My second favourite time of year is upon us – Halloween!
I love dressing up and going all out. Since I started youtube I have done a few halloween looks every year. I put together a playlist of all the looks I’ve done over the years in this fancy playlist for you. to watch them all you have to do it —>Click Me<—
For my first look of 2015 I came up with this witch like masquerade mask. As promised in the video, this is the place for a list of the exact products I used. Most of these are staples and you’ll see me use them often in my videos. [Read more…]
Drugstore Foundation Review
Lately I’ve been experimenting with foundation.
I’ve got acne and scarring thanks to some wonderful genetics (insert thumbs up here ), which I’m very self conscious about.
I’m always on the hunt for a foundation that will blend well, not too greesy, mask most of my smaller Problem areas and that will last a long time. These last few months I have been on kind of a frenzy and have tried 5 different drugstore foundations.
I have filmed a review video describing the pro’s and con’s of each.
What foundations do you use? Do you have a Fave or hated foundation? Let me know!
April Fails and Favourites
This month I got to try a lot of different products. I had lots of new stuff to try and test out. I had some things I loved and some things I just did not like.
For My Favourite Here is my list:
E.L.F Mineral Eyeshadow in Lunch Break
E.L.F Mineral Eyeshadow in Beauty Queen
I like both of these colours because they are neutral and great for a subtle looks. I tend to wear subtle neutrals most often and I really like how warm and mild the colours are.
NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Milk
I like this as an eyeshadow base. I’ve been skipping my primer and going straight for this. It is matte and not too creamy. It also makes the shadow pigments stand out when you put them over the white background of Milk.
E.L.F Eyebrow filler and lifter
This eyebrow filler is great. Part of its greatness is the sharpener as the lid! Its genius!
I dont use the ‘lifter’ side as its not quite the right colour. I will use the filler end on the blank spots on my brows and use my brow brush to blend them in. Its the perfect matte brown and blends nicely.
Avon SuperShock Mascara in Black
I love love this mascara. I forgot about it since using benefit’s ‘they’re real ‘ mascara (which I love as well) but since my trial size is done I started using this again. I find it does not clump whatsoever and the think wand and bristles help comb and separate my lashes to help coat them better. Its also nice because Avon is not as expensive as benefit.
E.L.F Lip Stains
I love lip stains. I think they are the best invention in lip products. You can wear them alone or with lipstick on top. Ive tried the loreal/revlon 24 hour lipsticks but I found they flaked off and were extra drying. The lip stains just stain you lips. I’d suggest at least a balm over it just because the stain itself does nothing for the condition of your lips and they feel ‘natural’. If you wear lipstick over it will naturally fade away as the day goes along but who will know? you’ve got the lip stain to cover you! I have every elf colour.
My least Favourites are:
Mark. Light Bright Lighten & Depuff Eye Gel
NYX Photo-Loving Primer in Green
E.L.F Makeup Mist and Set
Hard Candy 1000 Lashes Fiberized mascara
Check out the video for my explanation why these are my least favourite.
