I cannot believe we are getting closer to spring. This winter seems to have gone by really quickly which makes me super happy.
With the weather getting milder and my birthday at the beginning of the month I have bought so many new things. Check out my youtube video on all the details of my February faves [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!
Body Shop Haul
I got an email from the body shop this morning about their one day sale. It was today only and it was 50% off ALL the makeup. I needed new face stuff so it could not have been any more convenient.
I made the special trip to the mall to check it out. The staff were amazing and the manager helped me pick out exactly what I needed. I found a cream foundation that I will try out along with a loose powder.
The Marcelle loose translucent powder has been making my face look a little to pink and really making my acne show through. The powder is more yellowy so I’m hoping this will work out.
Of course that was not all I got. It’s 50% off!!!
I didn’t go too crazy but I did get lip gloss. I don’t actually own translucent like lip gloss. I got peach and watermelon. The peach is pretty clear but the watermelon gives a hint of colour. I have tried these already and they are not terribly sticky or gummy. They smell nice with out being too sugary smelling…. If that even makes sense
My next purchase is a blush. At the moment I don’t have a nice sheer like blush. On the recommendation of the manager I got this one. I swatched it on my hand but its hard to see 🙂
The last thing I purchased, which I’m most excited about is the illuminator! I’ve been eyeing the benefit high beam highlighter but I’ve had trouble coughing up the 26$ for it. This one was 14.50$ regular price and I got 60% off!!! I decided to try it.
I’m really excited to try out all if these products and ill keep you posted in how I liked them 🙂
Have you ever tried the body shop make up???
