I have never done a blog post like this, mainly because I’ve always struggled with foundations. So I thought I would share the high end and drugstore foundations I like to use! Before we get into the foundations I like to use, I’ll disclaim that my skin is combination with dry areas on cheeks and oiliness on my t-zone. My skin tone is neutral and I don’t like dewy/glowy foundations.

Last year I wanted to add more colourful palettes into my collection. I had seen Certifeye all over social media, I had bought The Tropical Wonders palette and loved it, you can check out the review here. So it made sense to try another of their palettes.

Not long ago Urban Decay added onto the Heavy Metal Collection with glitter gels, glitter pencil eyeliners and more shades of their glitter liners. I was lucky enough to win a competition where I won the new collection! I love the Urban Decay glitter liners, they make any makeup look really pop! So I was super excited to try their glitter pencil liners and glitter gels.

Within the beauty community there are a handful of powders that are cult favourites, with many others being left in their shadow. A little while ago I was looking for a pressed powder, as I am far too clumsy to always be using a loose powder. So on a trip to Debenhams I decided to try one from Urban Decay, out of all the Urban Decay products I’ve tried there aren’t many I don’t like.

Drugstore foundations can be hit or miss, sometimes the shade range isn’t great or they oxidise. But very rarely have NYX been a miss for me, so when they launched the Can’t Stop Won’t Stop foundation last year, with the matte formula I knew it would be up my street.

No matter what the price, you either love a product or can live without it. When it comes to the drugstore makeup, it’s no secret that there can be some absolute gems on the shelves. Beating their high end counterpart. So after reorganising my collection again, I thought I would share a few products I can’t live without!
A little while ago I posted a comparison review of the NYX Matte Liquid Liner vs Kat Von D Tattoo Liner, which you guys really enjoyed. So as I was still on the hunt for a new holy grail eyeliner to replace the Tattoo Liner I decided to try the NYX Epic Ink liner as I had also seen really good reviews about this drugstore liner and it had also been compared to Tattoo Liner.

Hello everyone! I hope you are all smashing your week! I have had the Becca Aqua Luminous Concealer for a while and had been meaning to write this post fo a while. For a while I was on the hunt for a high end concealer, I wanted to treat myself and whilst I was in Edinburgh last summer I finally found one that matched my skin tone, you can see what other goodies I got here. As someone who has a pale complexion with a neutral undertone, it can be difficult to find a pale concealer that isn’t yellow or pink toned. Many high end brands seem to do two pale concealers – one with a yellow undertone and the other pink. Or that are just look orange on me. So when Becca’s Aqua Luminous was a match I knew it was meant to be.

Ignoring the fact that I am constantly late to beauty band wagon, a while ago I bought the NYX Tame and Frame Brow Pomade as I figured it was about time I jumped on the pomade hype. I always thought that brow pomades would make my beauty routine longer, plus I wasn’t sure if I would like how a pomade would look on my brows compared to pencils. But there was only one way to find out!
