Make up Haul!

OMG I haven't posted in like ten years, so sorry guys!!

Uni has been keeping me really stressed & busy.

BUT I have finally come round to writing about my Makeup Haul which took place a few weeks ago. Finally got the things I have been needing for ages or have been keen to try! :)

I have done a YouTube video talking all about these new products if you wanna have a loooky!

 Okay so I will start with my new foundation & concealer... I have always used Rimmel London Foundation, the shades and texture have always been a winner for me. I have noticed lately that quite a lot of people are hyppppedddd up about the WAKE ME UP foundation & concealer so I thought I would give them a go!

First of all I think these look alot nicer than that 25 hour foundations by Rimmel I was using, always love a bit of bright colour in my makeup bag. :) Thankfully they had the same shade as my previous foundation - "Soft Beige" and I was really happy with the results. It goes on very smoothly giving an overall neat and balanced look. It can go on well using fingers and a brush, I tend to use brushes more. You don't need a lot of this product because it evenly spreads all over. The colour is great also!! Definitely my faveourite foundation so far, really recommened it! :)

Now on to the concealer...

I have never been into concealer, my friends use it but I had never used it before I tried this one. I'm always careful about how many layers of makeup that go on to the face because it is never good to block up the pours. Howeverrrrr I gave this a go and actually didn't realise how good concealers were!! I put it under my eyes, sides of my mouth, and obviously on the darker patches or spots/boils whatever we have thrown at us! :p It adds a lovely appearance with some great highlights under the eyes to make you look more refreshed.

Now on to the powder, I went through a while of not using powder on top of my foundation because my Stay Matte ran out. I did however during this time notice my makeup going patchy during the day so I thought I would give a new powder a go! I came across this FIT ME Maybelline NewYork powder and I was very pleasantly surprised!! My favourite powder by far... makeup stayed on, lovely and smoothly all day! It isn't thick or heavy but you can see it do the trick :) I hate applying powders and you can't even see it!

So now the face products are done, I was then looking for a nice subtle red lipgloss because I always get pink I thought that I need to push myself into the darker colours! I came across this Loreal Paris "Princess" Red Lipgloss and looooved it. I find the brush a bit hard to apply the gloss onto my lips so I dab it on and mix with my fingers. It is great for staying on because it doesnt stay sticky - it dries as soon as applied like it turns into a lipstick! 

Still onto the lips... I usually always grab the light pink lipsticks which always end up being the same colour, I need some different tones! I have been loving the coral pink lips that others have bee wearing so my aim was to get one :) This Maybelline NewYork "Colour Sensational" Gloss did the job. It goes on lovely and thin with the perfect coral pink colour I was looking for. it stays on for a good while and keeps your lips looking lovely and shiny!

To finish off the lips I got a brown lip liner, my one ran out ages ago and I really missed it! I decided to update it and go for a new one - Rimmel's Lasting Finish Lip Liners are fab. I didnt want one too dark because I hate the strong heavy lines around lips! This liner is lovely and subtle - I apply it around my lips and then put lipstick and lipgloss inside the rest of my lips to give the overall lush look. My lips appear so much bigger!

The last thing I am going to talk to you guys about today is my mascara. I feel like I never need to update or change my mascara. I have always used this one because it really is perfect!! My lashes appear so much longer and thicker. I have spoken about the Max Factor Masterpiece on before in my earlier posts with before and after pics :) go have a looky! :) Also I have bee applying vasaline every night on my eyelashes and they have really improves length and thickness wise. Give it a try :) x
