First on my list was my make-up. I love Boots and Superdrug but I never go in and buy what I needed. This time I went in for hair mousse and my monthly load of batiste and well... I completely forgot about it.
Instead I ended up buying, new foundation, new powder and a lipstick all of which I must confess I had little or no need of.
Here is my foundation, it is a No7 "Beautifully Matte Mousse" in "Cool Beige". It says it has a medium coverage but I find it to be a bit heavy however not too thick on my skin it still felt light and was so easy to work with. When it comes to my foundation if I'm trying out a new one I like to make sure that it will match my skin. I nearly always go to the counter to get matched and I fully believe that it is worth it. then you can be sure there is no chance of having oompa loompa orange skin. This was well worth buying and i highly highly praise it, the only draw back with this was I think it is fine for weekends but would not want to walk the school corridors wearing it.
Next up is my powder, this is also a No7 product and it is one I keep going back to! It's called "Perfect Light Pressed Powder" and is in "Fair". I wear this to school as it gives me great coverage and also goes really well over my concealer. It doesn't make me look too pale or too tanned and it is so light (obvious to say about a powder right) but if you tried it you would understand.
Finally for my make up is this red lipstick, this again is No7 (surprise surprise) and is called "Sheer Temptation" in "Glam". I loved the colour of this and the casing of it is so handy however I am afraid that that is as good as it gets. The lipstick doesn't stay on for very long, it is difficult to apply (even with a brush) and comes off on to everything! It is lovely when it is on though and I love the way it looks but unfortunately I do not love wearing it.
My second little guilty pleasure is Topshop jewellery. I don't usually buy things from here though as they can be so expensive, however when I was pondering through the other day I noticed that some of there jewellery was on sale! To this I responded in purchasing 2 new rings for my collection. The first costing me no more then £1! it is a small, gold ring that fits onto your thumb or fourth finger it has ridges all the way round it, it looks good with everything I have worn so far and hope this keeps happening.the second costing a bit more at, I believe, £5-6 this is also gold but is a bit larger and in the shape of a shield and has little bumps all along it, this only fits onto your fourth finger and can get very uncomfortable. I wear it with my blazer and skinny jeans, it looks casual but is made for a bit more of a fancy outfit ( e.g. i wouldn't wear it with jeans and a t-shirt)
I hope this has given you a few ideas of what would be good to buy and for what occasion or outfit.
Definitely should be banned from boots for a while I think...
Hope your all having a wonderful week,
Much Love <3
