Covering up all the BLeUGh on my face

Hey! This is a general post about my everyday foundation/skin make up.

Rimmel Wake Me Up Foundation & Collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer 

I don't put loads of foundation or concealer on my face everyday but I get quite bad skin and under-eye circles so if i'm leaving the house to see people i'll usually at least put on some concealer under my eyes and on my blemishes (using fancy make up professional words oooOOo).

For my concealer, I like to use Collection 2000 lasting perfection concealer with is GREAT. It has really good coverage and I can't remember exactly how much it cost but it wasn't a lot (under £5 from Boots). The only problem I have with it is that its quite shiny so if I have like a big lumpy spot (eugh i know), i think it's better to use more matte concealer so that light doesn't reflect off it and it shows up less but Collection is great on my under eye circles and on small things.

If I'm going out or I'm having a particularly bad skin day I use Rimmel Wake Me Up foundation over that and it is my very favorite foundation, it makes your skin look much more natural because of its dewiness (I really hate completely matte foundation, it looks so unnatural and just like fake skin) but still covers everything up really well and even though it costs quite a lot (at least for me), it's dEEfinitely worth it.

If I think the Rimmel foundation is a little too dewy I'll sometimes put some powder over it to set it and take away some of the shine and that's it.

I still haven't found any bronzers or blushes that I really like so if anyone has any suggestions pleasee tell me.

Lips

Hello hi, this is a sort of review of all my favorite lip balms/scrubs.

 

Vaseline, Burts Bees, Carmex & Lush Lip scrub

1. Vaseline- You can basically get Vaseline from anywhere for about £2 and I really like using it as a more short term balm. It helps to moisturize my lips but I find it rubs off quickly and doesn't last very long in my opinion. I also really like the way it looks on your lips and makes them look a lot more hydrated and shinier which is nice. I also enjoy using the pink Vaseline for "rosy lips" it does the same and adds some colour to your lips and as I'm not a big fan of lip gloss it is a good substitute.
2. Burts Bees lip balm- This one is a little bit more money but I really like it, although it gives my lips less shine, I think it lasts longer and I really LOVE the peppermint taste. It's also really good for you. It's 100% natural and is rich in vitamins.
3. Carmex-I LOVE CARMEX, it's my number 1 balm. It's less than £3 and it work so well. Anyone who's never used it should really try it out. It gives you a nice shiny layer and giver really long lasting moisture (combo of Vaseline and Burts Bees).
4. Lush Lip Scrub-I think that Lip Scrub is a really great product to use in the morning and the evening to get rid of any dead skin before putting on any lip balms. I tend not to carry it around with me during the day because it is quite messy (I think) but I do love it, and it tastes incredible.

Halloween nails TAA DAH

Hey! So Halloween is coming up and it's one of my favoriteeee celebrations, I love dressing up and trick or treating (you're never too old) and so I decided to do some Halloween nails so yeah, here's what they looked like:

Sorry my hand looks weird aha

I don't know whether this is like a well known fact or something, but I only discovered a few weeks ago that you can draw sharpie over your nail varnish and it dries instantly and stays put so I used sharpie a lot with these nails.

So yeah, those are my Halloween nails. TAA DAH, byebyee.
