FOTD Make Up


Hello everyone!

I hope your all well, today I'm going to share my make up I wore yesterday for a party.

 I used a palette which included a lovely selection of colours from neutrals to bright summery colours. I went for a bronze eye colour and for my base I used a lovely champagne colour from my Clinique eyeshadow quad.

 Moreover, I reached for a dark lipstick for my lips as I didn't fancy nothing bright. I used a dark berry coloured lipstick from MUA's matte range in Wild Berry. This colour is so lush and the lipstick honestly doesn't budge.

I also used a blush and this is by far my favourite drugstore blush EVER! This is from sleek and is their single blushes which are £4.99. This is in 'Flushed', this is a dark pinky red, which looks so natural and the pigmentation is brilliant. Definitely recommend sleek blushes.

Of course, I wanted a nice winged eyeliner. Today, I opted for a eyeliner in pen form. This is from MUA for £1! Can't go wrong. This isn't the best and not super black. I like it for a fine line and not too dark winged liner. I wouldn't recommend this though.

Below I will add a an image of all products I wore. Including my originals from my everyday make up.

Thank you for reading

Everyday make up post

Hi everyone, today I thought I would kick start my blog with me explaining to you all what make up I use daily and the tools. This post you guys can see what brands I like and what type of products I go for. Enjoy!



Everyday make up and tools

1. MUA Primer- for me primer is essential because it helps my make-up stay on all day and makes such a difference.

2. Maybelline Fit Me concealer-  during summer I prefer a light concealer over foundation as the weather is warmer I don't want anything thick on my face. I really like this concealer definetly my fave drugstore one! Super good for brightening under eyes.

3. Real Techniques contouring brush- I love this brush so much. It is really versatile like all the other RT Brushes. This is great for under eye concealer as it fits under the eyes and great for blending.

4. Rimmel Stay Matte Powder 001 transparent - this powder is the best powder ever!!! I love it so much. I've repurchased it countless times and is really good for mattifying  your make up to set and ensure it stays in place all day.

I use a Lydia professional face brush to powder my face lightly especially along my t zone as I'm really oily there.

5. 2true eyeliner- this liquid eyeliner is an old favourite sadly they don't sell this brand in superdrug anymore. But, luckily I stocked up! This eyeliner is brilliant, the brush is super thin creating a fine line along your lash line.

6. Rimmel Lash accelerator endless mascara- this is the best drugstore mascara! Alongside the Avon Supershock. Wow, this definitely creates a difference to your eyes giving them a bold, volumised look. 

7. Elf Blush Duo in Antigua- I'm not a fan of pink blushes but this one really attracted me as it had lovely glitters in it. Instantly, I purchased it and was very impressed. Very pigmented and gives you lovely glow and only £3.95 bargain!

8. Maybelline baby lips in Hydrate- this is my favourite baby lip and this is so moisturising and hydrating. I always wear this under my lipstick.

9. Lastly, but not least my lipstick. I use this not everyday as my lip option changes drastically. MAC Chatterbox is what I have been reaching for quite a bit as it very natural and a lovely true pink. It is very pigmented as it is an amplified finish. It can be sheered to be worn lightly or an opaque look.

Thank you for reading! Hopefully this gives you and insight in what products I like and reach for daily.

Stay tuned
