Top 3 Highlighters

Spring is in the air and that means that we can all go a little bit crazy with Highlighter, I know I do at this time of year.

I thought I'd share with you my top 3 highlighters that I've been using one after another.






(L-R) Makeup Academy - Undress your skin Shimmer Highlighter - Iridescent gold, Mac - Mineralise skin finish - Soft &Gentle, Benefit - Watts up

1. Makeup Academy - This highlighter I've been using when its colder outside because it's the perfect colour for transitioning between the seasons. It's more of a silver highlighter then the usual gold colour.

2. Mac - Soft & Gentle - This is the most perfect Highlighter I've ever used. Its lovely on the skin and leaves a  beautiful shimmer thats not too over the top but still natural looking. Like you've just come off a beach. 

3. Benefit - Wattsup - This Highlighter is lovely when you don't fancy where a powder on your skin that day. I usually wear this highlighter on nights out to bring out my cheek bones and too make myself feel glowing. 

Are there any more Highlighters I should try? 
Give me a shout.

My top 3 foundations

Foundation is key in my eyes. I could go outside with nothing but foundation on and feel lovely.

I just thought I'd inform you all on my favourite foundations of the moment.


1. Mac Pro longwear - Shade - NW15 

I was never a fan of Mac foundation because I thought it was too heavy for a daily wear, that was until I experimented and figured that I don't actually have to cake it on my face. I still only wear it when I'm going out or I know I'll be having pictures taken.

2. Bourjois Healthy mix - Shade - Light Vanilla 
This is my every day go to foundation. I love the balls off this stuff. It's perfect with its light coverage and amazing smell. I'd highly recommend this foundation to anyone (and often do)

3. Nars Sheer matte - shade - Siberia 
Story - I was supposed to pick up the sheer glow so I could try it but picked up the wrong one.
However, This product doesn't get the attention it deserves. Not one for dry skin, but all in all one of my favourite foundations. (I am aware that it is very pale, but so am I).

I hope you enjoyed having a read of this, thanks a bunch

Top 3 Face masks

I've been really down lately and when I feel like this I know a good pamper night will sort me right out.

During my pampers I will always use a face mask, these are my top 3.



1. (L-R) Clinique Moisture surge over night mask
This mask is perfect if you have a big day coming up, Its got a very light and non sticky texture its just like putting your moisturiser on and going to sleep. 

2. Superdrug Detoxifying face mask
This is your typical face mask (Mud) and smells funny looks funny on but leaves a lovely smooth skin afterwards (A mistake I made was leaving it on for too long and burning my face). 

3. Balance me Radiance face mask 
This product smells lovely and is lovely on the skin. This product you leave on for five minutes and take it off with a damp face cloth. It leaves the face feeling lovely and fresh, just what the Doctor ordered for this time of year.

Is there any face masks that I should try? let me know..

Thanks

Pamper Night _ Saturday night







On a very lonely Saturday night I have decided to do a mini pamper, because that always makes me feel so much better. 

I've had a pretty crappy week and would much prefer to run away from everything.

Anyway, back to the pamper.

I always start with a bath, Baths actually help to calm me down and its just time to chill out.
Obviously the bath will consist of a Lush bath bomb. I used Melting Marshmallow Moment It smells like heaven and let my skin feeling beautiful. 

Then used a face mask, I picked up the super drug own brand Detoxifying Face Mask it drys very quickly so its only a five minute relaxant. 

Next I would usually snack on some fruit (Grapes! I love grapes!)
and either read a book or watch some Netflix.

Netflix - Pretty little Liars

Book - Gone Girl 

Thanks for reading guys.

Body shop: Madagascan vanilla flower- body spray


The body shop had a ridiculous 40% off everything for members of there discount club yesterday, So it was only right that I had a peak. My main aim was to pick some gifts up for Christmas presents but I was on a time scale and had to be quick. Me being me, I panicked and only ended up with the one item. Oh well better luck next time. 

I got the Madagascan vanilla flower, and it's beautiful. It's a smell that reminds me of Christmas and summer at the same time. Perfect.

Thanks for reading guys
