Review: Beautyuk Matte-FX Foundation

Hellooo!
My skin has been breaking out a lot and been red and patchy in places. So I wanted to cover them up but my foundations just don't seem to be working!? I wanted a product that would reduce the look of pores and keep my skin matte and smooth without breaking me out. So I searched all of my stores high and low to find the perfect foundation. But I just couldn't find the right one! When I used the testers they didn't match my skin tone and they weren't a matte finish. But then finally I found the product I have been looking for...


This product is the Beautyuk Matte-FX Foundation in shade 01 Ivory. I have pale skin so I have to go for the lightest shades. The description on the bottle says "Effortlessly helps control shine and gives skin a soft matte finish for up to 12 hours!" Guess what!? It does just that!

The bottle its self is plastic which means that it can not smash if you drop it. Also if you travel a lot you can use it on the go. It is a small product but lasts a long time. It has no pump which some people do not like, personally I do not mind. I know this sounds really strange but it smells really good to. (Yes I'm wired...) The lid twists open which is great if you have it in your bag as it will not just open by itself, and when it locks it makes a click sound. Which is great to know it is on, and won't come of.


You don't have to put loads of the product on as it is very blend able and easy to build up. I like the fact that it is very matte, I have oily skin which really helps throughout the day! I would say the foundation does last for most of the day. Also I notice that with some foundations when you open them half of the product is on the lid, but how did it get there? With this product there is none!

If you are interested you can purchase this product from Superdrug for only £2.99

See you soon, Erin xoxo

Review: Sunkissed Makeup Pallette.

Hello,
Today I am going to be sharing with you a review. Yay! On the Sunkissed makeup palette. Which is an amazing palette that you should defiantly go out and buy. The colours in here are fantastic and it is a really easy way to travel with. It has- A mirror, eye liner, mascara, bronzer, 3 lip glosses in- pink, coral, brown, 6 eye shadows- 5 brown, 1 white/creamy colour, blusher, sponge, lip brush, eyeshadow brush, blusher brush and finally lip pencil.

The cover is really protective so it wont smash easily if you drop it. It is really thick so you know that you are going to get a little last out of all of the products. It has a push button to open the palette and the front and back of it has a mirror type cover.
Inside of the palette is alot of Makeup looks to do. You can do an everyday look. A night look, a day look. A smokey eye! It has 2 comportment's one on the top that slides open to revel what is at the bottom. The slides can easily break so do not open them to quick. All of the products look really fun to use and look like a bronzed kind of palette. WARNING- none of the colours are matte they are all shimmer which puts alot of people of but I like it either way.

That is it for Today, I had loads of fun doing this. Yay for the sun! It makes the pictures alot more clearer than usual. Sorry about the mess on the palette I guess I forgot to clean it, but we just ignored that didn't we? Hehe. See you soon, Erin xoxo

Selena Gomez Come And Get It Hair And Makeup Tutorial.

Hello,
I recently discovered that Selena Gomez brought out a new song, I was so existed that I had to watch the Video. I love Selena she is always pretty and doesn't over do her Makeup. I was very surprised by the whole Music Video and happy that I could do a post about her. Lets begin...


Makeup:
Selena always has a good complexion she never has a pimple in sight so to hide that you should use a good Concealer that has an amazing amount of coverage and that lasts a while. For Foundation you want to use one that you can trust that isn't blotchy and that will give you a beautiful complexion. Making sure that you don't look like a BIG grease ball set it in with some Powder. Grab some Bronzer and apply it. I have recently been applying Bronzer in the 3 Method on my face. Next use a Primer to keep your Shadow on for longer and to remove the Creases. Curl Lashes. Fill in Eyebrows. Apply tape from the end corner of your Eye to near your Eye brow this will make your Eyeshadow sharp and have no mistakes. Get a dark brown Matte eye shadow apply to lash line and on to the tape making a winged cat eye. Apply a shimmery brown shadow on the rest of your lid. Blend it all in then remove the tape. Put a shimmery white shadow in the inner corner of your eye to add sparkle and to make your eyes look a lot more bigger. Using the first colour brown we used drag this half under the eye. Apply Eyeliner to the tightline and waterline. Put Mascara on then false Lashes (I love the ones Selena is wearing). Put a nude lipstick on your lips for extra last and hold. Then apply a nude lipgloss to, add a little shine to them lips. You are now done.

Hair: Selena has Beach wavy Hair. So to achieve this you will need:
1. Sea Salt Spray.
2. Heat Protectant.
3. Curling Wand.
4. Hairspray.
Firstly apply Sea Salt to your Hair don't apply to much because it wont end up nice...Then scrunch up your Hair to make it go a little wavy. Apply some Heat protectant you should always use heat protectant in your Hair before you use and heat on it anyways. If you don't then this can damage your Hair. Grab your Curling Wand and put it on the highest setting on there. Always wear a glove I have burnt my self many times (It hurts) You probably have yourself so always wear a glove. We are trying to achieve beachy waves so grab a little finger amount size of Hair and wrap it around the curling wand leave it on for round about 5-10 seconds and then remove. You should achieve a a wave. Repeat this process then your hair should be done in round about 20-30 Minutes depending on what Hair type you have. Once you have done all of your Hair apply a long lasting Hair spray all over your Hair. You are now done and have completed the whole Selena Gomez Come and get it look.

That's it for Today! A long post I know, but I had so much fun writing it. I love Selena Gomez I think she is so pretty and again has a beautiful complexion. I will see you all again soon. Erin xoxo

Review: Accessorize Makeup Palette.

Hi everyone! Today I am going to be sharing with you a Review on a Palette I have recently been loving which is the Accessorize Makeup palette. Enjoy!


This palette is from Superdrug. I'm not sure how much it is but I will have a link down below so you can get it for cheaper. It comes with 12 AMAZING colours- 1 Matte brown, 4 Shimmery browns, 1 Shimmery Pink,
1 Shimmery Black, 1 Matte purple, 1 Shimmery purple, 1 Shimmery green, 1 Shimmery blue, Lastly 1 Matte Cream/White colour. These colours are really good because you have a range to choose from, So one night you could go Neutral colours next night you could go with Bright colours. It is handy to Travel with as it is Sleek and Thin not like some of the other palettes which are like boots! That you cant fit into your Suitcase/Luggage. When you apply the selected Colour on to your Eye it will come out not so bright so if you want a brighter colour on you Eyes you will have to build it up to make the colour that you would like on your Eyes. I like to go with the browns and do a sorta Smokey Eye. You can achieve a Smokey Eye with this palette easily.

I hope you all enjoyed Today's post will you be buying this Palette or do you already own one? What do you think of this palette leave it in the comments below or on Twitter links below. See you soon beauty's. Erin xoxo
