Whenever I buy a new product that I like I will go through a phase of using it every day but after a while I end up forgetting about it and just adding it to my make up collection. I'm trying to stop doing this and so I may try and do these posts regularly. It's just going to involve me showing you a few products I love again after not using them for a while.

| 1) L'Oreal Lumi Magique Pure Light Primer | £9.99
I did a review on this a few months back, and I loved it when I started using it but I sort of forgot about it for a few months. I am so glad I've found this again, I have fallen in love with it again! It's a beautiful illuminating primer which I am currently just applying it to my cheek bones, under my foundation and it gives me a subtle but pretty glow.

 | 2) Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum ~ 51 Vanille Clair | £10.99
I do still love this foundation, and I've never had any problems with it! I even did a review of it just over a month ago, however when I bought the MUA Undress Your Skin Illuminating Foundation I also really liked that so I abandoned my Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum. I find this gives me a medium coverage and lasts for the majority of my day without any problems with it making my skin looking oily. It has a pleasant (and subtle) scent to it before you apply it, but once it's been applied you cannot smell anything!

 | 3) MAC Semi Precious Highlighter ~ Crystal Pink | £14.50  
I bought this from a discount make up store in October last year and I thought it was so beautiful, but like the other products since then I just started using different products. I've been using the highlighter in this (the outer circle) and it is the most gorgeous highlight and I wish I'd kept using it! It's build-able if you want a more obvious shimmer to your cheeks, or it can be subtle. If you can find this in a discount store or online, I'd recommend trying it!

| 4) ELF Mineral Eye Brightener | £3.50
I don't think I've mentioned this on my blog before, but I bought it a couple of months ago and used it for about a week and gave up on it. The only reason I gave up on it was because I am quite lazy in the mornings and using another product on my face was time consuming! However, I've been using this again for about a week and I love it once again. It makes my concealer stay longer and sets it. The only 'downside' to this is that it makes a complete mess, but it is a mineral product which means it won't be the tidiest product so I shouldn't really complain!

Does anyone else forget about products after a couple of weeks?!

First of all thank you to everyone who follows me, I have finally hit 100 followers! I never ever thought anyone would follow me but I am so grateful!

So anyway, this is just the make up I've been wearing on a daily basis recently.

As you can probably tell from this post my October spending ban hasn't gone too well. However, I'm going to make an excuse and say these next couple of posts don't count as breaking my spending ban as much, because I am quitting smoking and so I treated myself. I went to visit Portsmouth Uni and so there were some shops I 'accidentally' ended up spending money in.

Anyway, I ended up buying a MAC Semi Precious Highlighter in Crystal Pink. I have wanted a MAC highlighter for a while now so when I saw in it a discount cosmetics shop, I felt I had to buy it and save myself £7. I only paid £14.50 for this highlighter, rather than £21.50 for a highlighter from the current collection.

It's such a pretty highlighter, which attracted me to it. The top swatch is from the veining section in the middle of the highlighter, and the bottom is from the outside section of the highlighter. It is a very pigmented highlighter and gives a beautiful glow once applied to the skin.

I am glad I bought this highlighter, even though I technically broke my October spending ban.

Have any of you tried the MAC highlighters?

Yesterday I bought my first ever MAC product that wasn't from a blogsale. I've wanted to buy something for ages but I wanted something I'd use everyday and that I'd get good use out of. I bought the Mineralize Skin Finish Natural in light since I am very pale. It was £21 but everyone else say it's worth it!

I haven't used it as of yet, but when I have I'll definitely do a review. Like I've already said I do have high hopes for this and especially as it's summer, having a good powder is vital.


I hope you're all well xx
