My everyday essentials!

Gosh Natural touch foundation.

Before I tried this product I only brought it because I was going on holiday in august and wanted a foundation containing an SPF and this one was the only one I could find for a reasonable price in my local superdrug. It contains and SPF 8 and yes it works even for my easily burnt Ivory skin tone BUT now, I couldn't live without it. I really love how silky smooth it feels and how effortlessly it blends and how quickly it drys! It covers all imperfections with ease AND to top it off its an Ivory containing NO orange, I always find that  'ivory' foundations say they are ivory which too me means a creamy white/cream and they're not they're orangey undertones! Irritating. BUT I do love this foundation, I don't think I'd ever buy another!

Elf mineral foundation in Fair.

Oh how could you not love this?! aside from the packaging which can get annoying tapping and tapping with nothing coming out. I love the smoothness, the softness, the matte colour and how easy it is too buff on the skin! I usually use this over the top of my foundation as foundations are always too dewy for my liking! I put a load on a huge brush a buff it all over! If I want a little bit more I just buff a little bit more on, Its so easy to use! If I had better skin I would probably wear this alone, it gets rid of all imperfections complete so you can't see them AT all. PERFECT.

MUA blusher shade 1.

This is my faveriot blushed and for only £1 its a steal! Its a real pinky bubble gum pink, it goes on lightly and is a super lovely colour thats so easy to blend and build up! It really suits my light skin tone really well and I always get complimented on it!

Rimmel Exaggerate eyeliner.

I LOVE this eyeliner, Its perfect the nib could probably be slightly smaller but it's great if you know what your doing! I love it because it takes a little longer to dry and you can go over the same bit a few times without it smudging off and flaking off like some do. The colours intense and last a really long time, and hardly smudges for instance today my eye was watering all morning really bad, I don't know why I think I was tierd, and the smallest amount of eyeliner came off, which was amazing I only had to do a tiny touch up!
FAB!

MUA lipstick in Nude.

Ahhh I only got this a few days ago but i'm already in love! I never ever thought about wearing a nude lipstick but as soon as I put this on I fell pretty hard! I usually have heavy eye make-up so I thought I would tone it down nicely compared to my deep reds and bright pinks! Its a super creamy matte lipstick with a really high pigment! and the best bit? It only cost £1! Super dooooooooper.

Simple cleansing facial wipes.

I've used these for so so long and they are the best, they are really soaked with product so they don't dry easily and soak make-up off effortlessly! They leave you skin feeling soft and clean which I love! They are perfect for sensitive skin and don't make your eyes sting when removing eye make-up! Lovely I love these.

BOSS Orange EDT spray.

Now I usually am a loyal Alien lover and I have been for so so long its my all time favorite, BUT I got brought this as a gift at Christmas and I liked it straight away its light a fruity unlike alien which is dark and mysterious smelling. Its so nice for day time wear and you can really smell the Orange blossom and Vanilla its lovely!


So these are my must haves! Let me know if you have enjoyed this post and would like to see more,
Does anyone else use these products and what do you think of them?

My all time number 1 Elf product!

My all time faverout Elf product ever! The Mineral foundation in Ivory!

what the website says - 

Foundation Our weightless mineral foundation will help get you on your way to healthier illuminating skin. All our powders blend naturally into the skin, and are so light that they work with your skin color to create a perfect color match. All of our foundations contain sun protection factor (spf) 15 and are 100% mineral based with no parabens, no preservatives and no chemical dyes. Weight - 0.1oz (2.84g) Directions Shake the Natural Mineral Foundation – SPF 15 back and forth to get excess loose powder into the tray. Gently glide over the powder with an e.l.f. Kabuki or Total Face Brush to grab the powder, bring your brush to the cap to work in the powder to the brush, then tap off any excess. Apply to areas of the face that need coverage by working into the skin in a circular motion.

Packaging. -

Its a smallish sized tub with a twist off black lid, inside there is a sieve like contraption and under that it the loose powder all you do to get the powder out is shake it side to side or VERY gently tip in upside down ( with th lid still on of course.) and tap it very gently I do warn you!. 

Colour.

I love the colour of this foundation, Its so so pale which is so great for me as i'm snow white almost. I know some people like dark foundation but I just look odd! I have to embrace my pale skin! It really is ivory, most ivory product that i've ever used it has slightly yellow undertones which sets it apart from other foundations that have orange this beauty has no orange. YAY!

Heres the swatch, you can see how pale my skin is!

Overall. 

This is, my all time favorite without doubt! although I use it as a setting powder for my actual liquid foundation, but im sure it would make such a good foundation i'm just not ready for the powder only thing! Anyway its so smooth and sooo soft it buffs so beautifully onto your skin. The problem i have with this powder is if you tap it too hard too much powder will come out of the sieve and its hard to get it back into the lower half! And the last thing is not too put too much on a brush either as many many times i've put this on and i'm totally covered in fall out, but you can't complain with a product like this for a price of £3.50!

Whats everyone else's favorite foundation?

I loveeeeee shopping!

So on Monday I went shopping with my amazing Fiance, It was so lovely and I picked up some gorgeous new stuff! (Beware there's a lot of photos!)

I needed a new pair of slip ons and these are so cute! I had to pick them up! They were only £9.99 too, Bargain!

I was desperate for a new pair of boots and Its took me all day to find these beauties! (sorry for the lace on the right shoe look messy I was in a rush!) They're super super comfy and I actually picked these up from a small shoe boutique stall in the middle of the shopping center, They were £20 which I think is great considering my old pair where £40!

I brought this top on a whim really It was only £3.99, Along with the skirt below. I thought they would look lush together and they infact do. I LOVE my new outfit! 

I love this skirt from H&M not only was it super cheap £3.99 but It would suit any size person I recon I brought it in a size 12 and its slightly loose if i wear it up on waist, Slighter lower down is fab! and same on my hips. I suppose it just depends on what you are going for as it is so so versatile. They come in soo many other colours as well and i'm defiantly going back to get a few more!

I got the blazer/coat in the sale for £7! I was so impressed, I sits so lovely just below my hips. It doesn't look like much on the hanger but when wore with jeans or a skirt its just fab. I don't know if I will ever take it off.

I got this skater dress (I think they're called that.) and i've wanted one for ages! I brought in topshop for a reasonable £20, Its made of a stretchy material which is great for my big boobs and small waist as all the other ones I'd brought fit me great everywhere BUT my boobs they were way to stiff and they looked ridiculous. This one however is perfect, I can't wait to dress it up/down!

I got some new make-up too! I've going to be reviewing all three of these later, Especially the mascara that i'm not 100% sure with! 

I brought this lovely ring from topshop in the sale it was only £1.50 down from £5.00!

I got this necklace in the topshop sale too, It was originally £15.00! lush. Anyways its a leaf with little bluey/greeny studs its on a short gold chain so it hanging just between and under my collarbones! Lushhh.

And  these super super super cute earrings! I LOVE them although I didn't realize until I took this photo that a diamond is missing! What a shame, but hey ho I didn't realize until I took the photo so I suppose no-one else will (I hope!) They were originally £8.50!

Last thing! 

I wondered into pound land as I need some tissues for my cold and I stumbled across these! 24 Make-Up sponges for £1! I brought them just to test them out, They're okay nothing too special they come in all different shapes sizes and textures. I think they're not bad for just a pound!

Has anyone else found something out of the ordinary recently while shopping?
