My Everyday Make Up


I was going through my past blog posts and realised I had not made a post about the makeup I wear everyday. I've kind of mentioned it in routine posts but I've never actually dedicated a post to the make up I wear everyday or most days as I don't wear make up everyday.

With my everyday make up I just like to keep it simple and natural but still feel a little bit prettier than I feel without make up.

After I've put on my micellar water and moisturised it's time to start my make up. The first thing I use (sometimes) is foundation. I only use foundation for when my face is feeling gross and it has spots on it. I use the Miss Sporty So Matte Perfect Stay foundation in the shade 001 Ivory. It's kind of a medium coverage but it works for me and it's not too heavy on the face.


Next I put on concealer for my dark circles under my eyes and any spots and blemishes remaining on my face after foundation. I love using the Collection Lasting Perfection concealer in the shade Fair 1 as I feel like it does the job perfect and brightens under my eyes. I normally blend in the concealer with a kabuki as it's great for blending.


I then put on some powder with a kabuki brush just to set in my foundation and concealer. It also just blends everything to go to give me a nice good base. As most of you know as I've mentioned this in I don't know how many posts but I use the Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder in the shade 001 transparent as it's just the perfect powder. Sometimes I just use concealer and powder and skip foundation because I love this so much.


Next I do not contour, mostly because I'm not an expert so I just go straight in with blush. I use the W7 Cheeky Chaps Multi Blush in the shade Popsicle as it also works with a highlight and gives my cheek a natural glow to them.


The next step I do is eyeshadow now I just keep it natural by using nude colours. I use the W7 The Nudes Compact Eye shadow Palette as it's such a good quality eyeshadow for a cheap price. First I use the darkest shade of brown on the base of my eyelid. then the lighter brown over that then finally I use the nude shade over that. I don't normally use the white colour as I don't know where I'd put it.



I then put on my mascara just to make my eye lashes stand out. I use my favourite mascara which is the Collection Colour Lash All Day Wear Colour Mascara in the shade 2 Black and I just love it. It doesn't smudge and just has a more natural look about it.


Finally I just put on my Vaseline and lipstick to finish the look. I use the MUA Matte lipstick as it's just perfect for a natural lip. It's kind of a natural nude colour.


That's all I do for my everyday make up. I hope you enjoyed this post and I'll be back tomorrow with another post.

My Future Plans

Image
Planning for the future is probably one of the most scariest things. Especially when you have an end goal but have no idea how to achieve that goal. Of course many things can go wrong and you're kind of terrified to take that risk. That's how I'm feeling right now. I have the whole Christmas and New Year off which is essentially going to be spent planning what I'm going to do next. I want to move out of my mum's house by February. I want to get a job or an internship which is relevant to my degree. As you can probably tell, these are some major changes for me and I'm terrified but also kind of excited. I'm itching to start planning and I have spent several hours looking at flats to rents these past few months. Soon though it's all going to be real. I know it's going to be scary and I probably have no idea what I'm doing but at the same time, I can't wait for it all to happen. Life is about taking chances after all and sooner or later I...

30 Things To Do Before I'm 30

Image
I thought I would do one of those posts where I talk about things I want to do in the future and why not do a 30 things I want do before I'm 30 so I have about nine years to achieve these thirty goals for myself. It's also something I could look back on when I am thirty years old to see if I actually have achieved any of these things. Hopefully I will but we'll have to wait and see in nine years time. 1. Get my degree Now this is probably an obvious one as I'm in my third year of university but honestly after two years of doing university it would be nice if next year I could have a degree. I also thought I'd start this list with something I could definitely achieve (fingers crossed) before I'm thirty years old. 2. Visit Harry Potter Studio Tour/Harry Potter World/Both As I am a massive Harry Potter fan I would actually like to visit the studio tours in London or visit Harry Potter world in Walt Disney World because they look absolutely amazing and wo...

Chapter Eleven

Image
I feel like I say this at the start of every month but I can't believe how quickly October went. It felt like it was a complete blur and now we are in November. Just two more months left of 2024 which feels crazy to me cause I've done so much this year that this year has honestly been the best year for me. This month, I don't really have much planned. I actually finished my Christmas shopping a couple of days ago so I don't have any Christmas shopping to do this month which is great cause it means I can save a bit of money this month. I think I'm going to Manchester to enjoy the Christmas markets at the end of the month which I'm excited about. Plus I'm going to see the fireworks on bonfire night. Other than that, I don't really have much planned for this month. November is definitely a chill month for me especially when I've finished my christmas shopping at the end of October, it's usually a relaxing month for me. So yeah, I don't have anyt...
