Welcome to our website !
I think we all have those days where simple make up is all we feel like and for me, today was one of those days.


| 1) ELF Mineral Foundation ~ Porcelain | £5
I recently purchased this as my first mineral foundation and I've been trying it out today. So far I'm really liking it, but I'm going to keep using it for a little longer before I do a full review.

 | 2) The Body Shop Eyeshadow ~ #4 | £7
I bought this eyeshadow a few weeks ago when The Body Shop had 50% off and I'm so glad I now have it. It's the perfect colour for me, and it's matte which I like on some days when I just want quick and easy make up. It doesn't crease and I've worn it without a primer today and I've still had no creasing so I'm impressed.

 | 3) Max Factor Wild Mega Volume Mascara ~ Black | £6.99 (currently £4.99 as an introductory price)
I've already done a full review of this mascara here and I absolutely love it. It has an hourglass shape wand, which isn't the normal wand you'd expect from a mascara, but I really like it. It doesn't clump my lashes and it doesn't flake off during the day.

 | 4) FashionistA Eyebrow Kit | £7 (currently on offer for £3.50!)
For a year or so I stuck to my ELF Eyebrow Kit but I decided it was time to try something new and I love this palette. I will be doing a review in the next couple of weeks so look out for that, but overall I'm really loving this palette for my brows and I definitely recommend it.

 | 5) Sleek Contour Kit ~ Light | £6.49
I've had my contour kit for a while now and I always go back to it to if I fancy a change from my Bourjois 'Chocolate' Bronzer. The contour powder in this kit is perfect for me because it doesn't look muddy and that's something I sometimes have an issue with, since I am so pale. The highlighter in the kit is also lovely, but however I gave that a miss and just wanted to add a little bit of colour to my face.


What are your staple beauty items for a simple make up look?
Whilst I was on holiday I finally bought another Sleek product, but this time I bought one of their blushes. I bought the shade Rose Gold because everyone seems to love it!





As you can see it is quite shimmery which I'm not usually a fan of, however it's not overdone. It looks so pretty on the cheeks and gives a nice glow.

I bought it from Superdrug for £4.29 which isn't expensive considering it's 8g. It has a mirror as well in the lid, which will be useful. I do think I'll be wearing this a lot this summer (well, what's left of it).

A while ago i bought the Sleek Contour Kit in 'light'. i had high hopes for this product as loads of people raved about it on youtube.




As you can see, it has such nice packaging as always with Sleek, a huge mirror and the contour and highlighter are both really pigmented! It's definitely worth the £6.50 and I will be re-purchasing it once I've finished this one.

The highlighter - Previously I had only used 'High Beam' by Benefit and I didn't think I'd ever like a different highlighter, but this leaves a subtle but pretty glow on the skin and looks so pretty, especially as the weather's improving!

The contour powder - I haven't had much luck with contouring before because I'm so pale they usually look orangey and horrible on me, but this is just right! It defines my cheek bones really well but still looks natural at the same time. I'm really impressed with this product.
First of all i need to say this is my absolute favourite palette that i own! I purchased it on summer whilst on holiday by the coast as I'd seen so many youtubers and bloggers mention it. I can see why everyone loves it! It was such a good price too.

So this is what the actual palette looks like (sorry about it being over exposed and really white)
Ignore how mine is covered in make up! But it has lovely packaging, thats simple but chic.

So here are the shades...

As you can clearly see I've hit pan on the neutral shade, which I have been using every day all over my eye lid just to even out the colouring and make my eyes look brighter

There are a mix of matte shades and some shimmery shades. I use the black over my pencil eyeliner to make it stay longer and the matte brown next to it to fill in my eyebrows with as my E.LF. eyebrow kit has almost run out :(



As you can see the colours are so pigmented, and this was without a primer underneath them as well.

Overall I would definitely recommend this palette to anyone since it has wearable everyday colours but can also be used to create a night time look. I love that there is a variety of both matte and shimmery shades and especially that there's a matte black eyeshadow which I put over the top of my eyeliner to make it stay longer.

You can purchase it from Superdrug and it's only £6.49 so it's a bargain for the 12 shades!
