Natural Date Night Make Up Look...

This is my natural date night make up look, I hope you like it!

 
To start off I prime my face all over with Benefit porefessional and leave that set for a minute or two. Taking my Chanel vitalumiere aqua foundation in the shade 10 beige, I put a little drop on the back of my hand and blend it into my face using a flat foundation brush. A little goes quite far with this foundation and it smells amazing.
For my concealer lately I have been using my BareMinerals concealer in the shade light 2, I love this it covers my under eye circles, any redness I have and any little blemishes I have with no problem. It has a very light but creamy texture so I do recommend setting it with a powder. I use Rimmel stay matte powder in translucent.
For bronzer I used the Bourjois bronzing powder in shade 51. I use it on the underpart of my cheekbones (where you contour), temples, forehead hairline, under my jaw line and a little on my nose. It gives my face a nice little bronzed glow and isn't orangey at all. 
I used Benefits rockateur blush on the apples off my cheeks and bringing it back slightly too. On top of that I used a little bit of BareMinerals ready luminiser in shade the daydream, its a beautiful light pink shimmer.
If you are like me though a light shimmer isn't enough so on my cheekbones I used Benefits watts up highlighter too for that extra little bit of glow :). I also used this as my under-brow highlight once I had filled in my brows.
Onto the eyes, I start off by priming my eyes with Urban Decay primer potion.
Then taking satin taupe by Mac I blend this all over my eyelid and also take a little under my eye along my bottom lash line.
I then use a little charcoal brown on a 217 brush both by Mac & blend that into my crease.
Using Mac phloof! I very slightly highlight the inner corners of my eyes.
I use a long-lasting black waterproof eyeliner by Daniel Sandler to line my top water line. I can't fault this liner one bit, it's my holy grail eyeliner I love it!!!
for mascara I use Maybelline the falsies in black, this mascara is by far one of the best I have ever bought!
I then fill in my eyebrows using benefit browzing in the shade light. I don't use the wax that comes in that kit though, only the powder then I set my brows with a brown brow gel from Maybelline.
 
for my lips I like to keep it simple so I used a BareMinerals marvellous moxie lipgloss in the shade Rebel. These lip-gloss's are amazing, they are moisturising, long lasting and they are not sticky. They also have the best smell and taste too lol!
To finish off I set everything with Urban Decay oil control setting spray and i'm good to go :)!!
 
I hope you enjoyed this make up look, let me know what you think...

Can't Say No To BareMinerals...

So last week when i wasn't too well i decided to do a little online 'window' shopping, was intending on just having a look to see what i could put on my xmas list to give to my hubby! But for me that never seems to happen, even today i came on my laptop to solely write some blog post's and i have already purchases the Latest In Beauty's new box The Glamour Edit! I honestly can't stop myself! I will write a blog post about that box once it gets here :D! Back to what i came on to write about, as i said the other day i was looking online for some xmas present list ideas and whilst i was looking on the QVCuk website i seen a really nice BareMinerals set for £38.28. It comes with 3 Marvelous Moxie lipglosses, 3 mini ready blushers, a ready blush brush and a cute pale pink make up bag :)!

There is a lipgloss to match each blush which i thought was fantastic, trying to sometimes find blush & lip colours that go together can be a bit of a pain at times! The 3 Marvelous Mocie colours you get are Trail Blazer (gold beige) Hot Shot (candy pink) & Rebel (mauve pink). The 3 Mini Ready Blush colours you get are The Turn On (candy pink) The One (nude pink) and The Thrill (vibrent coral).
 
I put Trail Blazer gloss & The Thrill bush together

I then put Rebel gloss and The One blush together 

And finally i put Hot Shot gloss and The Turn On blush together 

The lipglosses are 4.5ml each which is full size and the blushers are mini sized (3g) but there are a good size for being 'mini' lol! They are also the perfect size to pop into your make up bag for when you are out and about :)! 
Please leave a comment telling me which set out of the 3 lipglosses and blushers are your favourite and why :).
Please don't forget to follow my blog, and if there is any future blogs you want me to write please let me know :)!
