Okay, I know I'm a fashion blogger but I do love all things makeup, skincare and beauty too! So I thought why not throw the odd beauty post into my blog as well?! Us girls all like to have a bit of a nose in each others makeup bags and we love to see what products everyone uses so I figured you may be interested in this.
Well that's my routine in pictures, now here's my routine in writing:
1. Apply primer, you can find the one I use here. It's from The Body Shop and costs £12.00.
2. Apply foundation, I use Clinique Superbalanced Makeup in shade Alabaster. You can find it here for £21.50.
3. Then I apply my concealer. I absolutely swear by this concealer and it's the best I have ever used so I highly recommend it. It's from The Body Shop, and I use shade 01, you can find this product here for £9.00.
4. To give my face a matte finish I apply my Pressed Face Powder which is also from The Body Shop, I use shade 04. You can find this here for £12.50.
5. Here I have used a bronzer for my cheeks but I will sometimes use a blush. I use Natural Collection Bronzing Pearls in shade Sahara Sun. You can find this product here for £1.99.
6. Onto my eyes; firstly I apply my eye shadow. The one I use is really old, it's by Lancome and I tend to just use the bronze shade. I have found you a similar product by Lancome which you can find here for £17.00.
7. I then apply my liquid eye liner, which I absolutely hate doing because I can never get both eyes exactly the same! The one I use is by Collection 2000 and you can find it here for £2.99.
8. I then apply my mascara to my top and bottom lashes, the one I use is from The Body Shop and you can find it here for £10.00.
9. Finally, I always add a bit of colour to my lips. Today I have used my favourite lipstick which is by Benefit in shade Do Tell. You can find it here for £14.00.
Well that concludes my daily makeup routine! I hope you found it an interesting read, and please let me know if you think I should carry on doing the odd beauty post. I do love to hear your feedback. One last thing, just so you all know, NONE of these photos are edited because I wanted you to see the true effect of the products I use x

thank you xx
DeleteI've never tried benefit lipstick before, would you recommend it as it is quite expensive? :') ♥
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely!! I have 2 and they are both amazing, the colour lasts really well. I never need to re-apply it through the day, I just add lip balm to keep my lips moist but the colour stays in place itself <3
DeleteYour make up looks lovely! Most specifically the lipstick, I feel to get myself a Benefit lipstick now. :P
ReplyDeleteThank you :) yes, do it!! xx
Deletei love clinique!

Comments on my blog like this literally make my day, you are so sweet! Thank you so much. I appreciate ever single view that I get <3
DeleteLooking lovely! I love your make-up, it's natural but still super pretty :)
ReplyDeleteWhat's the Body Shop primer like?
Jesss xo
Thank you!! It's really good, it makes my makeup stay on a lot longer and generally gives it a nicer finish! I got the 'matte' one because my skin can be oily but there is also one for dryer skin that moisturise's at the same time <3
Deleteyour make up looks beautiful xxx

Thank you!!<3
DeleteIt was such a nice way to present the whole routine - great idea! Love the face with the make-up on, but also think you look beautiful without any. :) x
ReplyDeleteThank you! Aw that's so lovely but I don't think I am haha <3
Deleteyou look gorgeous! love the post idea! xxx
ReplyDeleteThank you!! I wasn't sure if people would like it, but I think I'm going to do the odd beauty post as well as fashion from now on xxx
DeleteI love your blog :) and the way you do your makeup is so pretty! would you recommend the mascara? xo
ReplyDeleteThank you! I would definitely recommend it, the only thing I would advise is that you make sure there isn't too much product on the brush when you apply it, because the brush is quite small. To get the full effect of this mascara you need to apply it in layers rather than one big clump if that makes any sense at all? <3
Deletelove the look! i'm glad i stumbled onto this post because i adore that lippy shade and i've been looking for a better concealer...might check them out!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yes I definitely recommend the concealer it gives such good coverage xx

Deleteyou have GORGEOUS skin, luckkkkkkkkyyyyyyyyyy!! love your blog too!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteThank you so much! My face is so pale compared to the rest of my body though :( I hate that!! I use a great exfoliator called 'seaweed pore cleansing facial exfoliator' (also from the body shop) its really good, and I've had such clear skin since I started using it *touch wood* <3
DeleteYou look so beautiful. I know I hate it when people tell me, but you really don't need foundation! xx
ReplyDeleteYou're so sweet! I try not to wear it over summer because my skin isn't so pale and I like to let it breath but now my summer glow has disappeared I find myself wearing it more often! <3
Deletewow, looks completely flawless. wonderful job :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm so glad I shared my makeup routine, I've had such a good response. I'll definitely do more beauty posts from now on <3
DeleteYou literally do not need foundation! You look gorgeous before and after!

Aw you're so lovely!! Thank you, I just feel like I need it to add some colour to my face, it's so pale haha xxx
DeleteI was wondering if you did anything to your eyebrows? Your eyebrows look a bit different in the before and after pictures or if it's just the camera angle?
ReplyDeleteLooking absolutely lovely!

Hey, thank you!! I actually just used an eyebrow brush to make them tidy but I didn't use a pencil on this occasion. The only thing I can think is that there was some colour left in the brush from a previous use :-) xxx
DeleteYou look so pretty! Love your makeup <3
