Moisturizers -Estee Lauder - DayWear Plus - Multi Protection Anti-Oxidant Creme SPF 15 for Dry Skin
EmilyKate123 12/29/2011 10:52:00 AM
My "go to" moisturizer! I use this every morning before I put on my foundation, and it gives my skin more radiance. Especially in Winter, my skin gets dry, and this smooths over my skin and ensures that my foundation application is easy. It has that "fresh" fragrance that immediately makes you feel as though your putting something good on your face!! It is a pick me up for my skin, instantly making me feel so much more confident! Love it, a definate reccommend.

Liquid -Bourjois - 10hr Sleep Effect
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 9:48:00 AM
A really lovely dewy foundation. Before I was hooked on Vitalumiere Aqua, I used this, and it gave my skin a really glowing effect. It was just a light coverage foundation, so if you're wanting a full coverage foundation, then this isn't for you, but it does even out the skintone and make your skin look a lot more healthy. It doesn't break me out, even though it has a fragrance (which is lovely and fresh smelling) and it is enriched with vitamins which is great as it is good for your skin! It is just average packaging, not the most chic looking but that doesn't really matter to me, as long as the inside is good!! I would buy this again as it is a really beautiful foundation for a good price, I think all Bourjois foundations are absolutely fab!

Lipstick -MAC - speed dial cremesheen
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 9:34:00 AM
Not one of my favourites, I really like moisturising lipsticks and I feel like this doesn't really achieve that. It sits on my lips and doesn't really look natural. On the plus side, it does taste lovely, sweet and sugary and the packaging is the usual sleek MAC lipstick. I wouldn't really call it a Cremesheen.

Eye Shadow -BeneFit Cosmetics - Creaseless Cream Shadow/Liner in R.S.V.P.
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 9:26:00 AM
Bought this in Debenhams sale a couple of months ago, a really good eyeshadow that adds a gorgeous shimmer to your eyes without looking overtly dolled up. Application is a bit tricky but if you use a brush and move it over in the pot then it should come out easier. Such a cute little pot too! I love how Benefit is so kitch and retro. A really lovely colour and the name is right, it doesn't crease. It cannot also be used as a base, I sometimes put sin over the top from UD to intensify the look. I think i got it for around £8 in the sale, and it was a good quality product worth that amount. It is in a really good quality glass container that is sturdy and looks expensive!

Fragrances -Vera Wang - Princess
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 9:12:00 AM
Not really my favourite perfume, I find it is a bit too sickly for my personal taste and quite heavy, the packaging is really pretty and looks really delicate on my desk. I will not be buying this again but I don't think it is the worst perfume in the world, but for me, it's not the best. Just an average perfume for me

Lipstick -Lancome - L’Absolu Nu Lipstick - all shades
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 9:00:00 AM
This is my favourite lipstick of all time! Seriously creamy, if my French is correct, l'absolu nu means the absolute bare, and it's correct, it gives a natural tint to your lips but it still looks really luxurious and tastes like Lancome's trademark rose fragrance. The packaging is ultra chic, a black case with magnets to hold the case and the bullet together. It is really moisturising and feels great, the colours are beautiful pinks and neutrals that look perfect on fair and olive skin colours!

Eye Shadow -Urban Decay - Naked Palette
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 8:39:00 AM
Such a beautiful palette! The colours are all neutral but in no way does that mean that they are boring! They are all really varied in colour but have a really velvety texture. For a day time look I use sin all over the lid and buck in the crease and a night time look is easily achievable using the darker colours. This shows that they are very flexible in what you use them for. It is something I use everyday! A perfect palette for a really good price! - It works out as about £3 per eye shadow which is good for the quality of the shadows! I have been using it everyday for about 4 months and so far I haven't even hit the pan! A really recommended product, worth the money!

Liquid -Chanel - Vitalumiere Aqua
EmilyKate123 12/28/2011 8:23:00 AM
Absolutely love this foundation! Gives a natural yet flawless look that evens the skin tone. Perfect for dry to combination skin that glides over any dry spots without flaking. Even though it is an expensive product, it is well worth the money as it lasts a good amount of time. You will need a concealer if you have any blemishes with this as it is a light foundation and doesn't cover everything but if you're looking for a natural finish that is semi-matte then this would be great for you.
