liner is £18.50

There is also a dupe for this liner by Maybelline . The liner is the lasting drama one and I comes in black  the application of this eyeliner is near enough identical to the benefit one . I would say that this  one is slightly thinner line . The biggest difference between both liners is that the Maybelline one doesn't have the same staying power . The price of this one is £8.99 but on a moment it on offer in Superdrug for £6.99 .

Glamglow Youthmud

I have been  loving face masks recently .I have heard so much about Glamglow . I was in London recently and I decided to splurge out and finally buy it . I bought the 15ml jar which is tiny and costs  £25 but I have used it twice and there is half of it left . There is also a 50ml jar and that retails at £50

When you first apply you will notice leafs in the mask that is the green  tea leaf and it realising its goodness into the mask  . It has a very fresh scent  and its pleasant .  The tingling sensation it gives in the first 5 minute or so isn't  too much but you do notice it . I kept  it on for 15 minutes and by this time the mask had dried completely .

 I used warm water and a muslin cloth to remove the mask in circular motions and I felt this very exfoliating.  The first thing I notice after removal was how soft my skin felt . My skin was glowing and soft and  my large pores around my nose was notable smaller . This was truly a miracle mask . I am so pleased with it that I am  going to buy the full size now before this one runs out . Truly  worth the price tag .

Nail Miracle Cure - Sally Hansen

At Christmas I had a  gel nail varnish done professional . I loved them but when it was time to take them off I decided to do them at home using acetone formula nail varnish remover at first I put them in a pot of nail varnish remover for about 10 minutes each but only the glitter would come off so I had to do the process again and  use a nail file to get rid of the black  that was the base of my Christmas nails.

After a lot of harsh treatment my nails was left in bad condition they were peeling a lot  and  chipping  easily . Not what I want because all my life I been blessed with strong nails I started to panic that I had ruined my nails forever. I then  started a rutine using hardners  this did  improve a little on the condition of my nails but did nothing to the peeleing. And this were this little gem came in.

I loved sally Hansen nailvarnishes for a long time but never used there treatment but this one has made one happy girl . I use it under my nail polish every 2 days for the first week  but then I started to slack a little so I was so surprise to se in a couple of weeks my nails was strong and the peeling stopped completely.  Best  £9.99  that I have ever spend. It was truly a miracle !

you can pick it up at boots  and earn point at the same time or even use up those point you got http://www.boots.com/en/Sally-Hansen-Miracle-Cure_45924/

Schwarzkopf - got2b

This schwarzkof got2b range has been out some time by now  . They have added some new products to their line and I have rediscovered the items of their range I had all ready in my stash of products .
The first product that I am going to mention is the  got2b guardian angel heat protection . This is a heat protection especially designed for blow drying and straitening your hair . I feel that many heat protection that  I have tried in the past comes out of the spray in one squirt as with this it a light mist . It smells amazing too .

The second product  from the got2b range is beach matt texturizing salt spray . This also smells diving and have the same light mist spray as the guardian angel .It is amazing product if like me you have curly hair that needs some definition and less frizz . This spray does the job perfectly my curls are defined and it is also good for your hair that you aren't using heat to create this look.

The got2b oil-licious is an amazing product as well . It has argan oil in it and it makes my hair have a natural shine to it . I like to use this product when my hair is slightly damp . You can use this for daily use if you feel like you need it as it is such a light formula .

Thee last product from this range that I own is  beach matt matt paste . This is a product I don't use as much of . I use it when I need a sleek look . This makes sure that all the small flyways stays in place. Its also a product that smells amazing .All of theses products are available at Superdrug for £3.00 but its currently on offer for £1.98 :D

notd

I have recently got back into painting my nails .  I work in a bakery and wearing bright nail varnish  isn't appropriate . But as it is bank holyday weekend I have two days off and I decided to go for this lovely dark navy shade .  Its by Deborah Lippmann and the colour is lady sings the blues .It has small blue glitter and larger chunks of silver glitter . This retails for £18 and can be found at lookfantastic site .
 Because I have been painting my nails more frequently I have also been using more acetone which isn't  kind to my nails . I have seen the effect of this as my nails get a little bit more fragile . To combat this I used hard rock nail strengthening base and top coat . I hope this helps with the issue I have .

Estee Lauder- Double Wear Foundation

I have been hearing lot and lot about this foundation over the years that I have been watching YouTube videos so when I had some vouchers Christmas I knew what I wanted. In march of this year I bought it and I got the colour ivory nude that is a very close match to my skin but in my opinion a little bit too yellow. This isn't  noticeable with my powder on top .

To this exception this foundation is one of the best I have tried as yet . My skin type is normal combination . This is a medium to full coverage as it can be built up to the coverage you want . It is very long lasting even on my t zone where I tend to go a little oily from time to time  . So this is an ideal choice if I am about to have a long day at work .

I  use this with either my  fingers for a slightly lighter coverage or a real techniques expert face brush if I feel that I need that extra coverage . Both application is good and it doesn't cling to any patches that I might have .

It is one of the most expensive foundations that I have purchased so far and I would say that it is also the best and would recommend it to anyone . One thing that could be improved is that the bottle would have a pump as I put to much on sometimes .

£28.50 - 100ml available at Debenhams
