February Favourites 2015

During this month, there has been a few products I have reached for time and time again. Most of them are new products and I have featured them in this blog post because they are so good and I'm sure these are my new favourite go-to products.
The first product is the MUA Cosmetics Pro-Base Smooth, Set and Prime. This is so good at what it claims to do, and creates a flawless base for foundation or to mimic the appearance of foundation. This is £5 in Superdrug and this is now one of my essential products.
I bought a foundation this month which is completely unusual for me since I don't like wearing foundation. This is the new Maybelline Dream Flawless Nude Foundation and this is a watery consistency which appears weightless on the skin, providing a decent amount of coverage without it being cakey. I love this because it looks invisible, I can't feel it on my skin and it blends really easily.
I have been constantly using the MUA Cosmetics Luxe Whipped Velvet Blush in the shade Rococo. This is a really nice whipped consistency that glides and blends into the skin creating a sheer wash of colour and a healthy natural glow.
One of my new favourite palettes is the Collection Eyes Uncovered Nude Bronzed Palette. I love the shades and the pigmentation of the eye shadows and this is such an affordable palette and excellent value for money. This is the palette I constantly reach for, I even wore the shades from this palette to an important interview this week - that's how much I love this palette.
The final product I have been loving this month is the Garnier Moisture + Matte Moisturiser. This is an oil free moisturiser which is effective at moisturising and mattifying combination-oily skin. This is a lighter consistency and feels so much better than other moisturisers that have a heavier consistency.

How To: Apply False Nails

Image
Hey guys Today I thought of doing a quick post today. Today I wanted to do a 'How To' post and this one is Applying False Nails. Even though it's easy, you need to do it properly so they look as natural as possible. And I'm going to tell you how I apply my false nails. You need: False Nails (you can get them cheap in supermarkets, makeup stores etc) Nail Glue (most nails come with glue, but you can buy glue at Superdrug for around £4 ( www.superdrug.co.uk ) Cuticle Pusher or cuticle stick Nail scissors (curved work best) Emery board 1) Begin by selecting the false nails that best fit your natural nail. It needs to be accurate because it will look more realistic. 2) Use a cuticle stick/pusher and gently push your cuticles back to avoid the nail sticking to it (which, will hurt if you take them off!!) If you want, you can cut the cuticles off. 3) Apply nail glue all over the natural nail. Be careful with the glue - it bonds in seconds, difficult to remove

MUA Cosmetics Review

Image
Hey everyone Last week for my birthday, I went shopping and while I was in Superdrug and I  picked up some things from MUA (Makeup Academy). There are some products here I haven't tried, one product I have but not this particular name. I actually fell in love with this brand when it was a very small company when everything was £1! Then the company expanded which made me very happy and so I tried   these products and I have mixed reviews. The first product I am reviewing is the BB Cream. This is £4 in the MUA online store ( www.muastore.co.uk ) or in Superdrug ( www.superdrug.com ). I wanted a BB Cream because I find foundation is too heavy and is bad for your skin and I started to go off tinted moisturizer. Anyway, for the price in general is OK for the product. I bought Shade Medium last week and I think this is a bit too dark for me even though the medium and light shade are very similar. The BB Cream is easy to blend. For me, this is going to be mixed with something light
