I have been so busy lately that makeup pics have been lacking for which I apologise. Proper reviews and swatches are to follow but here are some new things I have been obsessed with this month.
First up is one of the new YSL Voile de Blush‘s in shade no 2. This blush is the ultimate sheer wash of gorgeous coral colour for a bit of colour in your cheeks. This works well with all olive skin tones or if you love fake tan like me! The consistency is a gel and it is totally non sticky and so sheer and gorgeously easy to apply. Pricey but I love it soooo much! I want the other colours asap.
Clinique – Age Defence BB Cream SPF 30
I was sent this BB cream to test out and have it in shade 1 which is great for when I am not fake tanning. I have to wear a high SPF at the moment due to the laser treatments making the skin very sensitive to sunlight.
I have very dry skin and find this perfect. It gives a natural tinted moisturiser coverage that is sheer but evens out the skintone.
It has a very natural coverage
Shade 1
Please note it is a chemical sunscreen so check that the ingredients don’t break you out at the counter before buying, try a little on the jawline. I love the coverage and I don’t find it as greasy as other Clinique foundations although I don’t think this will be that good on oily skins as it is meant as an age defense product and is therefore quite a moisturising feeling cream. I would definitely repurchase this and I prefer it to the Mac BB Cream. This BB cream has a thicker k consistency,and more coverage than a bog standard tinted moisturiser. I only neded a touch of concealer but my dark circles are huge. The finish is matte but there are optical diffusers in the product apparently which does give a more natural finish.
You can get it here on the Clinique website and it costs £25
Finding a perfect pump dispenser for liquid facial products
I really hate mess and wastage with facial products like liquid eye makeup remover and toner etc. So I decided to test out my Mac eye makeup remover in one of my pump bottles I use for my nail tech liquids…obviously I washed it in the dishwasher first to remove any chemicals. It works perfectly! Just pop your cotton wool circle onto the top of the pump, push down and the pad is saturated with the liquid but not too much so it is sopping wet. I love this!
You can get them on ebay or I get mine here > Pump Bottles I hope this is handy for you, you can use them for all sorts of things, even nail varnish remover just make sure to label it different to your cleanser bottle!
My teeth!
Holy cow these are some damn white teeth, obsessed! Have had so many people tell me they are going to go to smile studio in London to get them done too, are you going to get it done while it’s £200 discount? Let me know! I’d love to post your before and after pics with mine.
I still have a few more sessions of the whitening at home kit to do too! Wy10 is such an amazing system and am so chuffed and grateful to Dr Chan and http://smilestudiolondon.co.uk/
So what have you been obsessed with???
