Favourites... (and worst)

I'm just going to keep this as a post i'll keep updating everytime I think of a product i've been using and love!

- Elf Studio Eyeshadow Primer - Choose this over an expensive one any day! I used the Estee Lauder one for a while and this definitely wins.

- Shu Uemera blush in Peach - 44. True matte peach colour and really subtle and summery, love it!

- Laura Mercier Illuminating Powder - previously mentioned.

- Collection 2000 concealer, already mentioned this

- Sleek palettes, just because they're so handy, fit into your makeup bag and useful colours in them all, i'm definitely thinking of expanding my collection

- Maybelline colour sensational cream gloss - love this stuff, i don't always wear lipgloss (!) but I love the nude shades here! 



There aren't loads of products I hate so thought i'd add them on here:

- Elf Mineral Infused Mascara - I ordered this because I needed a cheap mascara, I love the brush , small and tapered, and it was buildable and a good mascara but transferred to the top of my eyes and it was SO annoying having these little dots everytime I looked in the mirror, my mum found it transferred underneath too. I'd rather go for a Miss Sporty or Collection 2000 over this

May Favourite Products...

Products I've bought and liked in May... went for cheaper stuff this time! :)

1) Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer - this stuff is ace, only £3.99 and good coverage. Definite new favourite...

2) 2true natural powder bronzer - saw this mentioned on Pixiwoo, it's matte and only 2 quid so i thought why not, I find it hard to get matte bronzers cheap so this was nice - little on the orange side for me but still can look natural.

3) Body Shop Vitamin E facial mist - Use this before foundation, as a sort of primer. I really wanted Mac Fix + for the same thing but i guess this is a cheaper alternative... My skin is fairly dry and i like it to be super moisturised before i start as it applies much better. I can see myself using this a light moisturiser in summer too!

4) Mememe illuminators - will do a seperate post on these

5) No 7 Eyeshadow and Contour Brush - I use this for concealer, it's good for blending under the eye. It's synthetic and works perfectly for concealer, it looks like it should be a concealer brush really, but I know my friend uses it for eyeshadow, versatile!
