What I'm wearing on my face! #3


I'm really not photogenic!




Today I'm wearing No7 stay perfect foundation in the shade calico with rimmel's stay matter pressed powder over the top and MUA's bittersweet cream blush on my cheeks. On my eyes I have a NYX jumbo eye pencil in the shade french fries, L'oreal telescopic mascara and collection 2000 liquid eyeliner. For eyeshadow I used my naked 2 palette and I used the shades foxy, bootcall, snakebite and suspect! On the lips I lightly pressed on revlon's kissable balm stain in honey.

NYX Makeup Review



Sometime back in February I went to the beauty expo in London, it was amazing as there was so many beauty brands and a lot of things were at discount prices! One of the brands there was NYX, I was super happy they were there as the only way of buying them in the UK is ordering online and I hate ordering makeup when I can't see what it looks like up close. I got a cream blusher, cream eyeshadow and lipliner. 

Cream blusher- This is my favourite product from the bunch, it blends flawlessly into the skin and makes your cheeks look really dewy. The colour of this product is 'Glow' and it is a medium pink, I think this colour would suit most skin tones so it's very versatile! £5.50

Jumbo eye pencil- This is a cream eyeshadow in the shade 'French fries'. These also blend really nicely into the skin but I would recommend using an eyeshadow base underneath or using these as a base themselves as they do crease really easily. It is a gorgeous bronze colour with gold shimmer running through it and looks lovely used as a base in a brown smokey eye. £4.50

Lip pencil- This is my least favourite of everything I got. It tugs at the lips when applied and the colour is this weird metallic nude and looks horrible on my lips! The only thing I have found it good for is using underneath a nude lipstick to help it stay longer. £4.00

Here I have lightly applied the products, I like to wear the blusher quite natural.

See how metallic it is! 

Much better with a nude lipstick over the top!

What i'm wearing on my face! #1

So for the past week I have been glued to the sofa battling my death, okay maybe not that extreme but I have been pretty ill. Today I am feeling a lot better and started playing around with my makeup a little bit. As summer is coming up (hardly with this awful weather in the UK!) I fancied doing a bronze eye.



These are just a few of the bits I used on my face today-
NYX cream blush- Glow
Mua eyeshadow palette- Undresssed
No7 stay perfect foundation- Calicio
Avon lipstick- Shade has rubbed off but its a lovely soft pink with gold shimmer running through it.

Thank you reading!
