FACE OF THE DAY #9




Hi guys! I know I haven't posted in what feels like donkey's years but I have been so busy with sixth form, driving lessons etc. I finally have some spare time so I thought I'd do a little FOTD post to get back into the blogging spirit.

Firstly, I used MAC Strobe Cream as a primer/moisturiser which is absolutely amazing. I got it for my birthday and haven't stopped using it since! Then I go onto foundation, Vichy Dermablend which is an old favourite of mine although it is too dark for me in the winter months. Next up is MAC Prolong Wear Concealer which is hands down the best concealer I've ever used (big statement I know!) it does have a tendency to crease so I do set it with the Soap & Glory Kick Ass Powder. For bronzer, I am still in love with the Seventeen Cream Bronzer - it's gorgeous. For brows I use the MAC Omega Eye Shadow which is perfect for all the blondies out there. After prepping my eyes with the MAC Paint Pot in Painterly, I move onto the star of the show which is the Too Faced Chocolate Bar Palette which is stunning!!! It smells like chocolate, tastes like chocolate (long story)! The shadows are so pigmented and creamy. Basically, if you're looking for a new neutrals palette, this is your gal! I used Hazelnut and Crème Brulee (the two bottom left shades) for a gorgeous bronzey eye. I finished the eyes with lashings of the Guerlain Maxi Lash Mascara, I need the full size version of this but at £20 odd a pop I don't know if I can. For the lips, I patted in Sleek's Barely There Lip Stick.

That's all from me today, hopefully I will be able to keep up a blogging schedule this time!

  3. You look amazing! I really need to try MAC strobe cream, I know they sell a smaller 'travel' size so I might try that first (maybe a sneaky online purchase tonight....) and I love omega! Your eyelashes look SO long and thick too, you'll have to treat yourself to it nearer christmas :) xx

    1. Thanks rach! It is amazing, I've heard the travel size is the same price as the L'Oreal lumi primer but has more in! I definitely will - perhaps as I treat after mocks? ;) xxx

  4. Absolutely beautiful, really natural looking! I really want to get the MAC paintpot in painterly, would you recommend it as a general eyeshadow base or is there another colour you have tried that you prefer? I am unsure wither to get "painterly" or "bare studies", great post anyway :)
