My Perfect Base Makeup Right Now!

Hello Everyone,
Today's post is going to be based on my current favourite base makeup combo, from foundation to setting spray and my favourite ways of applying. Lets go!


 For Foundation and concealer the Rimmel match perfection has been my holy grail for some time now, it gives a gorgeous dewy finish and is a medium coverage however is easily buildable without looking cakey. I use the shade 100 ivory and it is the second lightest shade in the range, in winter i find myself always needing the light porcelain shade which is the lightest they do but every time i look it is never available :( so instead i find myself  really having to blend it out or mixing it with a lighter shade from another brand but the extra effort doesn't bother me as the staying power and application is so amazing with this foundation. Recently i picked up the matching concealer and it works just as good, it is a lot more brightening and is great for under the eyes and to highlight with, to apply i use my ring finger and lightly dab it into the skin as it gives a natural look because the warmth of your fingers help blend it in beautifully.


For powder i have been using the Rimmel stay matte powder in transparent, it is perfect for those occasional areas that get a little shiny. I've been as much into contouring as i am usually but i have changed pallets recently, this sleek contour pallet in light is perfect and has just the right colour pay off, the highlighter is also gorgeous. The Rimmel lasting finish soft colour blush in pink rose is my perfect shade for this time of year and looks great with a peachy pink lip.


I recently picked up this MUA Setting spray as i have been dying to try one lately as my makeup hasn't been lasting and has been sinking into fine lines, oh em gee it was a good idea,i use 2-4 sprays after i have applied all my makeup and fan it dry with a card and it sticks to my face all day long with no creasing! Huge recommendation if you are facing the same problems i was.

Hope you enjoyed this post

Back to School & Feeling Motivated!

Hello Everyone,
Whether its the new year that has put me in this mindset or the shock that we leave school in 135 days, i have recently been feeling very motivated and ready for any challenges in the way of me doing what i need to do, to do the career i want to pursue.


I have got super organised this year and i think it has really helped my mind become clear and positive especially in the education department, i have cleared out everything i don't need and making sure i do all the work i need to do to get the grades i want.

Big Lush Haul

Hello Everyone,
I have recently gathered a huge amount of lush products, some coming as gifts at Christmas, some purchased with gift cards and some brought in the huge lush sale on boxing day so as i hadn't done one in quite a while i thought i would share all my goodies with you...

Bath Bombs
If you aren't familiar with lush, the bath bombs are the products you put into a bath and they fizz and leave behind usually a beautiful colour and scent, sometimes they have glitter or stars and they have essential oils inside that help made the skin feel hydrated and moisturised.

The two Santa's are called dashing Santa's, they have a citrus scent however i do not yet know what they leave behind in the bath water as this is the first time i have purchased them.

The white bear is a butter bear, a Christmas edition of the classic butterball in lush, this is one of the most skin benefiting bath bombs i have tried from lush and also has a sweet vanilla scent.

The two gold presents at the back are golden wonders and leave behind a completely different colour than you think they would, they also have a sweet floral scent.

The last bath bomb is one i have never tried before, it is the luxury lush pud and is a bright highlighter pink colour at the base with pockets of other bright colours inside which i presume burst open when it starts fizzing away.

Bath melt
The bath melts give a more moisturised and soft feel to the water and this one is called snow angel and is described as an 'heavenly moisturiser' and has an entire base full of gold glitter. I am very excited to give this one a whirl.

Bubble bars
I got four bubble bars the comforter, the Christmas penguin, the candy mountain and the Christmas hedgehog. With the bubble bars you crumble them under warm water and they leave huge amounts of bubbles, a wonderful colour and a heavenly scent. These can last up to 8 baths depending on the size as only a small amount needs to be crumbled off each time.
Soap
Something lush are very well known for is the huge circle slabs of soaps, this is the rock star soap, although they are famous for their soaps i have never tried them so can not report on these however i am sure they are lovely.
Shower gels
The shower gels are especially popular at Christmas time as snow fairy comes out which is a cult classic and everyone goes mad for it. This year i also picked up the so white shower gel which smells like apples and is so fresh and uplifting.

I hope you enjoyed and i have convinced you to go and have a relaxing bath hehe!
