July Favourites

I found choosing my favourites this month really difficult as I have been loving so many different things lately, i've also tried quite a few different things this month, some which I have fallen in love with, but here are a few of my favourites...

Battle Of The Foundations: MAC vs Nars

MAC 'Studio Fix Fluid' and Nars 'Sheer Glow' foundations are always being raved about. I feel like they're 2 of the most popular foundations around at the moment and after trying them both I can see why. I really didn't know which one to go for when I was trying to choose my next foundation, but now that i've tried them both I know which one will be a staple in my make up collection...

MAC 'Heroine' Lipstick

Looking through my lipstick collection I realized that I only really buy reds and pale pinks, I think probably because these are seen as quite 'safe' colours and I know that if i'm going out that I can just grab one and know that it will go with most make up looks and outfits. I definitely thought it was time to spice things up a bit! I'd seen people wearing purples and blues quite a lot and thought they looked amazing, but wasn't too sure if I could pull it off. I'd heard a lot of hype about MAC's 'Heroine' lipstick and when I saw that it was available to buy again, I jumped at the chance to try it out!

FOTD - Wedding Look

Last weekend I went to my cousins lovely wedding in Devon. I love having an excuse to get dressed up and try something different with my make up, so I thought i'd share with you the look I went for. Annoyingly, my camera died after I took the photos of the make up I used so I had to take the rest with my phone, so excuse the poor quality!

Loving the pout a bit too much in this I think!

MAC Mineralize Skinfish 'Soft and Gentle'

For a while I was obsessed with the Sleek Contour Kit, I loved the matte bronzer but was more in love with the highlighter. I ran out not long ago, but decided to try something different instead of repurchasing. I'd heard a lot about the Mac Mineralize Skin Finish in 'Soft and Gentle' and thought that it looked so pretty so I decided to give it a go!

FOTD #2

I haven't done a face of the day for ageees, so thought I would give you all another one! My 'everyday' make up routine changes all the time, I always find new things that I add into what I use every day. These products are all ones that I use on a regular basis and am loving! I'm always chopping and changing my foundation and lately have started using the 'Rimmel Wake Me Up' and love it! I know so many people rave about it, but it is so nice, gives you a lovely fresh feeling face and not cakey at all!
