Weekly makeup additions #12

This week there's a mixture of new, old and those that have slipped away from +Urban Decay Cosmetics , +BECCA Cosmetics and By Terry.

Weekly makeup additions #11

This week I'm keeping things simple yet fresh in preparation for those hotter days where in all honesty I can't be bothered to be mixing up a ridiculous amount of products.

Max Factor Creme Puff Blush \ Review and swatch

When I was younger I used to use Max Factor products to a ridiculous level on an even playing field with Benefit, but as I started experimenting with an rainbow of brands it seems to have slipped off my radar.  That is, until recently found myself in Boots, one of those I need three things, come out with 10 moments... when on the end of an isle was a new launch from Max Factor, Creme Puff Blush.  With 6 shades on offer, after a heavy swatching session, I picked up Seductive Pink, a beautiful popping pink.

Becca : Beach Tint Shimmer Soufflé : Lychee/Opal

On a recent Sephora order, it's fair to say things got a bit out of hand, whoopsies, but I think this could be one of my most favourite things from the whole thing.  Becca is a brand which I've never tried before but have always been extremely tempted, alas, I caved and added to the blusher collection, dang it we only have two cheeks to apply them all!

Becca, Beach Tint Shimmer Soufflé in Lychee/Opal, gee freaking whizz, is actually my new favourite blush product.  It is incredibly light, silky, pigmented which hides the most subtle shimmer which only comes out to play when the sun/light is out and about.  That youthful glow, yeah be prepared to wave at it on that face of yours...

Soap & Glory give us a Peach Party for our cheeks

Soap & Glory have got a fair few makeup gems in the mix which I only seem to be discovering.  One of these is Peach Party, a 'Multi-Colour Blush Brick'.

From first impressions this reminds me of the recent Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Apricot...despite looking over shimmery, give this its chance and you shall be dazzled.

Oh Gosh have you seen this?

If you take a step behind my cringy title, you shall see that +Gosh Cosmetics Official really are a strong contender with their blush, in the shade Flower Power (43).

At first, I was as you are probably thinking, 'how pink?!' however, trust me when I say this has been in my everyday makeup bag for a good while now, we're talking a long time, and I haven't been rocking the clown look, not that I know of anyway...

March Favourites : 2014 edition

March seems to have absolutely flown by this year, but it's not gone so quickly that I'm not able to share some little stunners I've found along the way ...

Let's get in a Floral Fantasy with MAC...

MAC recently released their A Fantasy of Flowers, a mineralized makeup collection for SS14, of course, the name instantly makes you want it to just warm up already!

Only very recently did I discover MAC makeup, obviously I had heard about it, but with everyone raving I wanted to find my favourites.  Anyway, a long story short, I caved and have now fallen in to a new relationship.  So here is a show and tell session with my spring fling.

Charlotte Tilbury : Cheek to Chic, Love Glow \ The Road Test

I have wrote before about my love for the Charlotte Tilbury makeup collection and one of my favourite pieces has to be the Cheek to Chic, Swish and Pop Blush.  The idea behind these is something genius, the results spectacular, and the colour, just delectable.  

There are two items of makeup which make me particularly excited, lipstick and blushers and Love Glow has just added fuel to my already burning fire.

Mac : Magnetic Nude : At Dusk, swatched and tested

Mac recently released their stunning Magnetic Nude collection and I managed to get my lucky little hands on 'At Dusk Extra Dimension' Blush.

Nars : Orgasm Blusher, road tested!
