Favourites - Face + Cheeks!

Yay, more faves!!!



This is something I've had for roughly a month now and literally cannot get enough of it. By far the best BB I've come across. It's alot thicker than other BB's with more coverage. It doesn't come off as easy, it has a semi-matte finish and does actually blend into my pale skin very nicely.



 NARS Sheer Glow in Mont Blanc. Two things I tend to avoid - "Sheer" and "Glow". However, this is my go to foundation. Medium coverage, semi matte, flawless finish.




 MAC Prolongwear concealer in NC15. This is about the only thing that will look decent under my eyes. I have very annoying lines under my eyes that every concealer, bar this one, will cake up and crease in. Of course, I still need to set with powder, but it's a great concealer for under the eyes.





Illamasqua Loose Powder in 010. Go to setting powder - It's translucent and smells of vanilla. Nom.


 

  
 MAC Surf Baby Skinsheen Bronzer Stick in Tan Tint. On the very, VERY rare occasion I wear bronzer, this is what I prefer to use. It's creamy, dewy, no shimmer bronze-y perfection.

 



NARS Mata Hari Blush - This is my go to blush every winter. I love that it's darker and slightly purple-y, gives a lovely deep cheek that I think is perfect for winter.





Illamasqua Blush in Lover. A beautiful warm peach and one of the first things I bought from Illamasqua. This became a cult classic not long after and for a while was sold out!



 

NARS Orgasm Blush. Peachy pink, I think everyones about seen this one now.



 

MAC Stunner blush - a gorgeous soft natural pink coral.





MAC Keep It Loose Casual Colour Lip and Cheek cream. A beautiful dewy peach colour.



 

 MAC My Paradise Surf Baby blush - As you can see, I haven't used this much, but I love the design more than the colour. Don't get me wrong, it's a very pretty blush but I prefer looking at it than using it.





MAC Lightscapade Mineralize Skinfinish. Go to highlighter - shimmery off white, just not scary off white!


Do you have any favourites?

Favourites: Eyes

More faves! This time eyes;




 
 My baby Z Palette (all MAC shadows) - Early Bird, Omega, Carbon, Naked Lunch, Sumptuous Olive, Copperplate, Vanilla, Satin Taupe, Club. This palette always houses my most used/current faves.



MAC Bio Green - Gorgeous sparkly bright green.

MAC Surf USA - From Surf Baby, gorgeous shimmery blue teal. 

 MAC Painterly Paint Pot - My go to "primer". That actually looks really gross. Think it's about time I got a new one!

Chanel Emerville. My go to eyeshadow when I can't be arsed. This is just gorgeous though.

Bourjois 02 (I think, will have to check!). It's a bit sheer so has to be built up, but it's still a fun spring colour.

Eyeko Skinny Liner - no idea what colour it is, but it's pretty much my go to liner since I only break out the black liners in winter. It takes the pink out of my waterline.


 
MAC Undercurrent. Vibrant shimmery teal. I prefer using this as a base rather than a liner.

MAC Liquid last liner in Aqualine. This is a ridiculously pretty turquoise. MAC got rid of their Liquidlast range though, and this is the only one I have. This takes a shit load of effort to get off aswell.

 Lime Crime uniliner in Citreuse. Like the most perfect chartreuse colour ever. I favour coloured liquid liners over black because I find they can be more forgiving - you don't have to be so precise.



What's your favourite eye products?

Favourites: Lipsticks + Glosses

A series of favourites posts, starting with lippies as they seem to be the least work given it's 1am!




 MAC Summer Shower - Part of the Fashion Flower collection last spring. It's basically a really sheer blue with blue/teal shimmer. Adds nothing but shimmer but I loves it.


MAC Fabby. It's a kind of mauve-y pink with shimmer. An odd colour really but very nice when on. Has a slightly frosted finish but nothing OTT.



 MAC Watch Me Simmer - Released twice this year already, a bright pink coral.



MAC Costa Chic. My go to coral. Frosted finish, again nothing OTT. Coral perfection!



MAC Angel. This is my second tube of this, it's my go to pink.



MAC Oh, Oh, Oh. Looks really scary in the tube, but when worn it's a really nice muted purple-pink with gold shimmer.



 MAC Whirls and Twirls - Last holiday collection. A really frosted barely there warm pink. Doesn't really add colour, just shimmer, but looks lovely in winter for frosted pink lips.



MAC Viva Glam Gaga. This pink is too blue on me, I know that, yet I still wear it purely because it's a Gaga. I actually have three of these, this one being the second tube I used. I have an unused tube that will remain unused!



MAC Viva Glam Gaga 2, I also have three tubes of this (and yes, one will remain unused!). A medium nude, not too pink, not too yellow.



Illamasqua Apocolips. No, I don't wear this on a daily basis :P But it's teal and I love teal, so there!



Chanel Chance. Light yellow pink. Perfect for a "I can't be bothered" lip (plus, the perfume smells fab).



Dior Zinnia Red. I think this might be my perfect red. Medium dark, blue based. Nom.



Benefit *forgets name*. Basically just gold shimmer, nothing more. Lovely on it's own or layered.



Maybelline Cherry Pop. One of the new candy lipsticks. I swear, this smells EXACTLY like cherry lollies. The temptation to take a bite is just too much at times. It looks red but it actually comes out a shade of orange. At least on my hand, on lips it isn't as...odd.





MAC Strange Potion. Originally launched with Venomous Villians, re-launched with Surf Baby (which, to this day is still my favourite MAC collection). A slightly shimmery coral.



MAC Pink Lemonade. Pinky coral.



MAC Richer, Lusher. Pinky coral with barely-there white shimmer. Have you noticed that I love corals yet?




MAC Narcissus. A strangely beautiful semi-sheer medium purple. 



MAC Pleasure Principal. Pink/teal glitter, no colour.



 MAC *minds drawn a blank - will so need to update this in the morning*. Sheer pink with teal/pink sparkle.




Summer Shower, Fabby, Watch Me Simmer, Costa Chic, Angel, Oh Oh Oh, Whirls and Twirls, Viva Glam Gaga, Viva Glam Gaga 2
