New Foundation

Hi Guys,

So I just wanted to share with ye a product I purchased today, now I've heard so much about this product over the last few months, but to be honest I wasn't really interested as the company that make this product usually don't have my shade...however today when I was doing my grocery shopping in Dunne's I passed by the Rimmel stand and of course I stopped and had a look and to my surprise the lightest shade of the Rimmel wake me up foundation actually looked light, usually they are quiet darker then your normal "lightest" shade, so after a few minutes of humming and hawing and will I or won't I, I decided sure why not I'll give it a whirl, its only 6.95 (was on sale) and I'm sure I'll be able to do something with it. So I got home and after removing  all the make up I was wearing earlier and washing my face, I applied it using a stippling brush, and I have to say I love it, the consistency, the way it just glides onto the skin, and to be honest I didn't even have to set it with powder which I usually do, now having said that I didn't leave the house with this foundation on so it could be a completely different story when I do, I may need to put the powder on, but yeah as I say so far loving this product, its a light to medium coverage which I like.

Me with no Make up on eeeeeeeeek yeah I know lol

With the wake me up foundation and then full face of make up

Eyeshadow is YDK from the naked 2 pallette (what else? lol)

Blush is NYC Pink cheek glow, I used tease from the naked 2 on my eyebrows (it somehow works lol) mascara is lancome's hypnose and lips is fashion ave fuchsia liquid lip shine by nyc also and that is it that is my make up look from today :)

Happy Monday everyone :)

Little bit of shopping #2

Hi everybody :)

Hope you're all having a good day :) so yesterday I went and did a little bit more shopping....no more shopping now till I go to Galway, which is in like 4 days haha anyway I just wanted to share a few things that I got...and excuse the pictures, I know they aren't the best I need to work out how to be able to get good shots, if anyone has any advice that would be great...any way onto my little haul.

First Thing I got which I totally fell in love with in Tk Max yesterday is this jewellery box, I literally saw it and  fell in love, but wasn't sure if I should buy it or not as it was 20 euro and did I really need it? at one stage I even put it back and walked away, but I just couldn't leave it behind I just had to have it, I don't actually need a jewellery box so I may use it as make up storage :) its so pretty thought isn't it? (ignore the random dog toy shoe in the background lol)

This is what its like opened, and just as I was taking the shot Albi decided he wanted to check it out, but I thought it was a cute pic anyway so still gonna upload it

What I got next I was very excited about, because as I've said in a previous post I have wanted this for ages, and didn't think I needed but how wrong was I, how have I not had this in my life for the past few months lol I love it, its the Naked 2 Pallette yay its soooooooo nice.... and the colours are amazing so between this and the original Naked pallette I will never need to buy a neutral eyeshadow again.

And again Albi had to get in on the action ( I was originally taking the pictures outside trying to get good light) but yeah he wanted a closer look at the eye shadows apparently.

Everything else I bought was just some make up bits and nail polish, I got two things from NYC I got two mosaic face powders, All over bronze glow and  Pink cheek glow, I have the peach glow already and I love it so decided to give these two a whirl and I'm wearing them today and so far love them, the bronzer does need to be put on with a light touch tho as it can be a bit "muddy" but if blended out, looks great. Finally I got two catrice nail polishes, one which I saw on http://beautynutjk.blogspot.ie/ and thought it was so pretty its 420 Dirty Berry and the other is 770 Put lavender on agenda which I saw in the shop and thought was really nice, I got these for half price too, as they are having some sale of catrice products...also when I got home I realised that put lavender on agenda is nearly an exact dupe for OPI's parlez-vous OPI? and the final thing I got is eye primer by essence I love stage eye shadow base, still not sure what I think of this, I have it on today so time will tell...I mean I love my urban decay primer potion but I'm nearly all out and was just looking for a cheaper alternative.....

So that is it, that is everything I bought yesterday, just a wee small haul.......

thanks for reading

Much love

Oh Oh lol I feel a spending spree coming on

Ok so about 2 or 3 years ago I was majorly obsessed with makeup, it was my go too thing at the time, I bought everything from the expensive to the really cheap ie. Mac to Essence and Catrice, I mean the amount of stuff I had was insane, my sister informed me she was never going into a shop that stocked make up or nail polish with me again, it was slightly out of hand I will admit lol but then I got sense and stopped I didn't need that many products in a collection so I put a ban on buying things I either already had or didn't need for example, If I had a pink blusher, I didn't need 2 or 3 or 10 of them ha, and I didn't have to have the same colour nail polish by different company's either......so yeah over the last few years my obsession died down and I only bought the essentials or things I had run out of that I would actually use....yeah till now, I've spent most of last night looking at people's blog's on here and seen so many products that I would love to have and I feel the urge to splurge (which I can't actually afford to do lol) ooopies, I have decided I really would like the Naked 2 pallet also, I have Naked 1 do I really need the second one, I have seen it in the shops and I have swatched it but always walked away, my fav colour that I want is Verve...I don't have any eye shadow that colour, but to buy a whole pallet for just one colour, don't get me wrong the other colours are also fab but do I really need them...I think my answer is yes I do, and to be honest the only thing stopping me from running out today and buying it is that the nearest place to buy it to me is a half an hours drive on a normal day but on a August bank holiday Saturday it could take me most of an hour just to get there and then trying to find parking, but its oh so tempting....ah what to do what to do ????? maybe I could convince my sister to come with me tomorrow when she's off work hehehe without telling her why I'm going there of course, I did the same thing when I was buying the Naked 1 pallet. If I end up getting it I will do a post with swatches and what I think :)


much love
